Chapter 1644
Lara stared at her. This was the first time she didn’t see any fear in someone’s eyes after being threatened with
disfigurement.
She leaned closer to her and grabbed her hair. “Do you really think I won’t do it?”
Daisie hissed in pain and smiled weakly. “As long as you untie me, I assure you that I won’t get angry no matter
what you do to me.”
Lara turned around to look at the people behind her. The man received her signal and pulled a knife out to cut the
rope.
However, at the moment the rope dropped to the ground, Daisie grabbed the man’s wrist and snatched the knife
out of his hand.
After that, she scrambled up from the ground and pounced at Lara. She put the knife on Lara’s neck and snarled,

The group of men did not dare to take a single step forward.
Lara froze. The chilly sensation that she felt from her neck caused her face to turn pale with fright. “H-How dare
you attack me!? I’m telling you. If I die, you won’t get out of here alive either!”
Lara had underestimated Daisie.
She had been under the impression Daisie was a weak little rabbit who did not dare to fight back. She did not
expect that she would have the guts to hold her at knifepoint.
“Really? Are you sure you’re not the one who won’t be able to get out of here alive if you kill me?” Daisie said as
she applied more force on the knife. The blade sank shallowly into her neck, and blood began to seep out of the
wound. Lara was startled. “What do you want? If you let me go now, I’ll forgive you for everything you did today!”
“Do you think I’m stupid?” Daisie chuckled. “If I let you go now, I’m sure you’ll kill me right away.”
Cold beads of sweat were oozing from Lara’s forehead. She did not dare to fight back since there was a knife on
her neck, and she couldn’t do anything but follow Daisie as she forced her to take a few steps backward. When
Daisie saw those men move toward them, she exerted a little strength onto the knife and asked, “Do you guys want
me to kill her?”
Lara’s voice was shaking because of her fear as she shouted, “Can’t you idiots see that she’s holding a knife? Don’t
come any closer!” She just wanted to keep herself alive. After she got out, she would definitely make Daisie pay the
price.
Suddenly, Nollace’s voice rang out from the door outside. “Secure the perimeter. Don’t let any of them run away.”
Daisie was stunned. “Nollace.” Seeing that she was distracted, Lara hastily snatched the knife from her hand and
swung it at her.
Even though Daisie took a few steps back, the tip of the knife still cut through the corner of her eyes. At that
moment, Nollace broke in and delivered a kick at Lara, sending her ramming toward the wall and falling to the

from the wound at the corner of her eyes. “Daisie…” He turned his head around to look at Lara, his gaze cold and
filled with rage. “How dare you hurt her.”
He took a step forward and kicked her so hard that Lara’s body slumped and fell hard to the ground. “Stop it!” Ken
came forward and stopped Nollace. “I promise I’ll give you guys a reasonable explanation.” “A reasonable
explanation?” As if he couldn’t contain himself anymore, Nollace grabbed him by the collar of his shirt, and his eyes
turned bloodshot. “Ken, if anything happens to Daisie, do you think you guys can bear the consequences?” “Young
Mr. Knowles!” Lara scrambled up from the ground and said through gritted teeth,” How dare you go against the
Reeses because of this girl? My father will hear about the things you did to me today!” Ken’s face sank as he
growled, “Lara!” “He beat me, and you’re standing on their side?” Even though Lara was in a mess right now, she
refused to lower her head and let out a gruesome grin. “They can’t bear the consequences if my father decides to
punish them!” Nollace scooped Daisie up from the ground and looked at Lara coldly. He let out a smirk and said,
“Really? Then go back and tell your father. Tell him to get himself ready as your family’s good days have come to
an end.”
Carrying Daisie in his arm, he left without turning his head around. Ken clenched his fists tightly. It had taken him a
lot of effort to get the Reeses’ support, yet he did not expect everything to be destroyed by Lara.
