Chapter 652 Victoria



Daniel's question was like a thunderclap, jolting everyone present. Everyone turned to stare at him with a mix of disbelief and curiosity. Victoria, who was stunned herself, was an international movie star with spot-on acting chops, and she could take a joke.

Matching his playful tone, she responded with a grin, "Oh, handsome! That's exactly why I came over. Do you mind sharing your contact info with me? Maybe your phone number?"

"Usually, I'd mind if a girl wanted my number. I'm a man of principles and boundaries. Most pretty girls? I wouldn't accept their flirtations so easily. But sweetie, you're like a modern Venus. So, not only do I not mind giving you my number, but I wouldn't say no to dinner with you either! Invite me anytime; I'm always available. Dinner, movies, whatever you want to do with me, I'm all in! Of course, darling, if you want to do something else with me, my schedule is wide open."

Daniel was rambling now.

Beauty couldn't take it anymore. She grabbed a banana, unpeeled, and jammed it straight into his mouth, effectively sealing it shut.

Frantically, Daniel spat out the banana and looked at Beauty with pitiful eyes as if wronged and asked innocently, "Beauty, what's that for?"

"And what am I meant to be doing? Stop your chatter! I needed to plug your mouth before you polluted my ears!"

"Beauty, even if you want to plug my blabbering mouth with a banana, at least peel it first!"

"Peel it? Don't tell me how to do my job!" Beauty glared at him with fierce irritation.

"Careful, or next time it might be my-!" Daniel shot back with a timely tease.

Feeling mocked, Beauty kneed Daniel right in the backside.

"I'll kick you dead!"

After the kick, Beauty turned to

Victoria and said, "Don't bother with

this

He's a jerk. Bestet

away from him."

"Beauty, are you so protective of him because he's your boyfriend?" Victoria asked with a sly smile.

"Nonsense! This jerk, my boyfriend? He's just a helper I pay to drive me around. Just a little assistant."

"Drive you? What does he drive?"

"Can't you be serious for a moment?"

Beauty was clearly exasperated with Victoria.

They were both heiresses from the prestigious eight families and had been friends since they attended the same kindergarten-best friends and almost sisters through childhood and into their grown-up lives.

"If this gentleman isn't your boyfriend, then I guess it's okay for me to add him!" Victoria chuckled.

"Handsome? You're older than him!"

"Oh! So he's the young and handsome type. Even better!"

"Victoria, show some decorum! Aren't you a

I an heiress of The Brooke

Can't you be a little reserved

of a man you've just met?"ront

Beauty was either jealous or just protective. Either way, she wanted Victoria to keep her distance from Daniel!
