Daniel Marshall’s eyes, clear and shining like obsidian, glimmered with an air of stern sharpness.
Below the seemingly tranquil surface, a sharp edge was hidden. Positioned on a prominently sculpted, handsome face, as if crafted by a master artisan, Daniel’s features only emphasized his imposing aura, involuntarily evoking the image of a regal lion ruling the grasslands!
James Marshall couldn’t help his eyes from slightly narrowing and an involuntary twitch gracing his mouth corner.
With a subtle arch of his brow, Daniel spoke in a deep voice, “Uncle, you didn’t even check the caller ID, how do you know it’s those annoying telemarketers already? What if it’s important and you miss it?”
James remained silent and pulled out his phone, then answered the call in front of Daniel.
Grace Martinez was relieved that James finally answered his call, but she was stunned to hear him saying irrelevant things about not buying a house, thanking the caller, and the like…
However, Grace quickly realized that it was not a good time for James to talk.
After the phone call was over, Grace didn’t try to reach him again.
Setting his phone on the tabletop, James calmly stared at Daniel, “I told you, it’s just those annoying telemarketers. They keep changing numbers and disturbing me every day. Even if I warn them or blacklist them, another one will come.”
Resting his slender fingers on his temple, Daniel said, “I can feel uncle’s annoyance. Do you really have no intention of buying a house? I have many friends in the real estate business. I can introduce you to some legitimate real estate.”
With a smile, James replied, “Thanks, but I am not currently considering buying a house. I am heading to the Kingdom of Dale, and if things go well there, I might not come back. We already have several houses right now; if I don’t return, they will be empty. That would be a waste!”
His enticing thin lips slightly open, Daniel said inscrutably, “It seems you have already made your decision and arrangements.”
“I like challenges. Developing abroad is also a good opportunity. I will definitely cherish it.”
Daniel nodded slightly, his enticing lips tight, and he stood up.
James politely said, “Leaving so soon? I still wanted to chat longer.”
“Uncle, I still have work to do. We can catch up later. I can also fly to the Kingdom of Dale to visit you. Besides, I always go overseas for a period of time each year, so we will still have chances to meet.”
“Alright, you go ahead to work first.”
As soon as Daniel returned to the office, he was greeted by a young employee.
Daniel gave only a cursory glance; suddenly, his eyes sharply narrowed, and his brows furrowed.
Checking for some specific traits, Daniel took a specific look at the young staffer’s chin.
Just as fate would have it, this young staffer had a faint crescent mark on her chin.
“What is your purpose here?”
The CEO’s voice, cold and low, imbued with a magnetic quality, left Grace Ziegler shocked, her eyes wide in astonishment.
Grace Ziegler shivered slightly. Her heart started beating rapidly and she was both scared and nervous.
“Chief Daniel Marshall, I… I came to hand in a resume.”
Daniel Marshall stared piercingly at Grace Ziegler, “You work in HR?”
Grace Ziegler awkwardly wrung her small hands and nodded with a stunned expression.
“You may leave now.”
Grace Ziegler bowed slightly and then left.
Not until she stepped into the elevator did Grace Ziegler let out a sigh of relief, her face suddenly turning pale.
After taking a few deep breaths, Grace Ziegler’s heartbeat was still rapid, and she hadn’t calmed down yet.
Her hands were still shaking with nervousness.
Ordinarily, she had heard her colleagues discussing Chief Daniel Marshall, saying he was terrifying yet also handsome, and no one dared to approach him.
Today, having seen him in a hurry, Grace Ziegler felt that he was as her colleagues said, that Chief Daniel Marshall carried an aura of royalty, which was quite intimidating.
