Daddy, don't flirt

Chapter 420: She’s the Aim

“Are these the pieces of the broken vase?” Dan’s wounds are painful for Jamie to watch as if the pieces are stuck in Jamie’s heart.

Dan responses with an affirmative hum.

Jamie doesn’t remove the pieces swiftly or hard, but she’s experienced enough to ease his pain to the point where he can bear.

Dan has to say his wife really gets the talent.

“Who else did you help to deal with the wounds?” Dan sounds quite jealous.

Because it seems that Jamie has done this before, and that’s why she’s so experienced.

Jamie doesn’t tilt her head up or stops removing the pieces. “When we were in England, Bunny loved dismantling those machines and often got himself hurt, and I helped him with his wounds. Then I helped Ryan Jack deal with his.”

It’s okay to help Bunny, but when Jamie brings about Ryan Jack, Dan’s face gets stone-cold.

Dan’s unpleasant breath makes Jamie tilt her head up and look at him, putting the tweezer aside, as she finds Dan is jealous at what she says. Then she looks at him flatteringly. “Only twice for him, okay?”

Dan doesn’t believe her, and his eyes shift to the sanitizer, gesturing to Jamie.

Jamie gets it and dabs several cotton buds with the sanitizer to sanitize his arms with them.

Then Jamie finds a bottle of herbal medicine powder and sprinkles it over his wounds little by little.

A smile curves up Dan’s lips as he watches Jamie taking good care of him intently, and he wishes time could stop at this moment.

After everything is done, Dan goes to sleep with Jamie in his arms.

Unlike Jamie’s usual sleeping posture, she is willing to wrap Dan up with her arms and legs as tight as an octopus does, as if she’s afraid his escaping from her.

Dan just follows her lead and holds her tight as he understands it’s owing to the falling vase, which makes Jamie feel insecure.

Dan rhythmically pats her on her back. “Just sleep. Here I am by your side.”

Then Jamie rests easy and flickers her eyes. Suddenly, she holds her hands out, cups Dan’s handsome face, and kisses hard on his light pink lips, then she quickly buries her face into his hug and closes her eyes sleeping.

Now Dan’s really tortured by his scorching lust.

He stares at Jamie’s figure intently and bitterly sighs, trying to push her away to calm himself down, but he is too addicted to her hug, making him hold her tighter.

Dan doesn’t open his eyes until it’s next morning while Jamie is still sleeping sound. Dan gently combs Jamie’s hair with his warm palm, looking at her beautiful face in delight.

After getting up, Dan tucks Jamie’s favorite puppet kitten into Jamie’s arms as his replacement, which was brutally thrown into the wardrobe last night due to his jealousy.

Dan walks into his study.

“Boss Dan, through the investigation, they find that nobody booked the room, while the security camera was broken just at that time, they don’t have monitoring footages.” Linda’s voice comes out of the video.

Dan cocks his head to one side with his furrowed brows, listening to Linda’s report.

Linda notices Dan’s unhappy postures, which upsets her a lot, and she’s afraid that Dan will fire her due to the fruitless investigation.

Linda is the director in charge of the site design in CR, and Dan wants her to design for the event at the end of this month, which makes her pumped. However, the falling vase ruins everything.

Dan thinks it over in silence, while Linda feels more and more terrible.

“Sir…”

“Does anyone book the room next to it?” Dan suddenly asks.

Linda lets out a confused “Ah”, and she turns to ask the manager. “Yes, sir. The room on the right was booked, but the manager checks over the booking history and finds that the man has checked out after the accident.”

Dan squints and says seriously, “Go to collect the man’s information, and I want to see his photo.”

After around three minutes, Linda gets the related files, but she says with disappointment, “Sir, I’m sorry, but his ID card is counterfeited. Although we find him on other monitoring footages, he purposely left his back for the cameras.”

It seems someone did it by design.

And Jamie is the aim.

Dan looks at the photos on his screen. The man in a black hoodie purposely left his back for the security cameras, which is too hard to recognize him.

Dan cuts off the video phone and deliberates with furrowed brows.

He doesn’t think it’s Ryan Jack as he’s sure that Ryan and Anna Pork have left Country C, and Ryan’s underworld has been taken by Bunny. It can’t be Ryan.

Jack Moore is in the jail with 24 hours surveillance. It can’t be him, either,

Then…

Who’s the bad guy?

Dan is lost in his thought when the study door flies open. Jamie unhappily looks at him. “I have heard you.”

Dan is dumbfounded as he assures Jamie is sleeping. Then Jamie throws her puppet kitten hard at him and runs away with her feet shuffling in slippers.

Dan instinctively feels Jamie is pissed off and that she misunderstands the video-call. Then he hears the sound of closing a door follow some loud noise.

He walks out of the study and finds his pillow and quit are thrown out of the bedroom, lying on the ground. Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.

What the heck…

Dan frustratedly arches his lips as he hopes it’s not like what he thinks, otherwise he’ll…

“Sweetheart, open the door.”

Dan tentatively swirls the handle and he finds Jamie locks it up from inside, which makes him at him wits end. She has got sensitive and capricious since she’s pregnant. She’s so spoiled that she dares to shut him out of his bedroom.

Who has been spoiling her?

Jamie locks herself in the bedroom and hides herself into her quit, pretending she can hear nothing.

She instantly wakes up after Dan leaves the bedroom this morning. Maybe she’s a bit oversensitive recently and she can’t sleep tight without his company. So, she follows him to the study.

And she finds he is on a video-phone with a woman.

She’s overwhelmed by waves of sorrow, as if she gets suffocative in the water.

She can’t stop sobbing. Although she’s dying to open the door for Dan, she refuses to see his face now.

Debating in her own mind, she falls asleep in the knocks.
