Chapter 23 You're My Honey Brittany swore to herself that she'd drive Daniel out of TMO and away from Jessica for good! After a quick drive, they pulled up in front of a stand-alone villa in The Matthews residential complex.

"Weren't you supposed to taketo a five-star hotel?" "Isn't this place better than any five-star hotel?" "But this is your house!" "You don't want to stay at my house?" "No! Did you bringhere because you've fallen for me? Are you planning to actually marry me?" Daniel's hopeful little eyes made Jessica laugh.

"So, you really wantto marry you, huh?" "Of course." "Why?" "Because... because you're pretty!" Daniel almost let slip that it was because he wanted The Sealed Dragon Grass.

"If I weren't pretty, you wouldn't marry me?" "Uh..." "And you hesitate? Men really are dogs!" Jessica pulled out a set of keys and handed them over to Daniel.

"This villa is yours now." "Mine? Don't you live here?" "Why would I live here? What are you thinking?" Jessica rolled her eyes at Daniel and then fished out a sleek black credit card, handing it over.

"This credit card has no spending limit; use it as you wish." "You're givinga villa and a no-limit credit card. Are you trying to be my sugar mommy or what?" "Cut that out!" Jessica pointed to the sleek car and said, “This car is yours too, for getting around." "All these material things don't matter. What's important is... can I call you 'dear'?" "No!! If you dare callthat in front of others, I'll fire you on the spot! However you've done well these past few days, I'm quite satisfied, so I'll grant you sprivileges. In public, you still callJessica. In private, you can callJess or J." "Yes! Honey!" "You..." Jessica stomped her foot and pouted.

"I mean it, if you keep callingthat, I'll really get mad!" Despite her scolding, Jessica was astonished to find that deep down, she didn't mind when Daniel called her Honey. If it weren't for her quick reflexes, she might have just agreed, What was happening to her? Could she actually like him?

To stop her mind from wandering, Jessica quickly changed the subject, "That wormin grandpa's body, what's up with that?"

"It's a specially engineered parasite, you won't find anything like it in the wild. Those used for curses are bred by the THead curse casters. If your grandpa was hit with that curse, someone's definitely out to get him. I've dealt with the creature this time, so they didn't succeed. But I expect they might try again. However, Honey, rest assured, as long as I'm around, your grandpa will be safe." "Don't callHoney!" "There's no one else here. Calling you Honey doesn't cost you anything." "You..." Annoyed, Jessica stamped her foot.

"Jerk!" After cursing Daniel under her breath, she clacked away in her high heels.

"Honey, aren't you staying for dinner?" "Shut up!" Quickly stepping away, Jessica felt her pretty cheeks flush with embarrassment.

That Daniel, he was shameless. Next time, she'd have to avoid being alone with him Being solo with him, he'd surely keep calling her Honey!
