Chapter 570: I Will Pull The Trigger (part one)

"Daisy, we can talk this through. Let's put down the gun, okay? This is getting really dangerous." After all, Leo was a seasoned man, so he immediately reacted to this situation. He looked at Daisy with concern. His uncontrollable anger against Yakira turned into soothing tenderness for Daisy, but Daisy did not budge at all.

"Ha! Dangerous? So Mr. Ouyang does know what danger means in this world. Then how come it eluded you when you were having an affair before? How come you didn't see the danger when your acts were leading to my mother's death?"

Daisy instantly shifted her target to Leo. Although he wasn't the one who killed her mother, he was undeniably responsible. If he had ignored Yakira, no one could have had the chance to set him up. If he had been firm, then how could she have been able to exploit his weakness? So in the end, he was the person who needed to answer for his crime.

"I... So you know about it as well. Alright, I've never hoped to somehow exonerate myself. If you still consider my petty life worthy of anything, then kill me and allow me to use my own life to atone for the sin!" Leo closed his eyes, gravely saddened. He was wondering earlier why Daisy suddenly came over. It turned out she was here for revenge. If that was the case, then he had nothing to complain. After all, he owed her that much.

"Nonsense. Every injustice has its own perpetrator. Why would I take your life? Yakira, how long are you going to keep hiding? Do you think you can get out of this?" Right now, Daisy was acting extremely cavalier. She didn't even care to scoff at Leo's suggestion. Instead, she simply chided him unemotionally.

Daisy, calm down. I think we should sit down and talk about this." Brian was shielding Yakira with his back. He couldn't understand what everyone was talking about, or what was so serious that her parents had to pay with their lives. He was protecting Yakira from Daisy not because he loved and respected Yakira, but because he didn't want his dear sister to make such a mistake. Although he was not sure what mistake his mother did thatcould anger Daisy enough for her to commit murder. Given the circumstance, he still tried to make sure that no one got hurt.

Step away, Brian. Or are you going to lecture me as well? Do you want to protect that evil woman over me? And do you really think she's worthy of your protection?" Daisy squinted her eyes and stared at him with provocation. If he had to stand in front of that woman, then Daisy was fine to let a brother like this perish. Even though she might be a little hurt, it wouldn't be as painful as the agony she was enduring now.

"No, I just don't want you to do something that you'll regret later. So, excuse me, even if you have to treat me as a stranger, I will not step away no matter what happens today." Brian's eyes turned red. His bright and handsome face was occupied by the look of anguish. As a son, no matter how awful the parent was, he had to do his duty as a child. As a brother, no matter how much he loved Daisy, he had to make the decision and take up the responsibility like a man.

Yeah? It seems like you've made your choice. Then don't blame me for being blunt." As she spoke, Daisy quickly turned to her side and bent down, her high-knotted hair drafted a pretty curve. She easily slid past Brian from under his arm. Her all movements were clean, smooth, and cool as ever. It seemed that Daisy's tough words couldn't conceal her actual concern for Brian. She didn't intend to hurt him at all.

Ah! Daisy, what are you doing? Don't come close." If it were Yakira of the past, she would never grovel like this in front of Daisy. But in the face of a horrible gun, her usual imperiousness dissipated without a trace.

"Tsk! Yakira, you do feel afraid! I thought your heart was made of steel. It turns out you're still just flesh and blood! Then can you feel my mother's terror while she was facing her death? Do you know how helpless she was at that moment? No, you can't empathize, because you never have a heart. Otherwise how could you be so ruthless that you couldn't even spare a pregnant woman?"

The muzzle of the gun was stuck right in the middle of Yakira's forehead. Daisy looked down at her with cold disdain. This woman unflinchingly destroyed her mother's young life. This woman also brutalised the other life that never had the chance to face this world. And now she lived in a luxurious mansion with her conscience buried. She robbed everything that was supposed to be Daisy's, and then live her happy life in fine clothes and was served delicacies every day.

No, I didn't do that. Brian help me. Yakira stepped back in panic, but Daisy closely followed and kept the pressure up step by step. She was not giving Yakira any chance for escape.

You didn't do it? You really didn't? Daisy abruptly burst into laughter which seemed so imposing yet so tragic. One couldn't help but feel heartbroken at the scene.
