Chapter 440: I’m not bad-looking, why didn’t you fancy me?

So impressive?

Daisy clicked her tongue softly.

No wonder it’s so grand, they’ve invited the entire Shelton family over.

With ten minutes left, Daisy had nothing to do, so she sat on a dining chair, chatting idly with Christopher while snacking on sunflower seeds.

Christopher used to be a special forces soldier, a serious type. Daisy would speak ten sentences, and he’d only reply once, if at all. After seven or eight minutes, footsteps and Elder Shelton’s voice were heard from outside the door.

The esteemed guest must have arrived.

Daisy swept the sunflower seed shells into the trash, sat up straight, and put on a flawless professional smile; Christopher, sitting next to her, was astonished by her quick transformation—it was as though he had never seen someone change expressions faster than flipping a book.

It wasn’t until Elder Shelton reached the doorway that Christopher got up to greet him.

"...Young Mr. Stephens is a talented youth with a promising future."

Elder Shelton’s voice came from the door as Daisy looked up, seeing Elder Shelton in a Tang suit with a cane and a well-dressed man standing beside him.

Upon hearing the words "Young Mr. Stephens," Daisy had a sense of foreboding, but seeing Edward Stephens in person still shocked her, making her stand up involuntarily.

It was Daisy’s first time seeing Elder Shelton so amiable. Dignified as a senior, he walked in with Christopher, introducing Edward: "This is my granddaughter-in-law, Daisy, she’s in the film industry. If Young Mr. Stephens has any advertising collaborations, feel free to contact her."

Edward responded coolly, looking up at Daisy, who seemed a bit stunned and dazed, with a cold gaze and a voice just as indifferent: "We’ve already met."

Elder Shelton laughed heartily, unfazed, inviting Edward to sit down, then said to Daisy, "Daisy, aren’t you going to offer a toast to Young Mr. Stephens? If it weren’t for his magnanimity, your company’s artist would still be in the detention center!"
