Daisy Ginger handed the signed document to Oliver Rubio, then leaned back in her leather chair and said to lan
Linton, "lan, the relationship between Edward andis a bit difficult to explain to you."
She spoke tactfully, hinting that lan Linton should drop the subject.
But the man, who was usually good at reading people’s expressions and knowing his boundaries, seemed
unusually out of control today for sreason.
lan Linton said, "Director Ginger, Edward Stephens doesn’t love you at all. Why do you humiliate yourself and
settle for a man who doesn’t care about you? You clearly deserve better!"
Daisy Ginger was momentarily stunned by his somewhat excessive words but quickly reacted. Her beautiful,
delicate eyebrows furrowed slightly, and she lowered her voice, "lan, this is a matter between Edward and me. It
has nothing to do with you."
"He's already left you twice for another woman. Aren't you afraid of a third time?!"

Daisy Ginger’'s brow furrowed tightly, finding lan’s loss of control a bit strange. She spoke softly and calmly to
lan, "lan, are you feeling unwell? Take stto compose yourself, then callback. In your current state...
we have nothing to discuss."
With that, she decisively hung up the phone unilaterally.
She sat in her office chair, frowning slightly, feeling mildly annoyed.
lan Linton was usually gentle and refined, always speaking within the bounds, and getting along with him felt like
a spring breeze. But those few sentences just now were too much; in what capacity was he venting his anger at
her?
No matter how big the problems with Edward Stephens were, they were personal issues, and lan’s comments
were inappropriate.
This guy, maybe he’s drunk.
Daisy Ginger pursed her lips, feeling a bit uncomfortable with what was said.

The Linton Clan’s company office building.
lan Linton stared at the phone that had been hung up.
His jade-like face instantly darkened.
He looked down at Daisy Ginger’s nin the contact list, his thin lips pressed tightly together.
His light brown eyes seemed to harbor a vortex of dark emotions, and he slowly clenched the phone in his hand
until it let out an overwhelmed creak. Only then did he slowly close his eyes, taking a deep breath to suppress
the boiling emotions inside.
When he opened his eyes again, the man’s expression was calm, although the color of his eyes hadn't faded
fully, with the edges of his pupils tinged with a faint darkness, giving a chilling impression.
The secretary standing nearby cautiously handed him a document, nervously saying, "Young Master Linton,
here's a..."
Before she could finish her sentence, lan Linton grabbed the document and slammed it into her face, his voice
carrying an underlying fury as he coldly commanded, "Get out!"
The young secretary burst into tears from being hit, bending down to pick up the documents from the floor while
sobbing, and stumbled out of the office.

Daisy Ginger finished her dinner, sitting on the sofa with a remote control watching TV.
Lady Stephens handed over a plate of sliced fruit eagerly, saying, "Daisy, these peaches just flew in from
England. Give them a try."
Daisy Ginger took a bite with a toothpick and smiled at Lady Stephens, "Very sweet. Thank you."
Lady Stephens moved behind her and placed her hands on Daisy's shoulders, "Daisy, Auntie learned some
massage techniques these past few days. You've been sitting in the office all day; you must be tired. Let Auntie
give you a relaxing massage."
Daisy Ginger felt ticklish from her touch, couldn’t help but laugh, "No need, Auntie, | have a personal trainer for
massages."
