Chapter 4 Chapter 4 By the time I quickly picked it up , it was too late . [ ] The manuscript had fallen into the chili sauce , and the red - orange oil stains rapidly soaked through the paper , nearly obliterating the content . I trembled as I tried to absorb the oil with tissues , barely able to stand . [ ] Seeing this , Kai's tone was clearly panicked : " Daisy ... I had no idea this would happen . Jordan didn't mean to drop it . You startled her just now - you bear some responsibility too . Let's just call it even . " [] He protectively shielded Jordan behind him . Holding back tears , I slapped him directly . [] " What do you mean forget it ? That was my mother's posthumous work ! " ] " Taking without asking is stealing . What gives you the right to say forget it ?! " ] " Kai , I haven't even settled accounts with you yet . Do you think you're innocent ? " ] He seemed angered by my words , his face darkening as he scolded : " It's just a manuscript . Dead objects only have value when living people use them . Can't you be more magnanimous ? " At worst , I'll have someone restore it for you . Why does a woman need to be so aggressive ? " ] ] " Daisy , can't you learn from Jordan and be more understanding ? " I looked at him in disbelief , tears falling silently . Kai paused , sighed , and reached to wipe my tears , his tone softening : " Alright , I spoke too harshly , okay ? I promise to have mom's manuscript properly restored . Stop crying . " This sudden tenderness only made me feel disgusted . I pushed him away inconspicuously and turned to leave , but Jordan grabbed the hand holding the manuscript tightly . " I'm sorry , Daisy . I really didn't mean to let If you're still angry , you can hit me or scold me , but please don't make Kai ignore me , okay ? " ` I didn't want to deal with her and tried to shake free , but her nails dug into my flesh . [ ] In a flash , Jordan cried out " Ah ! " and dramatically fell backward , about to hit the table corner- Kai quickly caught her in his arms . She sobbed dramatically , her voice shaking : " I was just trying to say sorry to Daisy , but she wouldn't accept it and then shoved me ... I can't do anything right ! " ] With that , she pretended to throw herself at the table again . [] Kai was completely enraged . He stopped Jordan and turned to shout at me : " There's no need to be so dramatic over such a small matter ! Daisy , your mother is gone . Who are you putting on this show for ? Do you want Jordan to pay with her life for a dead person's manuscript ? ! " || " I don't understand why you're making such an ugly scene when we'll all be colleagues in the same branch . " " If you don't apologize today , don't expect me to take you abroad . Think about it yourself . " [ ] " Screw that ! " My eyes turned red with rage as I shouted and ran away . ]] Behind me came Kai's cold warning : " Daisy , if you have the guts , don't come crawling back to me ! " e ! " In the past , after every fight , I was always the first to give in , personally cooking for him , coaxing him to eat , then spending an intimate night together . By the next day , we'd be back to normal . ] ] But now , that would never happen again in this lifetime . [ ] My best friend Kitty drove to pick me up for the airport . ] Seeing me clutching my mother's ruined manuscript in distress , she was ready to ju I quickly pulled her back into the car , choking up : " Don't go .

It breaks my heart . " 10 Chapter 4 Kai obviously hesitated for a moment . I don't know what she said , but he soon pulled her into his arms and smoothly fell onto the hotel bed . Jordan's face flushed as she smugly raised her eyebrows at the camera , silently mouthing : " Bye - bye . Don't come back from Switzerland . " [ ] I immediately hung up and threw the phone heavily onto the car seat . יך Even though I'd decided to give up , seeing this scene still made my heart ache uncontrollably . ] Kitty cursed him the entire ride . [ ] Just before boarding . I opened my laptop to confirm once more that my transfer destination was indeed Switzerland .

" After hugging Kitty goodbye , I boarded the flight to Switzerland . Watching the buildings on the ground grow smaller , I suddenly felt an unprecedented sense of liberation . Before turning off my phone , I answered Kai's final call . ] " Daisy , stop being angry , okay ? Double - check your transfer destination - don't fill it out wrong .
