At that, Darnell glanced at the blood on his sleeve and explained, "It's not mine." Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
Elaine was stunned, tears hovering in her eyes, not falling, "Huh?"
Darnell spoke lightly, "It was Ariel who was hurt."
Elaine said in a rush, "Then she ......"
"Archer went for it."
Elaine didn't know what to say for a moment and took a few steps forward to lean against the wall and stand next to Darnell.
The hallway was quiet, and all you could hear was the growing rain behind you.
I do not know how long it took, Elaine hand over the mouth, a shallow yawn, eyes somewhat open.
Darnell looked over at her, "Still not going home?"
"I ...... I'll wait for Archer, my friend fainted at night, and he was the one who sent her to the hospital, so ......"
"He should be a long time."
Elaine hung her head and whispered, "Then I'll wait, too."
Darnell looked at the time, it was 2:00 am.
He said, "I have things to do."
Darnell had just taken a step when his coat was pulled by the corner.
He looked back and Elaine looked at him accusingly, "Actually, I wanted to stay with you."
Darnell was silent for two seconds and slowly spoke, "Elaine, your father should have told you that staying around me would be dangerous, and now you've seen it for yourself. So, go back to your own world."
Instead of letting go, Elaine clenched her hand: "You promised me that I could meet you in the restaurant if I needed anything, but now it doesn't count?"
"You can go to me if you have something, but you should know exactly where the line is."
"So are you drawing the line with me again now?" Elaine sniffled, "I know it's dangerous to stay by your side, but ...... but I'm not afraid, don't you push me away ok ......"
The tears instantly slipped from her eyes, like beads on a string, and could not be stopped.
Darnell turned and took her in his arms, his hand resting gently on the back of her head, not speaking, not knowing what he was thinking.
Elaine obediently wrapped her arms around his waist and choked: "No matter how long it takes, I can wait, I can also not see you all this time, I will obediently wait for you to come to me ...... even if it is a year, three years, five years, ten years... ..."
"Have you ever thought about what you would do if you liked someone else in the future."
Elaine hugged him tightly, "No way."
Darnell said: "Elaine, human feelings are very complex things, and so on time, you may be bored, or perhaps be attracted to new things. But once, you are involved in the danger, there is never a day to turn back. Do you understand?"
"I understand, but the feelings are also uncontrollable, I like you, see you will be very happy, and stay with you will also be happy, can not see you will miss you, more will be sad ......"
Halfway through the day, Darnell let her go, "I'll walk you back."
Elaine wiped her tears and nodded sobbingly.
On the road, Elaine leaned back in the back seat, not knowing when she fell asleep.
Darnell looked at her, his thin lips slightly pursed.
Outside the car window, the sound of rain is dull and busy.
The car pulled up in front of the cottage and Darnell opened the back seat door and bent down to carry Elaine upstairs to her room.
After putting the person in bed, he had just left the bedroom when hesaw Franklin, who had been woken up.
Franklin looked at the blood on his shirt and frowned, "What happened to Elaine."
Darnell pulled the door to his room shut, his expression unchanged: "Asleep."
"You guys ......"
"Is it convenient to talk."
Franklin sulked and took Darnell to the study.
......
The next day, Elaine slept until noon. She stretched, moved her neck, and shuffled downstairs as usual.
Seeing Franklin sitting on the sofa reading the newspaper, Elaine yawned and said, "Good morning, Daddy, aren't you going out today?"
Franklin said, "It's not early, it's almost noon dinner."
Elaine: "......"
The maid brought over hot milk, and after Elaine drank it, she sat down next to Franklin: "Daddy, what are you looking at?"
Franklin put down the newspaper and asked instead of answering, "Where did you go last night, you came back in the middle of the night."
Elaine rolled her eyes and said, "Natasha met a bad guy and went into the hospital, and they couldn't reach her dad, so they asked me to come over."
"So how is she doing."
"She didn't ......" the words came out of her mouth and Elaine frowned, "It's pretty serious, I have to go check on her later after lunch."
Franklin doesn't say anything, he just looks at her.
Elaine was so weak from his look that she couldn't help but look away sideways and try to change the subject: "By the way dad, how did you know I came back in the middle of the night ah, I ......"
Halfway through, it occurred to her that Darnell had sent her back.
But she fell asleep in the car and doesn't remember anything behind her.
Franklin reopened the paper, "The maid said so this morning."
Elaine tried out, "So have you ...... seen ......"
"See what?"
Elaine immediately said, "No no, nothing."
After lunch, Elaine put down her chopsticks and ran upstairs to change and get ready for the hospital.
But when she came downstairs with great enthusiasm, Franklin spoke without delay: "Don't go anywhere today."
Elaine said, "Natasha is still in the hospital and I have to go stay with her."
"There are doctors in the hospital, what's the use of you going there."
"Of course it works." Elaine sat down next to Franklin again and shook his arm to pout, "Dad, Natasha is my best friend, she's in the hospital, how can I not be there for her, she'll be bored and uncomfortable alone."
Franklin looked outside, gesturing to the rain that was still falling, "It's raining too much to go out safely."
"I'll have the driver drive a little slower, very, very slowly, and absolutely make sure it's safe." Saying that, Elaine began to squeeze his shoulders again, "OK, Daddy, please."
Franklin sighed helplessly, "Elaine, do you really have to go see him."
Elaine nodded: "I'll just go to the hospital to see her, and I definitely won't wander off."
Franklin was about to say something else when one of his men came in and reported on the job.
Seeing this, Elaine got up smoothly: "I'll go first then, Dad, you go about your business."
After saying that, a slip of the tongue ran out.
Franklin simply could not do anything about her, sighing and looking at his men, "Did you get the information?"
The next nod: "has confirmed, last night's incident, not the James family people, but do not rule out the relationship with them, should still be those people before."
Franklin frowned slightly: "They did it once, wounding Darnell, and once, wounding his most powerful men. It looks like they know Darnell better than we expected."
"These people have been hiding in the shadows, and only Carl McPherson has had contact with them. mr. James, in other news, last night our men saw Carl's son Brendon at Miss Osborne's birthday party, sneaking around."
