Billionaire’s Missing Darling by Theresa Wilde

Chapter 485

As soon as the elders entered, they greeted Daniel eagerly and asked him if he was settling down

comfortably here.

Daniel was facing them with his side. His good–looking side profile was cold and beautiful. Even the

elders were stunned.

This Daniel was really good–looking.

Daniel was curled up on the sofa lazily. His half–squinted eyes were deep. and charming.

“I love it here,” he said. “It’s given me an unexpected but delightful surprise.”

Wow, such a high evaluation!

The few elders looked at each other. They had not expected Daniel to give such a high evaluation.

The Lopez Family’s First Elder said, “I wonder if dinner is to Daniel’s taste? Lucy and the others

specially cooked a few dishes for you.”

Upon hearing this, Daniel did not answer. Instead, he glanced at Braeden Lopez with a little coldness.

Braeden instantly felt uneasy and did not know how to respond. It was Lucy who said apologetically,

“Grandpa, we didn’t cook for Daniel.”

“What’s going on?” Braeden’s expression changed.

The other elders also looked over in surprise.

Lucy first smiled shyly at Daniel, then explained in a low voice, “We were preparing dinner in the

kitchen, but halfway through, the Saintess went in…

“She…” Lucy made to say something but hesitated as if she was too embarrassed to criticize others.

Irene, on the other hand, couldn’t stand the grievance and interrupted, “Lucy, don’t save face for the

Saintess. Daniel, you don’t know this, but the Saintess was very domineering. As soon as she came in,

she called all the servants away and didn’t leave any for us, making it impossible for us.

to cook.”

After saying that, she looked at Daniel with a resentful and expectant gaze.

Daniel ignored her and lowered his eyes. No one knew what he was

thinking

After listening to Irene’s complaint, Dolph, First Elder of the Flores larrilly, couldn’t sit still. He really

hadn’t expected the Saintess to be so domineering, nor had he expected Irene and the others to

complain.

It was obvious that the other three families had joined forces to lay a trap for him.

He had to think of a way. He could not let Daniel misunderstand the Saintess and think that she was

arrogant.

Just as Dolph Flores was sweating profusely from anxiety, Daniel spoke. He let out a low laugh, his

eyes dark and beautiful. “I hadn’t expected the Saintess to be so thoughtful towards me, and thus

requiring so many people for the dishes she prepared.”

Speaking of this, he paused for a moment and turned to Irene and the others, who were in a daze from

confusion, and said in a comforting tone, “I know that you can’t compare to the Saintess in terms of

thoughtfulness, but I’m not picky about these things. Just let the chef prepare the three meals.”

Irene was about to cry!

She was clearly here to complain. How did it become that her feelings were inferior to Berry’s?

Lucy and the others were also shocked. They had not expected Daniel to think this way. She

stammered, “Dan… Daniel, don’t you think the Saintess is too domineering?”

Daniel glanced over indifferently and asked, “Can’t you cook without servants? Don’t you have hands?

You’re so thoughtless and yet falsely accuse others. I don’t expect to eat the dishes you made yourself,

but I don’t like people like you who clearly don’t want to do it yourself but still find all kinds of reasons to

take credit.

“Hypocrite!”

That lightly enunciated word of judgment made Lucy and the others. blush in frustration.

They wanted to explain, but they did not know how. It was indeed as Daniel had said. Even without

servants, they had their own hands. Couldn’t they have done it themselves?

It was already late. Daniel did not want to waste time with them. He waved his hand and said, “You can

leave. I’m going to rest.”

he corners of Braeden’s mouth twitched. It was only 8 pan. and Daniel was already going to rest? The

sky was not even dark yet!

Although he cursed in his heart, Braeden did not dare to show it. He could only chuckle and leave with

a group of people.

After leaving the house, Dolph was in an extremely good mood. He looked at the few people opposite

him who had intended to gain an advantage only to end up worse off. He chuckled and said, “Daniel is

right. You guys didn’t show genuine care towards him. You even wanted to sue the Saintess.

Fortunately, Daniel is smart and didn’t fall for it.” “Hmph!” Braeden flicked his sleeves and turned to give

Lucy a command. “Follow me.”

After going somewhere with no one else around, Braeden turned around and looked at Lucy with an

expression of having been let down by someone he cared about. “Lucy, what’s wrong with you

recently? Why do you keep disappointing me?”

“Grandpa.” Lucy lowered her head, her eyes reddened.

Seeing her granddaughter like this, Braeden’s heart ached. He softened his tone and said in a low

voice, “Lucy, Lucy, things are different now. You’re no longer the flawless girl of destiny from before.

Although those people don’t talk about it openly, they must be laughing at you and Jason Sprout in their

hearts.

“Now, you’re using the pretext of bringing glory to the family to shut the mouths of those stubborn old

fools in the Lopez family. However, if you fail and don’t get Daniel’s sponsorship for the Lopez family,

your status. in the family will be unstable. Even I won’t be able to protect you. “Lucy, you won’t be able

to take my seat anymore!”

The First Elder sighed softly.

A trace of stubbornness flashed in Lucy’s eyes. She refused to admit defeat and said, “I won’t lose.”

Braden looked at his granddaughter. “Lucy, there’s always a bigger fish in the pond. Daniel is not

simple. Have you seen the changes in the Dale family? In just a few days, the vaunted Dale family had

withered to this extent. What kind of person is Irene Dale? Previously, she had been a relative nobody

among the younger generation, but now she’s considered on equal footing with you. It can be seen that

the Dale family is running. out of talents.

Don’t let preconceptions fool you when regarding Daniel.

As for that Jason, he’s considered a big shot in the Sprout Family. Sadly, es too ruthless and arrogant.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have fallen into Berry Flores’s hands. Lucy, think carefully. Compared to Daniel,

Jason isn’t even worthy of carrying his shoes.”

“Grandpal” Lucy could not stand the First Elder belittling Jason. She could not help but retort, “Jason is

also very outstanding.”

“Outstanding?” Braeden sneered and questioned sternly, “Do you know how much the Lopez family’s

assets add up to?”

Lucy replied, “One billion dollars.”

“What about the four families combined?”

Lucy thought for a moment. “Less than five billion dollars.”

“Heh.” Braeden sneered. “Then do you know about Daniel’s personal

assets?”

Lucy lowered her head.

Braeden said, “90 billion dollars! Just personal assets, not including the company. This is only on the

surface. No one knows how many hidden assets and powers Daniel has. Now, let me ask you, who is

Jason compared to someone like Daniel?”

At Braeden’s harsh words, Lucy finally could not resist and cried, “He’s nobody!”

She took a deep breath. “Grandpa, don’t worry. I’ll definitely gain Daniel’s favor.”

“Good girl, that’s my good granddaughter.” Braeden chuckled.

In the Maple Villa, Olivia had already prepared the calming incense and. was thinking of a way to send

it into Daniel’s room when Ellis knocked. on the door with a troubled expression. “Miss Berry, do you

have calming incense, or some similar kind of medicine, with you? Daniel has been suffering from

insomnia.”

Olivia was surprised.

This timely opportunity had just fallen into her lap. She had been so lucky recently!
