As for Waylon, he looked just like a flower that grew up in a snowy mountain, sacred and unreachable.It was only now Cameron saw the light of why Florence was so obsessed with him.“As expected of the eldest son of the Goldmanns. Not only are you good at fighting, but you’re calm and collected as well.”Daisie looked at him in shock.‘He knows my brother’s identity?’Waylon narrowed his eyes. “It seems like nothing can escape your eye, Mr. Southern.”“I can see that something big is going to happen in the East Islands.” Cameron turned her head to look at Daisie. She raised his eyebrows and smiled at her. “So, girl, do you want to come home with me? It’s much safer there than staying with your brother.”Daisie was stunned. She looked at Waylon and said, “I’m not scared. I’ll stay with my brother.”Cameron chuckled and went closer to her. “You’re such an idiot. Do you know how much Ms. Serrano is obsessed with your brother? She’s coming for your life. If you come home with me, I
Joaqin’s face sank when he saw his daughter had been beaten up badly. He shot daggers at the people in front of him and hissed. “Hah, you’re just an outsider, yet you have the guts to challenge my family because you’re favored by Mr. Southern Sr. If you don’t give me a suitable explanation today, I won’t let you off so easily.”“So what are you going to do to us, Mr. Serrano? Are you going to invite Mr. Southern Sr. here?” Nollace came out of the hall. He had put on a mask to cover half of his face. With his golden hair, light-colored pupils, and pronounced jawline, he looked exactly like a foreigner, with half of his face covered.He took one step down the stairs after the other and continued. “Well, it seems like I don’t have to introduce myself anymore since you know who I am.” Joaqin harrumphed coldly. “It seems to me that you have no qualms in making us your enemy after what you did to my daughter!” Standing with his hands clasped behind his back, Nollace stopped in front
Joaqin shot daggers at Nollace and said, “Just you wait for me.”He then took his men and left.Nollace caressed his rings, and his gaze was cold. His entire being was enveloped in a chrysalis of evil energy that would force other people to stay away from him.Regardless of who it was, there would be hell to pay for those who dared to hurt Daisie.Meanwhile, at the Southern mansion…The maid brought Daisie to her room. “Miss, here we are. If you have anything you need, you can let us know.” Daisie replied with a smile, “Alright. Thank you.” After the maid left, she stood in front of the mirror. There was a forest at the back of the Southern mansion, and she could catch the fresh scent of the mud from the wind.Even though the room was decorated in an ancient style, the furniture was of modern style, and even the bed was from Simmons. The entire room gave off a cozy and was rather poetic. “How do you feel about the room?” She turned her head around and saw Cameron standing b
However, Damian was a closer friend to Sunny than to Fabio.Damian had heard that Cameron had brought an outsider back to the East Islands. That outsider had a special identity, and Sunny ordered him to take over The Commune. Damian was well aware of these. He took a sip from the tea and asked, “Is Neal not worried that he’s pushing Joaqin too hard? You’re the one who appointed him to take over The Commune, and by doing this, he will only make Joaqin more frustrated with you.” Sunny put down his cup and said calmly, “If he wants to rebel against me, he’ll do it sooner or later. He’s just looking for a breakthrough that will allow him to pull out without hurting himself.”Damian touched the gold watch on his wrist and continued. “Although Fabio is willing to provide benefits to Joaqin, we can see that he doesn’t trust him entirely since he’s still hesitating.“The reason Fabio is so anxious to get so many people on his side and monopolize the underworld is to make himself the kin
“At that time, he will be immersed in grief, and he won’t be able to defend himself against our attack.”Florence let out a laugh, and a hint of anticipation crossed her eyes. “Very good. I have wanted to get rid of the Southerns for a long time. This time, I’m going to kill Cameron with my own hands!”…As soon as Waylon arrived at the hotel, he bumped into someone familiar in the corridor. It was Nollace. He was standing in front of the window, and it seemed like he had been waiting for him for a long time.Nollace turned his head around to look at him. “I didn’t expect you to bring Daisie with you.” He chuckled and replied, “She was worried about you. Even if I don’t let her come, do you think I can stop her?” Nollace knew her behavior better than anyone else, so he knew this would happen.“I heard that The Serpents tried to give you guys some trouble.”“Cameron told you about it?” Waylon walked to the room and opened the door.Nollace followed him into the room and repli
Mr. Southern Sr. was startled and then burst into laughter. “Not bad. You’re way more polite than that girl.”Daisie wondered. “Who are you referring to, Mr. Southern Sr.?”Cameron coughed, put down the teacup, and changed the subject. “Dad, I’m going to talk to Mr. Serrano about my marriage to that tigress.”Sunny glared at her. “Do you still want to marry her?”Cameron frowned. “Who told you that I want to marry her? I’m going to talk to him about the termination of the engagement.”Mr. Southern Sr. glanced at him. “Are you sure that he’ll agree to it?”“Even if he doesn’t want to agree to it, he’ll have to do so.” Cameron poured herself some tea. “I’m not going to marry a woman who’s cheated on me.”Mr. Southern Sr. was rendered speechless.‘She’s talking as if she can marry a woman.’After that, she looked at Daisie. “Ms. Vanderbilt, if you’re willing to become my wife, I’ll take you over that tigress any day of the year.”Daisie was flustered and hurriedly explained, “I’
All humans were known to be selfish. If he were to force the other party into a corner, he would leave himself with little room to maneuver. It would only backfire if he was too eager to see immediate success.Joaqin was not an idiot, and this was not the time for him to act too obviously.“Since you don’t like Florence, I won’t force you to accept the marriage arrangement.” Joaqin lifted his gaze. “However, the Southerns should still provide me with an explanation on the incident where Neal Beck made a move on my daughter, shouldn’t you?”Cameron fiddled with the empty teacup on the table. “It’s not difficult for us to explain that, but Ms. Serrano is the one who created a stir at the hall, so shouldn’t she be the one who apologizes first?”Joaqin was slightly displeased. “It’s Florence's fault for making a scene at the hall, and she can apologize for that, but isn’t that too intentional for him to beat her up to that extent?”She asked him in return, “If someone were to cause tr
Joaqin turned around and ignored her. “Since you don’t want to apologize to them, you’re not allowed to get out of this building from today onward. Now go back to your room.”She bit her lower lip and dashed upstairs exasperatedly.Manuel witnessed the whole process of Florence being wronged, and what he saw tortured him in all possible ways. He had been with the young lady for so long and had never seen her be wronged. He did not understand the reason Joaqin would compromise with the Southerns.‘Those people deserve to die.’Florence had been grounded, and Joaqin had to send someone else to the Commune to apologize on her behalf to show their sincerity, which was the end of the matter.A few days later, Cameron went to the port to check on the goods. The Southern Clan went through the goods that they imported and exported very rigorously, and any non-compliant or illegal goods would be destroyed immediately.She took her men on board the cargo ship, and the female bodyguard behi
