Chapter 991
ine lifted the nket and, holding back the pain, limped out.
Touching the door frame to look out, she found the quiet corridor was empty.
ine looked back and saw her suitcase sitting aside the door.
She pulled on the suitcase and moved forward in pain.
It was hard to get down the steps, and by the time she reached the ground floor, she was tired and
sweaty, and the ce where she had fallen was even more painful.
ine took a deep breath and lifted her chin slightly, ready to maintain the dignity she had left and
leave the ce to forget the awkwardness she had before.

She had just taken a few steps when she smelt the fragrance of food.
It awakened her dormant hunger.
ine nced at the dining room and couldn''t move her eyes, nor could she move her feet.
She was starving.
The whole house was silent, and everyone seemed to be asleep.
"Just eat a little before I go."
ine put down her suitcase and saw that all the food was just right to eat.
Having been hungry for too long and dizzy, she practically wolfed down her food without any elegance.
Halfway through her meal, she choked and got up to find water.
A male voice sounded when she felt like she would choke to death. "There''s soup."
ine felt embarrassed.
She jerked her head around and looked into the living room. When was he there?
Darnell put down the paper in his hand, stood up and approached her.
ine unexpectedly met his gaze and hurriedly averted her eyes, finding a ceramic soup pot with a lid
and soon drinking two spoonfuls regardless of anything.
Darnell sat opposite her. "How long did you fly for?"
ine lowered her eyes and whispered, "I don''t remember."
Seeing her in constraint, Darnell asked, "Are you full?"
"No. "
"Then continue."
Hearing him say that, ine slowly picked up her chopsticks again and ate with much more civility.
Darnell looked at her for a moment. "I don''t know your favorites, so I had them make some randomly.
You can talk to them yourself to prepare what you like tomorrow."
ine muttered. "No need, I''ll go back to Switzend tonight."
Darnell checked the time. "Okay, I''ll take you to the airportter."
ine lowered her head more in silence.
When she couldn''t control her tears falling on the table, Darnell found that she was crying.
Darnell''s eyebrows twitched as he said in his calmest voice, "Didn''t you want to go back tonight?"
ine choked out, "I''ve fallen like this, and you still let me go. You are so cold."
"Take a private jet."
"Then you should let my father pick me up. I''d rather stay in Switzend for the rest of my life. Never
come back."
The more ine said, the more aggrieved she became, sobbing.
Darnell rubbed his brow helplessly, got up, and sat next to her, gently patting her back. "It''s easy to
choke when you cry during eating. Don''t you know it?"
ine sobbed hard. "I''m going to die of pain. Maybe choke to death is better!"
"Where does it hurt? I''ll ask Archer to take a look."
Hearing him say that, ine took the courage to look at him and poke her heart. "Here."
Darnell frowned slightly, "How?"
"You have a girlfriend, so it''s aching here."
As she spoke, she cried even louder.
Darnell felt speechless.
"ine."
ine was now aggrieved, and in pain, so she wasn''t afraid of him and cried so hard that she couldn''t
catch her breath.
Darnell finally lost his words but took two pieces of paper to let her wipe her tears.
ine did not take it, choking. "I know you hate me, but you stayed with another woman when I came
back so far to see you. When you first rejected me, you were so cold, not even answering my
messages. We still have had a marriage contract, but now you''re kicking me out. You want me to stay
in Switzend for the rest of my life, right?"
Speaking of this, ine became even more ufortable and cried, bending over the table.
It looked like she was so sad that the whole house echoed with her crying.
Darnell had never seen a girl crying, much less knowing how tofort her, so he sat in silence.
Only when ine calmed down a little did he say, "I''m not kicking you out. You can stay here as long
as you want."
ine raised her head slightly, looked at him through her messy hair, and sobbed, "Then can I stay
here all the time and not go back to Switzend?"
"No."
Seeing that ine would start crying again, Darnell pressed his temples andpromised, "She''s not
my girlfriend."
ine sat up some more with her face full of tears, "Then why was she wearing your pajamas while
you were in the bathroom taking a shower? You guys…"
Darnell was concise. "Coffee spilt. I don''t know when she changed her clothes."
Although her tears were still falling, ine''s mood was much better.
"Go upstairs and sleep."
ine said pitifully, "It hurts."
"Then how do you walk downstairs?"
ine puckered her mouth and wiped the tears. "I felt too ashamed, and I thought she was your
girlfriend. I didn''t want to ruin your rtionship."
"You don''t feel ashamed now?"
ine lowered her head again, looking so adorable.
"Not eating anymore?"
She whispered, "Yes."
Could anybody continue eating?
Darnell leaned down and picked her up directly.
ine was unprepared and cried out in surprise, looking up at him.
Darnell was indifferent. "I won''t care about you next time you walk downstairs like this."
ine spoke tentatively, "Then will you carry me every time?"
"Someone will bring the food to your room."
ine protested, "I''m not a prisoner, and I need to move around. It''s hard for me to stay inside for a
long time."
Darnell nced at her, "When you were fighting with your dad, you often locked yourself in your room,
not eating or drinking."
ine sheepishly averted her eyes as she stammered, "That was so long ago. Anyway, I don''t like to
stay in my room now."
