Chapter 314: Chapter 313: He’s Here 1

The next day.

Daisy Ginger slept until she naturally woke up.

It was rare that the little rascal didn’t come to bother her early in the morning. Daisy lazily stretched on the bed, got up, and went to the bathroom to brush her teeth and wash her face.

When she came out of the bathroom, a child’s sharp cry suddenly erupted from outside the window.

Daisy paused, recognizing that the cry belonged to Jasper White. She subconsciously opened the door and looked towards Granny Dixon’s house across the way.

What she saw gave Daisy a huge fright!

Four or five young men were in Granny Dixon’s yard, punching and kicking three-year-old Jasper White. Granny Dixon, having heard the crying from her room, rushed out to protect her grandson, but these young men showed no mercy even to an old woman. Their fists struck the old woman’s brow, causing her to cry out in pain.

Daisy instinctively wanted to rush over, but rationality took over. She fetched a small knife from her house, clutched it in her palm, and then hurried over shouting, "What are you doing!"

The four or five young men turned their heads in unison at the sound of Daisy’s voice, their gazes fixing on her face, suddenly freezing in place.

Granny Dixon was lying on the ground, blood at the corner of her mouth. Seeing Daisy approach, she struggled to sit up and anxiously said to Daisy, "Miss Lesser, don’t mind us, you should leave quickly!"

Daisy pressed her lips together, came over to shield the old woman and child behind her, and raised her eyes to look at the gangster-like youths.

They seemed to be only seventeen or eighteen. Perhaps several weren’t even adults yet, but they lacked the spirit and youthfulness of their age, instead exuding the thuggish and roguish aura of those who hadn’t studied.

Daisy could be intimidating when she put on a stern face. Having been in a position of power for a long time, a natural authority emanated from her presence. Those small-time punks froze instinctively under her gaze.
