"Daisy, we can.""Henry, we're going home." Daisy interrupted Axel with an absolute command."I don't want to." Henry stopped chewing and looked directly at Daisy, stubbornly refusing."Why not? What's your reason?" Daisy impatiently demanded."I want to go to Cha Axel's home," Henry honestly admitted."Henry, I've told you," Daisy reminded him, trying to control her emotions. She was on the verge of losing her temper. Meeting Axel had left Daisy confused and her emotions unstable."I don't want to," Henry shouted suddenly, accusing Daisy. "You lied to me. Dad Axel is not too busy with work. You didn't bring me here for the safety of either of us. I don't know why you took me away from Axel's father's house, but you lied to me.”Daisy wasn't surprised that Henry easily discovered her lie. Henry was a smart and perceptive child. Daisy had anticipated this, but she hadn't expected Henry's reaction to be so determined and forceful. Daisy had hurt her son's feelings, and she knew it, but
That day, it was raining heavily. Despite the kind advice from the neighbors, Axel remained outside, standing in the pouring rain, waiting for Daisy to open the door. Axel's determination earned him the respect of many, but it also stirred feelings of sympathy.Inside her room, Daisy could hear and know everything that was happening outside. However, she had made up her mind not to waver.After enduring six hours of heavy rain, Axel finally collapsed. Kind neighbors took him into their home and took care of him when he had a high fever.The next day, in a daze, Daisy suddenly jolted awake upon hearing an announcement from the neighbor."Daisy, your husband has a fever."Many hours passed. Axel was still unconscious, and his fever was quite severe.Daisy, feeling perplexed, was inside her room. She was genuinely concerned about Axel's condition and wanted to personally take care of him, but she lacked the courage to step out and check on him. Daisy wasn't a coward; she was just too stu
"Why would you speak of your mother like that?" Daisy scolded. "It's utterly uncalled for. If your mother heard what you said, she would undoubtedly be heartbroken.""You don't know anything, so just stay quiet," Axel snapped in anger.Daisy was taken aback by Axel's reaction, but she quickly regained control of the situation."It's true; I don't know anything about you," Daisy admitted. "We've never truly understood each other, and our views have never aligned. Anyway, your attitude towards your mother is a matter between you and her, unrelated to mine. Therefore, you don't have to be impatient with me.""My mother is dead," Axel finally revealed, thinking that Daisy didn't understand his earlier statement, leaving Daisy shocked and skeptical."Daisy, you've been deceived." Feeling the tension in the room, Amelia hurriedly explained, "My mother and Axel passed away. Axel was just seven years old at the time, and I was twelve. The woman named Mia is my stepmother, my father's second w
At that moment, from out of nowhere, an older man appeared, leading his 10-year-old son. They pushed through the crowd in front of the emergency room. As soon as they saw the lifeless body, the man grabbed his son's hand and ran towards it, then hugged the lifeless body and cried out."My wife! How could you leave me and our son so early?"The man's voice trembled as he cried, while the child sobbed loudly. The cries jolted Axel awake, and he raised his blank face to look at the man hugging the lifeless body. The man also looked back at Axel, both wearing expressions of indescribable astonishment."Who are you, and why were you crying for my wife?" A man asked in confusion."What do you mean? Your wife?" Axel's words left the man equally baffled. What was going on here? He suddenly felt disoriented."Mommy, please don't leave me." The voice of a child caught Axel and the man's attention. Upon realizing that the child was not Henry, Axel's confusion deepened. So, that wasn't Daisy. Axe
"How are you?" Rosa asked when she saw Mrs. Mia's pale face.Mrs. Mia couldn't say anything when suddenly the police appeared."Rosa Taylor and Mia Wilson, you both are under arrest for conspiracy to commit murder. Please come with us," declared the stern police officer."We haven't done anything!" Mrs. Mia immediately denied the accusation, while Rosa was still trying to grasp the situation."What you said has been recorded—enough evidence to charge you both before the law," Amelia arrogantly proclaimed, holding up a recording device for them to see."Please come with us," the police officer requested a second time."I haven't done anything wrong." Mrs. Mia continued to deny the accusation as she was led away by the police.It was only then that Rosa realized she was being arrested. Not wanting to go to jail, Rosa used her strength to push the police officer and run out of the coffee shop. The police officer chased after her, and unfortunately, something terrible happened. While runn
It is currently 8 o'clock in the evening at a luxurious and upscale restaurant.Axel Smith completely dislikes the prevailing atmosphere in this private room. The conceit and hypocrisy of everyone around him really made him nauseous. Axel wants to leave as soon as possible, but he keeps pondering without finding a valid reason to persuade his father to allow him to go. Therefore, Axel reluctantly sits here, gritting his teeth, enduring the performance of unwilling actors who are engrossed in acting out a comedy play."We should choose a really auspicious day to organize the wedding for the young ones," Ryan Patel, a man, said, disrupting the peaceful and monotonous atmosphere and creating a sense of tension as well as generating excitement.Everyone ceased eating and drinking, their gazes directed towards the man who had just spoken. While most people focused on listening, eagerly anticipating, Axel wore a bewildered expression on his face. Observing Axel's reaction, Ryan turned to Mi
Rosa had just run out the door when she saw Axel getting ready to get in the car and leave the restaurant."Axel, wait a minute." Rosa used all her strength to scream.Hearing the call, Axel stopped his action and turned to look at Rosa, who was hastily approaching him.Rosa, who had just approached Axel, quickly spoke:"Axel, I'm really sorry for what happened. But please come back.""If you're running after me just to ask for something trivial like coming back, forget about it," Axel coldly interrupted."Axel, please don't be like this. Let's discuss and resolve whatever issues we have together, okay?" Rosa pleaded earnestly, trying to persuade him. However, Axel refused to listen any further and calmly got into the car.Rosa tried to hold onto Axel's hand, but he pushed her away.The car door slammed shut right in front of Rosa, causing her to startle. Immediately after, Rosa forcefully banged on the car door, repeatedly demanding:"Axel, open the door!"Unfortunately, Axel was det
"Axel. Do you dare to bet with me?" Rosa haughtily repeated.Rosa felt exhilarated as she successfully struck a blow to Axel's pride. Rosa believed that in front of his friends, Axel wouldn't be able to reject her suggestion. If Axel hesitates, Rosa believes that Axel's friends will stand by her side and, when they speak up, they will urge Axel to accept and comply with Rosa's request. Prior to this encounter, Rosa had messaged Axel's friends, seeking their help in persuading Axel. And true to Rosa's calculations, Axel's friends showed immediate interest upon hearing about this betting situation."Axel, if you're a true man, then accept the challenge," Dion said, aiming to provoke Axel."That's right, Axel. This seems interesting. We'll also participate," Zane added, turning to look at the others. "What do you guys think?""Great idea, Zane. Count me in as well. If Axel wins the bet, I'll give him my newly purchased car," Tom declared loudly."As for me, I'll cover everything that Axe
