Chapter 577 Almost A Good Man
"What do you think?" Edward bit his lip and said calmly. Resignation was written all over his face. He
had been proud all his life, but in front of her, he had always been patient and he liked it that way.
"Thank you, my lord. I just said it to satiate your arrogance," Daisy joked. As an excellent man, he had
a thousand reasons to be arrogant. The women who had been pestering him were all charmed by him.
"You''re being naughty. Do you want to see the ocean? There you can walk on the serene paths, enjoy
the beautiful view, watch the streams running, and listen to the birds singing. Isn''t it great?" Edward
said with a smile. The ce was not far from the city, only a three or four-hour drive. When they got
there, it would be midnight at most. They still could get some sleep and then watch the sunrise in the
morning. It was exciting to think about it.
"Yes, it sounds great. But don''t we need some time to pack?" Daisy furrowed. She was anxious to be
there, but she was also a little worried.
"We don''t have to. Money is everything." Edward gave an arrogant smile. It was true. Money could buy
everything. Except love. The love that could be bought with money wasn''t true love. It was just an
attachment to wealth. Edward loathed that kind of rtionships.
"Do you have your wallet on you?" Daisy sized Edward up. He was dressed casually. He must have
been in a rush to catch up with her and must have forgotten to change. She figured that he had left
both his phone and his wallet at home.
"Luke will bring it with him. Don''t worry, honey. I won''t really sell you." Edward shook his head. She was
too naive. He couldn''t imagine how much she must have struggled in the past years. Yet it was her
simplicity that attracted him in the first ce and made him lose his heart to her.
"Edward, sometimes it feels good to be around you." Daisy turned around and pressed a gentle kiss on
his cheek, which was like a petal, soft and captivating.
"Only sometimes?" Edward was surprised by the kiss. But he remained calm and looked at Daisy,
smiling.
"Yes. That''s what you do." Daisy forced herself to forget the pain. So she started to make fun of
Edward, which was umon. Edward was impressed by her resilience. She knew how to change her
mood. Maybe it was an ability she acquired from her profession. Right now she had regained her
rationality.
"I don''t think so. I can do much more. You know that better than anyone else." Edward looked at her
with a mischievous smile.
"Look now, whose mind is full of these filthy thoughts. I despise you." Daisy rolled her eyes at him,
regardless of how disgraceful it was. He had a habit of associating everything with sex. More often than
not, she had to think through her words before she spoke to him, fearing that he might misinterpret her
words purposely.
"You''re more than wee to despise me. At least it means you are interested in me." Edward smiled.
He wasn''t embarrassed at all. Instead he seemed to be gloating over it.
"Okay. Mr. Mu, you win. I have to say I am totally impressed by your shamelessness." Daisy looked at
him with disdain, feeling that he was hopeless. She stopped talking, or else he would go on teasing her.
Darkness crept over the sky. Only a few cars were running on the road. Daisy had nothing to do but
talk to Edward. Wherever he was, she felt happy.
The ck Lamborghini was speeding along the expressway. Luke''s car was following behind. They
would reach the K City in the next few hours. Edward informed him on the vehicr telephone to
arrange everything ahead of time. It was a tricky task. Luke frowned in deep thoughts.
Since FX International had hotels in that city which had a special suite for Edward with all the
essentials in it, it was easy for him to find a ce to stay. The problem was that there were no proper
clothes for Daisy. Luke had to call the managers of the hotel and put them in charge of the matter. It
waste in the night. So, they had to depend on their social skills to do their job.
Halfway through the drive, Daisy fell asleep. She was too tired after the sharp turn of emotions that she
went through during the day. To make her morefortable, Edward pulled the car into the service
area to adjust her seat.
Edward stepped out of the car. Luke quickly walked over. When he saw Daisy asleep, he suggested,
"Mr. Mu, you can use my car."
"There''s no need for that, since we''ll be there in another two or three hours. Is everything set?" This
was what Edward was thinking about. Daisy wanted to rx. He didn''t want her to be unable to walk
out of the hotel just because she didn''t have proper clothes. She would be disappointed. She couldn''t
wear her uniform all the time.
"Yes. I have asked some people to arrange the clothes for her. There will be no problem." Edward''s
properties were all over the country, even the world. He could get what he wanted easily. All he needed
to do was to ask for it. Even if all the department stores were closed, his own department stores would
be at his service.
"Good. Let''s hit the road again then. Drive safely." Edward got in the car and was on the road again. He
called his parents and Justin to tell them they were fine and where they were going. Justin was too
premature. Without his dad''s phone call, he would have indulged in some weird, wild imaginations.
Daisy had a sound sleep. She was still sleeping when they arrived at the hotel.
Edward checked the time. It was past 2 a.m. It wasn''t toote. His night activities would have just
started if it had been in the past. He wasn''t sure whether he should wake Daisy up or not. He wanted to
carry her to the room. But he was worried that his act might affect her image since she was wearing the
uniform.
"Are we there yet?" While Edward was thinking about what to do, Daisy woke up and looked out of the
car window.
"Yes. You slept well. I was working on a n to sell you." Edward smiled and stroked her head.
"It''s an excellent idea. Maybe the buyer is even more wonderful than you. Then I''ll be with the best man
in the world," Daisy retorted calmly with a stretch. Edward was angered.
"Honey, am I not a good man? Huh?" Edward squinted his eyes at her smiling face.
"Almost a good man. But since I haven''t met a better man than you yet, I''ll just make do with you for
now." Daisy rolled her eyes cleverly, opened the car door and stepped out. She smelled the fragrance
of jasmine in the air. It suddenly urred to her that Edward hadn''t chosen this city only for its views.
There might be a story here for him to tell. Otherwise, why did he like jasmine so much? However, she
didn''t intend to ask him about it. After all, the past stayed in the past. What they had now was the
present.
"Colonel Ouyang, what you just said makes my fancy run wild." Bending on the car roof, Edward smiled
at Daisy. Apparently, he was trying to make a fuss about some words in her remarks again. He was
good at twisting the meanings of her words.
"Noment on that. Luke, Mr. Mu''s thoughts are filthy. Be careful when you are with him," Daisy said
to Luke, who was walking toward them. She took a deep breath of fresh air. The air here was much
better than that of the S City.
Luke looked at Edward. Seeing Edward wasn''t mad, he twitched his lips awkwardly. Daisy was the only

one that dared to talk about Edward like that. Edward hated two things. One was when people said that
he was pretty or beautiful. The second was that people assumed he was gay. Therefore, normally,
afraid of the consequences, people took care not to cross these lines with him. Surprisingly, Edward
wasn''t affected by her words at all. He smiled and talked as if nothing had happened. He really doted
on her.
