'I have pictures but it's not convenient for you to see,"
Daisy said.
'Just give it here."Mr. Drkov insisted on watching.
Daisy was a little worried but also gave him a stack of photos. As soon as he saw a photo, his veins immediately flared up, and the old man's face turned slightly red. The photo was just a kissing scene between a man and a woman without revealing their bodies, but to Mr. Drkov it looked a bit strange.
'Dalziel... why does he do this kind of thing, he... how can he be with Winifred?"
Mr. Drkov seemed difficult to accept.
'Grandpa, can I ask who this girl is?"
Daisy wants to know the identity of this girl. She guessed that she was most likely the one who made him distrust women.
Mr. Drkov thought for a moment and then lamented: "There's nothing I can't tell you, she is Winifred and is considered Atlas's fiancee, but at that time it was not announced to the press so everyone didn't know she was his girlfriend."Why did she leave Atlas?"
Although she had guessed a few things in her heart, she wasn't sure.
'Because Atlas is crippled and no one will be there for him. Winifred then wanted to cancel the engagement. That's why the boy's spirit became even worse. I talked to her, asked her to stay with Atlas, and gave her my conditions. But she would rather die than be with him. I have no other choice?"
Mr. Drkov's voice could not hide his helplessness.
After hearing this, Daisy felt a bit sad for him. How could that woman leave him because he was disabled? Seeing as he seemed to love her so much, he became so hateful towards women. People say only love can lead to hate. Somehow, knowing that he once loved someone else deeply made her feel a little uncomfortable, but she didn't know what it was. Daisy heard Mr. Drkov continue: "Daisy, I believe you can stay by Atlas' side and not leave him. It's not because of our initial agreement, but it comes from your heart. Atlas can't endure more, do you understand?"
'I know, don't worry, I'm always honest with him."
She didn't say that just to be polite everything she did for him came from her sincerity.
'Okay, as long as you are honest with Atlas, I will help you when you need it."
Mr. Drkov's words were full of meaning.
Daisy completely understood what he meant. Even though she reassured him, he still didn't completely trust her, so he promised to make her feel more secure.
She didn't say anything anymore, nor was she sad that he didn't trust her because she knew it took time for someone to trust her, and she couldn't make others trust her with words. Daisy left Mr. Drkov's room at lunchtime. She immediately went straight to the kitchen. As soon as she walked down the stairs, a figure walked up to the rooftop.
'Madam, Second Young Master."
Looking at the middle-aged woman and young man drinking, the butler politely greeted them.
'Um, how was last night?"
Mrs. Nenito asked before the butler opened his mouth to speak.
'Madam, the servant said that last night when the First Lady entered the room, the first Young Master became angry again and injured her bandaged right hand. The servant who came in to clean said there was blood on the floor."
'To the point of bloodshed, it was very intense."
Dalziel shook the wine glass in his hand and spoke somewhat interestingly.
'Hmm, that girl will be like that soon."
Mrs. Nenito snorted coldly and said, she was still not very satisfied. Dalziel knew that his mother was still not satisfied, so he said without hesitation: "There are still many good games, Mother, just enjoy them slowly, sooner or later it will satisfy you."
Hearing that, Mrs. Nenito looked at her son: "Do you have any plans?"
'I want to marry Winifred."
Dalziel suddenly said.
'What, Dalziel, are you serious or joking? Why would you want to marry a woman who was once Atlas's girlfriend? I don't agree. There are many noble women more suitable for you than her. If you want to get married, I will find the right person for you. With her, you just have to have fun."
Mrs. Nenito objected vehemently.
'Mom, you don't have to be like that, I married Winifred for my purposes."
'What purpose?"
Her son's words made Mrs. Nenito a bit skeptical. For what purpose did her son want to marry the girl Winifred? If she wasn't Atlas's girlfriend before, she could reluctantly accept it, she doesn't want her son to reuse Atlas's things. Dalziel did not answer his mother immediately but looked at the housekeeper and said: "You go downstairs first."
'That, Second Young Master, the boss said he wanted to see you in the early afternoon."
The butler glanced at Dalziel.
'I know, you go first."
Waiting for the housekeeper to come down, Mrs. Nenito asked again: "Dalziel, why does that old man want to see you?"
"I'll know later when I meet him."
Dalziel said leisurely and took a sip of wine, unable to help but think about why his grandfather met him.
'Is it a company problem?"
Mrs. Nenito tried to guess.
Dalziel shook his head again: "No way, it's about the company, I've already arranged it, he won't know that quickly."Okay, let's talk about this later, you haven't told me why you want to marry Winifred."
Mrs. Nenito still wants to know this, she doesn't like Winifred.
Dalziel curled his lips slightly before starting to speak: "Mom, do you think me marrying Winifred will make Atlas angrier?"
"You don't have to marry her, though. I've already chosen the right person for you. If you marry this person, it will be better for you."
Mrs. Nenito frowned and said, obviously still not accepting her son marrying Winifred.
