Not A Small-Town Girl

The siblings of the Darling family fell silent for a moment. They did not want their sister to be in danger either.

Meanwhile, Danielle held the portrait given by the hitman and fell into a daze. Looking at this portrait that was poorly done, those who didn’t know better would think that an alien had come to Earth.

"Are you sure you drew a human?" she asked.

Looking at the drawing, the hitman forgot his fear for a moment and said sheepishly, "Yeah. This is our butler. I just told you that my drawing is kind of bad."

"You can’t say your drawing is kind of bad. It should be called an abstract piece that transcends the human species."

Letting a hitman draw was a serious miscalculation. Danielle crumpled the sketch and threw it onto the ground, feeling speechless. "You describe him, and I’ll draw," she said.

"That’ll do," the hitman said. "Our butler has thick blonde hair, and he has rather narrow-set eyes..."

Danielle listened to the hitman’s unreliable description and swiftly sketched. In no time, a portrait was completed.

"Yep, this is our butler," the hitman said. "The portrait looks so much like him that it’s practically identical. I’m better at describing things."

The hitman spoke proudly, completely forgetting where he was.

Danielle thought, ’Could it be that I did a good job drawing it...

"With that kind of quality, you people still want to be hitmen?" she said. "I think you’re not going to be killed by the enemy. Rather, you’re going to die from being stupid. Looks like Shadow Domain’s ability to pick people is pretty average."

Danielle’s mouth was like it had been coated with poison, emotionally hurting the hitmen with each word.

She then picked up her phone and took a photo of the portrait before sending it to Emery.

[Check this person out. He’s the butler of Shadow Domain.]

"Ding, ding, ding."

"Ding, ding, ding."

The sound of the phone ringing echoed throughout the entire basement.

David answered the call expressionlessly, saying, "What’s the matter?"

Nathan said, "Mr. Charrington, several major families have had issues with their health. They’ve seen doctors, but nothing can be done. The examination report shows everything is normal and they’re healthy.

"But judging from their symptoms, it’s very likely that they’ve been poisoned. The poison is very subtle, and regular instruments can’t detect it at all.

"All of the scions of the Darling family, without exception, have been affected as well. Fortunately, you’re not in the country."

Nathan specifically mentioned the situation with the Darling family. He knew that Danielle was very likely by his boss’s side. She was an important figure who could offer Nathan protection. noveldrama

"Poisoned?" David raised his eyebrows, his gaze shifting slightly.
