Daisie didn’t know that when she had gone to see Nollace, the bodyguards had already recognized
him.
The housekeeper went in to prepare breakfast.She remembered something and poked her head out to
ask, "Have you had something to eat, sir?"
Nollace smiled.
"Could you please prepare mine too, please?"
Daisie was curious.
"You haven’t had breakfast?"
He lazily leaned back.
"I just want to get free food here."
Daisie put her hands on her hips.
"You need to pay for the food."
Nollace suddenly held out his hand and pulled her onto his thighs.She was shocked and immediately
looked toward the kitchen.
The housekeeper was preparing breakfast and didn’t notice what was going on in the living room.She
nervously lowered her voice.
"What are you doing?"
"Didn’t you ask for payment?"
He pinched her chin and then leaned in.
"Here’s some interest."
"What interest— Mm!"
Before she could finish, Nollace kissed her.She stopped breathing, her hand that was on his shoulder
tightened, and her lashes fluttered like butterflies.
His lips were warm and soft as though he was trying to suck her soul away.
Upon remembering that the housekeeper was there, she lightly pushed him away and took deep
breaths.
"I’m going to ignore you."
Nollace smiled and ran his finger over her lip.
"You wouldn’t."
Daisie was annoyed and bit his finger.He didn’t feel anything but stared at the bite mark on his thumb.
"Bunnies do bite when they’re anxious."
The housekeeper finished making breakfast and looked into the living room.
They had already split up and were seated on the couch as if nothing had happened.
"Breakfast is ready."
Daisie got up first and walked to the dining table.
Nollace pulled the chair out next to her, sat down, and handed her a big glass of milk.
"Drink some.You need it."
Daisie immediately understood him, so she hit him.
"*ssh*le!"
The fist that hit him was soft like cotton, as if she was scratching him, so he laughed heartily.
The housekeeper turned and looked at the young couple.
To her, they were just having fun.
The girl made a fuss, and the boy played along.It was beautiful.
Nollace’s phone that was in his pocket buzzed.He took it out and took a look, then put it back.
After breakfast, Nollace left.He stopped at the door, turned, and curled his fingers at her.
Daisie walked over, but before she could ask, the warmth coming from her lips stunned her.
After getting his way, and before she could react, he left.
Daisie pressed the back of her hand to her lips.It was still warm.
She blushed and mumbled, "How could he run away right after kissing me?"
Nollace got into the car, and Edison drove away.
Nollace got a call from the bodyguard again on their way.
"Sir, I’ve found out who's behind her.
It was a payday lender named Ivanka Tomlin from Zlokova.
The people who work for her are all low-level criminals and have mostly been in jail before.
"The woman started working early in the night scenes and was once mistress to her boss.She secured
her place with the help of her boss, who was in some dodgy business.He was on the wanted list over
ten years ago and was sentenced to 25 years.All the casinos she owns now used to belong to him.She
would be nobody without him."
Nollace sat with his hand on his chin.
"Don’t underestimate that woman.She wouldn’t be where she is if she wasn’t ambitious."
The bodyguard said, "Lisa seems to be tip-toeing around her."
Chapter 1668
"Can she not tiptoe?"
Nollace chuckled, "Lisa got to where she was because of Ivanka.If Ivanka wanted to use her, she
would have planned to control her.If she knew that Lisa was planning to ditch her, no matter where she
would go, she would be blocked."
When Lisa fell into the hands of Donald’s people, and once she realized that she had nowhere else to
go, Ivanka would be her way out.If she cut Ivanka off, it would be the end of her.
Edison looked into the rearview mirror.He had never been disappointed with Nollace’s tactics during all
the years that he had worked for him.
Even Donald had told the people in the black market that the Knowles kid was a wolf, and if he
offended him now, he might bite him in the future.
If that didn’t kill him, he would still need to pay with a pound of flesh.
Lisa was just a clown to him.She kept challenging Nollace, so it would be weird if he let her off.
Meanwhile...
When Lisa woke up, she was in a hospital.
The construction site workers had found her in the morning, and she was barely holding on while
covered in blood from head to toe.
The nurse came in and saw that she was awake.
"Did something happen to you? We can make a police report on your behalf."
Lisa wanted to say something when a few men entered.
Donald followed them with a smile.
"Ma’am, sorry for causing trouble."
He handed her a name card.
She took it over, and her hand shook when she saw the name.
"Mr.Matthews..."
Donald patted her shoulder and looked friendly.
"How is she?"
The nurse couldn’t stop shaking and looked pale.
"Tearing...severe infection.She will need a urine bag for a while."
"Oh.
"Donald sat down at the edge of the bed and patted the back of her hand, still having a smile on his
face, which looked creepy.”
"Take a good rest then.You need to get back to work once you’re feeling better."
Lisa was mortified with her experience from the previous night.Her voice was hoarse when she started
crying.
"I’m sorry...Please let me go..."
"What are you talking about?"
Donald leaned in.He heard it but pretended not to hear it as a warning.
Lisa ground her teeth.She had to give herself a chance to survive, "It was Lara’s idea.She wanted to
introduce me to you."
Donald squinted, then asked a man to come over.
The man stood behind him with his head hanging low.
Donald grabbed him by his collar and asked with a smile, "What did they do? They’ve broken her, and
now I have to clean this up?"
They were most afraid when Donald smiled.The man took a gulp.
"I'm sorry...sir, it was my fault.I'll remind them the next time."
"There won’t be a next time.Mr.Livingston from Haniston will be coming to Yaramoor for a while.Once
she recovers, send her over to serve him, you got that?"
Donald smoothened his collar.
The man nodded.
"Yes, sir!"
Donald turned to look at her, "Take care of your health and help me make some money.I’ll treat you
right."
He got up and left the room with his men.
Lisa cried quietly while holding the bed sheets tight.
‘How did it get to this!? That isn’t fair! Why do I have to be treated so cruelly!?’ She held out a hand to
get the phone on the table and called Ivanka.
At the Victoria Business College's library...
Daisie stood in front of the racks looking for reference books about performance.She looked up and
saw that the book was kept high up, so she had to stand on her toes to get it.
