Bab 263: Eyes off my man

''How are you connected to Ryle's mother?" Daisy's unhurried words interrupted the man, his words trailed off and his lips parted. 

His eyes widened and in that briefest moment, Daisy caught something. Disbelief, astonishment, denial and something she could not put a finger on. But it was there. 

His expression went back to being composed in a split-second and if Daisy had taken her attention off him even for the split-second, she would not have noticed anything. 

The man chuckled. ''What? That boyfriend of yours… Wait! His mother? You… I might seem shameless but what exactly do you think of me huh?'' 

Daisy tilted her gaze down and flipped the last page of the file that she held in her hand. She signed it and calmly placed the file aside. 

Caleb's words were left hanging in empty air, not even graced with a reply or cursory glance.
