Regarding people’s hearts, Daisy Ginger realized she was no match for Edward Stephens.
With just a few words, he made her start considering the benefits those people could gain from hurting Alice Lesser.
Soone wanted her to collapse, lose control, or even hurt the people she cared about most to achieve their goals.
The whole Banyan City knew too much about her, the abduction case eight years ago not only shocked Banyan City but also pushed the na Daisy Ginger into the public eye.
Later, Gabriel Ginger divorced Alice Lesser and married Abigail Perry into the Ginger Residence, which the Banyan City entertainnt evening news relished for a long ti.
Such family disputes and scandalous tales of mistresses are the most eye-catching and morable gossip.
Even soone like Ian Linton could know about her past and those around her, let alone all those business competitors...
Daisy Ginger was exhausted, unable to figure it out.
Edward Stephens gently touched her head, soothingly said, "It’s okay if you can’t think of it now, wait for the police to investigate. Recovering properly is the greatest counterattack against the villains."
Daisy Ginger looked at his face, sniffled, and knew that this man had been worrying about her for days; she reached out to hug his neck and buried her face in his embrace.
It was truly wonderful that he could co back to her side.
For the hundredth ti, Daisy Ginger mildly sighed in her heart.
She simply didn’t know if she would be able to live well if she lost him.

Jodie Holt was arrested by the police at her son’s engagent ceremony in the countryside.
Half of that million dollars bought her son a new car, the other half went to his dowry.
The engagent banquet was grand, inviting almost everyone from the village, lively and bustling.
When the police drove up and handcuffed Jodie Holt while she was happily toasting, her son even chased after them, questioning why they were arresting her.
Upon hearing that Jodie Holt was charged with attempted murder, her son imdiately let go, disregarding his mother’s fate, and hid upstairs, while the eldest daughter ran over crying to see Jodie Holt off.
Jodie Holt wasn’t soone who could handle a scare well; when taken to the police station, she imdiately confessed, pale-faced, that soone had given her a million dollars and told her to coax Alice Lesser into the garden while the nurses and doctors were in a eting and then push Alice Lesser into the pond.
Here, she still felt aggrieved.
"It was just five minutes! I never intended to harm anyone; the nurse can testify, I was the one who led them to the pond to find her... At most, she fell in for five minutes, I really didn’t intend to kill her!"
In her words, it seed she was just tempted by the million that could marry off her son; she didn’t want to harm Alice Lesser, just wanted to get the million first, never thinking that Alice Lesser would beco a plant after just five minutes in the water?
When Jodie Holt wasn’t caught, she was joyful; after being caught, she began to lant incessantly, crying innocence. The police compared her statent with the hospital director’s side, but it was too rushed that day, and the nurses couldn’t recall if it was Jodie Holt who led them to the pond to find Alice Lesser.
The police took the clues provided by Jodie Holt and traced the overseas virtual account that wired her the money, issued by a Swiss Bank; the unknown number that called Jodie Holt was a dostic cellphone number.
Without real-na registration, plus it being disposable, finding the caller won’t happen quickly, but given all the current clues, uncovering the mastermind behind hiring a murderer doesn’t seem particularly distant.
