Chapter 438 Raise Your Head


    "Indeed, like mother, like daughter. You are just as terribly hostile as your mother." Yakira still


    remembered how desperate and envious she felt at the first time she met Grace. Grace was so noble,


    elegant and confident. She was a goddess-like woman.


    "You met with my mother?" Daisy ignored her abuse and asked curiously.


    Leo, meanwhile, also fixed his eyes on Yakira. With the look, he grew more confused. He wanted to


    know the answer as much as Daisy did.


    "No.. No, I didn''t see her. I don''t even know her." Yakira hastily answered. Deep down she med


    herself for her being careless and almost letting the cat out of the bag. She might as well be more


    careful next time. Or her years of efforts to bury the secret underground would vanish overnight. It''s


    worth noting that no one, not even Paul knew about her meeting with Grace.


    "Don''t you think it''s highly inappropriate to judge someone you have never seen? Or this is the family


    education you are talking about? Save it for yourself." Daisy talked back as if she was just trying to


    work against them.


    "I don''t need to see her to know about her. I''ve said, like mother, like daughter. You''re so rude. So how


    much more cultivated could your mother be?"


    Yakira looked at Daisycently, her eyes implying her contempt against Daisy. She must win over


    Grace today, even just verbally. She couldn''t stand being overshadowed by Grace every time.


    "Yakira, I called you Auntie for Brian''s sake. But that doesn''t mean that I''ll put up with you or whatever


    you do. Don''t insult my mother." Daisy made her point clear. Then next thing you know, she grabbed


    Yakira''s neck. It took merely seconds. She was as quick as a stroke of lightning.


    "Koff... Koff..." Yakira widened her eyes in fright. Breathlessly she stared at Daisy who was as


    intimidating as a hell-spawned Devil. For the first time in her life, she felt close to death.


    Leo, on the other hand, was frozen in shock. He was totally astonished. Instead of saving Yakira, he


    stood still silently. He couldn''t even imagine how Daisy made it past him to choke Yakira in just a blink


    of the eye. And then, there they were. Luckily they were not in a


    Real war, or they would already been ughtered by Daisy.


    "Daisy, you really want to go to jail? You are in the military. Stop. Let her go." The minute Leo regained


    his poise, he started shouting madly at Daisy. He could see Yakira''s face turn purple. He suspected


    that Daisy might really strangle her to death judging from the strength she used.


    "Remember, you can gossip about me all you like. But never, ever say anything about my mother.


    That''s the bottom line, "


    Daisy said decisively, her sharp eyes meeting Yakira''s frightened look. To be honest, Daisy wouldn''t kill


    Yakira. She didn''t want to dirty her hands.


    With a heavy push, she threw Yakira aside. And since Yakira was still shocked and weak, she was


    tossed like a leaf blown by the wind.


    "You... You''re unbelievable. She is at least your aunt. How can you do this to her?"


    Leo looked at Daisy angrily. Deep down, he condemned, ''Daisy is growing rebellious. She has no


    respect to me, her father.''


    "Aunt? Then she should act like one. I just warned you to keep an eye on your family and don''t mess


    with me. But she just wouldn''t listen. She asked for it." Daisy retorted.


    She was unbelievable, so what? If she acted meek, she would only end up being bullied. She had had


    enough, and she would not be messed with any more. No one would remainfortable being prey.


    And she wouldn''t, either. She would not get bullied, not any more.


    "Daisy, you think that I won''t hit you again, huh?" Leo was irritated by Daisy''s aggressive words. He


    stared at Daisy domineeringly as if to eat her alive.


    "Who dares toy a finger on my family?" A cold and cruel voice rose, making people feel like it was


    already winter. It was Jonathan speaking. He leaned against the pirzily, his face with a sneering


    smile. He looked too sacred to be vited.


    "Mr. Mu, what are you doing here?" Leo said awkwardly. He was only slightly younger than Jonathan,


    yet he couldn''t even hold a candle to him. Jonathan was noble and majestic like a king. His aura


    frightened Leo. Besides, Jonathan caught him abusing Daisy, now he was too embarrassed to respond


    properly.


    "If I''m not here, will Mr. Ouyang beat up my daughter-inw?" Jonathan said and walked slowly over.


    His movements were both calm and elegant.


    "No, how would I possibly do that? I am just criticizing Daisy for not respecting me." Leo was all smiles.

    But deep down he was quite confused that Jonathan even cared about any other woman besides


    Cynthia. But he dared not take the chance to mess with Jonathan who had been fairly ruthless and


    cruel before, so he answered quite meekly.


    "Dad," Daisy greeted Jonathan while lowering her head. She didn''t want him to see the p mark and


    say anything. It would be a pure waste of time.


    "Raise your head." Jonathan never wasted words. Most of the time, he stayed quiet. So Leo was used


    to not getting any response from him. But this time was different as Jonathan told Daisy to raise her


    head. Now he was worried. He didn''t know why Jonathan suddenly cared about someone else. After


    all, he didn''t even want to talk with his son, Edward. His seclusion was well-known in the upper ss


    circles of the city.


    Daisy, on the other hand, frowned at Jonathan''s words, yet she dared not disobey his order. She could


    dismiss Leo, but never Jonathan. Thus under Jonathan''s pressing eyes, she slowly raised her head.


    When she locked eyes with him, his chill made even a powerful woman like her tremble.


    At the sight of Daisy''s swollen face, Jonathan squinted his eyes in anger. Indeed, he didn''t care about


    others, or what they thought of him, but he couldn''t tolerate them bullying his family.


    "That''s your so-called criticizing? Then Mr. Ouyang must be quite evil-tongued that just by talking you


    left a p mark on my daughter-inw''s face. Your bark is certainly worse than your bite."


    Jonathan''s words finally gave Daisy the idea of where Edward''s silver tongue came from. Obviously, it


    was from Jonathan. He could even kill a person with words. He was the father of sharp tongues. And


    he was saying that Leo''s bark was worse than his bite. It should be Jonathan that had that reputation.


    "Please watch your words. Don''t think that you can insult others just because you are powerful and


    wealthy. You should sort things out first. There is no way that we can bully her considering how agile


    she is now. She started this." Yakira retorted.


    Indeed Yakira was still under the influence of Daisy''s cruelty. But as arrogant as she had always been,


    she would not let others pick on her. So she would talk back no matter what. She didn''t think this man


    Jonathan could do anything to her.


    "I don''t care who started it. Even if what my daughter-inw Daisy did is wrong to you, it''s right to me


    anyway. She is my daughter-inw. And because of this, our family will always support her and care for


    her." Jonathan sneered. He looked both cold and handsome. Indeed, all the men of the Mu Family


    were so gorgeous that no matter what type they were, their charm would never be hidden. Just by their


    looks, they would stand invincible, let alone their unparalleled wealth. So Jonathan didn''t care what


    other people said about bullying them with his wealth. It was his money, he''d do as he pleased.


    Hearing Jonathan''s words, Daisy was first stupefied, then deeply touched. Now she knew what it felt


    like to have your family love you. It meant that no matter what bitter pills you swallowed outside, you


    always had your family''s support at home. It meant that she didn''t need to go through the hard times all


    by herself.


    But Leo right now was quite upset about Daisy addressing Jonathan as father. She never even called


    him, her biological father, dad. Yet she was that close to Jonathan. Such a sharp contrast made him


    mad but helpless.


    "No wonder you are so unruly. Everyone in your family is a lunatic!" Yakira shouted. She was totally


    enraged by Jonathan''s conceited words. So she talked back without carefully choosing her words. She


    didn''t even think about how scary it was when Jonathan lost his temper.


    "Thank you for yourpliments. That''s what makes us special. Well, Mr. Ouyang is a man with


    terrible taste. Howe you chose such a lousy wife, a woman that no man would ever want? I have


    to say that your taste in woman is quite unique. A fetish, perhaps?" With just a few words, Jonathan


    retorted brutally, ignoring Yakira''s abusepletely. He never cared about what anyone thought


    anyway. All he cared about was howfortable he was. People''s judgements had nothing to do with


    him.
