Daisy didn't know why but she felt strangely uneasy, she clenched her hand and then released it, she heard that Atlas had something wrong, he said he had something private to tell her, what exactly was it? It couldn't be something earth-shattering.
Daisy had never felt so anxious and confused.
'Atlas, what's wrong with you?'
---
At Drkov's house, the woman who came to find Dalziel was a girl in her twenties, a pretty figure, snow-white skin with blond hair that looked a bit unfamiliar, she looked at Dalziel with passionate eyes like a sixteen-year-old girl looking at the man of her dreams.
On the other side, Winifred saw her eyes starting to become alert, wanting to open her mouth to ask, but the person opposite had already jumped in and hugged Dalziel, saying: "Dalziel, I miss you so much, do you miss me?"
Dalziel didn't push her away, but instead indulged her and said, "Little girl, when are you coming back? Why didn't you tell me to pick you up?"
"I just came back this morning, I wanted to surprise you so I didn't say anything."
She was still lying in Dalziel's arms, seemingly not feeling the hot gaze of the person beside her.
"What a surprise."
Dalziel spoke as if he didn't know.
"Dalziel, who is this girl?"
It wasn't until now that Winifred had the chance to interject, her eyes couldn't hide the hostility.
"She's my adopted sister, Vivian, with my mother's surname."
Dalziel replied.
"Why did you say I'm your adopted sister, I even want to marry you."
Vivian said unhappily.
"I'm already married, the person next to you is your sister-in-law, Winifred."
Dalziel said indifferently, he was not unaware of this girl's feelings for him, he also liked the young bamboo shoot very much, but he couldn't, this young bamboo shoot was his trump card.
Winifred heard Dalziel introduce himself like that, the jealousy in her heart also decreased by half, but Vivian was furious.
"What are you saying, she is your wife, no way, Dalziel, didn't you say you would marry me, why her, I won't accept it, you have to divorce and marry me."
"Vivian, don't be so unreasonable, she is pregnant with my child, how can I abandon her, we are brothers, how can I marry you."
Dalziel said in a slightly stern to...'But I like you."
Vivian was very straightforward in expressing that she went to France to study mainly because she wanted to stand next to Dalziel one day, but he was already married, how could she accept it?
Winifred sat at the side, stunned to see a girl confessing to her husband, what should she do? Dalziel just looked at the young girl without saying anything, Winifred became more and more impatient, unable to help but say: "Sister, you and Dalziel can't do that."
'Shut up, who are you to butt in?"
Vivian knew that Winifred was Dalziel's wife, so she shouted without any courtesy.
Winifred was momentarily stunned, the fire flared up again, she was Dalziel's wife, but in this girl's eyes, she was nothing, how could this be?
?Enough, Vivian, follow me."
Dalziel didn't look at Winifred's expression and hurriedly pulled Vivian away.
This time Winifred was no longer stunned but shocked.
Why was it like this, why did Dalziel ignore her and go with his adopted sister who had feelings for him, what did he think of her? From Daisy to Vivian, what should she do? At this moment Daisy finally reached the gate of Drkov's house, she did not enter the house but ran to the wooden house behind the house.
When she got closer, she saw a man sitting in a wheelchair in front of the daisy tree, she sighed and walked step by step towards him.
Linus saw her, his eyes lit up, shoutily: "First Lady, you're back."
"Um."
Daisy nodded to him and walked towards the man, but suddenly she stopped.
Not knowing if it was an illusion, she saw his lonely figure, how long had it been since she had seen this image? Daisy suddenly stiffened and felt scared, what happened to make him return to this state? But Atlas heard her footsteps and tried to suppress the shock in his heart, but he did not turn his head to look at her as usual, his hands tightly gripping the wheelchair, his expression tense.
In a moment Daisy had come to him, and looking at his sweaty face, it could be seen that he had been here for a long time.
She looked at him without saying anything, just took out a green embroidered handkerchief from her pocket to wipe his sweat and said: "Why are you sitting here? Aren't you working?"
To her complaint, Atlas did not answer, but only looked at her, he was hesitant, followed by fear, a fear from within because he was about to say words that even he hid not want to say.
For a moment, both of them fell into silence.
Daisy was still wiping his sweat when Atlas suddenly said, 'Daisy, I can't bring you happiness in this life, let's get a divorce, you deserve to be with a better man than me."
Daisy stopped when she heard that, she unconsciously clenched her handkerchief, looked intently at the man's drooping eyes, and asked, 'Atlas, do you know what happiness is?"
Atlas didn't understand what she meant, his eyelids moved slightly, and he could see a hint of doubt in his eyes.
Daisy pointed to the white flower on the branch next to his wheelchair and asked, 'Do you know what flower it is?"
'Daisy."
He said instinctively.
'Here I am."
She replied, her voice filled with joy.
Atlas was startled as if he realized something, Daisy said again: 'Happiness is when you call my name like that, gently, passionately, you can stand up or you can sit here forever, as long as you call my name, engrave my name in your heart, that's enough."
'Is that enough for you?"
'Of course not."
