Chapter 440 A Dowry of Five Hundred Million (Part Two)
"Let''s go!" Jonathan was not nning on staying back to watch the Ouyang couple fight. He just
wanted to light the fire, and he didn''t care to extinguish it. Let them argue between themselves!
Jonathan had no interest in staying any longer, and this was his mellow side as he had grown older. If
the same situation had presented itself in the past, he wouldn''t have wasted words on Yakira. Instead,
he would have sent his bodyguards after her and left straight away.
"Yes." Daisy calmed herself and looked at Leo Ouyang with her perplexed eyes onest time. Giving a
slightly sarcastic smile, she exited this tainted ce with Jonathan Mu without turning back. Five
hundred million. As a matter of fact, Daisy never realized that she was worth so much. But now that
she knew all the facts, how would she keep her head high in front of Edward? It seemed to her that
once again she had fallen into a boundless abyss, and once again she made her own cage.
"Daisy, what happened to you?" When Daisy and Jonathan reached back outside the ICU, Tom caught
something unusual on her face and his casual look immediately disappeared and was reced by an
uneasy one.
"Oh! Nothing, I bumped it by ident." Daisy secretly examined Jonathan and bent down her head
timidly. She was afraid that he would suddenly burst out and reveal the truth. After all, the man was an
enigma.
"What''s wrong? Let me take a look." Cynthia said as she approached Daisy. She gently lifted Daisy''s
face. The moment she saw the severe swelling on Daisy''s face, Cynthia became worried like Tom did.
"What do you mean nothing? The whole side of your face is swollen. Tom, look at this. Put some
ointment on her or use an ice pack or something. Such a serious injury must hurt really bad!" Cynthia''s
delicate face wrinkled with worry. It seemed as if an intolerably painful injury was inflicted on her,
making her furrow with pain.
"Mom, it''s nothing. Don''t trouble Tom anymore. How''s Edward? Is everything all right?" Daisy knew
what she said might be able to fool Cynthia, but that didn''t mean that she could fool Tom. If he could
check out her face up close, then she would have nowhere to hide. That was why she tried to distract
everyone by bringing up Edward''s condition.
"He''s not awake yet, but things are looking up, so you don''t need to worry. Please let Tom take a look
at your face! Otherwise, Edward would get agitated when he wakes up and sees you hurt like this."
Cynthia was certainly treating Daisy as her own daughter. She showered Daisy with all her love.
Seeing that her face was so severely injured, she couldn''t just ignore it because she was concerned.
Jonathan didn''t say anything; he just stood beside them in silence. He first nced at the unconscious
figure in the ICU bed and then locked his eyes on Cynthia without turning away even for a second.
Watching how much Cynthia frowned for Daisy, he couldn''t help but feel sad for Daisy. Jonathan
detested Leo even more now.
But since Daisy didn''t want others to know that she was hit, Jonathan wouldn''t break the news to
anyone. He wasn''t that kind of a man. He had never been the intrusive kind, so normally he would not
care about other people''s argument at all, but this time he saw that his daughter-inw was involved.
At that moment, he paused for a bit but didn''t intend to step forward. He was going to leave quietly as if
he hadn''t seen anything, but when he heard that Leo was going to hit Daisy, he couldn''t help but stay.
And the rest was history.

"Daisy, let me take a look at it for you!" Tom was worried that her new injury might worsen her old
wounds which didn''tpletely heal yet. He didn''t believe that a fine woman officer would bump
herself so severely. Something must have happened, and they just didn''t know about it! But she wanted
to keep it a secret, so Tom would y along and pretend he hadn''t figured anything out. Besides, he
believed that Cynthia had the same idea. After all, with her intellect, there was no way for her to buy
Daisy''s excuse.
"Okay, thanks!" Daisy bit on her lip, but she didn''t expect the small bite would actually hurt the corner of
her mouth. She felt a sharp pain and furrowed her distinguished eyebrows.
"It''s very serious. We must put some ointment on it. I don''t have my bruise medication with me, so right
now I''ll do some basic treatment to alleviate the burning pain. Later I''ll go home and get you the proper
meds." As soon as he looked at the injury, Tom knew that Daisy was pped in her face. Only he didn''t
know who would be cruel enough to do that, and who couldpel her to just stand there and take it.
Because with her training, an average person wouldn''t even be able toe close to her.
"OK." Daisy knew that Tom had found out her secret, so she didn''t argue against his suggestions.
Meanwhile, she thanked him for being understanding. Whatever he said, she tried to amodate.
"Wait for a moment." When he finished, Tom walked to his office. He needed to fetch some ointment.
Even though it wouldn''t be as effective as the one he appliedst time, it would still help. He hoped that
by the time Edward woke up, Daisy''s injury would be unnoticeable. If Edward knew that Tom allowed
Daisy to get hurt like this in his own hospital, Tom would get all the me. He was not sure when
Edward would take his revenge, but he sure as hell wouldn''t let this go away so easily.
In the end, the violent man lying in bed was still the one to me. If Edward hadn''t beaten up Tom the
So ultimately Edward was to me. If Tom could apply his own medicine on Daisy''s swollen face, she
would be as good as new in a couple of hours, and Tom wouldn''t need to get paranoid about Edward
all by himself right now!
