Not A Small-Town Girl

Chapter 40

Chapter 19-1

Howard and Vivian believed it was only right that the younger generation was respectful of their elders.

They kept bugging Danielle, reminding her over and over, "You gotta bring a gift when you visit Logan tomorrow.

Don’t show up with your hands empty."

Danielle met her parents’ eager looks and finally gave in. "Fine, I'll do it." She figured it could be a follow-up visit.

After all, she had gotten the Crimson Lily as a gift, and David did drop a ridiculous amount of cash for that

surgery.

David exchanged a few more niceties with Howard and Vivian before he got up and made to leave. "I'll pick you

up tomorrow morning, Miss Darling. Please excusenow."

Vivian stood up as well. "Are you leaving already? Cby anytime, but don’t worry about bringing any gifts."

David responded lightly in his deep voice, "It’s just a token of my appreciation. Not a big deal."

"Danielle, please see David off," Vivian instructed.

Danielle didn’t see why she had to do so. She still seemed to think that David's visit had nothing to do with her.

Still, she obeyed her parents’ instructions and saw David to the door, even waiting for him to get into his car.

David, however, continued to stand at the door, staring at her intently.

He finally spoke again. "Miss Darling, | don’t think we have exchanged contact information yet," he said as he

took his phone out and handed it to her.

Danielle took her phone out as well, and the both of them saved each other's contact information.

"See you tomorrow, my fiancée," David said in a slightly raspy voice, but his eyes shone brilliantly.

Danielle was taken aback. She hadn't agreed to the marital arrangement.

Howard and Vivian watched the exchange with their mouths slightly agape. It seemed like David had taken a

liking to Danielle after all. They imagined the two might tie the knot before the end of the next year.

Their feelings of elation were soon replaced by dread. They had only just reunited with their daughter and were

unwilling to part with her again so soon. The Darling brothers shared the ssentiment.

Audrey stared angrily at Danielle. Her hands were clenched so tightly that her fingernails dug into her flesh.

"I'll take care of it," Danielle answered.
