Chapter 325 The Truth
The night was still.
However, the light in Daniel's villa was still on. Daniel was holding a glass of wine with profound eyes starring outside. No one knew what he was thinking about.
"Master. Why are you still awake? Do you need me to prepare some food for you?"
A middle-aged woman walked towards Daniel and asked with respect. She was the maid in the Family and had worked several decades for them. People in Daniel's Family called her Betty and she watched Daniel and his sister grow up. Daniel got his mind back and put down his glass. He smiled and answered, "Don't worry about me. Have a good rest."
To Daniel, Betty was not his servant but a respective elder. That was why he changed his commanding tone and answered in a gentle way.
A worried expression showed up on Betty's face. She sighed and said in all sincerity, "Master. It was unhealthy to stay up late. You're too young to feel its negative effects, but when you come to my age, your body will be unable to stand the fatigue." Daniel smiled, "I know. I will be careful next time. Well, you're always the last person to rest. Have you found that Daisy came home very late recently?"
Betty replied without a second thought and answered, "Yes, master. I also feel it's strange. Miss. Daisy returns home until midnight recently. I have asked her several times but she's unwilling to tell me the truth. Master, do you think she's in love?" A flicker of peculiarity passed over Daniel's eyes. But he pretended to be calm and replied with a smile, "Don't worry about her. Just go to rest. I know what to do about Daisy."
Betty finally relaxed. She treated Daniel and his sister Daisy as her own children instead of masters.
Betty worried a lot about Daisy's unusual behaviors. However, considering Daniel also noticed it, she wouldn't say anything anymore.
After working for a long time in a rich and powerful family, Betty knew well about what she should worry about and what she shouldn't take part in. Besides, Daniel was always reliable in handling things. Then Betty left the room.
Seeing Betty finally leave, Daniel wrinkled, as he had a bad feeling. He always believed in his own instinct. Besides, it made him more worried because it was related to Daisy.
Daniel thought deeply for a moment. He picked up his phone, dialing a number and asked in a low voice, "Come to me. Now."
A man in black suit showed up within 3 minutes after Daniel put down his phone. The man in black suit was reserved and serious. However, he looked at Daniel in a devout way. No one would doubt his loyalty to Daniel. Daniel picked up his glass and said, "Harry, how about your investigation?"
Harry silenced for a moment and answered, "My subordinates are still collecting data about that man. But according to our analysis of the existing data, he's not a nobody."
Daniel wrinkled again. He put down his glass at mouth and asked, "What do you mean?"
Harry answered immediately, "I have found that his name is Six-ears, a well-known guy in gangster. Six years ago, he was put into jail and he was just released on the day when he rescued Miss. Daisy."
Daniel nodded subconsciously. He suddenly thought about something and continued to ask, "Do you have any other information about him?"
Harry lowered his head, "Sorry, Mr. Daniel. I have only found this piece of information about him because he did things in a cautious and mysterious way. I am collecting his other information now, but it is very limited."
He continued, "When Six-ears was released from jail, one of his subordinates wanted to meet you, but you refused him."
Seeing Harry's hesitation, Daniel's eyes darkened, "Idiot! If he was a normal street rowdy, how dare they cause Daisy trouble?"
Everyone knew it was stupid to cause troubles to Daniel's Family.
Harry stopped talking. He also realized his mistake. In this city, no one dared cause trouble for Daisy, as Daniel had hundreds of ways to punish such a person.
Daniel put down his glass and picked up a cigar. Harry immediately lowered his body and lit it for him. Daniel continued, "Besides, when Daisy was kidnapped, these people knew exactly about the time and location. That's not a thing that normal street rowdies can do." Harry understood what Daniel meant immediately. He asked tentatively, "Do you mean that someone is offering them advice?"
"And also support them. If it were not that man, they would never dare to do such a thing. Hence, I'm sure there must be a secret behind this thing. I believe my own feeling."
Daniel said firmly. One of his secrets to success was to believe in his own judgment.
Harry took a deep breath and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Daniel. I ignore this issue and will start to investigate it now. I will do anything to find out who wants to frame up Miss. Daisy."
Daniel shook his hands and said, "Never mind. You can have a rest now. You must be tired after investigating Six-ears' information these days."
Harry wrinkled and didn't say anything. He knew once Daniel made up his mind, no one could change it. What he needed to do was to obey.
Harry left after bowing to Daniel. He was always vigorous and resolute.
Daniel puffed. His eyes became curious. He murmured, "Six-ears. I'm getting more and more interested with you. You can play tricks flagrantly. Do you think I am an idiot or do you have other principal?"
Later, Daniel's eyes turned sharp, "No matter what your intentions are, this is not a smart move. No one can threat me with Daisy, and she's my bottom line. Since you have touched it, I will never let you off."
