Chapter 431: 381: Nepotism



By the time they returned to Dark Radiance, it was already early in the morning.

The car had been modified, and the seats inside had been changed as well.

Allonzo Hobson was in the copilot seat.

Arthur North and Daisy Zane were separated by a Silver Palace.

Yoshua Archer and Edward Darkmoon, along with Thomas Firway, were sitting on the opposite side of Arthur North.

Allonzo Hobson and Thomas Firway didn’t know the truth yet; they were merely curious because Silver Palace was obediently following Daisy Zane, so they boarded the car along with them.

This Silver Palace… sometimes it even ignored Arthur North’s words.

They had seen this wolf being obedient in front of Martin Hanzel before.

Yoshua and Edward were simply curious if the woman in front of them was indeed Martin.

As the car started, Arthur North found some wet wipes from inside and wiped the blood from Daisy Zane’s hands and face.

Daisy Zane kept touching the fur on Silver Palace’s neck.

“Look at me,” Arthur North said gently.

Daisy Zane looked up at him, and Arthur North smiled at her. As he wiped the blood from under her eyes, he said, “Is Madam not planning to talk to me?”

Yoshua and Edward’s eyes had never been so wide open before.

They had heard that the Boss’s wife had arrived.

However, they hadn’t met her yet, and they hadn’t expected her to be the person in front of them.

Moreover, this person seemed to be Martin.

This, this, this…

Thomas Firway seemed to have no reaction, but Allonzo Hobson looked back, thinking the two had been quarreling.

Daisy Zane pursed her lips and remained silent.

The man who made her fear, respect, and be grateful to, had made her sleep.

It could be said that without Arthur North at that time, Daisy Zane would not exist now.

Martin, the Nameless of the Darknight Alliance, the Hundred Demons Pavilion… these were all based on that nearly one year of training.

Although Daisy Zane did not show it, the impact of this revelation was still significant for her.

She didn’t even know how to get along with Arthur North now.

Seeing her not speaking, Arthur North didn’t force it.

After he had wiped her hands and face clean, he held her hand and looked at Yoshua and Edward, saying, “My Lady.”

Yoshua and Edward stared at Daisy Zane, supposed to greet her, but the two brothers’ throats seemed to be pinched, unable to make a sound.

Instead, Daisy Zane looked at the two of them, paused for a moment, and said softly, “It’s been a long time.”

The two brothers suddenly paused, and their pupils trembled deeply. Then Yoshua muttered, “F**k!”

Edward gasped a cold breath.

And Thomas Firway glanced at the two brothers suddenly.

Allonzo Hobson quickly looked back as well.

Someone who could make Silver Palace so obedient and who hadn’t seen Yoshua and Edward in a long time. This person was…

Allonzo Hobson was close to the truth in his heart, but he didn’t dare to approach it, his hands trembling.

If…if it was Martin…

Hugo Clark, being a man, Arthur North was afraid for his life and had him quit.

She, being a girl, and a few years ago…how old was she then?

Arthur North…would be heartbroken.

And…this charge of treason…

Daisy Zane, noticing Thomas Firway’s reaction, looked at him as well.

Arthur North introduced, saying, “Thomas Firway is Harrison Theodore.”

Daisy Zane looked at him for a moment, then raised the corner of her mouth and said slowly, “You’ve grown up.”

Thomas Firway looked at Daisy Zane, and suddenly, his eyes began to redden. His Adam’s apple moved slightly, and his mind was a bit chaotic, but still, he called out, “Third Brother.”

Daisy Zane’s eyelashes trembled slightly.

She didn’t know her exact age. But after the four of them were selected, she didn’t want to be the youngest. So she claimed to be older than Thomas Firway.

At that time, Thomas Firway wasn’t as tall, and he wasn’t as… sturdy. He looked like a child.

Actually, among them, Yoshua and Edward were the ones who hadn’t changed their appearances too much.

At that time, Daisy Zane had completely disguised herself as a man, cutting her hair and binding her chest.

So… no one recognized each other.

During the training and after the selection of the four of them, she always took care of Thomas Firway more, considering his young age.

So, Thomas Firway was really close to her during those times. Always calling her Third Brother.

Who would have thought that the next time they met, he would be the one who despised her the most?

When they returned to Dark Radiance, it was already getting a bit bright outside.

Kevin Clark let Alonzo Hobson deal with the people they had brought back and had someone take care of Enamel Cannon’s wounds.

He took Daisy Zane back to the room.

As soon as they left, Alonzo Hobson, Thomas Firway, Yoshua, and Edward stood still, no one moving for a while.

After standing there pointlessly for a while, Alonzo Hobson went to handle the matter first.

Then, after a pause, Thomas Firway said, “So she really is …”

Yoshua covered his mouth, not letting him finish the sentence.

Edward immediately whispered, “Let’s just keep this a secret, don’t mention it again. She’s our big boss’s wife, and that’s it.”

Thomas Firway understood right away.

Martin Hanzel carried the crime of treason.

If pursued, even if they didn’t die… they would probably be crippled.

Should they pursue, it’s their boss’s wife. If not, how would they set rules and satisfy the public? Would anyone be able to leave at any time?

So, they must stop spreading this issue.

Thomas Firway nodded, showing that he understood. Only then did Yoshua let him go.

Then the three of them went to work separately.

Back in the room, Kevin Clark took Daisy Zane directly to the restroom. He took off her coat and threw it on the ground, lifting her onto the washbasin.

He squeezed in between her legs, looking down at her.

Daisy unconsciously moved back a bit, but Arthur North held her waist.

“Are you afraid of me?” Arthur North asked her.

The hands that Daisy placed on the washbasin clenched slowly.

“Little girl, look at me.”

Daisy didn’t move.

Arthur North held her chin, making her look up at him, “Little girl, I am Arthur North, just Arthur North to you.”

Daisy looked at the gentle expression in his eyes.

“The terrible, cold-blooded person you once knew will never appear in front of you again,” Arthur North gazed deeply at her. After a pause, he whispered, “Can you not be afraid of me?”

Daisy looked at him.

Her reactions had been calm from the start, and it was impossible to see any emotional fluctuations.

But Arthur North sensed it; she was a little afraid of him. Even… she was no longer close to him.

Even though they were together, he felt the distance between them had grown.

It took Daisy a while before she lowered her gaze, resting her forehead on his shoulder.

Arthur North immediately held her, kissing her ear.

The two of them held each other in silence, listening to each other’s heartbeat.

As the time slowly passed, Daisy moved a bit and leaned on his shoulder, saying, “I’m sorry. I have something I must do, and I can only leave.”

“I know.” Arthur North stroked her head, “You don’t need to apologize. And don’t worry, I’ll handle everything.”

Daisy understood his meaning, “You’re planning to bend the rules.”

Arthur North laughed lightly and said, “What’s wrong with bending some rules for my own wife?”

Daisy chuckled.

“You are Mrs. Clark,” Arthur North said, “No one dares to touch you.”

No one could touch you.
