Having no intention of hugging Joseph back, Daisy dropped her hands on her sides.
Slowly, Daisy turned around to face him. "Joseph, please respect me. I have nothing to do with you now. I hope you can understand the reality that we have divorced."
For a moment, Joseph fell silent and then he nodded. "Yes, I know. Well, let's have breakfast."
Finally, Joseph let go of Daisy and walked into the dining room first.
"I don't have much time, so I just cooked beef noodles. There's no restaurant that sells breakfast nearby so just eat it even if you don't like it. If you're still hungry then ask your servants to cook for you once you get home." Then she pushed the noodles in front of Joseph.
Thinking that Joseph disliked her, Daisy didn't expect he would eat the food she prepared.
She used to cook for Joseph in different ways, but he didn't like it, not to mention the simplest beef noodles now.
To Daisy's surprise, Joseph lowered his head and ate up the beef noodles in a huff.
"Joseph, eat slowly. No one is going to take it away from you."
A few minutes later, Joseph pushed the empty bowl in front of Daisy. 'I'm not full yet. One more bowl." "You... Why do you eat so much?" Seeing him like this, Daisy felt something unexplainable deep within her, but it was something she would only keep to herself. Her eyes settled on him in disbelief.
As far as Daisy knew, Joseph didn't eat much. In the past, he couldn't finish this bowl of noodles.
This man behaved strangely today.
"Not much. I'm not full yet. What? If you don't like me eating too much, I won't eat anymore," Joseph said mournfully.
"No, I'll get you another bowl." Holding the empty bowl in her hand, Daisy stood up and thought to herself, 'Joseph is so strange today. His tone and attitude towards me have changed so much that I can't accept it.
Does he really become a fool because of too much stress?'
What Daisy didn't know was that except drinking, Joseph hadn't eaten much these days. The anger made it impossible for him to eat. All he did was drink alcohol every day, making his life more miserable.
That was why Joseph remembered how good Daisy was in the past and realized what a jerk he was then.
Staring at Daisy's back, Joseph felt something warm in his heart. While Daisy was busy preparing the noodles, he said, "Daisy, don't drive me away, okay?"
"We have divorced. You can't live in my house. It is absurd. Joseph, marriage is not a game. We just missed it. When a thing is done, it's done. There is no turning back in our lives!" The way Joseph made it sound so easy made her angry. "Hurry up. I'm going to the film crew."
"I want to go with you!" As he spoke, he continued eating. "I'll follow you wherever you go."
What he said left Daisy speechless.
They had known each other for so many years, yet Joseph barely looked at her. What was he doing now?
Why was he being clingy to her?
If he had known what would happen today, there was no way he would do all those awful things to her before.
Even if he wanted to live with her now, it was already too late. Daisy had grown tired of him.
How was that possible, right?
Ignoring Joseph, Daisy lowered her head to eat. After breakfast, she washed the dishes and went upstairs to fix herself before going to the crew.
Once she was done, she took the script and drove out. Joseph was like a stalker following her. People who didn't know Joseph would think that he was Daisy's assistant.
Daisy had been an actress for so many years, but she had never hired an assistant. She took care of everything by herself. Of course, Joseph had never asked her about it.
