When rivals meet, the tension rises. Desmond’s presence shifted in an instant, his eyes cold as ice, a dangerous chill in the air. But Gordon remained unshaken, his military aura cutting through the space like an iron wall.
Without missing a beat, Gordon approached, his voice steady. “What’s the point of this emotional act?”
Desmond’s breath grew heavy, his chest tightening with every word. “Don’t act like you’ve already won. How long have you ever known Daisy? We’ve shared over twenty years of memories, from childhood to now. Those feelings can’t be erased that easily So, don’t get too cocky”
The words cut through the air, but Gordon only seemed surprised. “So, to you, Daisy is just a prize to be
claimed?”
Gordon shook his head slowly, his eyes never wavering from Desmond. It was clear he’d expected more from the head of the Thomas Family, but all he saw was a man blind to anything but his own stubbornness
It made sense, though. How else could he have ignored Daisy’s wishes, sending her to a psychiatric hospital without a second thought?
Gordon didn’t want to waste another word on Desmond. Without hesitation, he handed over the folder he’d been
holding, his voice cold. “This is the information I’ve gathered. Take a look.”
With that, Gordon turned, slipping into the car and Daisy still hadn’t appeared, not even sparing a glance at
Desmond.
As the car drove away, Desmond hesitated, the urge to chase it clawing at him. But through the window, he saw. Daisy and Gordon leaning close, whispering to each other and his legs turned to stone, heavy and unmoving. The closeness between them felt like daggers digging into his chest.
“What did you give to Desmond?” Daisy asked, her curiosity piqued as she glanced at Gordon
Gordon didn’t shy away from answering. “I found out some things about you, so I made a copy. I thought Desmond should know the truth.”
Daisy didn’t speak for a long while after hearing Gordon. Though she had known of his feelings for years, hearing that he’d gone to such lengths for her touched her deeply.
Seeing the silence settle between them, Gordon’s anxiety grew. “Are you mad?”
Daisy snapped back to reality, offering him a smile. “No, Gordon. Thank you.”
Her eyes were genuine, shining with a clarity that softened the scar marking her profile, yet she remained as beautiful as ever.
Gordon’s ears flushed red, but his face remained serious. “You’re welcome.”
Daisy couldn’t help but chuckle at his stiff demeanor, her eyes sparkling with amusement. She sighed softly, her eyes gleaming with the faintest hint of moisture.
How long had it been since someone cared for her so completely?
At the gate of the Davis estate, Desmond stood frozen, watching Daisy’s car disappear from view. Only then did he open the folder.
Inside, there was a voice recorder, a video player and several photographs and documents.
Desmond flipped through the stack of documents, each page revealing shocking moments from the past where Heather had carefully crafted lies to frame Daisy.
One revelation after another struck him like a punch to the gut.
The truth was so brutal that Desmond’s legs nearly buckled beneath him. He stumbled, shaking his head in disbelief. “I don’t believe this.”
“It must be Daisy trying to make me feel guilty with all this.”
After all, she was always good at twisting the truth.

“Yes, it has to be ”
In his mind, he recalled Heather’s past, growing up as an orphan after her mother passed away when she was just twelve. She had lived alone, her only company, her strength and determination.
When they had first met, Heather had seemed perfect, well–behaved, sensible and an excellent
