Chapter 514: Chapter 514: This Man is Toxic
Benjamin Johnson lifted a faint smile to his lips, “Your wife isn’t your personal property, you have no right to interfere with her private life. Daniel Marshall, you’re so self-righteous, it’s truly repulsing.”
Anger fumed out of Daniel’s cold and ruthless eyes as they glared at Benjamin Johnson, with sparks flying.
Daniel’s sexy thin lips parted slightly, his voice suffused with menace, “Benjamin Johnson, you’re still as arrogant as ever! Your cheek is thicker than the sky!”
The smile on Benjamin Johnson’s lips deepened, “Daniel, you’re truly immature, you’re not fit for Olivia Jenkins at all.”
Suppressing his urge to bash Benjamin Johnson, Daniel chose to ignore him completely from the bottom of his heart.
This scum doesn’t deserve his attention!
Compared to shucking corn, this piece of scum is not worth his time.
Talking to scum is simply delaying his corn shucking.
Seeing that Daniel was actually ignoring him and seemed able to restrain himself from throwing a punch, a spark of interest flickered into Benjamin Johnson’s eyes, he sneered at Daniel and said, “Hey, have you admitted defeat?”
“Daniel, this is not your style! You’re content just sitting here shucking corn?”
“Talking to you is really boring! I’m going to find Olivia, you keep on shucking your corn, you deserve it!”
Benjamin Johnson fell silent, observing Daniel with an intrigued smile.
He’d been talking all this while, but Daniel didn’t even look up at him, nor did his expression change in the slightest.
He could not discern Daniel’s true emotions.
In that moment, Daniel acted as though he were invisible, focusing solely on shucking his corn. It was unexpected that he could just sit there calmly.
The corners of Benjamin Johnson’s mouth quirked up in a shallow, yet significant smile as he left.
Scowling at Benjamin’s retreating figure, Simon Howard said, “Daniel, you should have punched him. That guy is so despicable!”
Daniel replied in a cool tone, “Knowing that he is a despicable person and trying to stoop down to his level, will only make us as despicable as him. So, we should just ignore him, let him entertain himself and fool himself.
No matter how much of a deliberate act he puts on, he is but a petty person. He came to disturb me peeling corn, which is a task assigned by my wife; he is nothing more than a cunning and deceitful bastard; I will not succumb to his wishes!”
After reflecting on it, Simon Howard felt that Daniel had a point and got relieved.
The boss was right, they should focus on finishing shucking the corn and ignore despicable provocations.
Valerie Howard watched the video and showed it to Olivia, stating, “This is the first time I have seen Daniel doing farm work, and he is exerting so much effort. His hand is scraped, peeled, and slightly bleeding. Yet, he didn’t skive off, I think he’s pretty good.”
Olivia watched the video and her brows unconsciously furrowed.
While Olivia’s expression remained devoid of any emotional fluctuations, her heart softened a little.
Stealing a glance at Olivia, Valerie continued, “It’s unexpected that Daniel looks so handsome when he is serious, especially his side profile — so perfect. He could have relied on his good looks, but instead he built a successful career on his talent.”
Olivia bit her lower lip lightly.
There was no denying that Daniel was handsome, but this man was poisonous. She must not give him her wholehearted devotion. Otherwise, she would be the one to suffer the most.
With that thought, Olivia’s heart hardened again, and she stopped watching the video.
Suddenly, Benjamin Johnson arrived and, coincidentally, his phone rang.
After a hesitation, Benjamin Johnson answered Jay Bennett’s call.
“Olivia, the director said he is ready to reshoot your scenes.”
On hearing the words ‘Olivia’, Jay’s face on the other end of the call turned ashen white.
