Daisie had grown up in a very protective household, just like a delicate flower that was raised in a greenhouse and had never experienced a single storm in its life. So, how could she have seen such cruelties?That was especially so when he was related to why Ayan got tortured in the first place.Another reason Nollace did not dare to tell Daisie about Ayan was that he was worried she would learn about his involvement.That was why he had only left his good side to Daisie.At the same time, on the other side of the city, in the Pruitt manor…The sound of a slap resounded in the living room.Freyja’s face was turned to the side, and her cheek flushed.She did not scream out of pain but listened to Sandy’s reprimand. “Just whose side are you on? Your brother’s plan almost succeeded, and you’ve ruined it!”As long as Daisie and Nollace could no longer get along because of this incident, Ken would have the opportunity to use this incident to get a hold of the daughter of the Goldma
“She’s stubborn and won’t behave. So what if I lock her up for two days? Do you feel bad?” Sandy looked cold. Brandon frowned. “She’s your daughter.”She stopped what she was doing and looked up. “I’m doing this because she’s my daughter. She doesn’t respect me.”Brandon wanted to say something, but the housekeeper walked over anxiously, “Ma’am, Ms. Vanderbilt is here.”Sandy paused, then laughed. “I guess the Goldmann princess is worried about my daughter. Let her in.”Before the housekeeper could invite her, Daisie had already walked in. “Where’s Freyja?”She left her manners at the door. Sandy looked at her. “Ms. Vanderbilt, Fey isn’t feeling well and is resting. I don’t think she should be entertaining guests.”She slowly got up. “Have you had lunch? I’ll get them to prepare something—”“I’m not here for lunch.” Daisie went straight to the point. “You locked up Freyja, didn’t you?”Sandy’s expression froze while she looked toward the maids standing at the side. They did
Daisie kicked over the decorations on the cabinet. The china and expensive goods shattered into pieces.Sandy shook with anger upon seeing her precious collections treated that way, “A-Are you insane!?”“If you want to know if the Goldmanns are crazy, just look at what happened to the Reeses.”Daisie picked up the teapot made of jade from the table. “You’ve been an eyesore for a long time now. I don’t understand why an old woman like you is causing trouble instead of just enjoying the rest of your life. Do you want everyone to know that the illegitimate child of royalty is using her son to climb the social ladder?”Her words stabbed straight into her heart. Daisie mocked Sandy, yet she wasn’t able to retaliate. “Don’t you think that I’m easy to manipulate? I’ll show you how wild I can be.” Daisie loosened her grip, and the expensive jade teapot fell to the floor and split into two.Sandy grabbed her chest and had difficulty breathing. Her voice cracked. “Do you know how expensiv
Daisie walked into the room with a fruit basket. Freyja turned to see her. She placed the basket on the counter. “I guess you won’t be able to attend the anniversary event. You probably need to be here for about half a month more.”Freyja smiled. “Thank you.”“Don’t say that.” She sat on the chair. “You helped me before.”Freyja chuckled. “I guess we’re even then.”Soon after that, Daisie walked out of the room and into the busy corridor when she suddenly saw a familiar person.Wasn’t that Nollace’s bodyguard, Edison?She quietly followed them and saw that he was at the hospital’s A-wing. He entered a room quickly, but what was curious was that there were two bodyguards outside that room.Daisie hid behind a wall and couldn’t go closer, so she could only wait for someone to exit. After a few minutes, Edison opened the door and walked out. Before the door closed, she saw the person lying in bed.It was Ayan.Daisie paused and remembered that Nollace had said he was the only
When Daisie, who was hiding behind the car, heard that, she stood up. “You have no dignity!”Edison jumped. “Ms. Vanderbilt!?”Daisie quickly walked to the car, leaned on the door, and looked at him. “You’re planning to live with us and spend our money and take everything!”Nollace chuckled as he stared at her innocent and beautiful face. “If the family fortune can survive the three of you, it can survive me too.”Daisie puffed up her cheeks. “You’re trying to say that my brothers and I spend too much money?”Nollace couldn’t help but smile and pinch her cheek. “You alone are enough trouble. Why else would you go trash up the Pruitts’ home?”She paused and suddenly felt ashamed. “I was angry. How could that old woman bully her like that?”No one noticed that Edison had left.Nollace opened the door, pulled her into the car so that she would sit on his lap, and whispered into her ear, “How long were you eavesdropping?”Daisie was ashamed that she had been caught eavesdropping,
Nollace lifted Daisie’s chin before touching her forehead with his. “Daisie, if one day you realize that I’m someone who would do anything to get what I want, would you be afraid of me?”Daisie paused and didn’t speak. Nollace didn’t push her for an answer and let go of her. “Are you leaving, or will you spend more time with Freyja?”“I’m going home.” She then looked at Nollace, “I would understand.”Nollace was surprised.If she said that she wouldn’t be afraid, he would think she was just brushing him off, but she said she would understand.Nollace sent her to the Hilton Villas. Daisie opened the door, remembered something, and looked back at him. “You should keep an eye out for Ken Pruitt too.”Nollace was momentarily silent before flashing a smile. “Yes, ma’am.”After watching her go into the villa, Nollace stopped smiling, and his face dropped, “It’s time that I visit my aunt.”…Sandy was still in the hospital, and her expression changed when she saw Nollace enter. “Wh
Nollace knew what she was going to say. A faint smile appeared on his face as he said, “I won’t do anything to Ken.”Sandy let out a snort. Just when she was about to say something, Nollace’s face turned grim as he continued, “But it doesn’t mean that other people won’t do anything to him.”Her face turned pale. “What do you mean?”She pounced at Nollace and grabbed him by his collar tightly. “I warn you, Nollace. If you dare to lay your finger on my son, I'll make you and your mother experience what it means to live a life worse than death!”“I guess you should keep that for yourself.” Nollace pried his collar out of her grip. There was no expression on his face as he continued indifferently. “What do you think will happen if everyone learns that it's Ken who killed Mr. Reese? I think it's going to be very interesting.” All colors drained from Sandy’s face.‘How does he know about that!?’Her voice began to tremble as he said, “What the hell are you talking about? You don’t ha
Daisie fell silent after Freyja mentioned Deedee.She had to take care of her brother’s daughter, so it was true that she couldn’t spend her money freely. Colton turned around and said, “You don’t have to pay for it.” Then, he left the ward.In the end, Freyja was "forcefully" moved to the VIP inpatient department on the 16th floor. Since the ward was located on a higher floor, it received more sunlight. The sound insulation was a lot better, and the corridor was empty. It was not as noisy as the ward downstairs and was a suitable environment for recuperation.Daisie looked at Colton. She was kind of surprised that her brother would spend money on someone other than her. After all, not everyone could make her brother spend money for them.However, she was kind of happy as well. At the very least, Colton had already started to warm up to Freyja.Colton received a call and went up to answer it.Freyja went closer to her and whispered. “Is there something wrong with your brother
