My Wife is an Aloof Beauty

Chapter 825 Love Potion (Part One)

"Don't worry. Just take it from me." Cynthia said with a kindly smile. She treated Daisy like her own daughter, so if the couple ever had a quarrel, she would not take sides with either of them. They had to work it out themselves. In a battle between siblings, you don't favor one over the other. That didn't mean she couldn't give pointers.

"Are you sure that it's the right thing to encourage your daughter-in-law to act like this?" Suddenly, Jonathan's voice came from behind them. They both turned and saw him standing not far away, fixing them with a stern look. Sometimes he felt that he just couldn't take Cynthia too seriously. She was the love of his life, but he now became increasingly and helplessly certain that this woman took pleasure in stirring up trouble.

"If you have a problem with that, you can teach your son to fight back. I'm extremely OK with that, " Cynthia replied, giving him a sly smile and looking him in the eye provocatively. She had no fear of this ruthless man who turned up out of nowhere. In fact, he had learned to adopt a relatively mild manner after all this time, but only in front of his family. To everyone else, he was still the high and mighty Jonathan.

"No offence, but unlike you two, I've got more important things to attend to, " Jonathan said coldly. He glanced at both of them before directing a meaningful look at Cynthia. Then a sneer of evil passed fleetingly across his face. How bold she was to challenge him, he thought to himself. Fine, she would have to bear the consequences soon enough. He knew just how to punish her.

"I think he's mad at us, " Daisy whispered. Being caught red-handed when they were plotting against his son was embarrassing enough for Daisy. And now she grew absolutely ashamed of herself, taking his sarcastic words to heart. She was afraid that he might think of her as a scheming woman. Feeling quite uneasy, she decided to talk to Cynthia about the situation hastily once Jonathan was out of earshot.

"He would not get angry that easily. But it seems that I am doomed no matter what, " responded Cynthia. After Jonathan lef

im. It's his right anyway. And of course, if he says no we can't force him." It was true that Daisy could not forgive Leo for what he had done to Grace and her, but since she was a reasonable person, she would not force other members of her family to cut all ties with him, either. After all, she thought it inappropriate to make others follow her lead.

"Are you angry with me for having my finger in the pie?" Edward had been worried, and you could see it on his face. There was a coldness in her eyes that seemed to be pushing him away. It was the same kind of chilliness she displayed when they first met.

"Not at all. You're overthinking it. I'm not a domineering person. Justin can make his own decision, if Leo really wants to see him. What's more, though it pains me to accept it, I am an Ouyang, and there is nothing I can do to change that. I really want Leo gone and out of my life, but I won't prevent you or Justin from contacting him. I'm not going to lose myself to hatred. That would drive me nuts, "

Explained Daisy, closing her eyes to calm herself when she was done. She was getting a tension headache, and felt herself getting tired. This had been troubling her day and night. To be honest, she knew that she had to let go and forgive Leo some day, but she just couldn't do it now. All she could do was to let time do its work, hoping that they might bury the hatchet as time passed.
