The whole room filled with the fragrance of the alcohol, the rich aroma delighting everyone, leaving the two women feeling slightly tipsy just from the scent.
Gently, with his palms, Daniel smoothed out the crinkles on the once wrinkled painting until the paper was as flat as a mirror. Then, he lit the painting with a lighter. With the addition of the vodka, the scroll quickly caught fire, sending up beautiful blue flames.
Brittany gasped in horror at the scene. "You... you've set the painting on fire again? You used the fifty-thousand- dollar vodka as fuel? Do you think Jessica's money grows on trees? How can you waste it like this? I tell you, the cost of that thirty-year vodka equals your salary for the next ten years. For the next ten years, don't even think about getting a dout of TMO. If you want to get paid, just resign and hit the road!" t Brittany was determined to drive Daniel away, she couldn't stand the idea of him remaining at TMO. Before her, Jessica went through several secretaries, but after she started, Jessica had never hired another secretary, let alone a personal assistant. Daniel looked like a fool and acted like a thug-why should he be Jessica's personal assistant and even serve as her driver? It was clear that before he arrived, Jessica didn't need any stinking men around. If Jessica were to hire an assistant or a driver, the first job description would specify the candidate be female. Brittany couldn't fathom why such a loser like Daniel was so lucky.
Brittany grew more troubled the more she thought about it. From every angle, Daniel did not seem like a good person. He seemed to have appeared out of nowhere to serve as Jessica's assistant, and Brittany suspected this loser was pursuing Ma'am Jessica under the guise of his position. Countless in New York wished to pursue Jessica, yet not a single one had managed to take her out for dinner. Even Andrew from The Armstrongs, despite his lengthy pursuit, had never managed to take Ma'am Jessica out for a single meal. The thought of Jessica being attracted to a no-good man like Daniel was unthinkable. Brittany was determined to drive him away, whatever the cost.

"All done! I have accomplished what I needed to, and the secret of them secret painting is about to be revealed," Daniel announced confidently.
He carefully picked at the bottom right corner of the painting with his nail, slowly peeling away a layer of ey paper. All eyes were fixed upon the scroll as the top layer of the Golden Paper painting began to caway, bit by bit.
