Just as Colton was about to speak, Waylon suggested, "Just let her stay.He’s helped Daisie a lot these
days."
"Whatever."
Colton walked out of the room first.
When they left, Daisie sat on the chair beside the bed and saw the empty cup on the table, so she got
up and wanted to pour hima glass of water.
Suddenly, she saw a note pressed under the phone that he had placed on the table.
Daisie pulled out the note curiously and saw a very familiar cell phone number written on it.It was so
familiar that Daisie recognized it immediately.It was not until the evening that Nollace opened his eyes.
He rested the back of his hand on his forehead, and he was no longer feeling so uncomfortable.He
turned his head instantly and saw Daisie leaning against the back of the chair, sleeping soundly.He was
stunned because he had assumed he was dreaming when he saw her figure earlier on.
Nollace got up, pulled the blanket off his body, and sat on the edge of the bed.
His gaze landed on her face, and he could not help but chuckle when he saw the bead that was rolling
down from the comer of her lips.
The abrupt chuckle woke up Daisie.She subconsciously wiped the corner of her lips, met Nollace‘s
gaze, and got up in a hurry.
"A- Are you awake?"
He nodded.
"Yeah."
"Then the fever should’ve subsided, shouldn’t it?"
"Yeah."
She heaved a sigh of relief.
"That’s good.Since you're fine now, Pll leave the room first."
Nollace watched as she walked toward the door, and at this moment, he suddenly stopped her.
"Daisie."
Daisie looked back at him.
"What’s wrong?"
He gave off a faint smile.
"It’s nothing special.I just want to say thank you." Daisie looked away awkwardly.
"It's nothing.After all, you've helped me a lot during this period of tutoring, so there’s no need to thank
me."
She then walked out of the room.
Nollace was about to pick up his phone, only to find that the note that was originally placed under the
phone had been moved.
At the clubhouse...
Lisa was sitting in her workplace, pulling her cell phone out of her pocket to check for an incoming call
from time to time.
‘It’s been so many days, and Nollace hasn’t contacted me.”
‘I deliberately didn’t tell Nollace my name the other day, just in case Nollace would tell Daisie about me,
but I'm betting that Nollace won’t tell her about our encounter.
Otherwise, given Colton’s temperament, he would've come and threatened me long ago.
‘The only thing that Daisie has is actually that smart brother of hers who spoils her all the
time.Otherwise, how could she have exposed my lies?’ At this time, she received a text message on
her phone.
After going through the content of the text message, Lisa’s day brightened instantly, and she saved his
number immediately.
‘Finally, I didn’t spend all those days waiting for nothing!’
The next day, Lisa went out happily at noon as Nollace had asked her to meet him at a restaurant.
Sure enough, when she arrived at the restaurant, she saw Nollace sitting by the window.She walked
over with a smile.
"Nollace, you've finally contacted me."
Nollace still looked as indifferent as usual.
"Take a seat."
Lisa sat down and looked around the restaurant.It was not the first time she had been to such a high-
end restaurant.
Daisie had taken her to such places before.
A full meal here could cost her one month’s worth of salary, but this amount of money was like a single
drop of rain in a downpour to these rich kids.
"Nollace, I thought you wouldn’t contact me."
Nollace picked up the water glass and slowly drank from it.
"So, are you telling me that you’ve been waiting for me to contact you?"
Lisa paused for a bit and lowered her gaze.
"Because you don’t remember me, I was worried that you’d suspect me..."
Being tender and gentle had always been her usual method, as putting oneself in a vulnerable position
could arouse others’ compassion and desire to protect her.
"Then should I trust you?"
His question made Lisa’s expression slightly stiff.
Nollace put down the glass, lifted his gaze, and looked extremely calm.
"I asked someone to look into you.Lisa Fraiser, you dropped out of Bassburgh Private Middle and High
School because of Daisie."
