"Mom, Dad will get really mad if he finds out that you are injured again." Justin went upstairs with Daisy, displaying a gloating look on his round face.
Justin, why are you so happy to know that I will be scolded by your dad again?" Daisy said as she pinched his lovely round face. Had she been neglecting him recently? Why else would he favor his father instead of her this time?
"Yes. I'm very happy. You must be scolded this time because you never listen to him and end up getting yourself hurt time and again." When it came to Daisy's safety, Justin and Edward were definitely on the same page.
"Justin, do you still love your Mom?" Daisy felt sad just thinking about it. She worked really hard to bring him up. But he switched his sides so soon. Now, he was singing the same tune as his father. Daisy knew, if the father and son aligned with each other to deal with her, it would be a major disadvantage for her in the family.
"Of course I love you Mom! But more than that, I wish to see you healthy. I want to make sure that you always come back home safely." Justin said in a calm yet serious tone just like an adult. When Justin talked like that, Daisy had an illusion that it was not Justin but Edward sitting right in front of her.
I'm so sorry Justin. I got you worried again." Daisy gently embraced the adorable Justin into her arms. Despite the passage of the time and the change in the environment, Justin would always be the one to care for her the most.
"Mom, you should be okay all the time. Dad and I both need you." Justin took a deep breath, sniffing the unique fragrance coming from his mother's body. Although it was a mixed smell with a slight odor of sweat in it, he still found her fragrance to be the best.
"Don't worry. I will not leave you. To me, you are the most important people in this world. Without you two, my world will be full of darkness." If Daisy had said this to Edward, he would feel narcissistic. He would feel as if he was walking on the air. Daisy getting emotional or saying these emotional words was rare to them.
The sky in the B Country was very blue today. Edward woke up early to cater to the emergency here. But the thing was more serious than he had expected. It became tricky. He realized that the whole thing had got no where despite the whole ordeal of negotiation he had gone through during the day.
Mr. Mu, are you really going to agree to the demands of the KG company? You will give away half of our mining base to them?" Luke looked at Edward's sullen face with concern. Thinking about the argument that happened just now, he felt a little helpless. They were not in their home country so they did have a certain disadvantage in dealing with vital matters.
"Do you think that we will easily succumb? They are asking too much by demanding the half of the mining base. It seems that they don't know me very well." Edward smiled cunningly. He would never go onto grabbing things from other people's plate. But in no way would he let them take his share from the plate. If he couldn't handle such a trivial thing, he would fail to live up to the name of Edward Mu.
"But it is said that the CEO of KG is not easy to deal with and it seems that he has connections with the local gangsters. If we continue to stand firm on our decision, he might do something to harm us." Luke wouldn't be worried if he was here alone. But now Edward was with him. So, he had to take into account Edward's safety as well. Thus, it was required for him to carefully plan the whole thing.
"Huh! So what? Unless he plans to not step out of the B Country for the rest of his life, he would never do anything to harm us. He would take any action, only if he wishes a life-and-death battle between us. But, if that happens, I will really doubt his intelligence level and wonder how he acquired his solid position as the CEO." Wherever Edward went, he would be the centre of attraction. So he inevitably attracted attention from numerous admirers. This was especially true in an open-minded country like the B Country.
"Do you think it's possible that they will find someone to kill us and finish the matter once and for all?" Luke narrowed his sinister eyes, if it was really the case, they were now fully exposed to their enemy. Since one side was in the light, and the other one was in the dark, it was obvious the enemy had an advantage to win.
"Yes! So we should be more careful. Everyone we see from now on could perhaps be the killer sent by them." Despite understanding how dangerous the entire situation was, Edward did not panic at all. On the contrary, he ate all the food on his plate in a calm and composed manner.
"I know. Do we need to call to get some more people here for help?" Luke feared that he might not be able to ensure Edward's safety all by himself. He regretted not bringing more people with them.
It's too late now. They're too far away to be able to help us here. We'd better be careful by ourselves," Edward paused and said. No matter what, he would never get himself in danger, at least for the sake of Daisy.
"Are we still going to fetch the rings later?" Although he knew Edward would definitely go to get the rings, he still wanted to confirm.
"Of course, don't forget that I come here mainly for the rings." The rings were belated wedding gifts for Daisy. No matter how dangerous the situation was, he would not give that up.
But, its more dangerous if we leave the hotel. Luke tried to persuade him not to go out. He knew the rings were really very important to Edward. However, he also knew that in comparison to that rings, it was Edward's safety that was more important to Daisy.
It's okay, it wont take too long. And they wouldn't dare to hurt me so blatantly. If something really happens to me, the prime suspect would be KG. They are not that stupid to dig their own grave. Edward took a napkin and gently wiped his mouth. Then he took as a small sip of the red wine and lay back on the chair. He was lost in his thoughts.
