1166words
Dalziel didn't know what Mr. Drkov was thinking. He stood in front of the projection screen with an arrogant and confident look, very much like a talented leader that everyone admired.
He had been in this position for almost a year, so all his strengths and aspirations had been revealed.
This meeting was just a test for Mr. Drkov. He already knew what he needed to know and paid no more attention to this meeting.

By 11:30, Daisy had finally finished three dishes and a dessert. Since everyone was on their own for lunch and Mr. Drkov hadn't returned yet, she made a few dishes for Atlas and herself and brought them up to the room.
The person who helped her bring the food was Lisa, a kitchen assistant, twenty years old this year, this girl was just hired last week. Her personality was gentle and hard-working so Daisy liked her very much.
'Madam, is the Eldest Young Master scary?"
Lisa walked beside Daisy, worriedly asking.
'Oh, have you heard the rumors from those servants?"
Daisy didn't have to guess, those people all gossiped about him and her whenever they had free time, they thought she didn't know but she didn't care.
'That's right, they all said the Eldest Young Master was fierce, the Eldest Young Lady was domineering."
Lisa was like an innocent girl saying what she heard.
'So how do you feel?"
Daisy didn't answer but asked back.
'I think you're very good, when I first started working, no one taught me well, but just now you taught me very thoughtfully, whatever I asked you answered, as for the Eldest Young Master, I didn't dare to get close, his eyes were a bit scary."
Lisa answered honestly.
She also understood that old ghosts bully new ghosts, no matter what the working environment and new people are always the target for old people to show off and exploit their labor, but when Lisa said Atlas was scary, she defended him.
"Don't be afraid of him because he looks cold on the outside, he is very cute and very thoughtful, knows how to take care of others, especially knows how to please his wife, not to mention he is very talented, knows how to design, speaks three languages, has good taste, is handsome and dashing on the outside, in short, he is an extremely wonderful man."
Daisy praised Atlas, then remembered the two gifts he gave her. After taking them off, she kept them very carefully, treating them as treasures to cherish.
Lisa next to her added a sentence: "But he is disabled."
Daisy's excitement suddenly disappeared, replaced by a gloomy expression that made Lisa look worried. 'Lisa, no one in this world is perfect, even if he has to sit in a wheelchair forever, in my heart, he is still the best man, I don't want to hear the word "disabled" anymore, understand?"
Daisy's voice was as gentle as the autumn wind, but for some reason, Lisa felt a little cold after hearing it. She obediently said: "I know, First Lady."
"Okay, it's good that you know. We're almost there, give me the food and go to the dining room."
Seeing the wooden house appear before her eyes, Daisy suddenly stopped, taking the food from Lisa's hand.
The little girl obediently gave the food to Daisy, then said goodbye to her and turned to leave.
Daisy walked to the table under the tree and saw Linus leaning against the cherry tree on the other side, yawning.
Seeing her coming, his eyes lit up, and asked: "First Lady, what did you cook today?"
Linus had tasted her cooking, so he was so excited that his saliva was about to flow out.
"I just cooked some common dishes, you set the table, and I'll go call him."
Daisy put the food on the table and walked to the wooden door, but before she could knock, the door opened automatically.
Seeing Atlas, she happily asked: "Are you done?"
"Not yet, but I heard it."
What he meant was that he stopped working and went out because he heard her voice.
Daisy understood what he meant and suggested, "Let me push the wheelchair for you."
Atlas refused again, saying, "You come here first."
Although she didn't know what he wanted to do, Daisy still came to him.
"Sit down."
Atlas's voice was a bit commanding.
Daisy also sat down with him, at this time he took out a handkerchief from his body to wipe the sweat on her forehead, and also blamed: "Why did you come here without an umbrella?"
The weather today was a bit harsh, he opened the door and felt the hot air blowing in. He looked at the sweat on Daisy's forehead and couldn't help but frown.
Surprised by his actions, Daisy froze for a few seconds before reacting and saying, "I'm afraid you're hungry."
"I can wait, next time you have to wear a hat or bring an umbrella."Atlas's voice was a bit stern as if he was teaching a child.
Daisy knew that he cared about her, so she smiled and said, "Yes, I know, husband."
This time, hearing the word husband, Atlas felt extremely comfortable and no longer felt disgusted and uncomfortable like before.
Very quickly, the three of them sat at the dining table. The food on the table was not the best, but it was extremely delicious, not to mention Daisy's cooking skills were not bad.
Linus praised while eating and said, "First Lady, will you cook again tomorrow?"
"Depending on my mood."
Daisy said half-jokingly, but in her heart, she had already calculated what to cook tomorrow.

Atlas sat in the study and finished typing the last line, then stopped and looked out the window. He saw a few drops of rain hitting the glass. Looking up, he saw the sky starting to darken and a few lightning bolts also rumbled down. Outside, the servants were running back and forth, in a moment, only one figure remained, busy doing something.
Although it was just a back, he knew who it was with just a glance, his eyebrows furrowed.
Why was Daisy still there? At this moment, a bolt of lightning almost struck Daisy's back, she was startled, and Atlas in the room was also frightened.
"Daisy."
He instinctively called her name, but the person outside didn't hear.
