NovelOnlineChapter 182 Another One Jessica hadn't even started to breathe in when a gentle fragrance made its way into her nostrils. The scent was indescribably delightful, almost heavenly. Just a quick whiff made her feel like she was floating. When she looked again, the Sealed Dragon Grass's crimson seemed to have faded a bit.
Daniel noticed and quickly put the plant away.

You can only indulge in the fragrance of the Sealed Dragon Grass every hundred days. It's fragile." "Is it that delicate?" "It's magical because it's not easy to keep alive. If it were, it'd be everywhere." "It's that hard to keep alive? Well, then you take care of it!" "Uhh..." Daniel chuckled. "I can't do that; it needs you!" "Why?" "The Sealed Dragon Grass likes you! It leaned towards you just now." He handed the plant back to her, and sure enough, as it neared Jessica, it leaned her way. "Just watch how it behaves around me." When he took the Sealed Dragon Grass back, it tilted away the moment it was near him.
Jessica couldn't help but laugh. "Even the Sealed Dragon Grass doesn't like you!" "Can't blit! You're breathtaking, a true beauty! It's normal for the Sealed Dragon Grass to fancy a pretty lady." "Shut up!" The next day, in the morning.
After sleeping in, Daniel drove his Palmera to the Matthews Organization. Skipping breakfast, he picked up a beef noodle takeout on his way to the office. As he slurped down his noodles: Click, click, click! The sound of high heels striking the floor, a heavy rhythm, approached. The owner of these heels was walking with fury.
Daniel looked up to see a striking woman in a business suit.
Brittany! Why was she here again in Daniel's office? Was she looking for trouble, once more?
Before Daniel could even greet her, Brittany was already on the attack! Pointing a finger at Daniel's nose, she barked, "You're late again?" "Brittany, just to be clear, Jessica has givena pass from clocking in. So, the word 'late' is not applicable to me." "Not only are you late, but you're also eating noodles in the office, filling the place with the smell. You are disturbing everyone else."

"You... you're grasping at straws!" "Brittany, shouldn't you be working at your desk? What are you doing here? Don't tellyou've fallen for me?" "Hah! Fall for you? Why don't you take a long look at yourself?"
"If it's not that you've fallen for me, why do you keep creating troubles for me? No matter what I do, you always cafterme. Isn't that exactly how En.
a woman behaves when she falls for a man? So, Brittany, you must have a crush on me, and you don't even realize it!" Of course, Daniel was just making things up, trying to tease her.
