Hold On Mr.! Your Sweetheart is a Real Queen

Chapter 20: Chapter 20: "Hello, we meet again.

"Then, see you on the third of next month."

Bowing her head, Daisy Ginger took a puff from the cigarette between the man’s fingers, smiling as she softly spoke to him.

Her voice was low, yet it carried a naturally husky and subtly ambiguous tone that drew attention to the words sliding off her lips. As one’s gaze continued downward, they would notice her rosy lips, which currently wore a fleeting, teasing smile.

Amidst the swirling fog of their gazes, one face remained expressionless, while the other was brimming with a smile.

Edward Stephens chuckled faintly. He released Daisy’s chin, leaned back against the soft sofa, averted his gaze, and said coldly, "Get out."

He feared his uncontrollable impulse to hit her.

Daisy chuckled softly and, not pressing further, indeed left.

However, as she turned away, she kicked aside the pink lunch box Emily Ginger had brought. It was unclear why she harbored such deep-seated resentment toward her sister before she walked away with light footsteps.
