Chapter 1012


    At that, Darnell nced at the blood on his sleeve and exined, "It''s not mine."


    ine was stunned, tears hovering in her eyes, not falling, "Huh?"


    Darnell spoke lightly, "It was Ariel who was hurt."


    ine said in a rush, "Then she ......"


    "Archer went for it."


    ine didn''t know what to say for a moment and took a few steps forward to lean against the wall and


    stand next to Darnell.


    The hallway was quiet, and all you could hear was the growing rain behind you.


    I do not know how long it took, ine hand over the mouth, a shallow yawn, eyes somewhat open.


    Darnell looked over at her, "Still not going home?"


    "I ...... I''ll wait for Archer, my friend fainted at night, and he was the one who sent her to the hospital, so


    ......"


    "He should be a long time."


    ine hung her head and whispered, "Then I''ll wait, too."


    Darnell looked at the time, it was 2:00 am.


    He said, "I have things to do."


    Darnell had just taken a step when his coat was pulled by the corner.


    He looked back and ine looked at him usingly, "Actually, I wanted to stay with you."


    Darnell was silent for two seconds and slowly spoke, "ine, your father should have told you that


    staying around me would be dangerous, and now you''ve seen it for yourself. So, go back to your own


    world."


    Instead of letting go, ine clenched her hand: "You promised me that I could meet you in the


    restaurant if I needed anything, but now it doesn''t count?"


    "You can go to me if you have something, but you should know exactly where the line is."


    "So are you drawing the line with me again now?" ine sniffled, "I know it''s dangerous to stay by your


    side, but ...... but I''m not afraid, don''t you push me away ok ......"


    The tears instantly slipped from her eyes, like beads on a string, and could not be stopped.


    Darnell turned and took her in his arms, his hand resting gently on the back of her head, not speaking,


    not knowing what he was thinking.


    ine obediently wrapped her arms around his waist and choked: "No matter how long it takes, I can


    wait, I can also not see you all this time, I will obediently wait for you toe to me ...... even if it is a


    year, three years, five years, ten years... ..."


    "Have you ever thought about what you would do if you liked someone else in the future."


    ine hugged him tightly, "No way."


    Darnell said: "ine, human feelings are veryplex things, and so on time, you may be bored, or


    perhaps be attracted to new things. But once, you are involved in the danger, there is never a day to


    turn back. Do you understand?"


    "I understand, but the feelings are also uncontroble, I like you, see you will be very happy, and stay


    with you will also be happy, can not see you will miss you, more will be sad ......"


    Halfway through the day, Darnell let her go, "I''ll walk you back."


    ine wiped her tears and nodded sobbingly.


    On the road, ine leaned back in the back seat, not knowing when she fell asleep.


    Darnell looked at her, his thin lips slightly pursed.


    Outside the car window, the sound of rain is dull and busy.


    The car pulled up in front of the cottage and Darnell opened the back seat door and bent down to carry


    ine upstairs to her room.


    After putting the person in bed, he had just left the bedroom when hesaw Franklin, who had been


    woken up.


    Franklin looked at the blood on his shirt and frowned, "What happened to ine."


    Darnell pulled the door to his room shut, his expression unchanged: "Asleep."


    "You guys ......"


    "Is it convenient to talk."


    Franklin sulked and took Darnell to the study.


    ......


    The next day, ine slept until noon. She stretched, moved her neck, and shuffled downstairs as


    usual.


    Seeing Franklin sitting on the sofa reading the newspaper, ine yawned and said, "Good morning,


    Daddy, aren''t you going out today?"

    Franklin said, "It''s not early, it''s almost noon dinner."


    ine: "......"


    The maid brought over hot milk, and after ine drank it, she sat down next to Franklin: "Daddy, what


    are you looking at?"


    Franklin put down the newspaper and asked instead of answering, "Where did you gost night, you


    came back in the middle of the night."


    ine rolled her eyes and said, "Natasha met a bad guy and went into the hospital, and they couldn''t


    reach her dad, so they asked me toe over."


    "So how is she doing."


    "She didn''t ......" the words came out of her mouth and ine frowned, "It''s pretty serious, I have to go


    check on herter after lunch."


    Franklin doesn''t say anything, he just looks at her.


    ine was so weak from his look that she couldn''t help but look away sideways and try to change the


    subject: "By the way dad, how did you know I came back in the middle of the night ah, I ......"


    Halfway through, it urred to her that Darnell had sent her back.


    But she fell asleep in the car and doesn''t remember anything behind her.


    Franklin reopened the paper, "The maid said so this morning."


    ine tried out, "So have you ...... seen ......"


    "See what?"


    ine immediately said, "No no, nothing."


    After lunch, ine put down her chopsticks and ran upstairs to change and get ready for the hospital.


    But when she came downstairs with great enthusiasm, Franklin spoke without dy: "Don''t go


    anywhere today."


    ine said, "Natasha is still in the hospital and I have to go stay with her."


    "There are doctors in the hospital, what''s the use of you going there."


    "Of course it works." ine sat down next to Franklin again and shook his arm to pout, "Dad, Natasha


    is my best friend, she''s in the hospital, how can I not be there for her, she''ll be bored and


    ufortable alone."


    Franklin looked outside, gesturing to the rain that was still falling, "It''s raining too much to go out


    safely."


    "I''ll have the driver drive a little slower, very, very slowly, and absolutely make sure it''s safe." Saying


    that, ine began to squeeze his shoulders again, "OK, Daddy, please."


    Franklin sighed helplessly, "ine, do you really have to go see him."


    ine nodded: "I''ll just go to the hospital to see her, and I definitely won''t wander off."


    Franklin was about to say something else when one of his men came in and reported on the job.


    Seeing this, ine got up smoothly: "I''ll go first then, Dad, you go about your business."


    After saying that, a slip of the tongue ran out.


    Franklin simply could not do anything about her, sighing and looking at his men, "Did you get the


    information?"


    The next nod: "has confirmed,st night''s incident, not the James family people, but do not rule out the


    rtionship with them, should still be those people before."


    Franklin frowned slightly: "They did it once, wounding Darnell, and once, wounding his most powerful


    men. It looks like they know Darnell better than we expected."


    "These people have been hiding in the shadows, and only Carl McPherson has had contact with them.


    mr. James, in other news,st night our men saw Carl''s son Brendon at Miss Osborne''s birthday party,


    sneaking around."
