Chapter 205 - Earn The Demon Lord's Wrath



It turned out that Daniel did see Cassidy around.

Ever since the day he\'d been asked to tour her around the branch company, he\'s seen her somewhere in the building on more than one occassion. There\'s a time when he found her talking with Adrian\'s bodyguards. He recalls that one of them is named Seven. Another time was when she was in the office of his secretary, Charles, who happened to be absent for almost a week. 

​​

After a while, Daniel finally managed to gather the courage to approach Cassidy again. By now, he had talked with her more than once, but since she\'d always get taken away, their conversations would only last for a few minutes. 

Seven and the others were usually the ones who did that. They\'d often call her in a friendly yet polite way before leading her to wherever she\'s supposed to meet up with Adrian. From time to time, the other officials who\'re higher than employees like him would greet her with utmost respect for some reason.

\'Perhaps, Ma\'am Cassidy isn\'t really what she seems, after all,\' was what he thought. 

Ever since Daniel met Cassidy, he also learned that the man he looks up to so much is actually a coin with two sides -

One is the stern and strict perfectionist that everyone knows while the other is the complete opposite. Whenever Cassidy is around, his iciness will melt away at once. Adrian will turn into someone who\'s always smiling, which is definitely unusual of him. He also allowed displays of affection like hugging and holding hands.

\'That kinda gets me thinking. Are they in a relationship? If they are, isn\'t this infidelity, then? I mean, I recall that the President is already married, and I remember that his wife has been missing in action for years. Even before that, I didn\'t see them together that much. I only know very little about Mrs. Millicent as well.\'

At times, Daniel will get to see how protective Adrian seems to be over Cassidy. He caught him glaring at some men who tried to flirt with her, scaring them away before going straight back to being all smiley when she looked at him again.

\'Perhaps, he just cares about her that much. I do hope that he will not disapprove of me, though.\'

Apparently, Daniel wanted to ask Cassidy out.

After several more instances of spending time with her - short as some may have been, he had developed a crush on her. Then again, she is cheerful, sweet, funny, and not to mention, really beautiful. She\'s exactly his type. 

It had taken a trip to the flower shop across the street to buy a bouquet of chrysanthemums, five cans of energy drink, and a twenty-minute peptalk to himself in the mirror. Now, Daniel is in the elevator - on his way to the top floor where Cassidy is most likely at right now. 

That\'s where the office of his boss is, after all.

\'It\'s now or never!\'

The elevator doors opened as it reached his destination. Taking a deep breath, he then stepped out. And to his delight, he saw how a lock of bright scarlet-red hair disappear around the corner. Knowing that it\'s her, he gave chase and rounded the corner until he found her entering the office of his boss. 

"Ma\'am Cassidy!"

Daniel tried to call out to Cassidy, but the door already slam closed. He pouted as he stood there in the hallway, contemplating whether he should leave or wait for her to come out. 

"You better not be planning to give those flowers to Ma\'am Cassidy." 

Surprised, Daniel yelped and whirled around to find Charles making his way to him. He\'s looking at the bouquet of flowers he\'s carrying as if they\'re a potential catalyst for a bloody war. 

"S-Sir Charles! I wasn\'t-"

"Yeah, you were. Don\'t deny it," Charles cut Daniel off, making him wince at his bluntness as well as the pitiful look he is giving him which he honestly dislikes but is too mortified to say anything about it.

"A-Alright. Maybe I was planning on giving these to Ma\'am Cassidy," Daniel admitted timidly to which Charles sighed and shook his head.

"The President won\'t like that, you know."

"Why would that matter?! Cassidy is an adult, so why do I need his approval?! Besides, if she\'ll actually give me a chance, I\'m sure I\'ll be able to prove to him how I\'m more than good enough for her!" 

It seemed like Cassidy\'s boldness was rubbing off on Daniel. Despite his passionate declaration, though, Charles only let out a snort. 

"You really don\'t know, huh?" he snickered, much to his confusion.

"Know what?" he asked, trying not to flinch when he grabbed his arm and pulled him along. 

"See for yourself."

Charles took Daniel to a small window that could let them have a look in Adrian\'s office. It has these blinders that block most of the view, but if they find a certain angle, it will provide them a glimpse of what is happening in there. 

Daniel squinted and saw Adrian standing in front his office desk.

He had taken off his suit jacket and loosened his necktie for a bit. At the moment, he is peering intently at his tablet. Cassidy is sitting on top of the table behind him while watching him in silence. 

Then, all of the sudden, she reaches out to Adrian and clutches his arm, making him turn around. She beams at him while batting her eyelashes innocently, which makes him grin in return. With a smitten look, he then holds the sides of her face and pulls her in for a kiss. 

"Wait! He kissed her?!"

Right then, Daniel feels his eyes bulging wide and his jaw dropping on the floor. Thunderstruck, he could only watch his boss and his crush pull away. The two then look into each other\'s eyes with those loving smiles before he leans in and kisses her again. 

"W-W-What?! Huh?! T-The President?! And M-Ma\'am Cassidy?!" Daniel tried to exclaim something intelligible but was too taken aback to do so. 

"Yeah, well, Ma\'am Cassidy is the President\'s wife," Charles said and nodded. 

"His wife?! She is his wife?! Seriously?! B-But I thought... I thought she\'s missing or something! And Mrs. Millicent doesn\'t look like Ma\'am Cassidy at all! As far as I remember, she used to be so timid and reserved! Not friendly and sociable!"

Charles only watches Daniel all through his outburst, finding his denseness and oblivion dangerous enough to earn Adrian\'s wrath - good thing he arrived before the demon lord in him could shed some blood.
