Chapter 80: Acting Pitiful Won’t Work
Realizing that acting pitiful wouldn't work, Daniel quickly changed his approach. He used Railer as an excuse.
Even though Railer hadn't grown up with her, a mother and child were always connected.
Daniel was sure that no matter how cold Chantelle was toward him, she wouldn't ignore her son.
As expected, the moment he mentioned Railer, the determination in Chantelle's eyes faded.
Kane might be a little troublemaker, but he was still just a child. If he saw Daniel's bloody wound, it could traumatize him.
As a mother, Chantelle couldn't let that happen.
"Fine, come in," she sighed. "But you have to rest properly and not do anything weird!"
After a moment, Chantelle reluctantly stepped aside, but not without a serious warning.
"A guest must follow the host's rules. So, you better behave," she said, brows furrowed.
"A guest should always listen to the host! I'll follow your every word, Ms. Chantelle!" Daniel declared before dashing inside like a leopard. It was as if he was scared she would change her mind if he hesitated even a second.
Ashton, still standing outside, was left in shock. He blinked, struggling to process what just happened.
