novelxo Chapter 37
Everyone knew Daniel was a fearless and utterly lawless person. However, instead of saying a word in front of Harold, he bowed respectfully and explained with a terrified face.
Even though it was getting close to autumn, Daniel still broke into a sweat because of the person in front of him.
He was scared.
To be more accurate, he was frightened to the core.
The words that his father told him yesterday were still fresh in his mind. He knew that this young man was more connected than he thought.
Initially, Daniel planned to retreat under any circumstances and wherever he encountered this mysterious man.
However, he never thought that this man would come directly to their company. It had only been a day before he had to face this man.
At this moment, he was stuck at a crossroad with no directions. He did not know whether he should run away or face it.
After all, he knew that if he did, it would inevitably lead to the end of Larson Corporation.
At Daniel's actions, everyone at the scene was dumbfounded as an incredulous expression painted their faces.
They could not believe that Daniel, the Prince of Dellmoor and son of Dellmoor's richest man, would bow his head and apologize to an unknown person, and on his own territory too.
They watched him tremble and sweat profusely as if he had encountered something more terrifying than a scary beast.
"Who is that? Why does Mr. Daniel need to show him so much respect?"
"I don't know. It's the first time I've seen Mr. Daniel so afraid of a person. He looks more afraid of this man than he is of his father."
The onlookers around began to whisper to each other.
Meanwhile, the receptionist and the security guards were muttering nervously to themselves as they kept backing away in disbelief.
"Ahhh!" the receptionist exclaimed loudly. It seemed she had tripped over while backing up and fallen onto the ground.
However, no one dared to give her help.
Instantly, the smug look in her eyes changed to panic and despair.
Only then did she realize that this young man she had stopped and picked on had such a prominent background that even Daniel was afraid when he saw him!
Shit! I'm doomed. She started having a mental breakdown as she trembled uncontrollably.
The sympathetic looks everyone had been shooting toward Harold had now shifted to the receptionist, and they began to pity her.
"Oh, so you're Daniel Larson. I'm here to see your dad. The old fart is quite the arrogant man, isn't he? I need an appointment to even see him." Harold looked at Daniel, who was trembling before him, and spoke calmly. His tone held no blame, but neither was it forgiving.
Far too many people had shivered before him in a similar manner, so he had long been used to it and was numb.
Hence, he was unwilling to bother himself with it.
"Oh, you're looking for my dad? He's in the office; I'll take you there. No, wait, I'll tell him to come down and meet you!"
Daniel heaved a sigh of relief as soon as he realized that Harold did not mean to blame him but was only here to look for his father. Daniel then turned around and prepared to call his father down.
As for Harold calling his father an "old fart," he had no choice but to ignore it.
As long as their lives and Larson Corporation were safe, it did not matter what Harold would call his father.
"Forget about it. I'm not that pretentious; just take me directly to his office." Harold hurriedly stopped Daniel when he saw the latter turn around to leave.
And so, Daniel left with Harold under the disbelieving gazes of all the onlookers.
Since the onlookers had blocked Brittany, Kayden, and Gary's view, the three of them had no idea what had just happened.
