Chapter 102: To the world of sheeps

’’You will regret it,’’ Daisy tightened her grip on his collar for a moment before she pushed him away from her.

Ryle was a dangerous man and she did not want her friend to be entangled with such a person.

’’Actually, there is a way for you to know get the insider information from me,’’ Ryle watched as the guy’s eyes sparkled, ’’Join the company again,’’ and then the light in those emerald eyes dimmed.

’’No,’’ Daisy’s answer was firm.

She had to find her sister and child. As for the job, she did not take the same job twice. She had her rules and he was just another passerby who was not worth breaking her rules for.

Her confident ’no’ was another blow to Ryle. He clutched his chest, ’’You... Fine...’’ He inhaled a deep breath and told her, ’’The Si Family of Beijing had hired the Harper Society’s services for their security. And now their daughter has eloped with one of my trusted bodyguards. Who knew you would be cuckolded by that heiress material? You are being bullied just like that. I will help you get revenge...’’

The last words did not register in her mind because Daisy was stunned by his first words. Si Yena... eloped with a bodyguard? Well... ’’No,’’ she looked at him when the ’revenge’ term clicked in her mind, ’’Stay away from her. You can deal with your bodyguard as you wish but don’t lay a finger on her,’’ Even if she wanted to save her friend’s lover, she knew it was not that simple with the involvement of this ruthless man.

That bodyguard broke the basic code of work ethics and he was going to suffer for it because Ryle was not the kind of man who would be moved by vows of love and feelings.

Ryle quirked a brow, ’’You are so protective about her. I am telling you... she is just leading you on.’’

’’Cut the crap,’’ Daisy grabbed her bag and started packing her laptop and other stuff.

’’You... Where are you going?" Ryle straightened up.

Daisy slung the bag over her shoulder as she glanced at him, her casual expression back, ’’It was nice catching up with you. Remember my words, don’t touch Si Yena."

Ryle grabbed the bag on instinct, dragging Daisy back.

Her eyes widened, ’’You...’’ When she was working for him, this man was not this unrestrained. Why was he pestering her now? Just because she left the job without telling him? Men and their sky-high egos.

Every second she spent around any man, she would discover another minus point about him.

’’Take the job, Dexter.’’

Daisy was speechless.

After some time, she tried free herself from his grasp but his fingers did not budge, ’’Are you delusional? Let go.’’

’’You are taking the job.’’

’’No.’’

’’Then we are staying here like this.’’

’’Are you crazy? I know I was good at my job but you don’t have to be so desperate.’’

’’Who is being desperate?" Ryle scoffed and pushed the guy far away from him.

Daisy grabbed the arm of the couch to stabilize herself as she sighed. She waved her hand from above her shoulder without looking back at him and walked towards the door before opening it.

A furiously blushing woman stumbled inside.

Upon closer inspection, Daisy saw that it was the receptionist from earlier. Why was her face red? Was she sick?

The receptionist was speechless. The Prince and Duke were not actually fighting for her. In fact, they had a thing together?

Heavens, why are all high-quality men into each other?

Ryle’s face resembled the bottom of a pot when he saw a fujoshi spirit look on the receptionist’s face. He could not believe that his....HIS sexual orientation was being questioned.

"Goodbye, Princess. Thanks for your care,’’ Daisy sighed and left the motel.

It has been weeks since her wedding day. And nobody knew what happened back then other than her and her friend.

Si Yena was her only lead now.

As for Ryle, she needed to protect Si Yena from that guy. Since his bodyguard betrayed him, it was their matter. Her friend was innocent here.

...

’’Say Mama,’’ Diana poked Angel’s chin as she lay beside her on the bed, with her forehead propped up on her palm.

’’Daaa...laa...’’ The girl mumbled a few incomprehensible things before she wiggled her bottom in the air, sticking her face to the pillow like a fallen apple.

It was her pre-sleeping position.

Diana laughed as she patted the girl’s back gently and soon, the sounds of soft snores greeted her ears.

Diana adjusted the girl’s weird sleeping posture as she observed her features.

Angel did not have her mother’s dark hair. She had blonde hair like her. But the highlight was her features that looked like a delicate painting. Even though she was an infant, it was not hard to picture how beautiful she was going to be when she grew up.

Diana sighed wistfully. Brother-in-law’s genes were sure good... Well, it’s another thing if Angel’s father was a scoundrel then she would not call him brother-in-law.

Another thought passed by her mind. Did Daisy feel lonely and conceived Angel by special methods and accidentally tumbled on a high-quality sperm in the sperm back?

"Knowing her, it is not impossible...’’

Diana sighed again.

While playing with Angel, she was momentarily distracted.

But now that the little princess was asleep, her mind gradually started drifting off to the world of sheeps.

Earlier in the car...

She did not realize when she had drifted off to dreamland.

When she woke up, she found herself in Maxim’s car.

’We haven’t reached yet?’ she asked Maxim.

He had looked at her like she was some strange creature.

And it made her look around doubtfully, only to realize that they were in front of the mansion, ’You... Why didn’t you wake me up?’

’You seemed exhausted.’

’You could have gone inside instead of sitting here,’ Gosh! Would he sit in the car and watch her sleep just because she was exhausted?

’Not safe.’

This was literally a high-profile resident area with top-notch security. Ryle was the CEO of Harper Society, after all, there was no way he would settle for any shabby places. What not safe? Was Maxim kidding her? ’How long did I sleep for?’ she asked, hiding her disbelief.

’3.38 hours.’

’Warner!’ Diana was exasperated, ’Were you at least doing some work or listening to music or anything during this time?’

’I sat here.’

Diana was so speechless that her vocal cords might have withered away, ’Were you not bored?’

’No.’

"_"

Good, he won.

It was still normal until then but then their hands grazed accidentally when they were walking inside the mansion.

And what happened next made her stand rooted to her spot for some time.

Maxim snatched his hand back, stepped away from her, glared at her accusingly from beneath his dense lashes, and ignored her as he walked upstairs.

"_"

And she was left standing there, reeling with the strange silence in the atmosphere that his actions had left her with.

Did she.... Make him that uncomfortable?

She should have known better than to believe when he acted normal after that kiss.

...

Diana snapped out of her thoughts as she walked towards her wardrobe.
