Atlas saw her worried expression, his heart softened a little: "Daisy, you don't have to do so much for me."
"What, I just like doing this much, I'll do more in the future, Atlas, do you feel refreshed?"
"Um."
Atlas didn't deny it, he had been avoiding her all this time, he couldn't even touch a hair on her head, seeing her so submissive, how could he not feel refreshed?
Daisy held his hand again and said, 'Do you know why I didn't give this recording to your grandfather?"
'If I'm not mistaken, you want her to live in fear and anxiety."
Atlas could guess what she meant without even thinking.
Daisy smiled, 'As expected of my husband, you're really smart, that's right, she's been too complacent lately, it's time to make her nervous."
'Only you could think of that, but doing so is a bit risky."Atlas was a little worried, because there was Dalziel beside her, and this person was the real danger. Mrs. Nenito only had a few small tricks, but Dalziel could think of more sinister plans.
'I'm not afraid, you're with me, right?"
Daisy had never seen any dark things since she was young, was she afraid of a powerful family?
'I'm not sure if I can protect you, Daisy, I…"
Daisy put a finger on his lips, stopping him from continuing, instead, she said softly: 'I told you I would protect you, you don't have to do anything, just love me a little more every day and I will be satisfied."
'Is your wish that simple?"
Atlas was speechless.
'Who said it was simple, to make you believe me, I don't know how much I thought, I almost took out my heart and liver to show you, but I still haven't got your heart."
Daisy's tone couldn't help but have a little resentment.
Atlas was silent for a moment, he saw everything she did for him with his eyes, he could even clearly feel her feelings, but he...
It's not that he didn't have feelings for her, it's just that he didn't dare to say words of love, ever since he had to be in a wheelchair, all his confidence had been paralyzed along with his legs, in addition to his inferiority complex, he was afraid of many other things, worried that he wouldn't be able to give her what she wanted.
Atlas had always been arrogant towards himself, but now he no longer had any arrogance, only bitterness and torment remained.
Daisy didn't know what he was thinking, looking at his depressed, helpless expression, her heart ached again, he was sure underestimated himself again.
'Atlas, I will wait for you."
Daisy suddenly said a sentence that made Atlas unable to react, only able to escape from his train of thought.
She looked at him gently as water, saying each word: 'No matter what happens, no matter what people think of you, I will always trust you, so I am willing to wait for you, wait until the time when you can break out of your shell, completely accept me, accept this world, our time is still long so I am not in a hurry, I also believe that day will not be long, right, my dear husband?"
Daisy winked at him and emphasized the word 'husband", in a space where there were only two people, at a distance, she could hear every beat of his heart, it was extremely bustling as if it was beating for her.

Daisy did not tell Mr. Drkov about the kidnapping, but she could not help but tell him about Atlas's medicine.
When Mr. Drkov heard that there was a problem with the medicine and his complexion could not be better, he gave the secret prescription to the investigator. Daisy believed that he could investigate this matter, so she was very relieved. She said again: 'Grandpa, then I will not give Atlas the medicine anymore. I see that he has been much better recently. His previous bad temper and irritability were probably caused by this medicine."Um, you're right, I'll investigate this matter, hmm, who dares to play tricks in front of me."
Mr. Drkov couldn't help but get angry.
"There's something I don't know if I should tell you."
Daisy hesitated a bit.
"Just say it, there's nothing in this house that can't be told to me."
Mr. Drkov took it as encouragement, after a long time he also believed Daisy.
She originally only wanted to care about Atlas, but now there was someone who wouldn't let her go, no need to guess who this person was, she couldn't turn a blind eye anymore.
After thinking for a bit, she said: "Actually, I've always felt that the butler has a problem, I can't say clearly what problem he has, maybe it's because I'm thinking too much, but I still hope you pay attention."
Mr. Drkov frowned when he heard this and said, 'Butler Leo has been with me for twenty years. He has arranged everything in the house very well and has not lied to his superiors or subordinates. He is also meticulous in his work. I have always respected him and have never seen any problems with him. However, since you said so, I will pay attention."
Unexpectedly, Mr. Drkov valued Butler Leo so much. Daisy did not say much. She said, 'Maybe I am too sensitive. If you trust Butler Leo, you don't need to pay attention to my words. I have said too many unnecessary things."
On the contrary, Mr. Drkov said in a serious tone, 'No, what you said is not unnecessary. Although he is a long-time confidant, people's hearts are hard to predict. Alright, I still have to thank you for the reminder. You don't need to be so nervous."
'Alright, then I will take my leave first."
Daisy sighed inwardly. As soon as he stepped out of the room, Butler Leo arrived.
He saw her and respectfully greeted her, 'First Lady."
'Um, it's so late, Butler Leo, are you still looking for Grandpa?"
Daisy looked at the wall clock, ten o'clock in the evening.
For young people, ten o'clock in the evening was still early, but for an old man like him, it was time to rest.
'I have something to tell the boss."
Butler Leo spoke carefully, the hair on the back of his neck stood up involuntarily, he felt that Daisy's gaze was a bit scary, no wonder the madam was so angry that she fell ill.
