Chapter 0395
"You crossed a major line, Daisy," I said through my teeth. "What the fuck were you thinking??"
Her eyes narrowed and I saw a flicker of fear in her gaze.
"I have no idea what you're talking about, Gavin..." she denied, making me scoff.
Did she really think I wouldn't find out about her games? Did she think I was stupid?
"Don't play, stupid," I hissed. "You broke into my hotel suite... You invaded my space when I wasn't there. Why?"
She pressed her lips in a thin line, like she was holding onto some type of secret and it only infuriated me more.
"Answer my Goddamn question," I said in a low and threatening tone.
Before she could open her mouth to speak, I heard footsteps behind me. They sounded hurried, like they were running.
"Dad!" I heard Irene shouting as she rushed towards me.
"Answer me!" I demanded again, ignoring the fact that my daughter was rushing towards me. My eyes remained fixed on Daisy's, who glanced behind me and then directly at me.
"I did it because she doesn't deserve you, Gavin. I've always been here for you. I was there when my sister died, leaving you a single father. I was there when you got custody of Matthew. I had always been there. Your mother already gave me her blessing. Why
can't you see that I'm the one you are meant to be with?"
"You don't get to tell me who I'm supposed to be with," I said through my teeth. "You and my mother can stop meddling in my romantic affairs because it is not happening."
That's when I felt her presence behind me; Judy stood beside Irene and they were both watching me with worried eyes, wondering what it was I was going to do.
"I went to dinner with you out of pity the other night; there was nothing more to it. You invaded my space and crossed a serious line."
"So, it's true then?" Judy's soft voice echoed behind me; I could hear the pain in her voice and it was fucking killing me. "It was all a lie. You weren't there with Gavin?"
Daisy's eyes flickered to Judy, malice in her gaze that made me punch a wall close to her face. Her eyes went back to me, her eyes wide when she realized there was a whole in the wall inches from her face.
"Don't fucking look at her..." I said through my teeth. "Eyes on me."
"Aunt Daisy, why would you do something like that?" Irene asked.noveldrama
Daisy kept her eyes on me, but she responded to Irene.
"Because it was supposed to be me. I was supposed to be the one warming your father's bed, but instead he found himself a pretty little whore."
I grabbed her throat without another word, blocking off her air waves and making it impossible for her to speak anymore. Her eyes bugged out of her face as she struggled to breathe, swatting at my hands, begging me with her eyes to loosen my grip but I was
pushed past the edge of caring whether she lived or died.
"Dad, you're going ot kill her!" Irene warned. "Loosen your grip!"

Daisy's face started to turn red as she tapped on the wall, begging for me to stop. The rhythm of her. tapping continued, her hands trembling as the life started to drain from her pathetic little face
“Ethan...” I heard Judy whispering behind me.
"What?" Irene asked.
"She's spelling out Ethan's name
bet
using Morse code," Judy said, pointing to Daisy's hands which continued to tap the wall. I realized that Judy was right; I was also trained in Morse code, and she was
tapping out Ethan's name using the
wall.
I loosened my grip so she could breathe. She took a deep breath, coughing as the
air filled her lungs. Her eyes watered and she tried to wipe them.
"Guess you're not as dumb as I thought," she croaked, rubbing her sore and red neckline.
"What about Ethan?" Judy demanded. "What does he have to do with anything?" Daisy narrowed her eyes.
"He has everything to do with this," she said, slyly. "Who do you think put me up to this?"
"What?" Judy asked, her voice coming out hollow and unfamiliar.
I stepped away from Daisy, suddenly the weight of the situation crashing down around me.
"What the fuck are you talking about?" I demanded.
Daisy took a minute to recover herself before she replied.
"Your girlfriend's ex mate is here and wants you out of the way. So, we came up
with this plan together. Clever, aren't we?"
