Hold On Mr.! Your Sweetheart is a Real Queen

Chapter 377: Chapter 405: Scars of Torment

"Edward Stephens, are you annoying?"

Her eyes were red as she glared at the face in front of her, her voice already hoarse.

"Edward Stephens, I don’t want to play with you today!"

The man looked at her, "Then what do you want to do?"

"I want to sleep."

The man let out a light laugh, reached out to turn off the lamp, rudely pulled the blanket over both their heads, and then tightly hugged her, "Alright, let’s sleep. I doubt you can sleep now!"

It was she who was being toyed with by his family, so what was he angry about?

The next morning, Daisy Ginger, who was clearly a patient still recovering from serious injuries, was treated by Edward Stephens as if she didn’t even deserve the treatment of an ordinary person.

After a simple breakfast, Daisy was alone at home, led outside by someone to bask in the sun in the courtyard.

Near the small villa where she lived, there was a beautiful garden, said to be designed by craftsmen invited by Edward Stephens’ father from New York, modeled after New York’s gardens, as a tenth wedding anniversary gift.

From any angle, one could sense that Edward Stephens’ parents were quite loving. Why then did such a normal couple raise such strange children like Robert and Edward Stephens?

Daisy couldn’t figure it out.

Daisy was being led by a servant to the garden in the woods to rest. After sitting under the shade of a tree for a short while, she heard the voices of Lady Stephens and Charlotte Smith coming from the nearby pavilion.
