Chapter 300 The Frowning Jessica

The chair indeed had no issue—it was Mason who had the problem. Emily glared at Mason as ifshe was looking at someone completely worthless. "Are you so weak now that you can't even lift achair?"

Mason needed an excuse, any excuse, no matter how illogical. "Who says I can't? I just don't wantto. Why should I do it just because some country boy tells me to? What is he to me?"

Emily extended her hand impatiently. "Give me your hand!"

With a show of reluctance and disbelief, Mason asked, "For what?"

"Just do it!" Emily commanded. "Squeeze my hand with all your might!"

"Why would I want to do that? You're a woman; your strength is so limited compared to mine. If Ireally squeeze, I might just crush your hand."

"Just do it! Why all the talk?"

Emily gave her ultimatum, and Mason could hardly refuse. He squeezed with all his strength, butEmily felt nothing.

"Is that all the strength you have? This is how you are as a man? Let's go to the hospital; I want adoctor to give you a thorough checkup," Emily insisted and dragged Mason away.

Not only did Mason need to visit the hospital, but Emily did too. After all, smearing cow dung on herface as a temporary fix for the itching was disgusting and not a long-term solution.

With Mason and Emily gone, it was time for Brittany and Daniel to leave too. They headed back toNew York, to the Matthews' villa. It was Sunday, so Jessica should have been resting at home, butshe was nowhere to be found in the villa. Where had she run off to?

Wondering if Jessica had sneaked off to meet another man while he was away, Daniel decided topay an unexpected visit to her office. He stormed into The Matthews Organization’s president’soffice, not empty-handed, though. He brought a big bunch of roses and a box of ice cream with him.

Pushing open the office door, Daniel spotted Jessica dressed in an office lady's suit, sitting in herchair. Jessica hadn't met anyone else, which brought a wave of joy to Daniel's heart. He greeted herwith overflowing enthusiasm, "Darling, did you miss me?"

"Miss your ass! I'm annoyed right now! Leave me alone!"

"These are for you! And here's some ice cream—take a bite, and it will make you sweet enough tosmile with eight dimples." Daniel scooped up some ice cream, her favorite chocolate and blueberryflavor, and brought it to her lips.

After tasting Daniel's ice cream, Jessica's mood instantly brightened. "You're the one with eightdimples! What kind of person has that? Anyway, when I saw you looking so worried when I came in,what happened? You're not concerned about me fooling around with other girls, are you?"

"If you dare do that, I'll cripple you!" Jessica glared at Daniel and changed the subject, "Do youremember Prospera Group?"

The Prospera Group? How could Daniel possibly forget? Isabella Evans was also engaged to him,and what was most important was that her mother had The Grass of Tamed Dragon in herpossession.
