Chapter 600: Release Yakira Mo (part one)

Mary laughed heartily. "I knew you would say that. Why don't you check this photo album first?" she replied. As she spoke, she threw a small photo album in front of Daisy. The album was yellowed with age. It was easy to see from the faded marks on the surface that it had been kept for many years.

"So you did hide the photo album. I thought you and your mother threw it away," Daisy said happily, picking up the photo album with great excitement. She couldn't wait to open it. At the first sight of her mother's gentle face in the picture, her eyes turned red.

"Although your mother didn't have a good sense of fashion, she was beautiful and had a kind of classical charm." Mary curled her lip in distaste. She had to admit that the woman in the photo was very elegant and beautiful. Even her mother couldn't learn such gentle temperament.

Mom, let me see. Is that my grandma?" Justin asked curiously. He leaned against Daisy to get a better view of the album. For Justin, his memory of his grandmother was limited to the small photo on her gravestone. When he heard that the album contained his grandmother's photos, he also got excited.

Yes! Here you go. You can put it in your bag after you finish looking at it." Daisy smiled as she handed the photo album to him. This album was just a small part of her mother's belongings. She knew that if she wanted to get them all back, she had to agree to Mary's demands.

"So? You ought to believe that I have your mother's things now! Will you call the police and let my mother go?" Mary raised her eyebrows as she spoke. She didn't expect the raggedy things she inadvertently found in the house would be a rare treasure for Daisy. It seemed that she did the right thing.

"I'll definitely call the police. But how do I know if you will keep your word?" Daisy replied doubtfully. She turned the phone in her hand. It didn't seem like she wanted to make the phone call.

"Are you joking with me? What would I do with a bunch of useless junk? Of course, if you don't believe me, I have no other way to convince you. Anyway, I've already consulted a lawyer. Despite your influence with the police, my mother can only stay in jail for 48 hours if you have no solid evidence. I can afford to wait for 48 hours," Mary snorted. These items were important to Daisy. But to her, they were just a heap of useless rubbish. If she hadn't seen the photo album, she wouldn't have realized that they belonged to Daisy's mother.

Don't play tricks on me. You know that if I want, I have plenty of ways to put her back in jail," Daisy replied. She also knew that Yakira could be released in 48 hours. But she wanted to show Mary that she would no longer tolerate their abusive behavior. She was not the little girl they could easily bully anymore.

"Excuse me, here's your coffee." At this moment, a waiter brought three cups of coffee and put them one by one on the table before quietly leaving. All his movements were smooth, without any pause.

While Daisy made the phone call, she didn't notice the waiter's strange behavior. As she wondered how to explain the request of releasing Yakira to Mr. Yi, she focused her eyes on Justin who was flicking through the photos. With her sharpness, she would've definitely noticed there was something odd with the waiter's actions when he walked past Mary if she had been paying attention.

"Hello, Mr. Yi. It's Daisy Ouyang. I'm sorry to trouble you again like this. Could you please release Yakira Mo? I'll treat you to dinner later," Daisy said apologetically. It was not that she was surrendering to Mary. She did it to extricate herself from an awkward position. It would be better to accept Mary's demands now. After all, Yakira would be released within 48 hours even if she didn't let her go now. If she called the police now, not only could she take back her mother's relics, but Mary wouldn't be able to ridicule her later.

Colonel Ouyang, you are too polite. I'm the one who should treat you to dinner! After all, I am indebted to you for the gunfight with the arms dealers last time. Thanks to your help, I can keep my position. Releasing Yakira Mo is just a small thing. How could I let you pay for dinner?" Mr. Yi replied.

He only learned about Daisy and Edward Mu's relationship after that gunfight. Then, he understood why Major General Gu mentioned the FX International Group to him last time. He was so ignorant to not even notice such a sensational event. He made such a big mistake.

"Yes, I should. There's a lot more things to bother you later. Don't be so polite to me. Again, thank you very much. I still have something else to do, so I won't bother you anymore. Goodbye!" Daisy never liked dragging things. She hung up after finishing her words.

"Mary, are you satisfied?" Daisy shot her a cold glance as she put her phone on the table. Feeling a little thirsty, she picked up the coffee in front of her and took a few sips without hesitation. Then she placed the cup back on the table.

"Don't worry. Someone will come over to give you the things you want in ten minutes." Mary couldn't help getting a little excited when she saw Daisy take a sip from the cup of coffee. Before that, she was thinking of a way to make Daisy drink it. Unexpectedly, she didn't need to say anything at all. Daisy saved her a lot of trouble and drank it on her own.
