<h4>Chapter 117: Chapter 117: Not Sent by Ethan Pond</h4>


    The next day, just after getting off work, Daisy Ginger received a string of tinum bracelets and a pair of diamond earrings.


    Edward Stephens raised his chin at her, "Put them on and see."


    He looked quite proud.


    Daisy nced at him, then at the two sets of jewelry in her hand, inwardly thinking this guy must be addicted to giving gifts.


    Daisy put the items away, "No, thanks."


    Edward nced at her, directly took the earrings from her hand, and raised his chin at her, "Bring your face closer."


    Daisy couldn’t help butugh, "Edward Stephens, do you have to be so childish?"


    The man ignored her, just reached out, touched her earlobe, and put one earring on her right ear.


    Then he personally put the other one on her opposite ear.


    After doing all this, he seemed satisfied, ced his hands on the steering wheel, looked ahead, and lightly asked, "Where do you want to eat?"


    Daisy touched her ears and looked in the mirror. The earrings Edward bought were pink diamonds, reflecting subtly between her strands of hair.


    Edward sounded somewhat smug, "Aren’t they prettier than the ones Ethan Pond gave you?"


    Daisy finallyughed, "They weren’t from Ethan Pond."


    Childish or what, is he onlyparing himself to Ethan when he loses a fight?


    "Oh." Hearing that they weren’t from Ethan, Edward instantly lost interest, but he still emphasized, "Mine are prettier."


    Daisy humored him, "Yes, yes, yes."


    Edward shot her a sideways nce, seeing her teasing smile, flicked her on the forehead, "Anything in particr you want to eat?"


    Daisy looked down at her phone to search, "There’s a new Northwestern restaurant recently opened in Yintai, how about trying it out?"


    Edward agreed, and, following the GPS, drove to Yintai City.


    Just before getting off work, Yintai City was packed with people, making a striking scene with handsome men and beautiful women in the crowd. Daisy ignored the nces around and pulled Edward’s hand towards the elevator.


    Daisy quickly found the new restaurant, but it was too crowded. She went inside to ask and learned there was almost a half-hour wait. Just as she was considering giving up, she heard Ian Linton’s voice from behind, "Director Ginger, are you here to eat as well?"


    Daisy turned around to see three people standing behind, not just Ian Linton, but Abigail Perry and Emily Ginger were also there.


    Emily Ginger seemed to have just been discharged from the hospital, looking a bit pale despite wearing a bright-colored dress. She stood slightly bowed next to Abigail Perry. Hearing Ian Linton’s voice, she slowly raised her head and looked at Daisy.


    Her gaze was empty, her eyes appeared much duller than before, and she seemed a bit out of it,cking vitality. Daisy couldn’t help but give her a few more nces, thinking she looked a bit odd.


    But after all, they weren’t familiar, not particrly close, so Daisy quickly withdrew her gaze, saying to Ian Linton, "Yes, I came here with Edward to eat, but it’s full, so I nned to choose another ce."


    Ian Linton said, "Today Emily was discharged, I booked a private room for eight. If Director Ginger and Young Master Stevens don’t mind, why not join us?"


    Daisy turned her head to look at Edward standing behind her. Edward appeared indifferent, lifting one hand to pinch her earlobe casually, saying, "I don’t mind."


    He seemed truly satisfied with the pair of earrings he chose, and Daisy’s ears tingled from his pinching. She pped his paw away, then looked up at Ian Linton and said, "Let’s eat together then, Ian."
