Chapter 101: After the same people

’’C-Cuck...’’ Daisy stammered as her eyes widened in disbelief. She analyzed the previous situation and realized that Ryle must have seen her outside just now and misunderstood her relationship with Si Yena. She wanted to correct him but then she realized that she could not give any excuse for what had transpired just now.

Her face fell slightly.

As he noticed her dejected look, Ryle sighed. This prideful guy must not have wanted to be spotted by anyone in that state.

Hence, Ryle Harper, the man who steered himself away from useless emotions like pity and concern spoke up coldly, ’’My offer still stands. I can help you take revenge...’’

’’No,’’ Daisy said without giving it a second thought, ’’It’s a personal matter. Don’t get involved with it,’’ Having worked for him, she knew the ruthless ways in which Harper Society functioned. And this man was a monster disguised beneath that handsome face.

Everyone hid a monster beneath their exterior and she was not judging him but there was no way she wanted this kind of person to come anywhere close to the people she cared about. Be it her best friend, her little sister, or her baby.

When she discovered that she was impregnated by an escort at a nightclub back then, she had felt that working at that place caused her that misfortune but when she felt the life growing inside her, she realized that it might be her biggest fortune instead. To avoid any kind of casualty caused by a dangerous man like Ryle Harper, she had fled from that place without a second thought.

Moreover, it was nothing out of ordinary for her because she was used to running here and there as she switched her jobs every few months.

Clueless about her thoughts, Ryle felt more pity instead when he heard those words. This kind of person was the most pitiful. Even after being betrayed, he still loved and wanted to protect that woman.

But since it was a personal matter, he could indeed not interfere unless Dexter asked him to.

His phone rang and he answered the call from his secretary, ’’Did you find the room number?... Alright, get it in 5 minutes,’’ Amidst the chaos, he had not forgotten his main motive for coming here.

It could be said that this was a blessing in disguise because he got the opportunity to settle old grudges with this sly guy instead.

Ryle made the mental note to revisit those old grudges and draft a torture plan once this little guy had settled his personal affairs with his woman.

Daisy was thinking about how to find a way to meet with Si Yena alone when she heard Ryle’s words, ’’Are you here to look for someone?"

’’Yes,’’ Ryle did not bother hiding the highly confidential reason for his visit to Beijing.

He had personally wanted to solve this matter because that bodyguard held very sensitive information about his company since he was in a higher position. What was more important than all that was that he was a man he had trusted initially.

Daisy pitied the person who had invoked this devil’s wrath and invited misfortune for themselves.

Soon after, Ryle left.

She spotted Ryle going somewhere with his driver and the new employee who probably took her position.

So, she had no doubts that he was definitely here on some mission.

But it had nothing to do with her.

Daisy got impatient and decided to visit her friend once again.

Her main concern was Si Yena.

Yet, when Daisy went to knock on that room, she just found some cleaners inside, ’’What about the couple who were staying here?"

The old lady replied, ’’They already left just a few minutes ago.’’

Daisy’s face turned ashen.

It was only then did Daisy feel someone else’s presence near her.

She turned around and found Ryle and the driver-secretary duo standing behind him.

Ryle’s expression did not look better than hers.

Her heart thumped.

No way.

’’You.... Come with me,’’ Daisy tried to suppress the turmoil in her heart as she walked back to their room.

Ryle did not seem to mind that authoritative voice as he quietly followed the guy.

Secretary, who had never seen the Boss being obedient: "_"

Driver, who had wished for Lady Boss but got blessed with Lord Boss instead: "_" Boss is so whipped~

As soon as he stepped inside the room, Daisy closed the door, ’’Earlier you were asking someone about the room number,’’ she leaned closer to him suspiciously.

When he looked at those pretty eyes which were slightly narrowed at him, Ryle was momentarily distracted from the issues at hand. He cleared his throat, ’’I also just realized that both of us are after the same people,’’ he did not beat around the bush.

Why was he looking for Si Yena? Daisy was frustrated, ’’What happened exactly?"

’’You are no longer working for me. Why should I give you such sensitive information?" A cocky smirk made its way to his lips when Ryle saw the brat’s frustration heightening, ’Good, at least, he would know what frustration feels like,’ Ryle felt smug the more he thought about it.

Daisy gritted her teeth, her easygoing expression flying out of the window as she grabbed the man’s collar and stepped towards him. A threatening light passed in her eyes as she met his gaze, ’’Don’t mess with me, Ryle Harper.’’

Ryle’s eyes widened briefly. He was taken aback by the sudden proximity and the scent of peaches that wafted over to his nose. Men... smelt that sweet? Or was it just this guy?

He made a mental note to sniff his best friend to test that theory.

Daisy was much shorter than him but her aura could intimidate men twice her size.

Ryle knew how capable she was. After all, she had once been his most trusted subordinate. But, looking at the guy right now, he did not feel any sort of fear. It was just amusement. What a brat, ’’So what if I mess with you?"
