Mr. Leighton heard the door close and sighed, wondering why Winifred had become such a child.
In the room, Winifred texted Dalziel, mainly complaining about Mr. Leighton's attitude towards her.
On the other side, Dalziel received her message, he did not care about her feelings but only cared about one thing: that she had failed.
He thought momentarily and then sent a text message: "It's okay, I will slowly advise him, I just need his seal."
Very quickly a text message came: "I will help you get his seal."
"Then your grandfather will be angry. I can't bear to see you being scolded by him."
Seeing that Dalziel cared about her, she happily texted back: "It's okay, he loves me very much and won't do anything to me, let me worry about this matter."
Dalziel smiled when he read this news, he knew she would listen to him.
Unexpectedly, the person Atlas loved passionately was just that, Dalziel sent a text message with two words: "Love you."
Winifred jumped up looking at these two words. She sent a similar message and went into the bathroom.

At eleven o'clock at night, everyone was on the plane.
When the plane had not yet taken off, Daisy took the opportunity to talk to Mr. Drkov: "Grandpa, can I visit my mother tomorrow?"
"Uhm, I don't forbid you to go to your mother's house, you can go anytime."
Mr. Drkov said leisurely.
Daisy was grateful: "Thank you."
Mr. Drkov said nothing and closed his eyes to rest.
Seeing that, Daisy returned to her seat and sat next to Atlas.
She secretly looked at him. His eyes were closed but she knew he wasn't asleep yet so she didn't wake him up: "Tomorrow I'll go back to my mother's house."
Having finished speaking, without waiting for him to respond, she yawned, took out the thin blanket she brought, covered herself, and slept.
Waiting for her to fall asleep, Atlas opened his eyes and looked to the right, just as her head tilted toward his left shoulder.
Atlas instinctively moved aside, but before he could, her head fell on his shoulder.
His body began to tense again. He instinctively wanted to reach out and push this woman away, but at that moment he heard her mutter: "Atlas."
His hand stopped in midair, did this woman call his name in her sleep? What is she dreaming about? Atlas's emotions arose again.
He was so deep in thought that he forgot to push her away.

At eight o'clock the next day, Daisy was at her mother's house again. Not long after getting off the plane to return to Atlas's house, she ran to Mrs. Cara.
She returned without warning, making Mrs. Cara extremely happy and she hugged her: "Daisy, I thought you wouldn't come back."
"Mr. Drkov is very easy-going, I just asked him to let me go home."
Daisy said happily.
'What about your husband? He didn't say anything, right?"
Mrs. Cara asked a little worriedly.
'Mom, don't worry, he won't say anything."
That man affirmed that he wanted her to immediately disappear from his presence.
When talking about him, she somehow remembered his angry expression. Not only was she not afraid, but she also felt that he was a little adorable.
Her favorite thing to do is tease him until he's angry and then be satisfied, but she also has ways of not making him mad.
Mrs. Cara suddenly thought of something and said: "I forgot something."
'What's wrong, mom?"
Seeing her like that, Daisy frowned and asked.
"You came back without notice, the house ran out of food and I didn't have time to buy it."
Mrs. Cara quickly spoke.
Daisy raised her eyebrows, she thought something was wrong, it turned out that this, her mother really... drove her crazy for a while.
'It's just a small matter, Mom, let's go shopping together, isn't that over?"
'If you have just arrived, please rest and leave me alone."
Mrs. Cara seemed sorry for her daughter.
'I'm okay, I want to go with you. Haven't been to the market in a while. I want to eat Aunt Helen's lotus seed dessert. Mom, let me go with you."
Daisy hugged her mother's arm and whispered.
'If you want to eat, I will buy and feed you."
Mrs. Cara said.
'Mainly I want to spend more time with you. I have to go home in the afternoon."
Hearing that, Mrs. Cara did not stop her anymore, she also wanted to spend more time with her daughter.
Daisy just arrived at the market. She went to Aunt Helen's restaurant to eat lotus seed soup. Mrs. Cara saw it and immediately said: "If you eat lotus seed sweet soup, how can you eat the rice I cook?"
'Don't worry, I can still eat all the rice you cooked."
Daisy patted her chest and said.
'This girl only knows how to talk, you stay here and eat, I'll go to the butcher to buy some pork belly and then come back."
'You eat with me and then we go together."
'Waiting for you to finish eating, I'm afraid people will buy all the meat. I'll go away for a moment and then come back to you."
Daisy thinks it's right, meat is the most expensive here because the store owner sells it cheap and fresh, and everyone competes to buy it.
'Yes. You go quickly."
As soon as Mrs. Cara left, Aunt Helen also brought out two cups of lotus seed sweet soup. After looking around, she asked: 'Where is your mother going?"
'My mother went to buy meat because she was afraid it would be out of stock."
Daisy smiled as she spoke, her eyes lit up again when she saw lotus seed sweet soup.
Hearing that, Aunt Helen didn't ask much but said: "Where have you been lately? You don't come to my place to eat lotus seed sweet soup anymore, or you criticize this old lady for not cooking well."
