Chapter 1041


    In the evening, the maids cleaned up when they brought the puppies to Darnell''s room.


    Since ine had exined that he was not allowed to take a bath yet after his vination, the maid


    just used a wet towel to wipe the stains off his body.


    The puppy entered the room, first sniffed all over the room, but did not find ine, then obediently went


    to their nest, shrunken into a small ball, slightly open eyes some defensive and cautious look at


    Darnell, not loud and not a noise, no movement at all.


    Darnell sat in the couch, leaning slightly forward, his hands casually resting on hisp.


    Half a while, he suddenly remembered what seems to be, the corners of his mouth tugged down.


    It is like ine when she first saw him, careful and trying to reduce her presence.


    A few momentster, Darnell''s cell phone rang.


    He withdrew his eyes and connected.


    "Master of Riverside, just got word that Franklin is already working on preparations to leave Riverside


    City. It looks like he should be preparing to take Miss James with him and the route has changed."


    Darnell hmmed lightly: "Keep an eye on Caesar and the James family, and tell me immediately if there


    is any movement."


    "Yes."


    Putting away the phone, Darnell re-picked up the envelope next to him with a slight frown.


    Early the next morning, the envelope was back in Franklin''s hands.


    The man Darnell sent over said, "Master of Riverside says that since you''ve made your decision, you


    should destroy the contents of this and not let Miss James have a chance to see it."


    Franklin took the envelope with a somewhat strained expression, and he said, "Tell Darnell that I hope


    he will keep his promise."


    The hand nodded: "You can rest assured that Master of Riverside will never go back on his word."


    At that moment, ine ran downstairs and recognized the man standing across from her dad as one of


    Darnell''s men and came over, "Dad, what are you talking about?"


    Immediately afterwards, her eyes fell on the envelope, "What is this again?"


    Without saying a word, the handlers nodded at them and left.


    Franklin coughed and hid the envelope behind his back: "It''s nothing, ine, go have breakfast."


    ine was full of doubts, but she didn''t dare to make her father angry again anytime soon, so she sat


    down at the table obediently.


    And Franklin burned the suicide note left to ine with his own hands after breakfast.


    The firelight reflected on his heavy face, but more than a little sad.


    Once he decided to take ine out of Riverside City, it would mean that they could never return here


    again.


    And there is no ce for them in the entire James family.

    Not only that, but they will also face the endless pursuit of the James family.


    ......


    In the time that followed, ine would run to Darnell every day to take care of the little puppy.


    And also gave it a name, called Cake.


    Little Cake is growing up under her care, and after a bath, revealing that snowy white fur, it is especially


    cute.


    Since the hair on his head was too long to cover his eyes, ine also gave him a pigtail with a pink


    bow.


    But ine can''t stay here for too long. At most, by the end of the day, the man her father sent will be


    rushing her home.


    The opportunity for her and Darnell to meet and spend time alone in practice has plummeted.


    Little Cake''s boldness has also grown, sometimes jumping onto the couch and lying next to Darnell,


    pawing at him, wanting him to y with him.


    Darnell looked at its pink bow pigtails and fell into a long silence.


    During Archer once came over and saw a small furry thing rubbing at his feet, full of amazement, and


    when he learned that the dog was living in a room with Darnell, he went home andughed for two


    days and nights, although he did not see that image with his own eyes.


    In the world Darnell grew up in, there was only killing and cold-bloodedness.


    If he had a big, imposing wolf dog, Archer would find it barely eptable.


    Even so, Darnell is not likely to let the dog and he sleep in a room, at most the backyard to build a


    doghouse.


    But this soft and cuddly organism, all snowy white, with big watery eyes and a pink bow, slept next to


    his bed.


    The only person who can do all this is really ine.


    After a period of calm and quiet, it was soon time for Franklin''s birthday party.


    The James family, which seemed to be at peace, has seen a new round of undercurrents.


    ine and Natasha were shopping together at the mall, picking out a birthday present for her dad, but


    while they were shopping, they entered a pet supply store and bought a lot in one go.


    Natasha couldn''t help but say, "ine, aren''t you here to buy a birthday present for your dad."


    ine responded abruptly, "Right oh."


    Said, she was a bit torn: "But just looked at so many, I think they are not very good, I do not know what


    else to buy."


    Natasha stroked his chin and thought: "Yes, your father is notcking in anything, but buying a gift is


    just a thought, he will like whatever you send."


    "But after my dad''s birthday, I''m going to study in Switzend and won''t be back for two or three years,


    and I wanted to give him a meaningful gift."


    The two wandered around the mall for most of the day again, and finally found a store where you can


    customize handmade doll dolls.


    ine thought this was good, so she sent a picture of her and her dad together and asked them to


    pinch it like this.


    After cing the order to determine the details, ine again took out a shy photo of Darnell and Little


    Cake while Natasha was not paying attention and asked them to pinch it as well.


    Since time was tight and Franklin''s birthday was in two days, ine added money for them to pinch out


    the birthday gift she wanted to give first, and the other time could be a littleter.


    ine was finally relieved to have chosen her birthday present.


    As she and Natasha discussed what to eat for the evening, Natasha suddenly said, "Do you want ......


    to call your cousin to join you?"


    ine was faintly puzzled, "Call on him for what."


    Natasha''s gaze burns: "It''s just that ...... think it''s quite wasteful if the two of us go to a hot pot, we can''t


    finish it every time."


    ine thought it made sense and immediately gave Archer a call and asked if he wanted toe out


    for dinner.


    Archer said, "I''m in theb, take your time."


    ine said, "But you have to eat in theb, in case you pass out from hunger, it''s not worth the loss."


    Archer: "......"


    He didn''t have the heart to say, "I''m blessed to have you."


    ine winked, "Who made you my cousin."


    Archer said, "OK, OK, OK, send me the address, I''lle overter."


    "Okay oh."


    ine hung up the phone and Natasha rushed to ask, "How''s it going? Is heing?"


    ine nodded, "Come."


    Natasha immediately said, "YES!"


    ine: "Eh?"
