As the year drew to a close, Daisy Ginger’s company encountered a bit of trouble.
An overseas employee stole business secrets from a competitor, was suspected of illegal competition, and after being arrested, confessed at the police station that it was Daisy Ginger, the chairman of the Gingers, who instigated it.
Daisy was still not fully recovered from her illness, and now she had a lawsuit to deal with. She received calls from the police station day in and day out, requiring her to cooperate with their investigation.
Juggling work and trips to the police station, Daisy caught a cold and came down with a fever within a few days.
Edward Stephens, picking her up to and from work, seeing her in such a state of illness, couldn’t help but wish she would just take a leave.
However, Daisy had a strong sense of responsibility, and apart from going to the hospital for injections and IV drips, she missed no work. The company was hers, so there was nothing Edward could do about it. Seeing that her cold wouldn’t go away, he could only call Oliver Rubio to supervise her taking medicine on time every day.
The winter weather remained gloomy, as if it were about to snow.
Edward drove to the police station entrance to pick Daisy up and take her home.
He parked in place, watching Daisy walk out alone from the front gate of the police station. She wore a dark red wool coat, a scarf draped over her arm, carrying a brown bag, and dressed lightly; she looked thin and frail.
In the vast police station, with people coming and going, there was only her bit of red. Lonely and solitary, she moved, but seeing him get out of the car, she lifted her head, looked at him, and curved her beautiful eyes into a smile.
Edward felt his heart hit hard by her smile.
No matter how tired or bitter she was, as long as she saw him, she still smiled beautifully.
The kind of love she poured into him wholeheartedly was impossible not to be moved by.
Nicholas Woods’ words echoed in his mind.
You are her medicine. Only you can cure her.
You also should transform your marital relationship.
You need to give her peace of mind.
Edward opened his arms and caught Daisy as she flung herself into them, her body carrying a faint rose scent. She lifted her head and gently kissed his chin with her soft lips.
"The trial can start tomorrow," Daisy said with a smile, "I have a good chance of winning this. He has no evidence at all to prove I instigated it."
In this regard, Edward had a lot of trust in her.
Daisy was not someone who would use underhanded tactics to achieve victory.
She seemed very happy, and even after getting in the car, she kept talking to him.
"The lawyer I found is very skilled at dealing with false accusations. I don’t need to go tomorrow; he can handle it for me." For origınal chapters go to 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭·𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮·𝙣𝙚𝙩
"I’ve also investigated that employee thoroughly. He’s a distant relative of some old guy on the board who never liked me. Let them spend a few years in prison together."
"Oh, and these past few days, the one who received us was the deputy chief who caught Ian Linton for us last time. He helped me a lot this time too. I need to find a day to thank him."
Edward, driving, looked ahead and softly called her name, interrupting her rambling.
"Hmm?" Daisy tilted her head and glanced at him.
"How many pounds did you lose this time?"
"...Huh?" Daisy blinked, unable to grasp the meaning behind Edward’s words, and slowly replied, "Three or four pounds, I guess? Why?"
"When you reach a hundred pounds, we will have a wedding."
Daisy’s mind went blank, and even when Edward drove to the hospital, she had not yet come to her senses.
