"Hehe! Daisy, you ought to take your words back. It's a good thing to be confident, but you should know when to draw a line, " Jessica said this with a forced smile, so as to conceal her anger. But when she saw it had no impact on Daisy, she just ground her teeth awkwardly.
"It's just like a coin with two sides. Cody and tragedy are both happening all at once. The most important thing is how you see things. For , I will be fine as long as I can find a perfect balance between the two, "
Daisy said. She wasn't impetuous or perturbed. The harder the things were to deal with, the more she wanted to stay alert. Only in this manner could she find a way to rescue herself. After all, she was at an absolute disadvantage. She couldn't see anything happening in her favor. Fortunately, they didn't plan to kill her. This did give her a hope to escape from the danger.
"Actions speak louder than words. Honestly, if we didn't have Edward between us, you would be the type of person I would genuinely admire. It is sad, that we are standing on opposite sides. Now, we can be nothing but enemies to each other."
Jessica said with smiling eyes and a joyful look on her face. Nobody could guess what she was thinking. However, irrespective of what she was upto, Daisy would always think of it as sothing against her.
"Indeed, but you can never be the person I would admire even if we didn't have Edward between us. So we're destined to be enemies, " Daisy said, pinching her lips coldly. She squinted at her with a faint sarcasm floating in her eyes. She couldn't stand a self-righteous woman like Jessica.
"Daisy, you……" Jessica didn't expect Daisy to have changed so much. She was not the sa Daisy she knew from the past. Daisy today was extrely harsh both in her tone and attitude. In fair comparison, Daisy was just as bad as Jessica, if not worse than her. Daisy's hostility made her speechless for a while.
"Co on. Cousin, don't be mad at her. We can't stay here for long. It's better if we find a safe place!" Hero said and frowned. She didn't maintain any contact with him in the past solely because she didn't approve of his criminal ways. However, one day, she
aff who passed by saying hello to him. He decided to call up his ho phone as he was upset that he couldn't hear their voices. He didn't know why, but he had got this strange feeling bothering him since morning. This was why, he couldn't wait to call Daisy as soon as the eting was over.
"Hello, Mr. Mu, can I help you?" Mrs. Wu asked on the phone. She trotted out of the kitchen imdiately when she heard the phone ringing. She paused for a second after she saw the number displaying on the telephone because Edward rarely called to the ho phone.
"Yes! Mrs. Wu, is Daisy at ho?" Edward asked and listened carefully, with his stiff body resting on the chair. His lips moved at the sight of the huge pile of files in front of him. He could sense that there was a lot of work pending to be done no matter how much he tried to escape from work.
"No, she isn't! Even your parents are out now. Are you not able to connect with Mrs. Mu?" Mrs. Wu asked and rubbed her hands against the apron. She hadn't seen anyone at ho ever since she ca back ho from the vegetable market with Sunny. She thought all of them went out together. It seed as if they were all together.
"Got it. I'll call soone else!" Edward said, frowning more tightly. They're not at ho, then where did they all go? Edward thought to himself. Daisy's feet were still recovering, so she shouldn't have gone anywhere! Did anything important co up that she had to go out?
