Daisy Ginger was being stared at with a hint of disdain in her eyes, feeling inexplicably puzzled.
In what way was she unworthy of Edward Stephens?
Was it her fault for being attractive?
As if she had seduced Edward Stephens, causing him to be unable to contribute to the world, how ridiculous.
Edward Stephens tugged her hand, also seeming too lazy to deal with his old classmate, and softly said to her, "Let’s go. Ignore her."
After all, there were no personal interests involved, Daisy Ginger nodded, disregarded it, and treated it as a farce, then left while holding onto the man’s arm.
On the way back, the situation with Eve didn’t seem to affect Edward Stephens at all. When he got home, he went straight to the bathroom to take a shower.
When he came out, he saw Daisy Ginger opening his small leather suitcase.
This woman seemed not to have any taboo about his privacy and turned his belongings upside down.
Seeing her sit cross-legged on the carpet, rummaging through his pile of books and showing a look of headache at those strange titles, Edward Stephens found it amusing and walked over to ask, "What are you looking for? I’ll help you find it."
"A Harvard graduate?"
She only knew he was rich, but she didn’t realize he was also a top student.
Edward replied, "I haven’t graduated yet, I dropped out, didn’t I?"
Daisy Ginger looked at him, still somewhat aggrieved by that woman’s gaze.
Edward sat down, took her hand, gently kneaded her fingers in his palm, and smiled, "What are you thinking about? It’s just that my family had money, I found a professor from a prestigious university who recommended me. You know, in those kinds of schools, having money is more valuable than good grades."
Daisy Ginger pouted, "Don’t lie to me. I’m quite wealthy too; how come Harvard didn’t accept me?" ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ 𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹•𝑓𝑖𝑟𝑒•𝙣𝙚𝙩
Edward laughed, fell onto her, "If you want to pursue a degree, should I recommend you?"
"Be serious," Daisy Ginger pushed him a few times, looked up at him seriously, "Do you want to go back?"
She was aware that the reason Edward dropped out was probably due to his hereditary illness.
His coming to Banyan City wasn’t like what that female classmate said about dating and getting married, but rather waiting for death.
Edward raised his head to look at her, narrowed his eyes slightly, "If I go to the United States, you won’t be able to see me every day. Are you willing?"
"Of course, I’ll miss you terribly," Daisy Ginger sat on the carpet, lowered her eyes without looking at him, "But if you’re staying in Banyan City for my sake, giving up what you love, that would pain me more. Edward, I hope that staying by my side brings you happiness and joy... If this happiness can only be enjoyed by me alone, then I’d rather not have it."
Edward’s eyes deepened, he gently tightened his grip on Daisy Ginger’s hand, speaking in a low voice, "Daisy Ginger, my love is not as selfless as yours."
Daisy Ginger raised her head, looking at him somewhat confused.
"If I have decided on someone, unless I’m dead, I won’t allow her to leave my side for even a step."
Daisy Ginger slowly blinked, looking at Edward’s pupils, darker than usual, seeming like a small universe within, capable of drawing in one’s soul.
Edward gently kissed her on the lips, "I won’t leave you, and attending Harvard wasn’t my intention, it was just someone else’s hope..." He paused, a trace of gloom flickered in his eyes, quickly brushed off, he only said, "Don’t think about these trivial matters anymore. I don’t like it."
