NovelOnlineChapter 264: Chapter 264: Don’t Flatter Me
It was just another typical winter evening after work for Daisy Ginger.
Except for the moment when Edward Stephens was driving her home, distractedly glancing at the crowd while
passing through the traffic lights, and almost hitting a pedestrian, Daisy didn’t notice anything unusual.
He was always a careful driver, and this was the first tEdward had lost focus while driving. Daisy cast a
surprised look at the man, but seeing his calm demeanor and no hint of anything amiss, she didn’t pay any
further mind to the small mishap.
After dinner together, Daisy went into the study to continue her unfinished work. When she entered the
bedroom, yawning, she found that Edward was not in the room.
Surprised, she asked the servant cleaning downstairs and learned that Edward had abruptly driven out after she
entered the study.
He rarely went out, so Daisy didn’t worry. She sent him a text message and went to sleep after washing up.

The night was very deep.
On the sidewalk that was bustling after work, only a few streetlights lit up small patches of brilliance, and in the
areas beyond the reach of the streetlights, someone was vomiting against the wall.
Nearby was a small bar, from which sound waves seeped out through the poorly soundproofed door, with
laughter and teasing of men and women reaching the ears.
Edward Stephens walked with a stern face, passed a small puddle, and entered a narrow alley where drunken
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtmen and women were entangled. Seeing him enter, they hurriedly pushed away from each other, as if he hadn't
seen them, swiftly walking past.
"In such a rush to die! Screw you!"
The woman ran away in shame, while the thug, his fun interrupted, cursed angrily.
Edward turned a blind eye to everything around him until the sounds of people and music faded away. At the
deepest part of the alley, stood a short-haired woman, bathed in silver moonlight resembling a hazy mist, her
figure somewhat unclear.
The man stared intently at the woman in front of him, his gaze gradually becoming cold, halting his steps three
meters away.
The woman slowly turned around, revealing a delicate and beautiful face. Perhaps due to not seeing the light for
a long time, her complexion held a fragile hint of pallor.
"Long tno see, Second Young Master." She smiled faintly at him, seemingly adopting his habits, her voice
carrying a soft gentleness.
"What are you doing here?" Edward frowned, coldly staring at the woman before him. He spoke curtly, not in the
tone of a friend reunited after a long absence, "This isn’t a place you should be, so get back to the United
States!"
"I missed you, cto see you." The woman walked forward slowly. She was nearly a head shorter than him and
stood in front of him, tilting up her pale, beautiful face, smiling as she tilted her head, "Is that not okay?"
Edward looked at her with a bit of distaste, "Get lost, don’t try to butterup."
The woman lowered her eyes, slowly taking a step back, and said softly, "I didn’t expect the Second Young
Master to get married to a stranger in this city."
"That has nothing to do with you." Edward cut her off, "Get back, | don’t want to continue seeing you in Banyan
City."
The final few words, suppressing anger, carried a faintly threatening undertone.

The people around that person were all like this, manipulated, akin to dummies.
Edward glanced elsewhere, feeling a bit nauseated: "I have nothing to do with the Stephens family anymore."
