At exactly seven o'clock in the morning, Daniel drove Emily back to the hotel. He took the initiative to go out so she could comfortably shower and change clothes, then it was his turn.

The feeling of sharing the living space in this room with a girl made him feel like they were a couple, almost husband and wife.

“The wounds haven't completely healed yet. Besides, you told your dad you were going on a business trip for a week.”

Daniel spoke up when he saw her arranging the dresses and clothes he bought and putting them into bags.

Although she hadn't said anything, he understood that this was the action of someone who was about to leave.

“Ah, I... I miss him and I don't feel very secure, an elderly person being at home alone...”

    Because Kevin had an appointment with the city party secretary, before five o'clock, he picked up his briefcase and left the office. He also wanted to bring his assistant with him, but looking at her tired face, he couldn't bear to drag her with him. Anyway, her body is weak so it would be better for her to go home and rest. Furthermore, tonight Daniel was also invited to a ceremony honoring young entrepreneurs, so he guessed that his younger brother probably wouldn't have time to follow her footsteps. Emily stayed behind, arranged the documents neatly, cleaned the desk and floor, then turned off the light and walked to the elevator. The private offices of big bosses are always cleaned by assistants. Cleaning staff are not allowed in, they only clean the hallways.

    After a while of trying to ask, Emily also knew the real reason for the wounds on her father's body.Turns out, there was no mistake, but it was a warning from a group of gangsters specializing in predatory lending. They threatened that if within a week he did not pay back both capital and interest, they would take his life.She didn't expect that her father would get into debt and the interest would multiply day by day.“Emily, don't keep crying like that. Or... please ask Kevin to help us. He loves you so much that ignoring the past, he will help us. You are also creating a good relationship with his family members, right?”At this point, Emily could no longer hide this from her father. She bitterly confessed to him that she was abandoned by Kevin the night she went to his house for dinner.He brought another girl home to introduce her to his family and said he did so because he wanted her to experience being betrayed by someone else.“So where have you been these days?

At this moment, her heart suddenly fluttered a little towards the man standing before her.“Why didn't you take the time to rest and come here?” She walked over, put the porridge box on the table, and asked.“Ah, I was worried that your dad was hungry early so I came in to feed him first. You can't leave the company any sooner.” He smiled gently, and stepped back, making room for her.To be honest, Daniel came here when she was not present partly to tell her father about his feelings for her and ask for help because she kept avoiding him and not giving him a chance.“Do you feel less pain yet?” She sat down on the edge of the bed, raised her hand to gently touch her father's face, and asked softly.“Yes, I'm feeling much better, I'll feel more comfortable when I get home and I'll be

Don't worry about anything.” Kevin reached out and gently pinched his wife's cheek and spoke.“Yes.”Emily nodded and continued to eat breakfast. Kevin always ate faster than her and left the table before her.Maybe it was because he had to go to the company, and she was at home, with nothing urgent to handle.While eating, she thought about what gift to give her mother-in-law.
