The Mayfly was neither a righteous nor an evil organization, so it was difficult to evaluate its existence at this time. But as long as it did not threaten the interests and peace of the country, it played a certain role in society. For now, Daisy decided to wait and see before making further judgments about the Mayfly. After all, it was not surprising that such an organization existed. It was just a matter of how people perceived it.
"Don't worry. We'll know the answer soon enough," Cynthia replied, patting Daisy on the shoulder. She always thought that her daughter-in-law was too thin. Especially after the injury, Daisy looked thinner now. The first time she saw her, she was in high and vigorous spirits. But now, she was quite different. It seemed that she was in need of Mrs. Wu's nutritious cooking.
"Well, I'm in no hurry." Daisy smiled lightly, maintaining a calm demeanor. Although she was a little curious about the surprise, she didn't insist on finding out more about it now. She was convinced that since it was a surprise, it would definitely be a good thing. There was no need to think about it so much. But she did not expect that Jonathan would give her a wonderful present when she nearly gave up bringing Yakira to justice for her crimes. Jonathan had the inspection records of her mother's car accident, with photographic evidence attaching to the documents. Moreover, the photos placed Paul Du at the scene. With so much evidence against her, Yakira was sent to prison again. And this time, she could never be released in her lifetime. Although Daisy felt sorry for Brian, she needed to avenge her poor mother.
Thank you, dad." A while after Jonathan explained everything to her, Daisy expressed her sincere gratitude. After all, she once thought that she could never find the evidence to send Yakira to jail. But he helped her get everything that she needed. At that moment, in addition to being immensely grateful, she was deeply moved by his actions.
"Don't forget, we are family. You don't need to thank me. Besides, we're just fulfilling the promise we made to your mother," Jonathan replied. This was the longest statement Jonathan had ever made in front of another woman. From his words, it was clear that he treated Daisy as family.
What kind of promise? You met my mother before?" Daisy suddenly got nervous. Although she wanted to gather every bit of information about her mother, she was afraid of finding out something she would rather not know. It was inevitable for her to feel a little bit of anxiety.
Do you know why we arranged for your marriage to Edward regardless of his objections? When your mother got into the car accident, we happened to be there. So we had the first-hand information about the accident. To be honest, your mother really loved you a lot. Otherwise, she wouldn't ask us to help take care of you at such a crucial moment. She didn't even care about her own safety. In her heart, you are always the priority," Cynthia recounted.
Every time she remembered the tragic scene from that time, she couldn't help getting tear-eyed. Her voice trembled with deep emotion as she spoke.
Edward immediately took Daisy in his arms. He never thought that this was the reason his parents made him marry Daisy no matter how much he objected. But after they got married, instead of giving her happiness, he inflicted both physical and mental hurt upon her. In this case, didn't he fail to live up to the faith his mother-in-law entrusted to his parents?
He gently kissed the top of her head. At first, he was thrilled at the news of Yakira being sent to prison. But he didn't think he would fall into the abyss of pain so quickly. The pain he felt was because of his mother-in-law's great maternal love. Edward loved Daisy dearly. He could only give her more love and affection to reduce the distress he had previously caused her. Only then could his mother-in-law rest in peace.
Edward wasn't the only one who was caught off guard. Daisy didn't expect it either. But what shocked her more was her mother's love for her. She did not know how to express the shock she felt in the depths of her heart. She could only let the tears blur her vision and wet Edward's clothes.
She did not expect that her mother was the one who arranged her marriage. Maybe it was destiny that led her to find her other half. But on the way, she neglected her mother's expectations and did not live as her mother had wished. Fortunately, she lowered her pride and gave Edward a chance. They could live happily today.
Now, she cherished this hard-earned happiness very much. Not only for her own sake, but also for her mother's ardent wishes, she wouldn't allow herself to live in a horrible life. She needed to live happily as her mother wished for her. This would be the best gift she could give her mother.
As for Leo, she did not want to forgive him. Even though he was already alone, the hatred she felt for him was a kind of deeply rooted resentment that she couldn't let go. Maybe one day, she would be able to forgive him and not hold onto his mistakes anymore. But that was nearly impossible. However, she was not a cold-blooded animal, so she would never hinder anyone around her from contacting him. This was the only thing that she would do for him. If he wanted to repair their relationship, it would be very difficult. After all, they didn't have a mediator that would provide the opportunity to help her forgive him.
