Chapter 126
The Understated Dragon Lord
Chapter 126 No Bullying Daniel
Brittany was taken aback, unsure of how to handle this new information. Danielâs clothes were picked out by Jessica? Brittany had just been mocking the fashion sense as that of a country bumpkin?
Coming to her senses, Brittany quickly tried to backtrack. âI was thinking exactly thatâhow can that outfit be so beautifully matched? So classy, so stylish? It turns out to be Jessicaâs choice, of course! Jessica has the best taste, unparalleled.
Itâs just a waste on him, on this country boy. It can even be called a destruction of beauty; itâs a disaster!â
âBrittany, if you bully Daniel again, Iâll dock your bonus!â
âJessica, why do you always side with him?â
âDo you have a problem with that?â
âI⦠I have no complaints.â
Brittany fell silent. It seemed every time there was an issue between her and Daniel, Jessica would side
with him. This thought alone infuriated Brittany! She was determined to drive this âslut assistantâ out of The Matthews Organization and away from Jessica.
Thatâs when Andrew made his entrance. He was clad in a crisp white Armani suit with gleaming hair and a millionâdollar Rolex gold watch wrapped around his wristâa glimpse was enough to identify him as a wealthy scion.
âHi, Jessica!â
Andrew greeted her and extended his hand for a handshake. Jessica, however, did not respond, leaving
Andrew slightly embarrassed as he hesitated to retract his hand.
âLooks like you want to shake hands? Let me do it for you!â
Daniel grasped Andrewâs hand in a friendly and enthusiastic shake. Rebuffed by Jessica, Andrew was already feeling irritable. Unexpectedly, Daniel, the soâcalled country boy, dared to shake his hand?
Andrew worked out regularly at the gym, lifting weights. He could hoist a 100âpound barbell with one
hand, so his arms were quite strong. Since Daniel had voluntarily reached out, Andrew decided to teach
him a lesson â to make Daniel understand that he shouldnât mess with Andrew.
As their hands met, Daniel behaved properly, but Andrew had more than a handshake in mind. He immediately increased his grip, attempting to crush Danielâs hand and cause him pain.
Feeling Andrewâs strength, Daniel chuckled. âWhoa, Andrew, you sure are enthusiastic! I appreciate it, but
I canât let you outdo me!â
As Daniel applied a little of his own strength, a scream escaped Andrew.
âOuch! Let go, damn it, youâre hurting me! You country bumpkin, do you have any manners at all? Youâre supposed to shake hands with me!â

2/2
Not one to prolong anotherâs discomfort, Daniel quickly let go, explaining with an innocent smile.
âSorry about that, Andrew! Growing up in the country, we may have many flaws, but we are known for our strength. Where I come from, the firmer your grip, the more polite you are when shaking hands.â
âYou country bumpkin, what an embarrassment! Do you think this place is meant for someone like you? A jerk like you should be thrown out by security!â
Andrewâs tirade against Daniel provoked Jessicaâs displeasure. She stepped forward to defend him.
âAndrew, show some respect! Daniel is my assistant; disrespecting him is disrespecting me. You insulted
Daniel for no reason; you owe him an apology. If not, this isnât over!â
