Chapter 522: Did she say something wrong?
Daisy was listening and found herself in a daze.
She hadn’t thought about that layer of things.
Yeah, after she fell into the cave, Emma was rescued by the search team, and she didn’t even tell the rescuers to come find her.
It was Edward who searched for an entire night to rescue her.
If it weren’t for the dead leaves at the bottom of that high cave, it wouldn’t have been just a minor concussion for her.
After a while, Daisy slowly exhaled and sighed softly, "...You’re right, I really almost didn’t make it."
No matter what Emma was thinking that day, whether she was too scared to speak up or deliberately withheld information, her hidden thoughts were not righteous.
Thinking about how that day she gave her water and painkillers, and even helped her to the restroom, Daisy felt a bit angry.
She hadn’t wronged her, right? So why would she want her dead?
She originally wanted to ask Edward what was up with him and Emma, why he treated her that way, but now it seemed he was avenging her.
Thinking of this, Daisy felt a slight warmth in her chest and had an impulsive urge to hang up on Elena just to hear the man’s voice.
Elena spoke on the phone, "Jiujiu, is it Mr. Stephens who got Sister Kowalski banned from the entire internet?"
The relationship between Edward Stephens and Daisy, although Daisy never said anything, Elena had been around Daisy enough to catch some clues.
After all, that night when Daisy didn’t come back, he rushed back to the mountains overnight to find her, regardless of anything.
The mountains were so deep, and at night, full of dangers, any misstep could lead to falling off a cliff. He was ready to risk it all to find Daisy.
Daisy: "Hanging up."
"Ah?"
"Beep beep beep——"
"???" Elena stared at the darkened phone screen, eyes wide open.
Did she say something wrong?
...
...
...
When Daisy called Edward Stephens, she found out he was still sleeping.
A low, hoarse male voice came from the phone, laced with a hint of drowsiness. Daisy couldn’t help but chuckle, "It’s already noon, how long are you going to sleep?"
Edward had pulled an all-nighter dealing with documents and wasn’t fully awake yet. Hearing Daisy’s voice, his mind was a little fuzzy.
He asked, "What’s up?"
"Can’t I just call you for no reason?"
Edward became a bit more alert, climbing out of the covers to lean against the headboard, "Being courteous for no reason."
Daisy didn’t like that comment.
"Why are you always so suspicious?"
The man chuckled, "Come on, what do you need?"
"Have you eaten?"
"..." He probably wasn’t fully awake yet and couldn’t quite keep up with Daisy’s pace. "...Not yet, why?"
"I’m almost off work." Daisy said, "You’re alone at home, right? I’ll bring you some food."
The man listened and chuckled. He was indeed home alone, but with servants at home, he wouldn’t starve.
But seeing how eager Daisy was to throw herself into his arms today, he naturally wouldn’t refuse.
"Then hurry up and come over," he said reservedly, "or I won’t wait to eat."
"OK!"
Daisy replied and hung up the phone.
Edward leaned against the headboard, rubbing his chin.
This woman, so enthusiastic today, did she take the wrong medicine?
Or did he do something wrong that she had to personally come over to question him?
As Edward pondered Daisy’s thoughts, he unknowingly fell back asleep.
