Chapter 2418
Daisie sneered, stood on tiptoe, and kissed him on his chin. “Then, should I wait for your retaliation after this?”
Nollace laughed and hugged her tightly. “There’s nothing I can do about you now.”
The two kissed, but Daisie’s cell phone rang, interrupting the atmosphere suddenly and causing Nollace’s expression to dim again.
Daisie picked up her phone and saw it was a call from Leah.
She looked at Nollace and blinked. “Hubby, may I?”
Seeing that she still cared about his feelings, he did not feel as infuriated as he was minutes ago anymore. He then gave her a peck on the forehead. “Go.”
“Love you!” She kissed him on the cheek and walked aside to answer the phone.
Leah was waiting for her in a café. Soon, she saw a woman wearing a mask and hat walk into the cafe. She came straight to her table, took off her coat, looked around carefully, and removed her mask. “Leah, what’s wrong with Zephir? What happened?”
Leah stirred her coffee’s foam. “Who knows? He said he had a little too much to drink, and the other party was the person who started it. The police didn’t hold him accountable. They only gave him a lecture and sent him back home.”
Daisie lowered her eyes, and it seemed that millions of thoughts were flashing across her mind.
Leah looked at her. “Are you really pregnant?”
She paused for a bit and nodded.
“Congratulations, you’ve actually become a mom so soon.” Leah laughed after saying that and added emotionally, “I really envy you. You have a successful career, and you got to marry the man you love.”
Daisie covered the back of her hand. “You can do it too.”
Leah was slightly startled and then laughed out loud. “Me? Forget it. I’m not going to ask for too much. I’ll just be content with whatever I have.”
Daisie suddenly asked, “Didn’t you have a boyfriend?”
Ever since she got to know Leah, it seemed that she had never seen or heard any news about her dating any man.
Leah shrugged. “Yes, I had. After I went abroad, I got together with a Eurasian master’s student. However, we broke up in less than half a year. And the reason we broke up was that he thought I was too mature and rational, but he liked someone younger and more innocent.”
“Is that even a reason?” Daisie was puzzled.
But after giving it a good thought, she felt that something seemed wrong. “So, did he cheat on you?”
‘If he didn’t cheat on Leah, why would he say something about fancying women who are more innocent?
‘Since he liked a young and innocent lady from the beginning, why waste six months‘ worth of time with Leah?‘
Leah picked up her coffee and took a sip from the mug slowly. “Actually, I don’t blame him because I realized that I don’t like him that much either.”
Maybe it was because she did not like him that much, so she did not care much about the other party cheating on her and asking to break up.
Daisie looked at her and did not say a thing.
In her impression, Leah had always been a very rational person, had a very straightforward temper, had never beaten around the bush when talking to someone else, would not hide her emotions from anyone that she hated, and would not pretend to play nice.
The two left the cafe, and Leah stopped in front of her car and looked back at Daisie. “Daisie, if you have the time, try to talk some sense into Zephir. I think he’ll listen to you.”
Daisie froze in place.
After watching Leah get into her car and leave the café’s parking lot, Daisie’s eyes moved as if she was thinking about something. After a while, she picked up her phone and looked for Zephir’s number.
‘It’s indeed time to have a chat with him. After all, I really don’t want him to go astray.‘
However, no one answered Daisie’s calls. And just when she was about to give up, a woman answered the call, and that woman was none other than Zoey.
Seeing that it was Daisie’s call, Zoey laughed. “Daisie Vanderbilt, aren’t you ashamed of yourself? You’re already married, so why are you still pestering Zephir?”
Daisie was taken aback and frowned. “Why is it you?”
