Chapter 8
My goodness. I was so dumbstruck because I never thought she was this consistent in both the past and the present. I’d already vied for Logan’s attention, so this scene would never occur, but my efforts were in vain.
I sighed inwardly. I don’t know what you’re aiming for, Daisy. All you did was being a burden back there, so how could you tell a lie like this in front of me?
In the past, I acted like a fool and allowed myself to be treated as one. I hadn’t dared to let the truth be known and only stood thinking what Daisy said was a bit strange.
Daisy must have said these absurd lies because she knew I would only stand quietly on the side. However, you’re making a big mistake if you expect me to just grin and bear it like a good friend.
My goal from the beginning was to make sure Daisy wouldn’t get invited in return for …’
Once again, I was dumbfounded. Daisy’s words weren’t amusing anymore. As a matter of fact, they annoyed me. Although she’s generous, it seemed like she’s abusing her authority as a noble.
Furthermore, what right does she have to offer horses and rooms? One might think Daisy was the next of kin of House Nelson.
Have you forgotten I’m still here? It was a blatant act of disrespect towards me, the real kin.
In the old days, I would have thought that Daisy cared about his health and safety, but not anymore. Knowing Daisy’s true nature, every word she said was very annoying.
But I couldn’t express my displeasure, not when the Duke was in front of me. I followed along and lent Daisy a hand even though I didn’t want to and said as gently as I could.
“Yes, I’ll talk to my grandmother and arrange a horse. The head of this castle is my grandmother, so I have to get permission from her first.”
Logan turned his head and looked at me. His face seemed to relax, and he was opening his mouth as if he was hesitating whether to accept or not.
Was he hesitating because he refused too many times? However, he finally nodded after a while.
“Well then, excuse us for a moment.”
I thought we’d talked to the patient for too long, so I dragged Daisy out of the room.
As soon as we left the room, Daisy suddenly pulled me by the wrist. The hand that had grabbed my wrist was obviously trembling.
Oh, now you’re showing me what you truly are.
“Sienna, I need to talk to you for a minute.”
“Okay.”
I answered coldly with my head held high. Do you think I’d be scared if you set your tone like that?
I came back after suffering until I was thirty, and this one in front of me was merely an 18-year-old noble girl who had never suffered before.
There’s no way I’m going to be scared of you. I took the lead with proud steps.
Where we headed off to was my room. Immediately after I closed the door, Daisy pressed me for an answer.
“What’s wrong with you?”
The girl who smiled like an angel and brought life wherever she went was now hardening her face and glaring at me. With her face like that, even if she spoke softly, she looked hardly agreeable. If it were me of the past who knew nothing, I would have been intimidated.
But now, I was by no means scared of her. It was why I went against Daisy’s nerves and dared to embarrassed her earlier. I retorted back with my arms crossed.
“What do you mean ‘what’s wrong’?”

“Didn’t you humiliate me in front of that guy? I’m so embarrassed. You didn’t like it so much when I said I saved him?”
Daisy stared hard at me as if she couldn’t believe that the once timid and naive girl had negated her words and risen in opposition.
“Yes.” I said, challenging her stare. I held my ground and refused to back down.
“What?”
