Chapter 172 Youre Not Gonna Let Go of Her
Finally everyone was at the table. Now they learned that Daisy was quite an excellent cook. She was a beauty in the hall and a chef in the kitchen. And they respected her even more. They all secretly envied Edward's good luck for marrying such a perfect woman.
Daisy excused herself after the meal and went upstairs to work. Edward knew she was quite busy with the upcoming military exercise. Her weary look made him heartbroken, yet he could do nothing to help. The only thing he could do was to give her a quiet working environment and not bother her.

"Talk about luck, new girl's even hotter than this bitch here." Thugs were called that for a reason. Even with a girl as ruthless as Daisy, they'd flirt. They never knew how to behave themselves.
"What? You're not gonna let go of her?" Daisy's cold face turned impatient, scowling at the thug holding the girl. She had a devil's aura —— the crowd shuddered and suddenly got goosebumps.
"Wow. That hottie has a hot temper, huh? That's okay. It's better when they fight back." They moved in on her, hoping to at least frighten her. They wanted to be tigers, waiting to pounce on their prey. They didn't know they were merely jackals instead.
