Thomas shrugged, “I don’t know your father. A sea separates your father and me, so what’s the point for
me to get to know your father?
Daisie curled her lips.
Seeing that both of them were still reluctant to eat the food, Thomas frowned and added, “Don’t worry.
There is no poison in the food. If you don’t want to die of starvation, then eat.”
After Daisie heard what Thomas said, before Nollace could do anything, she picked up a piece of meat
and popped it into her mouth.
Nollace was rendered speechless.
“How could this silly girl eat so much in
other people’s places?’
Thomas watched as Daisie wolfed down the food. Not only did she not throw a fit, but she also dared to
talk back at him. He did not know why, but he could not dislike this little girl.
It was a strange feeling for him. He found it so amazing that he could not help but pay attention to this
strange little girl.
Thomas asked, “Girl, what’s your name?” Daisie was holding a drumstick in her hand. Her mouth was
oily as she replied,” I’m Daisie.”
“Daisie…” Thomas mumbled and nodded.” What a nice name.”
Daisie suddenly fixed her gaze on him and asked, “Sir, why are you working with those bad guys?”
Thomas was stunned. He frowned and replied to her with another question, “What if I told you that I’m
one of the bad guys?”
Daisie replied while munching on the drumstick, “If you were a bad guy, would you still give us so much
good food?”
He chuckled. “Of course. I’m going to fatten you up and sell you off.”
Daisie was stunned, and she had the urge to throw the drumstick in her hand away. Thomas felt he
should stop teasing the girl upon seeing her expression. He slowly rose to his feet and said, “Alright. I’m
just kidding. I won’t sell you off. After you’ve eaten your fill, you should rest.”
After Thomas had gone away with his men, Daisie approached Nollace and said, “See? I told you they
wouldn’t do anything to you when they learned my identity and who my father is.”
Noilace was rendered speechless.
‘It’s because you’re lucky that that old man took a liking to you. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be surprised even if
they threw us into the sea.’
That being said, he had to admit that Daisie indeed had the ability to make people want to get close to
her, including him. If not, he wouldn’t have wanted to get closer to her when he first met her back then.
The next day, at Bassburgh…
The bodyguard drove the car to the hotel’s parking lot. Maisie contacted Jackie, and she looked at her
phone in silence for a long while when she saw the room number he had sent her.
“D*mn it! This guy must be up to no good for asking you to come here. Let’s go up and Maisie kept her
phone away and interjected before the bodyguard could finish his sentence, “If something is about to
happen to me, I’ll call you guys. Then you’ll come up to back me up.”
She opened the door and got out of the car. One of the bodyguards followed after her and said, “But
ma’am, we can’t explain to Mr. Goldmann if he hurts you.”
Maisie stopped in her tracks, turned her head around, and smiled. “Don’t worry. He won’t have the
chance.” The bodyguard watched as Maisie walked away. He pulled out a cigarette and lit it up. “Is it fine
we let ma’am go meet him alone?”
Another bodyguard in the car let out a sigh and said, “That’s because you haven’t seen her in action yet.
Anyway, let’s just put our trust in her.”
When Maisie came to Room #8206, she sprayed the perfume on her wrists and rang the doorbell. Soon,
Jackie opened the door. It seemed to her that he had just gotten up from his bed as he was still wearing
his bathrobe and had not put on his glasses yet.
“You really came.”
Maisie smiled and replied, “We made a deal last night to talk.”
Jackie moved to the side to make way for Maisie. When he saw that she was not moving, he laughed
and fixed his belt.” What? Are you not coming in?”
Maisie gazed fixedly at him and walked into the room.
Jackie closed the door and turned his head
around to look at her.
