Chapter 335 A Bad Idea

"Is this your bad idea?" Daniel questioned with a smirk.

"What are you talking about? How is making use of my skills a bad idea?" Jessica replied, slightlydefensive.

"So, you're asking me to put on a show? That's what it is, right?" Daniel elbowed back.

"Are you unwilling to treat my grandfather or are you just lacking the skill?" Jessica challenged.

"Who says I'm not skilled? What will you do if I actually cure him?"

"What do you want me to do?" she challenged back.

"Make love to me!" Daniel blurted out brazenly.

"Sex? Impossible. Not until after the one-year trial period," Jessica retorted firmly.

"You’re cruel! How can you expect me to remain single with such a beautiful wife? Besides,shouldn't sex be a part of the trial? If you don't test that and it turns out I'm not good enough,wouldn't that be tragic after a year?"

"If you're not good enough, then I'll kick you to the curb!"

...

The next day, after an entire night discussing with Jessica, Daniel had learned about hergrandfather, Kind Matthews's health issues. The chronic illnesses plaguing Kind were not things thatcould be cured with acupuncture alone; he needed certain herbs.

Thus, Daniel decided to visit an herbal medicine market to buy the needed ingredients, intending tomake some medicinal pills for Kind to eat. Combined with acupuncture, these could potentially bring

about a full recovery.

As soon as Daniel stepped out the door, a two-tone Rolls-Royce pulled up in front of him. An elderlyman stepped out of the car and bowed to him, saying, "Young Master, good day."

His gesture took Daniel by surprise.

"Sir, I think you may have mistaken me for someone else. I don't know you and I'm surely not any'young master.'"

"You are Daniel, correct? Raised in Dragon field, and you've only left there recently," the elderpersisted.

Daniel nodded, "Right."

"Young Master, you are the grandson of New York's premier family, The Perkins. My name is LoganRoberts; I am the butler of The Perkins and your servant, here to ensure your safety."

Daniel stood flabbergasted.

"The Perkins are in trouble, and you must stay out of sight, especially not in New York. The othermembers of The Perkins must not know of your existence!"

Logan handed Daniel a business card. "I mustn't be seen meeting with you. Young Master, if youneed anything at all, just call this number. Whatever you require, I'll see it done."

"You say I'm the young master of The Perkins family in New York, but who are my parents? Whereare they? How come they've never visited me?"

"The affairs of your parents cannot be divulged to you just yet. You must strive to become the headof The Perkins and take control of the family before that secret can be revealed. Sharing it with you

now could end your life!"

With those last words, Logan walked away, and Daniel stood there, business card in hand,dumbfounded. Could it be true that he was the young master of the distinguished Perkins family ofNew York?

Daniel quickly pulled out his phone and began to search online. There was absolutely noinformation about Logan to be found, and anything about The Perkins was just as obscure. Had heencountered a con artist?

But then, what could they possibly want to scam from him?

As Daniel pondered, a woman's sharp voice suddenly interrupted his thoughts.

"Country boy, what are you up to?"
