Nollace picked up someone’s call, and Diana held onto Daisie's hand when he got up to leave.
"Don’t blame Nollace.He really wants to marry you.He didn’t stop working even when he was sick.
"He’s someone who loves to handle everything by himself.He would rather be misunderstood than
explain himself.But as a mother, I understand him and know he likes you a lot."
Daisie paused, then after a while, she looked down and mumbled, "Really?"
She was curious.
Nollace didn’t remember their past, so when did he start having feelings for her? Diana laughed.
"You're so lovable.If I like you too, it’s impossible that he doesn’t."
The girl had some sort of magic to her.She was innocent, and her kindness was contagious and made
people not want to leave her and want to protect her.
Diana thought that was how her son felt too, and that was why he was so in love.
Outside, Nollace answered the call from Edison, who said that a guard from the hospital was robbed by
someone with a gun and was stabbed a few times.He was pronounced dead after emergency first
aid.His eyes were dark.
"Armed robbery? That's too much of a coincidence."
Edison said, "They’re probably trying to shut him up."
"Get more information."
He ended the call and stood on the spot, deep in thought.
Daisie suddenly popped her head out from behind him.
"Who was that?"
Nollace grabbed her by her waist and pulled her forward.
"Why did you come outside?"
"I came out to see you." She looked around.
"If you’re busy, I could _»" Before she could finish, Nollace kissed her.
"I’m not busy today. I’m all yours."
His warm breath surrounded her and made her heart skip a beat. She didn’t know where to look.
"Don’t work too hard. You need to rest when it’s time to rest." Nollace smiled.
"Are you feeling bad about it?" Daisie looked at him and smiled.
"If you die of exhaustion, who’s going to marry me?"
Nollace wore a wide smile and pressed his lips to her forehead, " Then I shouldn’t die of exhaustion."
"Nolly, I'll wait for you, no matter how long it takes. So don’t work yourself too hard."
Daisie hugged him by his waist and pressed her cheek on his heaving chest.His heart skipped a beat,
and he looked at the top of her head. Even her little swirl was adorable.
He laughed.
"Alright."
Meanwhile, at the college...
Freyja walked out of the building, turned a corner, and bumped into Colton speaking to his friend.She
looked at his left hand.
When he punched the wall, it was so hard she felt the wall shake.
Colton looked at her, and while the people around him were having a laugh, he wasn’t.
When they walked past her, Freyja suddenly asked, "Is your hand okay?"
Colton stopped and looked at her with no expression.
"It’s none of your business." Freyja shrugged.
She was aware of his temper, and it would be understandable he was still defensive since what she
had said made him angry.She walked past him, but Colton spoke.
"Hey."
Freyja turned around.
"Yes?"
Colton squinted at her.
"Weren’t you afraid that I would hit you the other day?"
"I was just being honest and went overboard, but I would understand if you weren’t happy about it and
hit me."
