"OK, fine. No need to do that. Police, I'll go with you." Yakira gave Edward an angry look. It was definitely all his fault to push her in such a bad situation. Why did he have to bother himself with such matters? Why did he have to investigate the things that happened 20 years ago? What did he gain out of all this? Could the dead come back to life by doing so?
You two, come and take her back to the police station. Take note to put her through a thorough interrogation." Mr Yi, the chief of police, commanded this to the policemen beside him. It was improper for them to get involved in that kind of family affairs.
Dad! Help Mom, please, help Mom! It was Daisy who rushed into our house armed with a gun. How could we let them take mom to the police station without any clear reason?" Mary helplessly pulled Leo's sleeves and murmured to him. Her mother was her only shelter in this family. It was certain that if Yakira really had anything to do with some unknown crime, Mary would never be able to live the luxurious life as a rich man's daughter. She even could not stay here comfortably.
No one has wronged her in this, She always knows what she has done before. It is all her own fault. And she deserves it. Speaking of which, she must thank the police for taking her away from here. Otherwise, I am not sure what I will do to her in the future." Leo was reluctant to let Mary hold him tightly. As things had come to a point like this today, the situation was not something he wanted to see. But this was the consequence of her own evils that she had committed in the past. She had to swallow what she had reaped. No one would pay for her wrong doing.
As soon as Edward saw Daisy handing Yakira over to the hands of the police, he immediately stepped forward and held her tightly in his arms. Irrespective of what she just did was acting or real, he was frightened by her irrational behavior all this while. Hence he wanted to comfort Daisy and himself.
"I am sorry, dear." He heard Daisy gently murmur in his ears. Daisy knew what she had done. And to some extent, it was just too extreme. When she was on the way to Yakira's place, she really wanted to shoot Yakira and get rid of her immediately. But she successfully calmed herself down just few minutes before arrival. Moreover, as Edward said, she was a soldier, not a murderer. She pacified after making a call to Chief Yi with a car phone. Daisy explained him all that was going on, and let him come and arrest Yakira formally. However, she was still not willing to let her go so easily and wanted to do something to sooth her anger. Hence she decided to pull out this act.
"Never, never say sorry to me, honey. Your safety is the greatest consolation to me. I don't need anything else." After a deep and affectionate kiss on her forehead, Edward firmly hugged her, with both his hands holding onto her waist. He was still consumed with fear and was afraid that she might just disappear in thin air any second.
Daisy, What kind of hatred do you have for my mother? Why do you want to send her to the police station again and again? What the hell is going on?" Mary suddenly ran up to Daisy and shouted. She wanted to angrily pull Daisy from Edward's arms.
But this was in vain. Edward quickly turn around to protect Daisy and keep her safe in his arms.
I think you can go up to your mother and ask her what happened. Maybe she will be willing to tell you everything. And for you, Mary Ouyang, do not challenge me and test my patience again and again. No one will tolerate your unreasonable conducts forever." Daisy struggled and came off the embrace of Edward, looking askance at her. She didn't get the chance to settle things with Mary on what she did yesterday. 'She really has got no shame! How dare she come up to me and question me?' Daisy thought.
"Colonel Ouyang, Mr. Mu, it is almost time for us to go back to the office. We shall leave now." Chief Yi coughed a little and said. He had long wanted to leave. However, he hesitated to disturb the intimacy between the two of them. Now that the two of them temporary separated from each other, he finally got a chance to say it out.
"Fine, Let us go out with you! It is time for us to go back too." Daisy walked out first after saying that. Everything in this house was so fascinating for her, for they reminded her of that period of happy times when her mother was still alive and lived with her in this house. However, what's gone was gone, and it was no longer possible to restore it back. In that case, why should she be reluctant to leave?
"Daisy, wait! Let's talk for a while!" Leo chased forward, trying to stop her.
"Do you think it is still necessary to have a talk between us? Mr. Ouyang, do you still remember how my mother died? Tell me, what have you done in all these years? Tonight I didn't come after you but it was not because you are my father. Instead, it was because you were the only man my mother loved. I wouldn't give you a chance to make up for what you have done. I am just feeling sorry for my mom. She would feel sad if I did anything bad to you. I hope you can see that I spare you only for my mother's sake."
Daisy said, with her footsteps stagnating a bit. However, all this while, she did not look at Leo, even once. She no longer intended to call him her father. Moreover, she did not even wish to have a relationship with him. If they were not related by blood, she wouldn't mind beating him up. But she knew she could not do that. Because her moral philosophy and professional ethics did not allow her to take such a step. Even if she had so much resentment and anger for him, she could only hold back it to the bottom of her heart.
I know that you hate me now, but I still have the audacity to hope that you can consider talking to me, for the sake of all the love that I gave you while you were little. Leo said imploringly, which his mouth twitching slightly. His senile face looked much older.
What? How dare he say that? If you didn't mention this to me, I might still have a bit respect for you. But how could you think that you can still have any relation with me, after all that happened? Never say such things in the future? It is absolutely impossible for me to forget those things and forgive you. Daisy replied coldly, without filtering her words. She did not give any chance to Leo to speak further and walked out of the house quickly.
