The guard knew that Lisa had been good recently and hadn’t tried to run away. He was worried that if she really was sick and passed it on to the clients, they would get in trouble, so he agreed. When they got to a clinic nearby, Lisa told the doctor about her symptoms. The doctor took a look at her and seemed to have heard of the symptoms. “You need to get a blood test.”Lisa went inside with the doctor.The guard stood outside and waited. It would be hard for her to escape the black market, so he thought that she wouldn’t be trying anything. The doctor took her blood, and Lisa asked him, “How long would I need to wait for the result?”“20 minutes.” The doctor took the vials of her blood and walked out. Lisa looked at the phone on the desk and glanced outside. She then quickly picked up the phone to give Julianna a call.When she found out where Julianna was, Lisa hung up and walked out. The guard was on his phone. She carefully said, “I didn’t bring any money. Is there a b
The novel had become a bestseller online for years and later on was published overseas as physical books.Daisie had read it two years ago but couldn’t remember where. She had been under the impression that the author was a man.Freyja felt uncomfortable because she kept staring at her. “Why are you staring at me?”Daisie supported her head with her hands. “I’m curious. Why did you join the Drama, Theatre, and Film course?”Freyja answered, “Because I like to perform. Writing is just so I can earn some money.”Daisie was curious. “Do you need to make your own money?”She was Nollace’s cousin. Even if her mother was not a royal, they were related to them, so it didn’t make sense if she was born poor. Freyja smiled. “Do you think everyone is like you? You’re the little princess that everyone loves at home, so you won’t have issues with money, but I’m different.”She looked sad after saying that.Her mother was born out of the royal family, so it meant that she was the outcome o
He wasn’t expecting to find out that Julianna had been locked up in the black market. He was well aware of what kind of place the black market was. If news of his daughter being there was leaked, her future would be ruined.He was going to make a police report when his assistant brought over a flash drive. “Sir, someone asked to hand this to you.”Joshua took it and waved for his assistant to leave. He hesitated before plugging it into his computer. It was surveillance footage. It clearly showed how the people from the black market had caught his daughter, and his face turned dark. At that moment, in the car parked not too far away from Julianna’s home, Nollace looked out the window. Edison got into the car and looked into the mirror. “Sir, I’ve handed the flash drive.”Nollace looked back in and rolled up the window. “Did she leak the news about Julianna in the black market?”‘She’ was referring to Lisa. Edison nodded. “After she escaped, I found out that she went to a h
Daisie looked at him. “How did you know?”Nollace didn’t answer. If he told Daisie he was behind it, he was afraid she might be afraid of him and might stay away.He only showed Daisie the positive side and kept the cruel side for the rest of the world. He never wanted to let Daisie know his dark side or the tactics he used. But the way Daisie looked at him, her clear eyes were so pure he didn’t dare look into them. He was afraid that he would see his actual self through them. He raised his hand and covered her eyes. “Don’t look at me that way.”Daisie pushed him away. “Why not?”Nollance leaned in and joked. “If you continue staring, I’ll kiss you.”That worked. Daisie stopped staring while she blushed. After sending Daisie back to the dormitory and when Nollace was leaving, someone stared at him from afar.Nollace walked over. “How long have you been standing here, Mr. Goldmann?”Colton crossed his arms and coldly said, “How did you let Lisa that disaster out? Why didn
Even if she did not believe it, she would go to check it out at the black market.As long as Daisie came to the black market, Lisa would use the same method and make Daisie experience the same thing she did to Julianna.Sometimes, words were a better weapon than a sword to destroy a person. Freyja herself knew how powerful words were. Unfortunately, it was not Daisie who had fallen into her trap but Julianna. She had stepped into the trap herself, and if she still couldn't see through Lisa's true nature after this incident, then no one could help her anymore.In the end, the college authority deleted the video because it had brought too much trouble to the college. However, everyone already knew about it. On top of that, Lisa was the Knowles’ adopted daughter, so everyone showed excessive interest in talking about the matter. Lisa did not know anything about it. She tried to kill herself by cutting her wrist and lured Tristan to the hospital. After the doctor told Tristan
“There’s no need to rush things.” He closed the menu and handed it to the waiter. “We can go after we finish our meal.”Daisie hesitated for a moment and asked, “Didn’t you arrange a place for Lisa to stay? Then why would she…”Nollace pushed a glass of juice to her and chimed in. “Do you really think I'd do that for her?”Daisie was stumped.Nollace then replied, “That was just an excuse so that she would leave the Knowles willingly.” Daisie had no idea why but she heaved a sigh of relief when she heard that Nollace had not arranged a place for Lisa. She would not feel comfortable if Nollace did everything Lisa demanded and treated her too nicely. After all, she did not like Lisa, and she did not want Nollace to be so nice to Lisa. Suddenly, she thought of something and asked, “Hold on a second. Are you the one who sent her to the black market?”Nollace froze and lifted his head to look into her clear eyes. “Do you wish I was the one who did it?”Daisie lowered her head an
Daisie thought Nollace had asked the waiter to pass the note to her, so she got to her feet and headed to the parking lot.When she arrived at the parking lot, she looked around but couldn’t see Nollace.Just as she pulled her phone out to call Nollace, someone snuck up to her from her back and covered her nose with a handkerchief.He then dragged her into the car. Her phone dropped to the ground, and the call was connected.By the time Nollace returned to the restaurant, Daisie was already gone. When he saw the note on the table, his face sank. He stopped a waiter and ordered, “Bring me to the surveillance room! Hurry!” A car was traveling fast on the road. Nollace had found the information about the owner of the car through the car plate.It was Lara's driver.He made a call to Edison and barked out his order coldly, “Get me Ken.”…When Daisie cracked her eyes open, she found that her hands were tied. Before she could realize what had happened, someone pushed the door o
Lara stared at her. This was the first time she didn't see any fear in someone's eyes after being threatened with disfigurement.She leaned closer to her and grabbed her hair. “Do you really think I won’t do it?”Daisie hissed in pain and smiled weakly. “As long as you untie me, I assure you that I won’t get angry no matter what you do to me.”Lara turned around to look at the people behind her.The man received her signal and pulled a knife out to cut the rope.However, at the moment the rope dropped to the ground, Daisie grabbed the man’s wrist and snatched the knife out of his hand.After that, she scrambled up from the ground and pounced at Lara. She put the knife on Lara’s neck and snarled, “Stand back!” The group of men did not dare to take a single step forward.Lara froze. The chilly sensation that she felt from her neck caused her face to turn pale with fright. “H-How dare you attack me!? I’m telling you. If I die, you won’t get out of here alive either!”Lara had un
