Lin Shen drove his car towards the restaurant to meet with Daisy. A lot of things were going through his mind and all of them had to do with Ana.
He couldn't get Ana's words out of his mind. Lin Shen vowed to find out the truth. His quest for the truth was now a desire burning within him.
Lin Shen pulled over and got down from the car. He entered the restaurant and saw Daisy seated at the window side. She looked up and met with his gaze and smiled.
The people in the restaurant, especially the women were all looking at her with envy and she felt satisfied just being the envy of so many women.
''Lin Shen… I was surprise when my aunt told me you called and asked to meet me'' Daisy said softly, trying to contain the excitement in her heart. She was elated and jumped all over the room when she received the message from her aunt earlier.
Lin Shen looked at her and smirked. He pulled out the chair and sat down before asking sarcastically, ''really?''
''Yes. Actually, after last night, I didn't think that you will call me again'' Daisy revealed a rare smile. She wrapped her fingers around the glass of juice and took a sip.
''Were you really not expecting my call? Daisy, right?'' Lin Shen's lips curved into a mocking smirk.
''Yes?'' Daisy flushed.
''Why did you send pictures of me and Ana to the reporter and also to her stepbrother? What did you hope to achieve by doing that?'' Lin Shen looked at her as he spoke. He was capturing her expressions which changed gradually.
''I… I don't know what you are talking about''
''I should have known that you were up to no good when you started badmouthing Ana'' Lin Shen said and chuckled.
''What?''
'I don't know what your aunt told you but I am not interested in women like you. In fact, I hate women who play dirty and try to hurt others just to achieve their goals. I came to tell you to stay away from me and also to go and make things clear with Ana that I am not behind this''
''Why should I make it clear? Is it because you like her and don't want her to be mistaken about you? She is your brother's ex-fiancé. Don't tell me you also want to date her after your brother is done using her?...'' Daisy laughed and sipped the juice before adding with confidence, ''but… you may have to join the queue because I heard Richard Hough likes her and wants to woo her''
''What?'' Lin Shen looked at her and chuckled.
''I know you don't like me but I just hate women like Ana who act innocent while messing with men. You don't like women like me? I don't like you either. I just wanted to use your family name to get higher status but what is the use if the man is rude and arrogant?'' Daisy didn't bother to put up an act at this point. What was the use when she was already exposed?
''It's good that we are clear on that. Now, I am going to mess with you and make you understand that I don't tolerate people who use me. The He hotel that you are so proud of… let's see what becomes of it once I upload this recording'' Lin Shen stood up and showed his phone with Daisy's confession in it.
''You…'' Daisy stood up and stretched her hand to snatch the phone and Lin Shen stepped back.
''Let's see whose word is against who'' Lin Shen said and walked out.
''Hey!'' Daisy yelled and the people looked at her. She picked her bag and ran out of the place but Lin Shen had driven away already.
….
Ana and Jessy's apartment.
Jessy opened the door and walked in. She changed her shoes and entered the hall and saw Ana playing a video game. She was sitting on the floor cussing out as she played.
Jessy smiled and went to sit on the couch and looked at the screen and spoke. ''It looks like I was worried for nothing. You look completely fine''
''That's because I cussed out that Yu bastard''
''Were you playing games the whole day?''
''Mm''
''I wanted to come home early, but I knew you would want to be alone. Are you alright?''
''Yes, I'm fine. Can't you see I'm playing games right now? Want to join me?''
''No. I'm tired''
''Okay, go and shower and come out. Let's have some drinks''
''What drinks?''
'You can take alcohol. I will just have juice''
''I brought some street meat. It will be perfect for it''
''Now that you mentioned street meat, I hate my sickness. Should I just go for the surgery so that I can start taking alcohol?''
''Stop talking nonsense. I will be back soon''
….
''Cheers''
''Cheers''
Ana and Jessy clacked the glasses against each other and started drinking.
''This actually taste good'' Jessy said as she looked at her glass of beer.
''Don't mock me with that alcohol. I'm hating on my life right now''
''Oops, my bad''
''I will pour my sorrows in this street meat'' Ana said and picked a piece of meat to eat.
''You can have it all''
….
Lee Family Manor.
''Son, how did it go today?'' Gloria met Andrew at the door and asked.
''Mom, we won…'' Andrew said as he closed the door to his room and went closer to his mother.
''So, that wrench is out of the company for good now?'' Gloria asked with a smile.
''Yes. Whoever sent those photos did me a great favor. I should find who they are and award them. This was the catalyst we needed to make the Directors boycott the meeting and blame it on Ana'' Andrew sat down in the hall and Gloria sat across him.
''That's great. Now that she is out of the company, when your father retires at the end of the year, the company will be all yours''
''Yes, that's true''
