"Really?"
He seemed incredulous.
"You have to believe me, we won't talk about this anymore. When I passed by the market, I bought some oranges to eat together."
Daisy wanted to change the subject but found that the bag of oranges she was holding in her hand was gone. She instinctively turned around and saw a few oranges rolling around outside the door, some of which had been crushed by the group of people.
Daisy felt extremely regretful. She had just returned, and seeing this scene, she was so angry that she threw everything in her hand to the ground.
Winifred was helped up, looked at the three of them resentfully, and said: "You guys wait, today's matter isn't over yet."
"Oh my god, why does it sound like a palace drama?"
Daisy stuck out her tongue and heard the person behind her cough a few times.
She woke up, turned her head, and forced a smile, saying: "That, the orange is rotten."
"I don't want to eat it."
His tone was a bit uncertain, making Daisy feel uneasy.
Atlas glanced at Linus again, saying: "You go out first."
"Yes, young master."
Linus walked out the door, conveniently closing the door for the two of them.
In the room, there were finally only him and her left. Daisy's hands and feet were a bit flustered, this was the first time she felt a bit nervous when facing him.'Come here."
Atlas's voice did not change, he was still as calm as before.
Daisy walked towards him when she was almost there, he grabbed her right hand, but before she could react, he had already removed the bandages layer by layer, through two layers, he could see the blood stains, Daisy tilted her face slightly and walked over to hear him coldly say: 'Is this the small scratch you mentioned?"
Atlas looked at the long and dazzling wound on her arm, his expression darkened.
Daisy swallowed and continued to explain: 'The fall was too hard so…"
'Don't lie, this is a stab wound."
Atlas interrupted her clumsy lie, he was not blind and could not distinguish, this woman deliberately hid it from him.
'Why, how do you know so clearly?"
Daisy was sweating profusely and was a bit shy, she was usually so aggressive towards him but now she was like a docile cat.
Atlas didn't reply, just glared at her: "You still don't tell the truth."
Daisy sighed, knowing that she couldn't find any more excuses, she could only tell him everything while talking, and she didn't forget to pay attention to his expression.
His expression wasn't very good, he didn't want to appear gloomy, but he was gloomy.
"Atlas, are you okay?"
Daisy asked worriedly, she didn't like seeing his expression like that.
Suddenly, her whole body was pulled back, and in a moment she was in the arms of a certain man, in her ear she could vaguely hear the man's breathing: "Daisy, I've implicated you."
'What are you talking about, we are husband and wife, what is there to be involved with, I can still handle it, don't worry."
Daisy was happy in her heart that he cared about her, saying he was worried about her.
Atlas hugged her tighter, if she was just a weak woman, she would have been harmed by them long ago, thinking of this, Atlas's mood suddenly calmed down.
Daisy understood part of his mood, he was unfortunate, she didn't want him to think too much so she changed the topic: "That's right, I saw that Linus was very good just now, did he learn martial arts or practice?"
"Linus's physique is very special, he has no concept of weight, and everything is very light to him."
Atlas replied hoarsely.
"Is there such a person in this world, I heard that he was found for you by your grandfather, your grandfather is amazing."
Daisy couldn't help but click her tongue.
"At first, Grandpa saw Linus fainted on the side of the road so he brought him here, then he wanted to stay so Grandpa brought him to me, he didn't know Linus's situation either."
"So you found out, how did you know?"
She was a little curious.
"There was someone who came to bother me so I let Linus handle it, he did that."
Atlas recounted, that his body also relaxed a little.
"You just found out like that?"
Atlas shook his head: "Not really, I checked him two or three more times before confirming."
"Luckily you didn't tell him to throw me out at first, otherwise I would have been bedridden with a broken bone."
Daisy said half-jokingly, Winifred was lucky that she had a back cushion just now, but if she had been thrown out, the consequences would have been the same.
He heard her say that and started teasing again: "He's not your opponent."
'Haha, that's right, if he wants to beat me, he has to touch me, like you said, he is not my opponent, how about it, do you think I am good or not?"
Daisy took this opportunity to brag.
Atlas looked at her smug expression, his eyes became gentle, unconsciously reaching out to caress her cheek, his voice warm: "You are one of a kind."
"Is this a compliment or do you think I am very good? Also, when you told Linus to throw Winifred away like that, didn't you feel guilty?"
She thought he still had feelings for her, but looking at his attitude just now, he didn't have any pity for Winifred, did he still love her in the end?
At this moment, Daisy was very suspicious of this, if he didn't love her, he wouldn't hate her, his eyes revealed resentment towards Winifred, but his attitude made Daisy extremely confused.
"Humph, I just feel sorry for you."
Atlas suddenly said something.
Before Daisy could react, he continued: "Daisy, from now on, you are not allowed to be hurt anymore, okay?"
He couldn't do anything for her, he didn't want her to be hurt because of him, her wound was like a knife stabbing straight into his heart, it hurt so much.
