Chapter 339 Honey''s Examination


    "I did stop your pain with that needle earlier, but it was only temporary. Your menstrual cramps


    haven’t beenpletely cured. Later, I need to go to the herbal market to get some medicine; I can


    pick up what you need, too. If you don''t believe me, so be it. But if you do, once I get the medicine,


    I''ll continue your treatment."


    "Country boy, better not be ying tricks on me! If you try anything, you''ll have to answer to me."


    "Do something improper? To you? Out of all the women in the world, you''re thest one I''m


    interested in. Even if we''re in the same room, or if you put on a seductive dress, it wouldn''t stir a


    thing in me. No matter how you try to entice me, I won’t spare you a nce."


    "You... you’re just being obstinate!"


    Brittany was seething. She felt humiliated. She was popr, with countless men pursuing her, and


    this country boy had the audacity to say he wasn’t interested?


    After considering Daniel''sments, Brittany realized something.


    "Country boy, don’t think I can’t see through your n. You’re using reverse psychology to provoke


    me into putting on a sexy dress, right? Dream on! I’d rather let a dog see me in a sexy dress than


    you!"


    "A dog? Wow, didn''t realize you went so wild, Brittany!"


    "I... I’ll throw you off a cliff!"


    In a fit of rage, Brittany grabbed a pillow from the bed and hurled it at Daniel. He punched the flying


    pillow, which ricocheted back onto Brittany''s face and knocked her onto the bed.


    "Country boy, I''ll kill you!"


    Although a pillow didn''t hurt, Brittany was more than a little angry. She pounced, pinned Daniel


    down on the bed, and started punching him. Daniel wriggled about, inadvertently getting more than


    his share of contact, although Brittany was too busy doling out punishment to notice.


    After ten minutes of tussle, Brittanyy exhausted on the bed, while Daniel was still full of energy.


    "Brittany, you were so feisty a moment ago. Come on, keep hitting me! Are you too tired to stand


    now? How amusing!"


    "I... I’ll kick you to death!"


    As Brittany tried to kick him again, Daniel caught her leg in his grasp. Right then, his phone rang


    with a call from Jessica.


    Oh no! Why is she calling during the daytime? For some reason, Daniel felt unexinably nervous.


    "Don''t make a sound!" he whispered to Brittany before answering.

    "Boss... uh, anything you need me for?" Daniel stumbled over his words.


    Sensing something odd from the way he switched from "honey" to "boss," Jessica became


    suspicious. "What are you doing? Whom are you with?"


    "Who else but your Brittany? I was heading to the herbal market when she caught me on the way.


    She used me of skipping work and decided to supervise me. Want me to let her speak to you?"


    Switching the phone to speaker mode, Daniel handed it to Brittany.


    "Brittany, talk to Jessica and confirm it, or she''ll suspect it''s not really you with me."


    With some skepticism, Jessica asked, "Brittany, is that you?"


    "Yes, it''s me, Jessica! I bumped into the country boy on the street and saw he wasn''t behaving,


    intending to skip work, so I thought to drag him back to thepany!"


    "Once you''re done,e back early," Jessica said before hanging up.


    Jessica trusted Daniel when he was with Brittany, confident that as sworn enemies, nothing could


    happen between them. Even after the call ended, Brittany felt a bit flustered.


    "Don''t you dare tell Jessica we were here in a hotel room!" she sternly warned Daniel.


    "Me? Honesty''s my policy! No matter what she asks, I''ll tell her the truth. It''s just me taking a break


    from work to rent a room with Brittany. No big deal, and I don''t lose anything from it."


    "I warn you! If you go bbering, I''ll tear your mouth apart!"


    After leaving the room, they headed straight for the nearby herbal market – Herbal loon.


    Of all the shops in the market, Herbal loon wasn''t the biggest, but it had the most character. Daniel,


    merely ncing at it from afar, could tell it had some hidden gems worth exploring.


    As he eagerly walked in, his eyesnded on a stunning woman in a green dress. She was Aiden


    Foster, the owner of Herbal loon, exuding a serene beauty that could catch any man''s attention.


    Daniel gazed unabashedly at the captivating sight before him. He couldn''t resist admiring beauty,


    and Aiden certainly had plenty to admire.


    Noticing Daniel''s unblinking stare at the owner, Brittany felt a sting of jealousy.


    "Country boy, what are you staring at?" she demanded irritably.


    "Staring at a beauty," he replied simply.


    "I... You... You jerk!"


    "I admit I appreciate beauty openly, and there is no shame in that. What’s wrong with being a


    gentleman about it?"


    "A gentleman? More like a pretentious one," Brittany scoffed.


    Right then, Aiden elegantly approached in her high heels, her charming smile directed at Daniel.


    "Handsome, are you here for some medicine?" she asked coyly.


    "Beautiful! And you are? My name’s Daniel," he introduced himself.


    "Nice to meet you, Daniel. I’m Aiden, the owner of Herbal loon," she replied with her practiced


    warmth.


    The shrewd Brittany could see where this was headed – Aiden could likely charm any money out of


    Daniel. Sensing trouble, she quickly intervened.


    "Do you know her well? There''s plenty of other herbal shops. Let''s not buy from here, let''s find a


    proper one."


    Aiden''s face darkened upon hearing Brittany''s suggestion.
