Daisy Cox was obviously already scared, and she was even trembling, but she held back her fear and protected Xyla Quest.
Such friendship couldn’t be bought with money.
However, Daisy shrugged nonchalantly. “It’s not a big deal… I have said it before, you rescued Tyler, and that means rescuing me… I’m willing to do anything for you.”
Looking at how light-hearted Daisy seemed, Xyla felt even more touched.
Xyla immediately clutched Daisy’s hand again. “Anyway, thank you, I owe you my life… I will never forget how you saved me today. I will remember it for as long as I live, Daisy. In the future, as long as you need my help, I’ll do whatever I can.”
Daisy’s smile widened. “Xyla, you are too serious. I don’t need you to do anything extreme for me. Alright… We’ll go back first. I’ll ask you to go shopping with me tomorrow. Tyler and I will stay in Atlantis for a few days this time.”
“Okay…” Xyla instantly agreed.
After seeing Daisy off, Xyla got into an extended black Rolls Royce parked by the road with the two brothers from the Batton family and Zack Cassidy.
Due to the episode just now, everyone was very depressed.
Hence, everyone didn’t have much to say in the car.
“Zack… Go to the municipal hospital,” Stanley Batton said as he pinched his forehead tiredly.
He needed to go to the hospital and personally reassure the injured.
After all, these people got hurt on his turf.
Zack immediately nodded respectfully. “Yes!”
After that, he quickly drove to the municipal hospital.
After a short distance, Zack’s phone rang.
Seeing that it was a familiar bodyguard’s phone number, Zack immediately answered it on the loudspeaker.
“It looks like they were trying to kill everyone on the deck.” Josh finally asked the question that had been bothering him for a long time.
“The only way to know exactly who they are after is to find the mastermind behind this. No matter who they are after, I will not let them go for causing trouble on my turf,” Stanley said coldly.
Xyla didn’t speak. Instead, she looked out the window, deep in thoughts.
***
After going to the hospital to comfort the injured, Xyla returned home with Stanley.
By then, it was already three in the morning.
After entering the house, they showered and lay in bed, but both couldn’t fall asleep…
Xyla clung onto Stanley like an octopus. “Honey… I suspect… The ‘master’ was the one behind all of this.”
