Hold On Mr.! Your Sweetheart is a Real Queen-Chapter 721: Hug him

Daisy Ginger looked at the man’s eyes glowing with gentle light in the darkness.

Lowering her head, she kissed his thin lips and softly asked, "What did he do to you?"

She vaguely recalled Ryan Smith telling her once that he had betrayed Edward Stephens, but since she wasn’t familiar with him, she didn’t delve into it.

Thinking back now, she had a vague feeling that there must have been a significant issue between them back then.

In front of Edward Stephens, Ryan Smith always seemed to carry a sense of guilt.

"When you were kidnapped by my brother, it was Ryan who drugged me." Edward sighed lightly, "Otherwise, I wouldn’t have been delayed for so many days before arriving..."

Daisy was slightly startled, a hint of shock appearing in her dark eyes.

She hadn’t expected that so much had happened during a kidnapping so long ago.

"Back then, he lost contact for several months, and I didn’t have any sense to be cautious. That was my fault too." Edward sighed helplessly, gently stroking Daisy’s long hair.

Strangely, the unbelievable events of the past now seemed to stir no emotions when mentioned.

He truly had let go, no longer concerned with the past betrayals and misunderstandings.

"What happened to Ryan Smith?"

The image of Ryan’s flippant handsome face appeared before Daisy, a man who always masked his true feelings with a playful smile. Thinking about it now, she realized she knew nothing about him.

"He was caught and abused for several months by my brother." Edward frowned slightly, finding the memory of this too unbearable.

Robert Stephens almost...

Harmed everyone dear to him or who cared about him.

His so-called "love" was to leave him all alone.

Daisy was silent for a moment before reluctantly saying, "Thinking about it this way, your brother showed some mercy to me, didn’t he?"

Edward said, "That was merely because I compromised with him."

Four years later, because he was no longer obedient, he targeted Daisy.

"In his eyes, everyone’s life was worthless in this world." Edward gently held her and said in a low voice, "It’s not like that..."

Every person’s life is priceless; once gone, it can never come back...

He sent him to prison, hoping he wouldn’t stain his hands with more blood.

Though he still deeply respected his brother, that respect had long turned to hatred due to his madness.

He couldn’t forgive what he did to Ryan, nor how he almost killed Daisy.

They were the ones he loved the most.

...

In the darkness, the man’s breathing quieted.

Daisy couldn’t see his expression, but as Edward spoke, she could feel the heaviness in his aura.

He was saddened.

For the friends who were hurt because of him.

Though everyone understood it wasn’t his fault.

Even Ryan, who was abused, never hated him for it.

Daisy felt a sharp pang and wished she could gather him into a small bundle and hug him. This guy, clearly uninterested in power, was forced by his own brother to fight for it.

In the process, he was also forced to hurt many people.

She stroked his hair and gently said, "Let’s not talk about it anymore; let’s just sleep." Once everything was over, they would leave this place and never return.

Edward also kissed her, and the two of them held each other and closed their eyes.
