The Understated Dragon Lord

Chapter 306 Taking Care of Business

Seeing this country bumpkin's carefree demeanor, Brittany realized he wasn't about to volunteer his resignation, nor was he likely to do any work. She was in a bind and resorted to scolding.

"You... you’d better complete this task! You could try Zen Byte; Jennifer has connections with a manufacturing plant!" Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.

"Jennifer? Don't you have a good relationship with her? Weren’t you two teaming up against me?"

"So what if we did? You country hick, you deserve to be bullied!"

"How would you know unless you've tried my... thing?"

"Ugh! Keep talking like that and I'll staple your mouth shut!"

With that, Brittany grabbed the stapler from the desk and snapped it a couple of times to emphasize her point.

"You’re sending me to see Jennifer, did you already set me up? If I show up at her office door, not only will I be turned away, but she might also take the chance to bully me?"

"Country boy, I thought you were so capable? So amazing? Are you telling me you can't handle one woman?"

Of course, Brittany had everything planned with Jennifer beforehand; she wanted Jennifer to put this hick in his place!

What Jennifer might do to Daniel wasn’t Brittany’s concern—she was only interested in results. She expected Daniel to sort things out with Jennifer within three days and secure the manufacturing plant. If he failed, she'd report him to Jessica, claiming that keeping this useless bumpkin was a waste of company resources. He should be fired, she thought.

And so, Brittany and Jennifer made a deal to ensure Daniel wouldn't secure Jennifer’s manufacturing plant within the given deadline.

Daniel eyed the woman setting a trap for him.

"You're handing Jennifer over to me, telling me to deal with her. Do you even realize what you're doing? Although she's not as beautiful as Jessica, she's on par with you. At least, you two can both be called beauties. You’re not worried I might win her over while trying to secure her factory?"

"You? A country bumpkin like you? Don't make me laugh! Jennifer is a CEO with a ton of men after her. What are you compared to them?"

"Right, but she's still single. What does that tell you? Isn't that a clear sign she's waiting for someone like me to chase her?"

"Shameless! Fool! You think you can win Jennifer over? That's downright delusional!"

"Why would I chase her? I want her to chase after me and then reject her!"

During Daniel's first encounter with Jennifer, he ended up being humiliated by her, and he hadn't forgotten it. He might not be petty, but he still wanted his little revenge. His plan for payback was simple: to make Jennifer fall for him, chase him, and then reject her.

Women like Jennifer, who are self-absorbed and opportunistic, need to be put in their place, to be taught that their actions have consequences. The price to pay is her falling head over heels for Daniel, only to never have him.
