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 sofazily. 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 nced 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 exined 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’sint, Dolph, First Elder of the Floresrrilly, couldn’t sit still. He really
hadn’t expected the Saintess to be so domineering, nor had he expected Irene and the others to
comin.
It was obvious that the other three families had joined forces toy 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 lowugh, 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 aforting tone, “I know that you can’tpare 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 toin. How did it be 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 nced over indifferently and asked, “Can’t you cook without servants? Don’t you have hands?
You’re so thoughtless and yet falsely use 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 exin, 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 alreadyte. Daniel did not want to waste time with them. He waved his hand and said, “You can
leave. I’m going to rest.”
Mocatie’s Maane Daiting
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 amand. “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 wless girl of destiny from before.
Although those people don’t talk about it openly, they must beughing 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 shed 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 rtive 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 dors.”
“What about the four familiesbined?”
Lucy thought for a moment. “Less than five billion dors.”
“Heh.” Braeden sneered. “Then do you know about Daniel’s personal
assets?”
Lucy lowered her head.
Braeden said, “90 billion dors! Just personal assets, not including thepany. This is only on the
surface. No one knows how many hidden assets and powers Daniel has. Now, let me ask you, who is
Jasonpared 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 Vi, 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 simr kind of medicine, with you? Daniel has been suffering from
insomnia.”
Olivia was surprised.
This timely opportunity had just fallen into herp. She had been so lucky recently!
