Chapter 948 Danny Is Hiding from Ariel

Feeling speechless, Alexander rolled his eyes and yelled, “What the heck is wrong with you? Are you trying to reenact the Psycho Storm Chaser? Do you want to scare someone to death wearing this attire and knocking on the door in the middle of the night?”

Danny felt wronged and dumbfounded. “Did I just scare the devil?” Alexander was so pissed that he had no words to retort. If Danny weren’t his biological brother, he would have beat him up!

Meanwhile, Elise knew it was a false alarm when she heard Alexander’s tone. When she approached them and saw that it was Danny at the door, she quickly made her way and beckoned him inside. “It’s all just a misunderstanding. Alexander isn’t angry at you. Come in. It’s raining so heavily outside. You might catch a cold.”

Danny quickly entered the house and set his briefcase down before taking off his raincoat. “What’s inside the briefcase?” Alexander asked while giving it a light kick.

“Clothes,” Danny answered. “Clothes?” Alexander was even more pissed. “Are a few clothes worth using a combination lock briefcase?”

The owner of Smith Co. was actually frightened by a briefcase filled with clothes. It would be so humiliating if word got out.

“Dragging a suitcase seems less cool compared to this,” Danny explained with a serious expression.

No man on earth didn’t like being cool, especially childish men like Danny, because they wanted to be unique.

With a combination lock briefcase in hand and a black raincoat, he had the demeanor that would attract everyone’s attention while walking on the street.

Alexander had his hands crossed before his chest while puffing out his cheeks. He was so pissed that he didn’t know what to say.

On the other hand, Danny had something on his mind, so he did not observe Alexander’s expression. He turned to Elise and got straight to the point. “Elise, there must be empty rooms in this manor, right? I need to move in for a few days.”

“Sure.” Elise nodded. “Ariel will be staying over as well, I suppose? I’ll clean out a larger guest room for you guys.”

“No.” Danny muttered, “It’s only me, so a bed will suffice.”

Sensing something wasn’t right, Elise tried to probe. “Did you guys quarrel?”

Danny avoided her gaze and looked away before picking up his briefcase. “I think I’d better clean the guestroom myself.”

Hearing that, Elise had an answer in mind and looked at Alexander while raising an eyebrow. “Seems like they quarreled, and Danny is the one thrown out of the house. Quite pitiful.”

“That’s what he deserves.” Alexander gloated and added, “He’s already a grown-up, yet he can’t even coax his girlfriend. I, on the other hand, will never be like him.”
