Manly's use of reverse psychology didn't go unnoticed. As long as Daniel remained within The Big Dipper, he couldn’t take the four trillion he seemingly won with him. Thus, in Manly’s eyes, her loss was not a true loss.
"An imbecile? You know, such a beautiful woman like yourself shouldn’t say that about me! If you claim I’m lacking, I might just have to prove you wrong one day and let you feel for yourself just how capable I am," Danny retorted with a sly smile.
"If you're so confident, then come with me," Manly said whilst walking ahead, her hip sway accentuated by her high heels.
Daniel followed, trying hard not to stare too obviously, but the sight was too appealing for him to ignore completely.
Lily, walking beside him, certainly noticed where Daniel's attention lay. She reached out and pinched his arm, causing a bruise to form instantly.
"Ouch!" Daniel cried out, perplexed, "Why’d you pinch me, Lily? You're really hurting me!"
"I should’ve done worse. If those eyes of yours keep wandering, believe me, I’ll pluck them out," Lily snapped.
"You're such a she-wolf. Keep this up, and you'll scare off any potential suitors!"
