True Love Deserves a Second Chance

A single sentence left Aaron stunned.

Daisy also felt a wave of panic and immediately explained, "I was just worried that you were hurt by emotions and couldn't eat."

Alexander sneered, "Is that really the case?"

"It really is, Alexander, please believe me."

Aaron also immediately said, "Ms. Daisy Cross cares too much about you. She said you saved her when she was a child, so she will be good to you for the rest of her life. I did this so you could get over your emotional troubles and return to this family. Before Ms. Sinclair, you and Ms. Daisy Cross had such a good relationship."

Alexander looked at him coldly, "Are you blaming Sophia?"

"No, I wouldn't dare. I'm just telling the truth, Mr. Alexander Cross. You can punish me however you want. I did all this for the good of this family. Even if you take it out on me, I am willing."

Hearing this, Alexander smiled slightly, "You're saying this for me to hear. If I punish you, it means I'm being unreasonable, right?"

"No, how could I say that about you?"

"Aaron, you've watched me grow up. Don't you know my temper? I never let anyone who dares to touch my people get away with it.

Since you want to take the blame for Daisy, don't blame me for being rude.

Isn't your son working at the Cross Group? I heard he's already a logistics supervisor. Starting tomorrow, he won't be working there anymore.

You also need to leave this house. The Cross Family's insurance for your family will be revoked.

From now on, whether your family lives or dies has nothing to do with us."

These words scared Aaron, and he immediately cried and begged for mercy, "Mr. Alexander Cross, please have mercy. My family relies on me to live. If you fire both me and Kurt, how will we survive?"

Alexander's face showed no sympathy, "How you survive is none of my business. Who told you to provoke me?"

Seeing that he had no intention of changing his mind, Aaron immediately kowtowed and begged Gilbert.

"Mr. Gilbert Cross, I've been with the Cross Family for decades. I raised Mr. Alexander Cross and Ms. Daisy Cross. Please give my family a way out. I can accept punishment, just don't fire us."

His family of three all worked for the Cross Family, and the benefits were very good.

Every year at the end of the year, the Cross Family would give him a generous bonus in recognition of his years of service.

Such treatment, he couldn't find anywhere else.

He couldn't give it up.

Gilbert frowned slightly and looked at Alexander, "What Aaron did was indeed wrong and should be punished, but considering his years of service, let him accept the family punishment. As for the dismissal, let's see how he performs in the future. What do you think?"

Alexander laughed roguishly, "I'm only considering his years of service to you, so I don't want him to accept the family punishment. The family punishment would take half his life."

"That's still better than firing them. Their family has worked hard here, and Aaron has been with me for so many years. Even if there's no kinship, there's still affection. Don't forget, it was him who helped find your sister Daisy."

Alexander smirked, "He shouldn't have crossed my line. I don't even dare to touch a hair on Sophia, and he wants to ruin her.

I won't relent on this matter. If you force me to forgive Aaron, it's not impossible, but then I have no reason to come back to this house."

Hearing Alexander say this, Aaron immediately pleaded, "Mr. Alexander Cross, when you lost Ms. Daisy Cross, you were always blaming yourself. It was me who searched everywhere and finally found Ms. Daisy Cross.

Even if you don't consider my hard work, you should consider your beloved sister Daisy and not fire me.

I promise I won't dare to do it again and will follow your arrangements."

Alexander walked to his side, slowly bent down, and looked at him coldly, "There's one way to keep me from firing you."

"What way?"

"Tell me the truth, whose idea was this?"

Aaron's newly risen hope was extinguished again, and he lowered his head, "It was my idea, it has nothing to do with Ms. Daisy Cross."

Alexander chuckled, "Did I say it had anything to do with her? You're confessing without being pressed."

"No, it really has nothing to do with her, please believe me."noveldrama

"Since you're so protective of her, then use your family's jobs as a stake."

After saying this, Alexander looked at his assistant behind him and said, "Go tell the HR department to terminate the three of them."

Seeing he was serious, Daisy immediately ran over crying, grabbed his arm, and pleaded, "Alexander, don't fire Aaron. He has taken care of me since I was a child. He knows my condition well. If he leaves, no one can save me when I get sick."

"Don't worry, I won't let you die. I'll find you a psychologist to take care of you, and I'll find a dedicated servant to take care of Grandpa. This house won't fall apart without him, will it?"

Seeing Alexander's firm attitude, Gilbert didn't dare to intervene further.

He just waved at Aaron and said, "Who told you to provoke Alexander without knowing your place? Even I don't dare to offend him. You should leave for now and wait until he calms down."

Aaron left the living room with Kurt.

Alexander glanced at Daisy and said coldly, "Don't think about using your money to help them. From today on, I'll control your allowance. Any excess, you'll have to cover yourself."

Hearing this, Daisy obediently nodded, "Okay, I'll listen to you. Just don't be angry, okay?"

After saying this, she tried to grab Alexander's arm but was shrugged off by him.

Just a heads up: is the only place to read the complete version of this book for free. Don't miss out on the next chapter-visit us now and continue your journey!

"Stay away from me from now on."

After saying this, Alexander went straight upstairs.

Daisy, having been scolded, sat beside Gilbert with a tearful face.

She leaned on his shoulder and sobbed softly, "Grandpa, Alexander seems to like me less and less. What should I do?"

Gilbert patted her back lovingly, "Alright, don't cry. He's just angry. Don't provoke him again. Sophia is his weakness. Try to get along with her, and Alexander will forgive you."

Daisy, with tearful eyes, asked, "Really?"

"I know him too well. Alexander has never cared about any woman except Sophia. Help

him win Sophia over and marry her, and he'll treat you well."

Hearing this, a hint of malice flashed in Daisy's eyes.

But she said, "Okay, I understand. I'll get along with Sophia."

She rolled her eyes and said, "Grandpa, everyone in the company listens to Alexander.

Is he planning to take over the Cross Group?"

Gilbert chuckled, "It would be great if he could take over. You're not in good health, and there are so many things in the company that you can't manage. I hope Alexander will come to his senses soon."

Daisy lowered her eyes and said, "Once I finish my surgery, I can help you manage the company and let Alexander pursue his own career."

Gilbert patted her head, "You're so sensible, knowing how to share my burdens. Don't worry, I'll find you a suitable heart."

Daisy leaned on Gilbert's shoulder, a glint of ruthlessness in her eyes.

As long as she got the Cross Group, she wouldn't be afraid of not getting Alexander.
