Chapter 331: Chapter 330: The Pain of Losing a Child

"Daisy..." It took quite a while before Lady Stephens spoke in a somewhat panicked voice, "I, I don’t know... I, I’ll call Edward and ask him now..."

She hastily picked up the landline from the coffee table, ready to dial Edward Stephens, but Daisy stopped her.

Daisy helplessly reached out and pressed down on Lady Stephens’ hand, speaking softly, "What good will it do for you to call him now?"

Lady Stephens looked at her, pale and somewhat at a loss. Daisy gazed intently into Lady Stephens’ eyes and could tell that she truly seemed unaware of the situation.

She was well-protected by her two sons, living a worry-free life, doing whatever she pleased, with someone always covering for her when she made mistakes.

She had been deceived by such a naive and foolish woman for an entire year. If not for Robert Stephens having ulterior motives and informing her of the truth, she might have been kept in the dark for the rest of her life.

Daisy smirked slightly in her heart when she heard Lady Stephens cautiously ask her, "Then... what should we do? Daisy, I really don’t know..."

"I know." Daisy interrupted her, "You call Robert Stephens, have him talk to Edward Stephens."

She recalled last time when Robert Stephens took her to the United States and showed her Edward Stephens’ grave just to force her and him to divorce.

And now, his brother was going to take her to settle in Chicago; with that man’s controlling nature, he surely wouldn’t allow it, right?

Daisy had been pondering for days but found no way to escape Edward Stephens’ control. She was helpless, broke, and had nothing to fight against him with.

After much thought, the only hope she could place was in Robert Stephens.

The young man sitting in a wheelchair brought her unspeakable fear, like a black hole capable of swallowing everything. She couldn’t even gaze at him for long. If she could, she really didn’t want to involve him.

She didn’t have Robert Stephens’ contact information. After Edward Stephens sent her back to Banyan City, Robert had not contacted her again.

She couldn’t understand his intentions, but at least in terms of separating her from Edward Stephens, their interests should align, right?

She could only have Lady Stephens contact him to test his stance.
