Kevin Clark and Gael Easton stood face to face, the surrounding air filled with palpable tension and danger. Between them was like a tensed thread, stretched thinner and tighter, on the verge of snapping at any moment.
But Daisy Zane wouldnât allow the thread to snap.
Once it snapped, both Imperial Capital and M Continent wouldnât be able to catch a breath.
Though she was curious about who might have the upper hand if both powers were to clash, there was no need to know such things, as curious as she was.
And so Daisy Zane spoke, causing the tension to slacken a bit.
âAre you two  going to keep this up until it creates some sentimental value?â
Kevin Clark:
Upon hearing this, Gael Easton immediately averted his gaze and huffed coldly.
Daisy Zane stood next to Kevin Clark, and said to Gael Easton, âIf you wish to stay in the Imperial Capital, then behave and stay here for a few days. If not, I can arrange for someone to buy a ticket for you to leave tomorrow.â
âYouâre kicking me out!â Gael Easton couldnât believe it.
âDo you think your status is suitable for a long-term stay here?â
Gael Easton choked a bit and then paused, âFine, Iâll leave. But youâre coming with me.â
Kevin Clark frowned.
Daisy Zane stared at him.
Gael Easton let out a loud huff, âWhat the hell do you think youâre doing here? Being a celebrity? Letting the whole world know about you? Have you had enough of your peaceful days?â
âI have my plans.â
âWhat plans? Planning to return to Edward Kirsten?â Gael Easton glared, chest heaving violently, âFor godâs sake  the girl from Cold Green Village is already dead. Why are you clinging to a dead personâs dream? Like you donât even want your own life!â
The nonchalant look on Daisy Zaneâs face froze instantly, her complexion going pale. The bottom of her blood-red eyes, like ice that had frozen for many years.
Cold, desolate, and heartbroken.
As if the façade had been ripped apart, revealing the rotten flesh of her heart, bleeding
Seeing this, Kevin Clark immediately grabbed Daisy Zaneâs hand, caressing the back of her hand to comfort her.
He hadnât failed to think that since the little girl had assumed Daisy Zaneâs name, either the real Daisy was gone, or she had been hidden away by the little girl.
He had been deliberately avoiding the first possibility.
He had witnessed her inability to cut ties with Cold Green Village.
Seeing her reaction, Gael Easton realized he had spoken too harshly. He looked at Daisy Zaneâs demeanor but said nothing.
âWho told you?â Daisy Zaneâs voice was hoarse after trying to suppress her emotions.
Gael Easton didnât answer.
No one told him, he found out and guessed on his own.
Not only did he know the girl from Cold Green Village had a dream to be a best actress, he also knew that she was fond of the best actress, Phoebe Turner.
Because the girl now standing in front of him used to come to Cold Green Village bearing many gifts and bearing news from the outside world related to films, even bringing with her Phoebe Turnerâs autograph.
Thatâs why the screenwriter Flynn Ninevara appeared later, precisely to pave the way for the girl from Cold Green Village.
Gael Easton said nothing; Daisy Zane didnât wait for him to speak and hoarsely continued, âGael, if you are keen on picking a fight today, letâs go to the backyard.â
Gael Easton let out a soft cough and slightly touched his nose.
Kevin Clark clearly felt the girlâs fury brewing, but she managed to suppress it.
As if there was a reason not to provoke Gael Easton.
And it definitely wasnât because of Gael Eastonâs royal status.
Seeing that he didnât say anything, Daisy Zane turned and entered the room.
âHey? You brat â Gael Easton tried to follow, but was blocked at the door by Kevin Clark.
Gael Easton looked at him, a frown creasing his brow.
âShut up and calm down.â Kevin Clark said and closed the door behind him, turning the lock for good measure.
Gael Easton stared at the door, almost furious. They had actually locked him out.
He wanted to kick the door down, but when he thought about the spoiled expression of that little girl from earlier, he held back.
Nevertheless, he didnât leave, and continued to stand at the entrance.
Anyway, his jet lag hadnât adjusted yet, and he was very alert now.
He wanted to see just how long âHartonâ could stay inside with the little girl in such a bad mood.
He was certain it wouldnât exceed a minute.
Perhaps he would be kicked out immediately.
He stood there, waiting to laugh at the spectacle.
How dare they lock him out!
âHartonâ broods a haunting and evil appearance, what vision does that spoiled girl have. Were his own wild and clean looks not good enough?
This was infuriating to him!
When Kevin Clark entered the room, Daisy Zane was standing on the balcony.
He walked over, hugged her from behind, and gave a gentle kiss on her cheek. He didnât say anything, just quietly stood with her.
At this point, any comforting words were superfluous. It was enough for her to know he was there.
Daisy Zaneâs eyelashes fluttered slightly. After a moment, she turned around and rested her head on his shoulder.
Kevin Clark slightly tightened his arms, lifting a hand to gently fold around the back of her neck.
The room lights were switched off, only the moonlight outside came into the room.
The two of them hugged. The window curtains fluttered with the night breeze, everything around them was quietly fading.
After a while, Daisy Zane said softly, âKevin Clark  Iâm a bit tired.â
Her voice was very low, as if she were whispering. It was like a leaf floating on the water, looking for shore to rest.
Kevin Clark held her tighter, whispered in her ear, âIf youâre tired, rest a little. Iâm here, always.â
Daisy Zane did not speak, she leaned on him for a while then straightened her body. She took a step back, touching her eyes, âIâm going to take a bath.â
âAlright.â
As Daisy Zane was about to leave, she looked back at him, âCan I borrow half of your bed?â
Kevin Clark raised an eyebrow, âGael Easton is still outside.â
Daisy Zane understood his meaning. He was protecting her. Even if the person outside was his romantic rival, he did not want to use her reputation to declare any dominance.
A boyfriend is a boyfriend, they hadnât yet progressed to the level of a husband who shares a bed.
What a considerate gentleman and yet  stubborn.
âSo what?â Daisy Zane responded.
Kevin Clark looked at her, and after a while, pinched her chin and smiled, âLittle girl, you trust me so easily. What if Iâm a bad guy? What if I am rubbish?â
âAre you?â Daisy Zane responded.
âNot.â Kevin Clark said, âI can prove it with the rest of my life.â
Daisy Zane raised an eyebrow and stepped toward him. Her eyes displayed strong confrontation. She looked up into Kevin Clarkâs, and lightly said, âIf you dare to hurt me  Iâll ruin you.â
Kevin Clarkâs eyes gradually filled with a smile. He raised his hand to her back head, bent down to kiss her for a moment.
Making all her valiant spirit melted away.
After releasing her, he pecked on her lips corner again, Kevin Clark said, âIâll go to my room to get my pajamas.â
âI have some here.â
âWhat?â Kevin Clark looked at her suggestively.
Daisy Zane looked back at him and headed to the restroom, âAfter some people faked drunk and slept here for a night, my room suddenly received many more belongings.â
Kevin Clark:
