Janet suddenly stood up from his lap. She looked at his face, which had softened a lot from his usual cold expression. She didn"t know how to tell him what was on her mind, or what she should ask him first.
Seeing Janet"s strange behavior, Daniel was wondering what had happened to her.
"What do you want to ask me? Go ahead!"
He reached out his hands, trying to hold her, but she put her hands aside, avoiding his grasp.
"Sabina Fan." She blurted out the name flatly and gazed firmly at Daniel.
Daniel was shocked to hear the name, and his face became pale. Then, he said, "Why are you mentioning her?"
He was pondering how did Janet find out about Sabina.
Looking at Daniel"s expression, Janet thought that what Kate said was right. She asked him, "Why do you want to be with me?"
Daniel stood up from the sofa, and while he frowned, he said, "Jane, has anyone told you anything?"
Janet looked very odd today, and she had surely seen someone before coming to his office, thought Daniel.
"I"m good at nothing, and you are excellent at everything. Why did you choose to be with me in the first place? Is it just because your mother has pushed you to be with me?" She ignored his question and continued to bombard him with her doubts and frustrations.
"Or is it because I"m just another stubborn woman, and you"ll feel happy if you conquer me?"
...
Daniel"s face now became very cold, and he was very angry. He really wanted to find the person who had told all of this bulls.h.i.t to Janet. "My silly sweetheart, I chose to be with you only because I love you. It has nothing to do with any other people."
"Oh, so you like me only because you like dominating me in bed. You just enjoy making me succ.u.mb to your will." She remembered that when they were in bed, Daniel had asked her many times, "Will you stay obedient to me? Will you always listen to me?"
"Tell me, who has instilled all of these ideas and thoughts into your mind?" Daniel asked her in a cold, stern manner. He wasn"t angry with her, but only with the person who had sown the discord between him and Janet.
Janet was very simple-minded, and she was easily trapped by ill-disposed people.
Janet didn"t want to betray Kate, and instead raised her head and looked into Daniel"s eyes, and said, "Please answer my question."
Daniel didn"t want to answer her unreasonable questions, an
Falling from n.o.bility, Zen Luo became a humble slave and served as a human punchbag for his former cousins. Inadvertently, he found a way to refine himself into a weapon and a legend started because of that. With a strong belief in never surrender, he strove for revenges and pursued big dreams. Warriors from various clans contended for hegemony and the world was stirred. Relying on the body that was comparable to a powerful weapon, Zen beat his numerous enemies on his way to the immortality. Would he succeed eventually?
se she was jealous?
"Something that had already pa.s.sed? No. Daniel, you lived with her in your mansion for a week, and there is no explanation for that! You"re fooling me!" Janet wiped her tears with her hands. She shouted at him with anger in her voice.
Daniel had also felt unhappy when Janet had simply across Brian in America. Why couldn"t she ask him about Sabina?
Daniel put his arms around her neck, and said in a hard, stern voice, "Sabina was only in a bad mood, and she wanted to stay at my place for a week. Nothing happened between us." He acknowledged that Sabina had shown regret for not staying with him, but in order to draw a clear line between them, and make Sabina give up on her endeavors, Daniel had called Kate to his place.
That was why Kate was in the same bedroom with him.
"And tell me the real reason why you were with Kate..." Jane blurted out her last question.
Daniel kept silent about this question for a while. In the beginning, he was with Kate because she physically resembled Sabina. But since Jane had appeared in his life, everything had changed. He said, "The real reason was because I wanted to protect you. Because I am in such a high position, there are many people who are against me, and I was worried that you might be hurt by them."
The reason sounded ill-founded, and Janet sneered at him, and said, "But you worry about Kate, did you?"
"No. I don"t care about her. You are my only concern." Kate had known Daniel"s true intention, and Daniel had made it clear to her, but she was still willing to be with him, nonetheless.
