The Scorned Heiress: No More Mercy novel Chapter 759

To Coen, Danny is an untamed force of nature who never answers to anyone.

"I have to pick her up later. Drinking isn't a good idea," Danny replies casually.

The real reason is that whenever he goes home with alcohol in his system, he uses the buzz as an excuse to get handsy. Tara figured out his trick, so now, whenever he smells like liquor, she locks him out. It's a headache. So unless absolutely necessary, he stays sober. If he's going to drink, he prefers doing it at home with her—where the 'benefits' are guaranteed.

"Wow. Love really changes a man. Miss Dennis must be fascinating. Now I really want to work with her," Coen observes, treating Danny like a newly discovered species.

He has heard the rumors about the Dennis family's drama and Charles's passing. A woman in her early twenties managing a massive corporation and bringing a board of stubborn old executives to their knees is no small feat. It's incredibly rare.

Then again, he looks at the man sitting across from him. This freak of nature is a business prodigy who doesn't just run a family empire—he practically controls the nation's economic pulse.

"That's not happening. Your direct partner is someone else. She's Tara's best friend and will be handling the company's daily operations," Danny shuts him down instantly, sending a clear warning: Don't even think about looking at my woman.

Coen rolls his eyes. This petty bastard. Since when did he become such a jealous freak?

At that exact moment, Bianca is sitting a few tables away.
