Chapter 169

Daniel looked at her cute expression and his cold face softened a little. He poured a glass of water and handed it to her. “No. Under normal circumstances, the year-end bonus given by Mr. Kaur will be doubled.”

Alice had a look of disbelief on her face. “How is that possible? His subordinate’s bullying obviously affects his reputation. How could he not punish you?”

“It’s his honor to let you bully others with his power,” Daniel said as he leaned over and pressed his forehead against hers.

He looked serious as if he was using his head to measure Alice’s temperature.

Alice’s back stiffened at the sudden approach of his fresh breath. She subconsciously leaned back, but a hand suddenly appeared on her waist and firmly grabbed her slender waist.

“Don’t move. I’m measuring your temperature.” She heard Daniel’s mellow voice.

“Hmm… Isn’t there a thermometer?” Alice pointed weakly at the electronic thermometer beside her.

However, Daniel looked at her and spouted nonsense without changing his expression. “There’s a deviation in the electronic measurement. The human body’s is more accurate.”

“Ahem… I don’t know about that. Don’t lie to me.” After saying that, Alice wanted to push him away.

Daniel frowned slightly and hugged her even tighter. The tip of his nose even touched the tip of hers.

“Your face is red, and your temperature has suddenly risen. It’s not normal!”

Alice was speechless.

She was being hugged like this to test her body temperature. How could her face not turn red and her body temperature not rise?

Why did it feel like Daniel’s species and language ability had changed after he went overseas?

When Dax came over to knock on the door, Daniel let go of Alice in all seriousness. He coldly gestured for Dax to scram immediately after Dax finished speaking.

Dax also wanted to get lost, but this matter was a little tricky. He touched his nose and said with a complicated expression, “Daniel, Miss Hand needs to discuss the company’s related report with you.

It’s a little urgent!”

Daniel’s expression darkened.

“Daniel, go back to work first…” Alice patted the back of his hand.

Daniel didn’t say anything. He just stood there quietly and looked at his wife.

Alice noticed that Dax had been looking at her for help. She tugged at Daniel’s sleeve. “Hurry up and go. Don’t delay your work. Otherwise, Mr. Kaur will deduct your salary. That will be very troublesome!”

Daniel reached out and gently picked up a strand of hair by her ear. His tone was slightly light. “Are you worried about me?”

Well…

Dax was still there. Was it really appropriate to discuss this?

Did Daniel have to act like this now?

Dax already had a hopeless expression on his face. He roared in his heart, “Mr. Kaur, please don’t stay here and work first, okay?”

Just as Alice was thinking about how to answer Daniel, he suddenly leaned forward and wrapped his arms around her slender waist. He gently buried his head in the crook of her neck…

Alice was stunned.

Dax was shocked and only wanted to leave!

“I’ll be there soon!” After Daniel said that, Alice saw him looking at Dax with a gloomy expression. The two of them left one after another.

Watching the door close, Alice rubbed her temples. Divorce, they must get a divorce!

In the special lounge at the end of the corridor, Daniel turned on the computer that was specially used for videoconferencing.

Vivian’s face was filled with resentment. “Daniel, you’re really too much! Without you around, I can’t support this project!”

Chapter 169 Daniel said expressionlessly, “Then you can just give up.”

Vivian immediately became excited when she heard this. She placed her hands on the table and said, “Have you forgotten how much money the Kaur family and the Hand family spent on this project? If you want to give it up now, how many losses will the two companies face?”

Daniel did not respond.

Vivian became even angrier. “I can understand that you went back to visit your wife, but as businessmen, we have a lot of responsibilities! One wrong decision of ours will destroy thousands of families, okay?

“Daniel, if you don’t care about the Kaur family’s share price and future, continue to stay with your wife!”
