Diana scoffed, “That’s true. She won’t be able to take Daisie’s place as long as I’m around.”Meanwhile, at the college…Daisie and Freyja were having their meal in the canteen when she suddenly got a call from Diana, who asked her to go over for dinner with Nollace. After the call ended, Freyja smiled and said, “I guess my aunt already treats you as her daughter-in-law.”Daisie blushed when she heard the word ‘daughter-in-law’. “You need to stuff more food in your mouth.”The people sitting at the next table were talking about how Zenovia became the god-granddaughter of the king because the news spread everything, and Zenovia was cast under the limelight.After Daisie heard that, she looked toward Freyja.Freyja looked up. “What’s wrong?”Daisie shook her head and lowered her eyes. “Don't you care?”Freyja was the king’s granddaughter, but the king would rather take someone with no blood relation to him as his granddaughter. That was ironic. Freyja drank her drink and look
Sandy did not get anything after giving birth to Ken, and Ken’s identity was not recognized. That was the cause of Sandy's hatred for William’s legal wife and Nollace’s mother, Diana.Even though Diana had never made things difficult for Sandy and accepted Ken and Freyja, it did not mean that she could forgive her father for his mistake. Nollace walked into the living room, and Diana was talking happily with Daisie. Everyone with eyes could see that Diana adored Daisie very much.He pulled the chair and took a seat. Rick put down the newspaper and asked, “What do you think about Ms. Livingston, Nollace?”When they heard the question, Diana and Daisie turned their heads around to look at him.Nollace replied, “It doesn’t matter what I think. What matters is how Grandpa thinks. He's stubborn, and no one, including me, can change his mind after he makes a decision.”Diana’s face sank as she chimed in. “In my opinion, your grandfather just has too much time in his hands.”Daisie wa
“Yes.” Nollace went closer to her and said, “She prepared all of this for you, Daisie.”Daisie lowered her head. She did not know where she should look, and her cheeks were red. “Thank you. I like it very much.”Nollace wrapped his arm around her waist and pulled her into his chest. She swallowed hard and pressed her lips tightly. Her eyelashes were trembling, and her heart was jumping wildly. “Nolly, you— Ugh!”He leaned forward and planted a kiss on her lips. Daisie clenched her fists tightly on his chest, and his tongue slipped into her mouth when she opened her mouth to breathe.She could barely stand right now. She stumbled toward the back, and they fell on the bed.Nollace propped himself up with a hand and protected the back of her head with the other.She stopped breathing for a moment and became even more nervous.The warm white light showered on the bed. Nollace looked at her reddened cheeks fixedly and said, “Daisie.”“Yeah?” she replied in a low voice.Both of th
Diana smiled and replied, “I guess he hasn’t woken up yet. I think he must have had a good night's sleep since you stayed overnight.”Daisie was stunned. “Does he always wake up early?”“Yeah. He wakes up very early every day,” Diana sighed as she placed her hand on her forehead. “Other parents want their kids to be independent, but Nollace is overly independent. Sometimes, he's too hard on himself, making me worry about him.”Daisie sipped on a cup of milk without saying anything.Nollace only woke up when the clock hit nine. He went downstairs and asked Peter, “Where are my mother and Daisie?”Peter replied, “Madam and Ms. Vanderbilt are upstairs.”Nollace narrowed his eyes, and suddenly, his mother’s voice wafted into his ear. “See? I told you that you would look good in this dress.”Daisie lifted her dress and asked, “But… Don’t you think this dress is a bit too formal?”When she raised her head, she rammed into Nollace’s eyes. Daisie could see her reflection through Noll
There were all sorts of news about Zenovia, and everyone was shocked when the king announced that he would take her in as his "god-granddaughter.”Besides, it was rumored that she had become the third wheel in the relationship between Nollace and Daisie, so everyone was anticipating a good show when the two "heroines” of the scandals met in the auction. Zenovia did not expect that Daisie would come to the auction with Diana. Even though she was not happy about it, she did not allow her emotions to escape to her face.She walked up to them with a smile on her face and greeted, “Mrs. Knowles, I'm very happy to meet you here. I never had the chance to talk to you last time to clear up the misunderstanding you had about me—”Diana interrupted her. “Do you think you have a chance right now?”Zenovia was stunned.Without giving her a chance to say anything, Diana continued. “You don’t get it? You don't have to creep up my sleeve and don't need to say anything like wanting me to know y
In other words, what Zenovia was trying to say was that the Knowles had chosen Daisie because of her family. If it were in the past, Daisie would jump in anger when she heard what Zenovia said, but right now, she just chuckled and turned her head around to look at her. “Do you have a lot of free time, Ms. Livingston?”Zenovia was stunned. “What do you mean?”Daisie said, “If not, why do you have so much time to poke your nose into other people’s affairs?”Zenovia was stumped.Daisie then continued. “What's wrong with me relying on my family? I can do whatever I want. Or do you want me to rely on an outsider like how you rely on the king? Do you not have a family? That’s why you can only rely on an outsider?”Zenovia’s expression changed, and she said through gritted teeth, “Are you mocking me?”Turning around, Daisie looked at her and smiled. “Yes, I’m just giving you a taste of your own medicine. I know what you’re trying to do. You want me to think that Nollace chose to be wi
What kind of jewelry had the daughter of the Goldmanns not seen before? So, why would she steal other people’s items?Diana’s face dimmed in an instant. “What do you mean by that?”Upon seeing Diana’s expression, those present knew that Diana was extremely irritated. The identities of all three parties were off the charts. Thus, anyone who said anything at this moment might only cause unnecessary trouble.Zenovia’s eyes were bloodshot. “Mrs. Knowles, I didn’t mean to lie to you. You can ask Ms. Vanderbilt. I did get into contact with her just now.”Diana stared at Daisie.Daisie nodded. “Aunt Diana, she did approach me and said a few words when I was grabbing myself some food.”Diana took a deep breath. She believed Daisie and suddenly felt that this matter was not as simple as it seemed.Daisie then glanced at Zenovia and asked calmly, “Do you mean that I’m the one who took your necklace?”“I’m not sure, but my necklace disappeared after I talked to you. Ms. Vanderbilt, I know
“Ms. Livingston, you’ve gone through every inch of my clutch. Is the item that you’re looking for in there?” Daisie asked with a smirk.‘When the waiter knocked the clutch off me and handed it back, I was just about to place my phone back in the clutch, but I unexpectedly found a necklace of unknown origin inside.‘I’ve always been carrying this clutch with me all the time, and it‘s never left my sight, so I know exactly what’s in it. The extra necklace made me realize that the waiter might be onto something. Fortunately, I took the necklace out of the clutch.‘After all, I didn’t want to cause any trouble and embarrass Aunt Diana. I planned to go to the front desk to ask about the lost necklace when I was about to leave.‘That’s why it felt too coincidental when Zenovia brought up the disappearance of her necklace all of a sudden. It turns out that the series of incidents happened only because she wanted to frame me.’Zenovia could not believe it and reached out, intending to go
“Daisie.” Leah and Morrison walked up to her with wine glasses. “You look so pretty today.”“Thank you,” Daisie said with a smile.Leah lifted her wine glass. “I propose a toast. Morrison and I wish you a happy marriage.”Daisie clinked glasses with her. “Same goes for you and Morrison.”After the toast, Cameron walked up to Daisie with Waylon. Behind them were Freyja, Colton, Maisie, and Nolan.Maisie raised her hand and caressed her on the cheek. “You were great earlier today.”She giggled. “Really?”Nolan added, “You’ll forever be our dazzling pride, so yes.”Daisie grinned as if she was still the little princess of the family.Nollace came over. “Dad, Mom, a toast to the both of you. Thank you for letting me have Daisie’s hand.”“Consider yourself lucky.” Nolan snorted softly, picked up his wine glass, and clinked glasses with him. “You’d better treat my daughter well from now on.”Nollace glanced at Daisie. “Don’t worry. She’ll forever be my one and only.”Maisie chuck
In order to make way for the wedding carriage, other vehicles had been forbidden from accessing the route from the palace to the cathedral.Daisie looked out of the carriage—the streets were crowded with citizens, and they were all there to witness this grand scene.Nollace, sitting on the side, was wearing a double-breasted dark blue military jacket. He looked tall and broad, and there were two St. Patrick’s Stars on his epaulets, one on each side, a full set of medals on his chest, and other complicated decorations.He held the back of Daisie’s hand and smiled suddenly. “You have sweaty palms.”Daisie looked back at him and responded with a trembling voice, “I’m nervous.”He lifted her hand and kissed the back of her hand. “I’m here, so don’t be nervous. Just take it easy.”Daisie’s gaze landed on his wedding jacket. “You look nice in this uniform.”Nollace chuckled. “And my bride looks stunning too.”Arriving at the cathedral, Nollace was separated from Daisie. Accompanied b
“By the way, where’s Cameron?” asked Morrison.Waylon replied, “She’s accompanying her father on a stroll. I’m going to go meet them already, so I’ll leave you to yourselves for now. You can do whatever you want with your free time.”After saying that, he got up and left the couple.Morrison shook his head. “He’s changed now that he has a wife.”“You’re speaking as if you haven’t changed.” Leah got up instantly and left the restaurant.Morrison put his cup down and caught up to her immediately. “Hey, why would you leave me behind? Wait for me.”Maisie and Saydie came out of the private room and ran into Nolan and Quincy in the corridor.Quincy nodded. “Mrs. Goldmann.”Maisie stopped in front of Nolan, and Nolan grabbed her by her hand. “Have you finished catching up?”“Of course. Didn’t you want to go to the Hathaways’ villa with Dad in the afternoon?”Nolan smiled. “I was waiting for you. We’re just going over to have a meal together.”Quincy walked up to Saydie’s side and
Daisie grinned from ear to ear. “Then I’ll wear this crown on my wedding day, which can be considered an endorsement for my mom’s jewelry company and design.”Nollace hugged her from behind. “You can do anything as long as you like it.”…The members of the Goldmanns arrived in Yaramoor two days before the wedding and stayed in the hotel arranged by Nollace. The royal family had reserved the entire hotel for receiving distinguished guests from Zlokova who came to attend the wedding.Members from the Bouchers and the Lucases showed up, and Sunny was also present.There were also some familiar faces from the Zlokovian entertainment industry. Hannah, Amy, James, and Charlie, who were close friends with Daisie, all came.Leah and Morrison were also on the invitation list.When Maisie came to the restaurant, the waiter led her into a private room.As soon as she saw the man sitting inside, she smiled and exclaimed, “Godfather!”Strix slowly turned around.She had not seen him for
The rest of the people laughed.The night came, and the entire city was shrouded in a mist of neon light. Daisie and Nollace returned to Taylorton after having their dinner.Her hair was wet as she got out of the shower. Nollace took over her towel and helped her to dry her hair.She sat in front of her dresser and looked at the person behind her through the mirror. There was a smile tugging at the corner of her mouth as she said, “Nolly, I’m really looking forward to our wedding.”“Really?” Nollace gently dried the soft tips of her hair. “I’m looking forward to it too.”“I can say that my life is perfect now, right? Since I can marry and walk down the aisle with the man I love the most.”He laughed out loud and leaned down to her ear. “You know what? All the wishes in my life have come true as well.”Daisie turned her head around. “What are your wishes?”“Marry you, give you a wedding, and have our own kids.”She was stunned. Slowly, her face turned red due to her embarrassme
“Yeah, it’s true,” replied Zephir.“It seems like you’ve finally become more mature after coming back from your vacation.” Naomi patted his shoulder. “I wish you all the best in your future endeavors.” He smiled at her but did not say anything.…Soon, it was the end of the month. Their vacation had come to an end, and they returned to Bassburgh.Maisie and Nolan were waiting for them in the courtyard. After getting out of the car, Daisie ran up to them. “Mommy! Daddy!”She hugged both of them.Nolan petted her head and smiled helplessly. “You’re an adult now. You should stop acting like a kid.”She smiled back at them and said, “But I know I’ll always be your kid in your eyes.”Maisie chuckled and looked at the other people. “It seems like you guys had a lot of fun. Anyway, come in first. We should eat together tonight.”Freyja and Cameron went to look for their kids after they went into the house. Charm and her two cousins were staying in the same room. All of them were sl
Nollace looked at them. “What a coincidence.”“Morrison and I were here earlier than you guys,” said Leah. “We only found out that you guys were here when Daisie posted a photo on her Facebook page.”Daisie pulled Leah to the seat and said, “Then you should stay a few more days with us.”After Morrison took his seat, Waylon introduced him to Freyja and Daisie. “She’s my sister-in-law, Freyja, and she’s my sister. Her name is Daisie.”“I’ve seen them before at your wedding,” said Morrison. “Your sister is my wife’s classmate. She has told me before.”“Since when did I become your wife? There’s a chance I may not marry you in the future,” said Leah.“We’re already engaged. If you don’t want to marry me, who else are you going to marry?” Morrison frowned, causing the crowd to break out in a burst of laughter, save for Daisie.She looked at Leah in disbelief and asked, “Engaged? When did you get engaged, Leah?” Leah cleared her throat and replied, “Well, I forgot to inform you abo
The stall owner said, “$10 for three chances.”“$10 for three chances only? That’s expensive,” commented Freyja.The stall owner raised his head and said, “I’m the cheapest around here. Other stalls offer $15 for three chances.” Daisie tugged at Freyja and said, “Let's just give him the money. It isn't easy for them to set up a stall here anyway, so let's have some fun.”After that, she gave $20 to the stall owner and said, “Please give us six hoops.”The stall owner gave her six hoops. She had her eyes set on a bracelet. Although she knew it was fake, it was rather beautiful. She held a hoop and threw it toward the bracelet.However, she did not get it.She threw another two hoops at the bracelet, but her attempts failed, much to her chagrin. She had only three hoops left.Seeing that Daisie was prepared to give up, Cameron took over the rest of the hoops in her hand and said, “Leave it to me.”She squinted and aimed at the bracelet. After that, she threw the hoop at it an
The night of the old town was silent. The air was filled with nothing but the humming of insects. There was a lamp hanging outside of the tent on the grass. The atmosphere was quiet. Daisie was tossing and turning in the sleeping bag as sleep just wouldn't come to her. Suddenly, an arm appeared across her waist as she was brought into a chest. “What’s the matter? You can’t sleep?”“Yeah…” She buried her head in his chest and said, “I want to go to take a leak, but I’m a little bit scared.”Nollace kissed her forehead and said, “I’ll go with you then.”Both of them came out of the tent. Nollace took a flashlight and led Daisie to a row of trees in the distance. Daisie turned her head and said, “You wait for me here.”Nollace nodded. “Just shout my name if you need anything.”She walked into the forest and stopped in front of a tree not far away from Nollace.After she had done her business, she hastily got out of the forest and held tightly to Nollace’s arm. “Alright, let’s go
