"Not for me. Women are all unreasonable creatures. Of course, my sister is an exception." Brian reached out his index finger and shook it to show his disapproval. He was not a nut. He wouldn't be that bored as to have to find a woman to torture himself.
"Let's go! you're talking too much!" They were separated for too long, and inevitably they both had changed much since they parted. But one thing always remained the same, their feelings for each other which they treasured in their hearts would never change. These were the true emotions they had developed in their childhood.
"Okay, spit it out! If I know the answer, I'll tell you all the things I know. If not, you'll have to suffer," he teased. As soon as they walked out of the ward, Brian sat down on the sofa in the small living room, looking utterly carefree.
"Is it true about what you said back there? That Ouyang Foreign Trade is the asset left by my grandfather?" Daisy actually knew nothing about her mother's family background. It wasn't because she didn't remember anything, it was because her mother had never mentioned it to her. So she was very curious when Brian brought up the topic about her grandfather.
"Yes, probably everyone in the upper class knows about it. It's old news, so maybe it looks like more rumor than truth. But if you really want to know the truth, it's not difficult, "
Brian sneered in self-mockery. In fact, he had already lost his faith in his so-called family. He couldn't feel warm with his family anymore, on the contrary, it pushed him to desperation, he felt even colder in his heart. He viewed them with disdain. In his family's eyes, interests were the first priority. They never considered how other member in this family felt about. Otherwise, they wouldn't have driven Daisy away from the family.
And now it turned out that Daisy's mother was the reason why they could afford such a luxurious life. But they seemed to have ignored this fact. He wondered how they could sleep at night, knowing that their noble life was inherited from Daisy's heritage. It was understandable if Mary and her mother didn't know about this. But for his father who was supposed to know everything, how could he not have the slightest feeling of guilt about this? Moreover, he had disowned his only biological daughter. How could he really be so ruthless? Or did he really take the hypocritical Mary as his biological daughter?
"Well, are there any relatives of my mother still living?" Daisy felt a little more cheerful as she really wanted to know more about her mother. Only with more information could she find out the real origin of "A Beauty's Tears of Blood." And then she would not feel that she was a rootless person in the world.
"Haven't found one yet. The report only mentioned that the CEO of Cheng Financial Group married off his daughter, who was the apple of his eye, and the dowry was the whole property of the company. This was quite a sensation at that time. You can search for it online. There are a lot of articles about it."
In fact, Brian only investigated it out of a sudden curiosity. He was surprised that there were so many stories he didn't know. Truth be told, he was dumbstruck when he found out the news. He wondered why his father changed the name of the company and took it as his own.
