“I don’t even care to intervene.” He scoffed and then added at the end, “But Freyja is one of the members of the Goldmanns now, and you’re not in the position to interfere in her affairs. If you dare to do so again and continue to confuse the public, don’t blame me for not reminding you. After all, even the foundation of the Reeses, a family that sat above you, could be shaken and brought down by the Goldmanns, let alone your family.”Sandy trembled violently as if she had been shocked by electricity, and the blood on her cheeks gradually faded.‘He’s not threatening me based on those empty words. Given the Goldmanns’ strength, he can indeed live up to his words. The Goldmanns and the Hathaways are now one, and the power of the two families will even give the nobles a hard time.’Seeing that Colton was leaving with his men, Sandy stumbled and could only hold on to the wall for support.She gnashed her teeth secretly. “Damn it, that b*tch’s backer is truly powerful.”‘However, alth
Daisie held the back of Freyja’s hand. “You have to trust Colton. He’ll definitely solve this matter. As for Deedee, I know she’s an innocent child too, and Colton won’t just sit by idly and watch as she perishes.”Freyja smiled.Daisie waited for a while before leaving. She walked out of the courtyard, and a familiar car was parked beside the road outside the courtyard.The rear window slowly lowered, and the person in the car was Nollace.The light was reflected on the glass, and he was wearing a white shirt, which was accompanied by his unparalleled appearance.Daisie stopped in front of the car. “How did you know I was here?”She had not told Nollace that she was at Freyja’s.Nollace gave off a faint smile. “I guessed that you’d see the news, and from what I know about you, you’d be here.”Daisie opened the door, got into the car, and whispered, “Is there anything you don’t know about me?”Nollace stroked her hair. “You can learn more about me too.”Speaking of understand
The ring fell to the floor, leaving a soft, crisp sound.Daisie squatted down to pick up the ring and found a small gap in the middle of the ring.She took the ring into her hand and wondered. “How could the ring...”Seeing something, she was stunned for a moment and took the ring apart, revealing a device that was smaller than an ant in front of her eyes.In the study, Nollace sat behind the desk. His fingers were interlocked, and his hands were propped against his chin as he was still thinking about the matter between Donald and Sandy.The screen of his cell phone lit up. He glanced at it and saw a notification informing him that the tracking device had gone offline. He could not help but be astounded.He subconsciously reacted to something in his mind, but Daisie had already pushed open the door.“Nollace Knowles!” She rushed over and slammed the ring he had given her three years ago in front of him. It was obvious that she had discovered the secret hidden in the ring. “You’d
‘I can no longer let her go.’A palm abruptly grasped his fist, and the warmth from the hand filled his silent heart. Nollace was slightly startled. He looked down at Daisie, who had approached him while he was in a daze, and his thin lips were tightly pursed.Daisie lowered her head. “Nollace, I don’t care if you’re perfect or not.”“Really?” Nollace wrapped his arms around her waist, took her into his arms, and lifted her chin. His lips seemed to be moving closer to her cheek, and the scorching breath brushed against her fair skin. “Do you really know me? I’m not as perfect as you think. I’m a very stingy person, I’ve always wished that you would only belong to me, and I always want to gouge out anybody’s eyes whenever they get to feast their eyes on you.”He brushed his five fingers through the ends of her half-dry hair, placed his hands on the back of her head, and rubbed the corners of her lips with his fingertips. “If you get bored of me and abandon me someday, then I really
Daisie shut her mouth, lay obediently on his chest, and tried to get some sleep.Nollace rolled over and hugged her. A thick layer of the quilt was clamped in between her waist and his lower abdomen to prevent them from rubbing against each other. He despised coaxing her with tricks to get her to go all the way with him. What he wanted was her complete willingness.At the same time, in the Comfort Inn…Because Colton had come to visit her earlier today, Sandy did not dare to let her guard down.Sandy packed her luggage and opened the cupboard because it was already midnight. Deedee had been locked in the cupboard for a whole day without getting any food or a drop of water. She was too feeble at the moment.The strong light forced her to open her eyes slightly, and her voice sounded very weak. “Grandma, I’m hungry...”“Hmph! You won’t die from a little hunger.”Sandy dragged her out of the cupboard.Deedee could barely stand still, and the arm that was being grasped by Sandy gra
“You don’t need to apologize.” Colton put his hand on her shoulder. “Spend some time with her. I’ll take care of the rest.”He turned to leave, but Freyja held onto him. Colton turned to look at her. “What’s wrong?”Freyja let go of him, looked away, and pressed her lips together. “Thank you.”Colton looked at her face and asked, “That’s all you want to say?”She nodded. Colton put his hand on the back of her head, pulled her closer, and whispered, “If you really want to thank me, do it with your actions.”Freyja was stunned, but Colton suddenly kissed her lips. He kissed her for a long time before he let her go and left the room. Freyja froze on the spot and could still feel that kiss on her lips. Meanwhile, after Sandy woke up, her neck hurt. She realized that she had been lying on the floor for the entire night, then something came to her mind, and she immediately opened the door. “Deedee!”Deedee wasn’t there anymore. Sandy gnashed her teeth. “Crap!”‘It must have
After ten minutes, the police officer who went to get the footage returned. “Sir, I’ve checked the footage and saw Mr. Goldmann came over with a group of people and left soon after that.”Sandy was overwhelmed. “What about what happened to the footage from yesterday? They attacked me and took my granddaughter!”The police officer looked at her and frowned. “There’s no footage of you getting attacked.”Sandy’s face dropped. “No… that’s impossible!”She yelled, “I was attacked yesterday! How could that not have been recorded!? You must be afraid of the Goldmanns and lied to me!”“Ma’am, you can take a look for yourself if you don’t believe me.”She immediately walked to the manager, who was holding a tablet. The footage had a timestamp on it, and it was showing what happened last night. There was nothing that showed her being attacked.Sandy’s face turned white because she couldn’t believe it. That wasn’t possible!She could not accept it. “No! This must have been tampered with!”
The lawyer said, “Don’t worry, I’m confident in winning this one.”Meanwhile, at the hospital…Deedee slowly started looking more cheerful with Freyja by her side. Freyja was afraid that her mother would have traumatized Deedee, so she took counseling very seriously. Daisie showed up at the door with a little cake, then knocked. Freyja turned around and smiled. “Deedee, this is Aunt Daisie. Say hello.”Deedee no longer remembered Daisie, but she wasn’t as shy as she was before. “Hello.”Daisie walked to the bed, placed the little cake down, smiled, and said, “I got you this little cake because Aunt Fey says you love them.”When she saw Daisie open up the box, Deedee stared at the six slices of chocolate cake and started to salivate. “Can I have some?” she cautiously asked. Freyja was stunned when she heard that. Maybe it was because of Sandy that Deedee had become afraid.Daisie smiled. “Of course you can. I got it for you. Here, have some.”Daisie handed a slice to her, a
