Chapter 217: The Problem Can&##x27;t Be Me

The police needed to investigate and collect evidence, so they asked Sharon and Ruben to go back.

If there was any news, they would be notified immediately.

After they left the police station, it was already dark.

Sharon said, "Ruben, do you plan to stay at school during the holidays?"

Ruben did not answer immediately.

He thought for a moment before saying, "Starting from tomorrow, I will go to your studio."

"What?"

Sharon was astounded for a moment before she reacted.

Ruben was worried about her because of what had happened recently.

"No need, no one has come to cause trouble anymore.I'm worried about you instead.I'll rent a house
for you for the holidays."

"No need.I'll rent one myself."

Hearing this, Sharon laughed and said, "Isn't it the same?"

Ruben turned his head and said, "I can earn money now."

Sharon smiled and didn't continue to argue with him about who would rent the house.

She only asked, "Then where are you going to rent it? I'll go with you to find a house tomorrow
morning."



"No need.I've selected one."

Two hours later.

Daniel opened the door and looked at the two people standing outside.

His face was full of surprise.

"Who are you?"

Sharon rubbed her nose and said, "Sorry, my brother is in his a winter vacation.He wants to rent a
house.Is this convenient for you?"

"This..."

"I will pay the rent,’ Ruben said.

"No, young man, it's not a matter about the rent."

Daniel thought for a long time before he came up with an excuse.

"I grew up abroad, and some of my personal habits and tastes may differ from yours.I'm afraid I'll make
you feel uncomfortable, So..."

"It doesn't matter.I also like canned food." Daniel was lost for words.

This was the worst excuse he had ever found in his life.

Seeing Ruben pull the suitcase in, Sharon kept the door open and said apologetically, "I'm sorry,
Daniel.Something happened to me recently.My brother was a little worried about me, so he came to
stay with you.Don't worry.I will convince him to move away as soon as possible."



Daniel came to himself and asked, "What happened to you? Do you need my help?"

"It's not a big deal.It's almost settled.I'm really sorry."

"Ms.Allyson, let your brother live here at ease.Don't pay any rent.As neighbors, we should help each
other."

Sharon said, "Thank you.If you don't mind, you can come to our place for dinner at any time in the
future."

"If that's the case, I'll take advantage of it."

Daniel turned around and looked at her.

"Ms.Allyson, I'll take your brother to the guest room.We'll talk later."

"Okay, thank you."

After closing the door, Daniel walked to the living room and said to Ruben when pointing at the two
empty rooms, "You can choose either of the two rooms."

Ruben nodded.

"Thank you."

Very quickly, he added, "I will not touch anything in your house, nor will I mess with your privacy.I will
only stay for a month at most.As an apology, you can make a request to me."

Daniel sat on the sofa with his hands in his pockets and smiled, "Don't be so reserved.Since you've
been here, make yourself at home.Go put your things away."

"Thank you." Ruben nodded to him.



Ten minutes later, Ruben came out of the guest bedroom.

Daniel took a can of beer from the fridge and tossed it to him.

"Is this the first day of your vacation? How was your exam?"

"Not bad."

"I seem to have heard that you did well in your studies.It seems that you are being modest."

Ruben pulled his lower lip and didn't say anything.Daniel sat opposite him and opened the beer in his
hand.

"May I ask if your sister has been in any trouble lately?"

"Someone went to her studio to cause trouble."

"Who do you think may cause trouble?"

"It's not may."

Ruben pursed his lips and said, "They have come to me.Although the plan has failed, they will
definitely make another move."

Daniel didn't expect such a thing to happen.

He paused for a moment before saying, "Is there no one else in your family other than you and your
sister? I don't think I've ever heard her mention it."

Ruben's expression was cold.

"No."



Daniel saw that he didn't seem to want to talk about this topic, so he did not continue asking.

He stood up and said, "I'm going out.You can use whatever you want in this house."

Before Daniel left, he told Ruben the password to the house.

Stella Technologies.

Daniel waved his hand in front of Trey.

"I'm talking to you.Do you hear me?"

Trey was a little dazed and pinched his nose, "What did you say?"

"I said that what happened to Sharon is very strange.Did you go investigate what happened?"

"I did, but there wasn't much useful information."

Daniel said slowly, "I don't think it's that simple.Sharon is just a woman, so she can't offend anyone."

Trey was stunned for a moment before he understood what he meant.

"Do you mean that the person who planned all of this wanted to deal with Jameson?"

"This is just my guess."

Daniel tapped the armrest of the sofa with his fingers and narrowed his eyes.

"Jameson's revocation on the marriage has caused the Beale family to lose face.They can't touch
Jameson, so it's possible to vent their anger on Sharon."

"Do you think it is Talon?"



"The possibility is very high.I will find out what Natalia thinks again some time later and see what she
will say."

Trey didn't say anything else.

He lowered his head and was lost in thought.

Daniel could not help but ask, "What happened to you today?"

Trey shook his head.

"Nothing much.Perhaps it was because I didn't get a good rest last night."

"I also heard that Natalia might be engaged to Jeffery."

"Jeffery ...Jameson's brother?"

Daniel replied, "But the news hasn't been confirmed yet.I still can't understand why Talon made such a
condition at this time.Logically speaking, we haven't done anything yet.Isn't his reaction too fast?"

Trey glanced at him and said, "Perhaps he thinks you are unreliable."

Daniel said in a certain tone.

"The problem can't be me."

Trey didn't say anything.

"Something must have happened that scared Talon or made him feel a sense of danger.That's why he
had to make peace with the Proctor family in order to stabilize the situation."

As soon as Daniel finished speaking, his phone rang.The call was from Natalia.He waved it at Trey.



"Look, I told you it wasn't my problem."

Trey said, "You should think of a way to stop Natalia from marrying into the Proctor family.Although the
Proctor family is currently under Jameson's control, once they get married, it won't be so easy for us to
follow the plan."

Daniel smiled and said, "Don't worry.Natalia thinks highly of herself.She definitely won't marry Jeffery."
