Daby still had no clue who was behind all of this. She just kept insulting him without pause,
Throughout the whole ordeal, she kept spewing words that were almost unbearable to hear.
Daisy was still ranting, oblivious to the gravity of the situation. “Let go of me! Do you have any idea who I am! I’m the daughter of the Lever family.
Tm engaged to Harlan, a talented doctor, and if my parents or my hancé know about this, they’ll make you and your boss regret it!
“Who’s the bastard behind Elaine? Do you have any idea what will happen to him for crossing me? I make sure he’ll be driven away City! And as for Elame, she get the same treatment!
“Can’t you hear me?”
She was cut off as the bodyguards remained unfazed, not reacting to her threats in the slightes
They just dug at their ears like they couldn’t stand her noise, and finally muttered a curse word under their breath.
It was then that Daisy realized they couldn’t understand what she was saying.
Tve been yelling at them for nothing. Elaine really plays dirty!‘ she thought.
Meanwhile, the secretary at the door, watching Daisy still shouting, couldn’t help but feel comtempt

The woman kept shouting threats at the bodyguards, unaware that the man who hired them is none other than Mr. Morgan, he thought.
When they entered the office, Daisy froze. As soon as she saw Kingsley seated at the desk, her bravado crumbled and her legs went weak.
“M–Mr. Morgan” she stammered, her voice barely a whisper.
Elaine couldn’t help but smirk at Daisy’s sudden shift.
“Daisy” she said with a mocking sweetness, “didn’t you say bodyguards! They work for Mr. Morgan”

Dairy’s face went ashen, her confidence completely evaporating.
Alf had enough of Daisy’s insolence. He stepped forward, his face hard.
“How dare you be so rude to Mr. Morgan?” he snapped, his voice icy
Without a word, he slapped Daisy hard across the face.
Elaine turned to Shawn with a smile, her voice dripping with sarcasm. “Shawn, I know why you held the meeting today. You came to punish me And the reason? It’s so childish, it’s almost ridiculous,
“Because of a dress. Apparently, I ‘stole‘ a dress Daisy wanted to buy for Blanca. Can you believe in?”
Tucker blinked, shocked. “What?” he asked, incredulous.
He never expected that Shawn would go as far as asking Elaine to give up Starlight Fashion over a single dress
Elaine let out a low chuckle. “Oh, and it gets better. The whole stealing the dress‘ story! It’s a lie!
Shawn’s expression shifted, anger giving way to surprise.
sy’s face turned pale with panic, her eyes darting away as she stammered, struggling to find the words.
Daisy’s
But Kingsley wasn’t about to give her any chance to escape. With his cold, ruthless expression, he lifted his foot, preparing to strike at her chest.
She had heard the rumors about Kingsley’s coldness. Some said he once kicked his own brother several feet across a mom, and the thought of bring on the receiving end of his wrath sent a jolt of fear through her.
Fear took over her, and she screamed, hurriedly spilling the truth, “Elaine didn’t didn’t steal the dress
“I was the one who tried to take it, but she humiliated me, and I… I couldn’t take it. I wanted revenge. That’s why I said those things.”
