Not A Small Town Girl (Danielle and David) novel Chapter 100

Chapter 100

"I’m sorry," Emma said. "I was discourteous. I thought we were familiar with each other, so I..." She had noticed Danielle a long time ago, and her words could easily be misunderstood.

"Familiar with each other?" Danielle said as she looked up at David.

David then looked at Danielle worriedly, afraid that she would misunderstand. In the end, he noticed that her face was full of smiles.

"I don’t know her, Danielle," he said, going along with what Danielle had said. Since Danielle wanted to make things difficult for Emma, he would play along.

"No, no, it’s not that," Emma said endearingly, even looking somewhat flustered. "We’re not familiar with David."

Danielle revealed a disdainful smile, thinking, ’With her explanation, she might as well shut up. She’s afraid that others won’t overthink things. Fortunately, I know what kind of person David is.’

"Since you said you’re not familiar with him, don’t keep calling David that way," she said. "It’s really disgusting to hear. I suggest you speak properly. Aren’t you afraid of accidentally suffocating yourself with your cutesy voice?

"Even if you aren’t afraid, you should consider how it affects the ears of the people around you."

"Ma’am, did I provoke you in any way?" Emma said. "Why are you speaking so viciously?" Her eyes welled up with tears, looking like she had suffered a huge grievance.

Anyone who saw this would think that Danielle was bullying her.

Standing aside, Celine couldn’t stand seeing her best friend being bullied and spoke up in her defense. "Emma was just saying hello to David," she said. "Why are you being so harsh on her?"

"I’m fine, Celine," Emma said, tears streaming down her face. "It’s my fault. I shouldn’t have greeted David."

"It’s okay, Emma," Celine said. "Don’t be afraid. We just said hello. We didn’t do anything wrong." At this point, Celine had been completely swayed, looking like she wanted to defend Emma. "With me around, you can forget about bullying Emma."

Looking at Celine as if she was a fool, Danielle said, "You think you can stand up for her? You’re being used by her, yet you’re still helping her out. What can you do? It’s out of courtesy that I reproached her that way."

"How... how can you put things this way?" Celine was at a loss for words.

She was so angry that she complained to David, saying, "David, look at her. How can she be so rude?"

David glanced at Celine indifferently, yet it felt like there was an invisible pressure coming at her.

Celine was so frightened that she flinched. She was usually terrified of David. Every time she saw him, it was like a mouse seeing a cat.

’I was really pissed off by this woman just now, so I complained to this terrifying guy, she thought.

"If you want to stay here and eat, stay far away from us or get out," David said. His tone was flat, but he spoke in such a way that made it difficult for others to ignore.

"Da-David, I was wrong," Celine said. "I’ll now bring Emma to the side to eat." Celine was so frightened that she trembled when she walked. It was obvious that she was really terrified of David.

Going along with Celine’s words to save face, Emma walked away quietly with her, afraid of saying something that would anger David.

After the two of them left, it was quiet again.

"Quite a few people are secretly in love with you," Danielle said slowly. "How can I guard against so many love rivals?"

"You don’t have to guard against them," David said with sincerity and deep affection. "I’ll keep a distance from any woman who gets close to me.

Any romantic interest that comes my way is rubbish, and I’ll remove it myself. All you need to do is stay by my side.
