Chapter 866 Daisy''s Rage (Part Two)
"Who said I wasn''t angry anymore? No matter what your reasons are, you still hurt me and I''m still
mad." Daisy turned her head away, pouting. At the same time, she was wondering whom Edward was
talking about. Since Edward kept hinting about him or her, she had to know. Who was it? It must have
been someone who meant something to both of them.
"Sorry. How about this? Next time, you kick me out of the car. You were fine, though. I never would
have done that if Mark hadn''t been following us. You really hurt my feelings today. I waited for you for
two hours and then you told me that you forgot about our appointment. Although I love you, I am a man
and I have a temper. You''re the only one I have waited for. Not my friends, not my colleagues. Not even
my parents. Can you imagine how important you are to me?"
Edward said to her after he had turned her around. That was true. Throughout his life, everybody
humored him. Yet with Daisy, he was extremely patient and indulgent. When she forgot that he had
been waiting, he preferred a white lie to the truth. Sometimes the truth hurt.
"That was why you were angry, but no matter what, you shouldn''t have stranded me. I almost cried my
eyes out." Daisy knew what she had done was out of line. Besides, it had happened more than once,
and Edward had never been angry about it before. However, somehow, she was always forgetful when
it came to Edward. She wasn''t like this normally. In a nutshell, she relied on Edward too much and she
had believed that no matter what she did, he wouldn''t be mad at her. Now she realized that she was
wrong. He didn''t have to keep ignoring her behavior and had no reason to forgive her for the mistakes
she kept making over and over.
"I was mad at first, but I got over it like I always do. Now that we''re married, I should understand you
So, sometimes I''m an incorrigible ass. But today, my anger was a sham. I started the fight on purpose.
It was because of the person I just mentioned. If things got hairy, I didn''t want you involved. "
Edward lowered his head and kissed her again on the forehead. He had predicted that she would get
hurt, but after hearing her out, he still felt a wave of pain in his heart. When she got hurt, he felt it
himself.
"Tell me, who was it? Maybe I''ll forgive you." Exnations weren''t really necessary, since Daisy had
some time to think on her way home. She had forgiven him, though she pretended otherwise. It wasn''t
easy for him to humor her like that. She was a grateful person. She didn''t focus on other people''s
mistakes and neglect her own.
"You won''t believe it. It was Jessica. I know she''s been away for a long time. Now she''s back with a
new face. Her purpose is obvious -- to destroy FX International." Edward had promised Daisy that there
would be no secrets between them. He knew the truth would worry her, but he still chose to tell her. On
the bright side, she would be more careful now. No one knew what Jessica''s next move would be.
"What? Jessica? Hasn''t she learned her lesson yet? Now I get what you were talking about earlier, why
you asked me if I''d still be with you if you lost everything." It turned out that Edward hadn''t been talking
smack. However, it took a huge amount of money to drive FX International out of business, if that were
even possible. He had poured his money into so many different businesses, trying to ensure that
something of his fortune would remain intact. That way he''d have some assets to leverage if he had to
rebuild. Rain had once told Daisy that Lin Group had been bought out by FX International. Then where
did Jessica''s moneye from?
"So I''m asking you again. Has anything changed? Would you support me if I lost everything?" Seeing
Daisy wasn''t angry anymore, Edward was relieved. Fighting was normal in families. It didn''t matter how
rich or how poor you were, there was always something that went south. Learning how to handle angry
family members was something of an art. Edward epted there would be friction in their marriage. A
marriage without problems was a fantasy. They were just like any other married couple. Both he and
Daisy were rational. When there was an argument, they med each other just like other couples, but
at the same time, they took time to reflect on their actions and learn from their mistakes. That was how
their marriage worked.
"No. Nothing''s changed. I think it''s a brilliant idea for you to work the streets. A pretty face like yours
shouldn''t go to waste." Daisy rolled her eyes at him. By now, she was still angry.
"Listen to you! The mighty colonel herself wants me to be a hooker. You know thew better than
I do. Aren''t you worried that word might get out that you''re my pimp? You mightnd before a military
tribunal." Edward smiled. Only Daisy coulde up with something like that. One of the many reasons
he loved her was that she could always make himugh.
"Don''t worry. I would be your client if you should really work on the street. I wouldn''t let you end up
bing other women''s gigolo." Daisy winked. He belonged to her. She wouldn''t let another woman
touch him no matter how pathetic and miserable he became. They wouldn''t even get a chance toe
near him.
"Careful, Colonel. Something like this couldnd you in the stockade, charged with group
licentiousness. I''ll report you to your superiors tomorrow.. Seeing Daisy was in a good mood, Edward
took it as license to tease her.
"Go ahead. You can''t report me without evidence. And for that, you''ll have to really hit the streets. Do
you still want to do that? I''ve got a pretty outfit you can wear." Daisy looked at him arrogantly, having
forgotten about the fight. She didn''t hold a grudge, except when it came to Leo.
"You''ll be my client, right? It''s okay then. I''ll enjoy it. I can make money and get to sleep with a beautiful
woman like you at the same time. How cool is that?" Edward would never be beaten in a debate. He
was the master strategist when it came to war of words.
"Don''t get cocky. I''ll ask the police to put you away. Start with a detention for ten days. Now, back to

serious business. How in the world would Jessica be capable of messing with arge group like FX
International? Who''s backing her? And more importantly, why?" Daisy wasn''t sure how many assets FX
International had, but from Edward''s extravagant lifestyle, she was convinced that it would cost
enormous amount of capital to bring FX International down. She wondered who was funding Jessica.
"Just some spendthrift from a wealthy family. Don''t worry. I wouldn''t let you support me. They won''t
beat me. ording to my intel, they''re fighting a hopeless battle." Edward was confident about this. He
expected that it wouldn''t be long before he turned the tables and bought out Kompass Group. Then the
threat would be over, for now.
