The other Tibetan Mastiff that sprinted toward him was shot to death too.The other two men who got mauled were lying in a pool of their own blood and were on the brink of dying.Nollace saw Daisie hiding in the cage, and his pupils constricted instantly. โDaisie!โDaisie opened the door of the iron cage. Her face looked pale, and she crawled out of the cage weakly.Nollace hurried forward, hugged her in his arms, and kissed her on the top of her head. โAre you okay?โShe shook her head and did not say anything. She was obviously frightened by the scene of the Tibetan Mastiff mauling those men to the verge of death, so she could only lean against his arms at that moment.Cecelia covered her cheek and yelped bitterly, but she did not forget to vent her hatred while suffering from the excruciating pain. โDaisie Vanderbilt! You b*tch! How dare you play tricks on me! I wonโt let this slide. Iโll definitely kill you! Aaah!โThe police and paramedics arrived just in time to hear what
Bianca was flustered. โWhat do you want?โNollace smiled and continued indifferently. โThen you might have to sacrifice your husbandโs lifelong freedom in exchange for a few years' worth of commutation for your daughter.โThe butlerโs expression changed immediately, but he did not dare to make a sound.However, Nollace just so happened to catch the change in his expression.Bianca lowered her gaze, and her face was filled with pain and agony.Nollace left the hospital and got into the car. Daisie was sitting in the car with his coat draped over her shoulders, waiting for his return. It was obvious that her complexion had recovered a little. โNollace, how did things go up there?โHe took her into his arms. โEverythingโs fine, how about you? How are you feeling?โโIโm feeling much better now.โโItโs just that Iโm not used to watching those scenes live.โHe lowered his head and kissed the top of her head. โThen letโs go home first.โShe nodded since she was starting to feel slee
โItโs indeed good news.โ Colton stopped beside Freyja and glanced at Nollace and Daisie. โAt least the result isnโt too bad.โNollace hugged Daisie and smiled. โItโs all thanks to you, Colton.โThe servant prepared a sumptuous lunch, and the four of them ate at the dining table, not forgetting to bring a few bottles of wine to the table to add to the fun. However, Daisie could only replace her wine with fruit juice.Freyja swayed the wine glass in her hand and said, โThe problems that the Taylors brought to the table have been solved. I didnโt expect so many ministers in the cabinet to be impeached. So, I guess itโs time for a huge change, right?โThe ending that the Taylors deserved could not be changed, and the fate of the few ministers who were associated with the Taylors suffered their shares too.Not only did their privately embezzled property get confiscated, but they also lost their opportunity to restore their positions in the cabinet.It was equivalent to being banned fr
Nolan put down the magazine, looked at Charm, who was crying and kicking her legs in the cradle, and frowned, but there was not even a hint of anger in his eyes. โYou little imp, are you deliberately defying me?โNicholas walked down the stairs with a thermos in his hand. โYouโre nowhere near as good as your grandfather when it comes to raising children at home.โโFather can at least coax her, and sheโll stop crying once heโs at it.โNolan picked Charm up and held her in his arms. โYou canโt comfort her well either. Arenโt you just like me?โNicholas was so angry that he was speechless.Charm was still crying, and very loudly this time around.Nolan rubbed Charmโs wet diaper. It seemed that she had soiled herself, so he asked one of the servants to bring Charm upstairs and change her diaper. โSure enough, itโs time for me to summon her father back.โNicholas drank water from his thermos and chuckled. โWho told you not to participate in the birth and infancy of your triplets? Tha
Chadwick held his smartwatch close to his lips. โ911, someoneโs fighting here.โThe red-haired girl rushed forward. โYou brat! How dare you dial 911!?โBefore Chadwick could react, he was violently pushed to the ground. His bag was dropped, and everything was scattered on the ground.He gnashed his teeth, got up, and fought with the girl.However, his strength was not the same as a 16 or 17-year-old youngster, especially when there were a few of them.The red-haired girl rolled up her sleeves. โYou f*cker! You actually have the balls to fight back? Iโll have to teach you a lesson today.โThe red-haired girl was about to step forward but was suddenly embraced from behind by Sapphire, holding her back.At that moment, Sapphire shouted to Chadwick, โWhy are you still standing there? Run!โThe person standing next to the red-haired girl raised her foot and kicked Sapphire out of the way. Sapphire fell to the ground, and her palm hit the steps, causing it to lacerate.โSapphire!โ
โHowever, this little fella wants to learn martial arts at such a young age. Could it be that he just canโt stay put when injustice presents itself?โโI was just passing by.โ After saying that, Cameron walked up to the two of them, leaned over, looked at Chadwick, and placed her hands on his shoulders. โYou acted very bravely at such a young age. Thatโs a good thing. I like it.โChadwick lowered his head and did not utter a single word.Sapphire tugged on the hem of Chadwickโs clothes at this moment and said in a soft voice, โWe should say thank you to this lady here. She helped us.โAlthough Chadwick seemed awkward and reluctant, he still mustered the courage to thank Cameron.Cameron looked down at her watch and stood back up. โItโs getting late already. How about I see you off?โโNo, weโll go back by ourselves.โChadwick grabbed Sapphireโs hand, walked past Cameron, and left the scene.Sapphire looked back at Cameron and tried to hold Chadwick back. โChadwick, she helped us.
โI have no other choice but to grow up faster.โCameron glanced in the rearview mirror and caught the slight disappointment on his face. โFrankly speaking, thereโs no need for you to feel discouraged. Youโre still young.โHow long have you been learning martial arts? There are people out there who have been practicing martial arts for more than a decade and still find it difficult to bring their opponents down when they get engaged in fights or matches. So what do you expect to achieve in less than a year?โChadwick pursed his lips and remained silent.Cameron smiled. โWhy not just take me in as your coach? I promise that Iโll train you well and shape you into whoever you want to be.โChadwick leaned back into the seat. โThen I might as well ask Coach Wickam to train me.โCameronโs expression became more restrained. โYouโre so mean.โChadwick snorted and turned his face away.The car arrived at the Boucher manor, and Chadwick got out of the car.At that moment, the butler hurr
Daisie wrapped the coat around her and gave off a grin. โIโm fine. Iโll wait a little longer.โโMom and Dad are coming today, and I really miss them so much.โNot long after, three limousines drove into the manor slowly and stopped in the courtyard. The moment Maisie got out of the car, Daisie dashed toward her. โMom!โMaisie hugged her and could not help but laugh out loud. โYouโre someone whoโs about to become someone elseโs mother, so why are you still running around like a 10-year-old?โโBut I missed you so much.โ Daisie leaned against Maisie in her arms.Maisie stroked her hair as usual. โI missed you very much too. Knowing that something happened to you, your dad and I have been very worried about you.โAt that moment, Nolan got out of the car with Nollace and cleared his throatโthat was when Daisie walked over and hugged him, โDad.โNolan pinched her cheek. โYouโve gained quite some weight. It seems that someone is taking good care of you.โNollace, the โsomeoneโ who got
โDaisie.โ Leah and Morrison walked up to her with wine glasses. โYou look so pretty today.โโThank you,โ Daisie said with a smile.Leah lifted her wine glass. โI propose a toast. Morrison and I wish you a happy marriage.โDaisie clinked glasses with her. โSame goes for you and Morrison.โAfter 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. โYou were great earlier today.โShe giggled. โReally?โNolan added, โYouโll forever be our dazzling pride, so yes.โDaisie grinned as if she was still the little princess of the family.Nollace came over. โDad, Mom, a toast to the both of you. Thank you for letting me have Daisieโs hand.โโConsider yourself lucky.โ Nolan snorted softly, picked up his wine glass, and clinked glasses with him. โYouโd better treat my daughter well from now on.โNollace glanced at Daisie. โDonโt worry. Sheโll forever be my one and only.โMaisie 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 carriageโthe 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. Patrickโs 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 Daisieโs hand and smiled suddenly. โYou have sweaty palms.โDaisie looked back at him and responded with a trembling voice, โIโm nervous.โHe lifted her hand and kissed the back of her hand. โIโm here, so donโt be nervous. Just take it easy.โDaisieโs gaze landed on his wedding jacket. โYou look nice in this uniform.โNollace chuckled. โAnd my bride looks stunning too.โArriving at the cathedral, Nollace was separated from Daisie. Accompanied b
โBy the way, whereโs Cameron?โ asked Morrison.Waylon replied, โSheโs accompanying her father on a stroll. Iโm going to go meet them already, so Iโll leave you to yourselves for now. You can do whatever you want with your free time.โAfter saying that, he got up and left the couple.Morrison shook his head. โHeโs changed now that he has a wife.โโYouโre speaking as if you havenโt changed.โ Leah got up instantly and left the restaurant.Morrison put his cup down and caught up to her immediately. โHey, why would you leave me behind? Wait for me.โMaisie and Saydie came out of the private room and ran into Nolan and Quincy in the corridor.Quincy nodded. โMrs. Goldmann.โMaisie stopped in front of Nolan, and Nolan grabbed her by her hand. โHave you finished catching up?โโOf course. Didnโt you want to go to the Hathawaysโ villa with Dad in the afternoon?โNolan smiled. โI was waiting for you. Weโre just going over to have a meal together.โQuincy walked up to Saydieโs side and
Daisie grinned from ear to ear. โThen Iโll wear this crown on my wedding day, which can be considered an endorsement for my momโs jewelry company and design.โNollace hugged her from behind. โYou can do anything as long as you like it.โโฆThe 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, โGodfather!โStrix 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, โNolly, Iโm really looking forward to our wedding.โโReally?โ Nollace gently dried the soft tips of her hair. โIโm looking forward to it too.โโI 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.โHe laughed out loud and leaned down to her ear. โYou know what? All the wishes in my life have come true as well.โDaisie turned her head around. โWhat are your wishes?โโMarry you, give you a wedding, and have our own kids.โShe was stunned. Slowly, her face turned red due to her embarrassme
โYeah, itโs true,โ replied Zephir.โIt seems like youโve finally become more mature after coming back from your vacation.โ Naomi patted his shoulder. โI wish you all the best in your future endeavors.โ He smiled at her but did not say anything.โฆSoon, 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. โMommy! Daddy!โShe hugged both of them.Nolan petted her head and smiled helplessly. โYouโre an adult now. You should stop acting like a kid.โShe smiled back at them and said, โBut I know Iโll always be your kid in your eyes.โMaisie chuckled and looked at the other people. โIt seems like you guys had a lot of fun. Anyway, come in first. We should eat together tonight.โFreyja 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. โWhat a coincidence.โโMorrison and I were here earlier than you guys,โ said Leah. โWe only found out that you guys were here when Daisie posted a photo on her Facebook page.โDaisie pulled Leah to the seat and said, โThen you should stay a few more days with us.โAfter Morrison took his seat, Waylon introduced him to Freyja and Daisie. โSheโs my sister-in-law, Freyja, and sheโs my sister. Her name is Daisie.โโIโve seen them before at your wedding,โ said Morrison. โYour sister is my wifeโs classmate. She has told me before.โโSince when did I become your wife? Thereโs a chance I may not marry you in the future,โ said Leah.โWeโre already engaged. If you donโt want to marry me, who else are you going to marry?โ Morrison frowned, causing the crowd to break out in a burst of laughter, save for Daisie.She looked at Leah in disbelief and asked, โEngaged? When did you get engaged, Leah?โ Leah cleared her throat and replied, โWell, I forgot to inform you abo
The stall owner said, โ$10 for three chances.โโ$10 for three chances only? Thatโs expensive,โ commented Freyja.The stall owner raised his head and said, โIโm the cheapest around here. Other stalls offer $15 for three chances.โ Daisie tugged at Freyja and said, โLet'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.โAfter that, she gave $20 to the stall owner and said, โPlease give us six hoops.โThe 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, โLeave it to me.โShe 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. โWhatโs the matter? You canโt sleep?โโYeahโฆโ She buried her head in his chest and said, โI want to go to take a leak, but Iโm a little bit scared.โNollace kissed her forehead and said, โIโll go with you then.โBoth 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, โYou wait for me here.โNollace nodded. โJust shout my name if you need anything.โShe 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 Nollaceโs arm. โAlright, letโs go
