Chapter 126 No Bullying Daniel 

Brittany was taken aback, unsure of how to handle this new information. Daniel’s 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. “I was thinking exactly that–how can that outfit be so beautifully matched? So classy, so stylish? It turns out to be Jessica’s choice, of course! Jessica has the best taste, unparalleled. 

It’s just a waste on him, on this country boy. It can even be called a destruction of beauty; it’s a disaster!” 

“Brittany, if you bully Daniel again, I’ll dock your bonus!” 

“Jessica, why do you always side with him?” 

“Do you have a problem with that?” 

“I… I have no complaints.” 

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 ‘slut assistant‘ out of The Matthews Organization and away from Jessica. 

That’s when Andrew made his entrance. He was clad in a crisp white Armani suit with gleaming hair and a million–dollar Rolex gold watch wrapped around his wrist–a glimpse was enough to identify him as a wealthy scion. 

“Hi, Jessica!” 

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. 

“Looks like you want to shake hands? Let me do it for you!” 

Daniel grasped Andrew’s hand in a friendly and enthusiastic shake. Rebuffed by Jessica, Andrew was already feeling irritable. Unexpectedly, Daniel, the so–called country boy, dared to shake his hand? 

Andrew worked out regularly at the gym, lifting weights. He could hoist a 100–pound barbell with one 

hand, so his arms were quite strong. Since Daniel had voluntarily reached out, Andrew decided to teach 

him a lesson – to make Daniel understand that he shouldn’t 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 Daniel’s hand and cause him pain. 

Feeling Andrew’s strength, Daniel chuckled. “Whoa, Andrew, you sure are enthusiastic! I appreciate it, but 

I can’t let you outdo me!” 

As Daniel applied a little of his own strength, a scream escaped Andrew. 

“Ouch! Let go, damn it, you’re hurting me! You country bumpkin, do you have any manners at all? You’re supposed to shake hands with me!”

2/2 

Not one to prolong another’s discomfort, Daniel quickly let go, explaining with an innocent smile. 

“Sorry 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.” 

“You 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!” 

Andrew’s tirade against Daniel provoked Jessica’s displeasure. She stepped forward to defend him. 

“Andrew, 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 isn’t over!”
