Betrayed, But Not Defeated novel Chapter 27

Solomon lounged lazily in his chair.

But the phone on the desk rang before he could flirt with his secretary, Brielle Coffey.

"Hello?" Solomon answered the call, then suddenly leaned forward, his head dropping into her chest. "Are you sure it's Daniel? That fool? Ha! This is something new!"

His eyes gleamed, and a sinister smile spread across his face. "Let him in."

"Mr. Walsh, who is it?" Brielle asked, curious.

Solomon scratched his head and stood up. "A fool! I thought today would be boring, but now, we can have fun."

"A fool?" She paused, then chuckled softly.

Daniel didn't expect Solomon to let him into the company immediately.

Pushing open the general manager's office door, he found Solomon still cozying up to Brielle.

She instinctively nudged Solomon. "Mr. Walsh, someone's here."

Solomon looked up. When he saw Daniel, he froze for a moment, then sneered. "Oh? You're looking pretty sharp today. Looks like Jennifer's trying something new."

He hugged Brielle and then walked toward Daniel, clicking his tongue. "No wonder Jennifer liked you back then. Your build and physique are truly enviable."

"Mr. Walsh, is this… the one they talk about?" Brielle asked, astonished as she eyed Daniel.

Wasn't Daniel supposed to be a fool? Why did he look so handsome and strong?

Solomon shot Brielle a furious look. "Little slut, are you tempted?"
