The Devil's Secretary

Chapter 118: Intimate

’Pew’

The dart did not hit the target.

’’We will get it right the second time.’’

Just like that, three rounds were done but the dart did not hit the target once.

Angel was however enjoying the process and Ryle was equally engrossed with her.

Daisy paid again and let them have their fun as she stood on the side.

And in ten minutes, many rounds were over but the dart did not hit the target once.

Was Ryle missing the targets on purpose?

But this time when the stall owner rotated the wheel, her gaze wandered off to the mechanism behind it and her brows tugged together.

Angel also became irritated when she could not get her miniature dolls and she started fussing about in Ryle’s arms.

This time, Ryle took changed the little girl’s hand position a bit and aimed the gun in a slightly crooked angle.

’Bam’ ’Bam’ ’Bam’

One by one, all the darts hit the target, and only then did Daisy realize that Ryle was just playing around with Angel. He also knew that the wheel was arranged in such a way that the darts would miss the target and there small magnets that pulled the iron darts, sending them off track.

Once Angel got bored, he ended the game.

She was speechless.

Even the shop owner had the same observation. He too, was speechless. freeωebnovēl.c૦m

Luckily, he was not exposed. However, when the man’s fleeting gaze passed by him, he shivered and cursed his greedy heart inside. Seeing that there was not a huge crowd tonight and the customers would also be less, he had made some alternative arrangements to earn some extra money. Who could have known he would encounter such people?

He gulped and swore in his heart that he would not do it again.

Once Angel got the miniature fox-rabbit doll she wanted, she was all smiles. She was so happy that her eyes turned into crescent moons and soft giggles erupted in the quiet place accompanied by the little girl’s incomprehensible babblings.

’’And then there are people who think only they know how to shoot,’’ Ryle snorted.

Daisy was speechless, ’’Are you setting my daughter against me, Mr. Harper?"

’’Are you afraid, Miss Chen?"

This petty man.

’’It seems like some people walk with their nose in their air after winning the children’s game,’’ A sarcastic voice entered their ears and as they looked up, they were greeted with the sight of a familiar face.

Lu Xian walked towards them, one of his hands tucked in his pockets.

Daisy was a bit surprised when she saw the man.

But Ryle’s face visibly darkened. He had specifically limited the crowd inside the amusement park for the safety of Daisy and Angel but still, a pest somehow managed to slip past his arrangements.

Lu Xian’s sarcastic gaze shifted from Ryle to Angel, ’’Oh here is your little doll,’’ he looked at Daisy before reaching towards Angel, ’’The last time I went to your place, we got busy with other things and I did not have the chance to interact with her. I think today is my lucky day.’’

Daisy did not understand the implication behind the man’s words.

But Ryle, as a man, saw right through it the suggestive phrases like ’got busy with other things’. He knew that the bastard was definitely referring to the time he had sent his lawyers over to Daisy’s place because according to the information he received, that was the time he was there at Daisy’s place before he left for Beijing.

Yet, he had to put it in such a way that those who did not know better would think that he had something going on with Daisy.

Lu Xian could feel the deathly aura around Ryle. However, he could not be bothered so he still stood in an approaching stance towards Angel. The more he ruffled the man, the better he felt for some reason.

Daisy was clueless about the tug-of-war between the two people.

Angel had gotten the doll that she wanted so she remained still in Ryle’s arms, playing with it and not paying attention to anything in the surroundings. freewebnovel.cσ๓

Ryle’s lips curved up, ’’She stays away from pests.’’

’’She hasn’t just noticed my presence,’’ the man reached to pat Angel’s head but his hand was blocked by Ryle.

Daisy’s lips twitched. She knew these two people did not like each other but she did not like the involvement of Angel in their mutual display of hostility.

Ryle, on the other hand, did not want both the mother and daughter to remain in Lu Xian’s presence for another second.

He held Angel in one arm and walked towards Daisy.

Daisy felt his broad arm smoothly wrapping around her waist as he whispered, ’’Wrong choice of shoes.’’

Daisy glanced at the heels that she was wearing. They were not too high but still for the pavement-like path, it felt rather tough on her feet. In the past, she did not even bother or have the time to dress up properly. Now that she was living rather leisurely days at home and getting to spend most of her time with Angel, she had the time to be idle, dress up properly, and do things she barely did before.

Hence, somehow she ended up not choosing comfortable shoes so as to not ruin the dress.

Ryle’s movements were so natural that Daisy did not find anything amiss about it.

But Lu Xian’s expression changed visibly. The last time, Daisy seemed to be wanting to have to do nothing with Ryle. And even before that, there was not much to their relationship. There always was an ambiguous air around them but now, it almost looked like the both of them were intimate.
