Chapter 888 Seeing Leo Again (Part One)
"Edward, do you think we will live happily forever?"
Daisy whispered in Edward''s ear. As autumn approached, the nts and colors in the park had
changed. Some of the trees were already beginning to shed their leaves. Daisy felt a little sad as she
recalled how Jessica was devoting so much energy on winning Edward back. She was rather disturbed
by the very thought. What if Jessica had seeded?
"Babe, rest assured, we will live happily ever after." Edward stopped to promise her seriously. He knew
what Daisy was worrying about. Her anxiety was understandable. Edward was not going tofort her
with fancynguage, but he could convince her by promising her the future.
"Edward, don''t ever forget what you just said. I will be right by your side for as long as I live. You are
mine alone. If I get to know that you are having an affair with someone else behind my back, I will... I
will leave you without a second thought." Daisy had wanted to say that she would kill the both of them if
Edward had an affair with another woman, but she knew she could never hurt Edward. She loved him
so much. She would merely leave him if he betrayed her in the future. Nothing upset her more than
Edward getting hurt.
"Oh I see. If I fall in love with anotherdy one day, I will never try to make you stay." Edward curled his
lips. Was it because of the season that Daisy was getting sentimental? She had always been cool and
unconcerned. However, right now, she was being so emotional.
"Come on, Edward. Why aren''t you consoling me and telling me that you won''t betray me?" Daisy
feigned anger and hit him on the shoulder. Deep inside, she knew he was only trying to make her forget
the pain by teasing her.
"Darling, you know me. I''m notfortable expressing my emotions out loud. I prefer to convince you
with my actions. It''s not like you to be so sentimental." Edward knew Daisy didn''t actually get hurt when
she slipped and fell, but he was willing to carry her till the end of their lives.
"Oh. I get it." Daisy pulled herself closer to Edward as her head rested against his neck. She shut her
eyes, enjoying the warm sun on her back. Sunlight broke through the clouds and seeped through the
frail leaves. The happy couple walked in the light of the beautiful scenery.
Inside the dimly lit room of their vi, the two lovers sweated and panted as they lost themselves
without inhibition to the act of love-making. They breathed deeply and heavilly one after another, faster
and faster. Suddenly, the naked back of the man arched with force. The woman ground her teeth and
Daisy didn''t wake up until the next afternoon. She felt stiff all over. As she was about to get up, her
phone rang. To her surprise, it was from Brian.
"Daisy, it''s me, Brian. I''d like to invite you to lunch," Brian said cheerfully, as if he had no longer steeped
himself in the past and had moved on.
"Hi, Brian. When did youe back?" Daisy was ted by the phone call. Brian had gone abroad for
more than a month and never sent her a message all that time. She thought Brian had been ming
her for what happened to his mother.
"I got off the nest night. I made this phone call as soon as I woke up." Actually, Brian hade
back this time for his father. Leo had repeatedly asked him to return since he wanted Brian to patch
things up between him and Daisy. So he had no other choice but toe back and talk to her.
"Well, I''lle to meet you after I get ready. How did you know I am on break today?" Daisy asked him
with a frown as she went to her wardrobe to select a dress.
"I called Edward before and he said you were at home," Brian answered as he got inside his car. He
had phoned Edward to gather Daisy''s views about Leo. It sounded like it had been hard for Leo to ask
for forgiveness from her.
"Got it. Where are we going to eat?" Daisy asked. She found little time to be with her family because
she was married to her career. She finally had a day off today and was willing to spend it with her
family.
"Well, why don''t you wait for me? I''ll drive there and pick you up," Brian said, starting up the engine.
Leo had asked Daisy to meet him for many times, but she always refused him. However, she agreed to
have lunch with Brian without wavering for even a second. Apparently, she valued him very much.

"That''s not necessary. I''ll drive myself to the restaurant. Just tell me the address." Daisy put on a in
dress but it hung well on her. It was a little cold, so she added a grey knitted cardigan. After she put her
hair in an elegant updo, she looked like a graceful empress.
"Okay, well, I heard Westin Western Restaurant belongs to FX International Group. Why don''t we go
there? Then we can eat without paying." It was great having a rich brother-inw. Brian smiled slyly as
he turned the steering wheel to drive to Westin.
"Ah! Brian, since when did you be such a penny pincher?" It hurt Daisy to apply skin care
products each morning. However, when she recalled how she had assured Edward, she sat in front of
her dressing table and removed the lid of a bottle of face cream. After applying it, she went downstairs
in a hurry. She couldn''t wait to see Brian.
"We should cultivate good habits of frugality. Edward is my brother-inw. He would get angry if I''m too
formal with him." Since Daisy wanted to drive herself there, Brian had plenty of time. He slowed down
his speed and turned on the music.
"Oh, well, you are right. The profiteers cheat people left and right. We should trim the fat off the fat cat."
Since Daisy wasn''t wearing a military uniform, she decided to drive her Porsche today. She seldom
drove this car. It was inappropriate for a soldier to drive such a luxurious vehicle.
"Daisy, don''t forget, you are the wife of a profiteer yourself," Brian teased her, even if he was afraid of
her response when she found out that Leo was also invited.
"Hey! Don''t associate me with him. I''m almost there. See you soon. Bye!" Daisy hung up the call and
drove herself toward the underground parking lot. She could tell something was up, but she didn''t give
much thought to it since she knew Brian would never harm her. However, at the sight of Leo, she
turned around to leave the ce without a second thought. Edward, who had just arrived, grabbed her
hand to stop her.
"Daisy, I''m so sorry. I know I shouldn''t have lied to you, but..." Brian was at a loss about what to do. He
didn''t want to lie to Daisy, but Leo had coaxed and pestered him until Brian consented to it.
"Honey, since we are already here, why not sit down and have a good meal?" Edward said with a
frown. He didn''t know that Leo would be here. Brian had called him this morning and invited him to
lunch. But it seemed like he was needed to cate his wife instead.
"You knew he was here? You knew they set up a trap for me and hid it from me?" Daisy stared at
Edward with fury in her eyes as she fired a hundred questions. She was vexed with these three men.
Other than her unwillingness to reconcile with Leo, she just didn''t know how to treat Leo after so many
things had happened.
"Daisy, it''s not like that. I asked Brian to lie to you. Could you please stay and have lunch with me?"
Leo gazed at Daisy with a hopeful expression. He looked much older since thest time she saw him.
"I am sorry, Daisy, I knew if I had told you the truth, you wouldn''t havee here. So I had to lie," Brian
apologized to Daisy. He felt sad whenever he saw Leo''s greying hair. That was why he was unable to
turn him down.
"Let''s take a seat," Edward offered, casting a stern nce toward Brian. If Brian had just warned him
earlier, he would have found a better way to break it to her. Daisy hated Leo because she thought he
was responsible for her mother''s death. It was not easy for her to forgive him.
"Yes. Daisy, please take a seat first. I know you hate me, and I''m not asking for your forgiveness. I just
want to apologize to you. Make up for what I have done." It was a littlete for Leo to have realized his
fault. As his son-inw, Edward was unable to turn him down, so he pulled Daisy closer and made her
sit.
