There was, in essence, no conflict of interest between them.
Although the two could not be considered as familiar with each other, she had at least seen Daniel in pain before and had taken care of him once or twice.
Was he really unable to tolerate her?
Elisa’s was filled with mixed feelings, he quickly showered, put on his clothes, and went out.
In the room, William sat on the bed, thinking about something.
The orange light cast a faint shadow over his silhouette. It was very artistic.
Elisa felt that it was normal for anyone to be captivated by William.
Hearing her footsteps, William Brich turned his head and waved, and said softly: Come here.
Elisa thought for a moment, then walked towards him.
Before he could even reach William, he was pulled over.
Elisa’s entire center of gravity wobbled, and he fell into his arms.
William confined her in his embrace, opened up a hand and gently touched the mark on her neck.
Their warm skin made contact, causing Elisa to tremble slightly.
Elisa didn’t dare to look into William’s eyes, but still explained: “I’m not too clear about what’s going on.”
William looked at the clear eyes of the little woman in his embrace, and the anger that had arisen in his heart because of the scar on her neck gradually dissipated.
“Did you just meet Daniel Burton ?”
Elisa Whitenodded, “He’s a little strange.”
“Don’t be alone with him in the future.”
“Why?”
Even if William didn’t tell her that, she didn’t plan to interact with him in private anymore.
Daniel asked her who she was two times in a row, clearly treating her as someone he knew in the past.
Elisa thought about what Gwen Brichhad told her before and speculated: “He might think that I’m similar to an old friend of his. Before this, he also did similar actions in our hospital.”
“You are you, no one else,” William said coldly, his voice carried unyielding determination.
Elisa froze for a moment, then nodded: “Indeed. “It’s getting late, you should rest. I’ll do my best to walk in circles when I see him in the future.”
William loosened his grip on her body and walked towards the bathroom without looking back.
Elisa Whitetouched the mark on his neck, sighed and took out the medicine ointment to remove the blood stasis, smearing it on his neck.
He rubbed the cold ointment on his wound, causing it to tingle.
When he slept until midnight, Elisa was awaken by the sound of porcelain shattering.
She moved, wanting to sit up, but was pushed back by a big hand.
“Don’t worry about it.” William’s voice sounded from within the darkness.
“Did something happen?”
“It’s none of our business. If we go over now, it’ll only make things more difficult.”
Seeing that William had even said it like that, she did not want to interfere in their family’s affairs.
Inside Gwen Brich’s room.
Gwen did not even look at the shattered porcelain pieces at Daniel’s feet. Her beautiful face was covered with frost, “What are you planning to do?”
Daniel folded his arms across his chest, and asked back as if he didn’t hear Gwen’s question, “Didn’t you know? “Don’t you feel disgusted at being questioned like this?”
“Elisa is my sister-in-law.” Gwen said coldly.
“Then what? You should know better than me why you didn’t come back to attend their wedding when we were young. Don’t you think it’s too late to get angry? ” Daniel said sarcastically.
Gwen was provoked by his words and laughed, “Do you think that your clumsy trick tonight will allow us, Brich Family member, to kick my sister-in-law out? You, people, are really acting until your brains are muddled, for us Brich Family members to be able to accept a commoner’s wife is definitely not something that can be decided on a whim. As for you? On the surface, it seems like you decided on what you wanted to do, but in reality, you are still under the control of the Brich Family member. As long as you are my, Gwen’s, husband, you will not be able to get rid of Brich Family member for one day. And the psychological freedom you think you’re lying to yourself. You know very well that sooner or later, you will dig that person out of your heart, but you obviously prefer to carry the title of Casanova and not let go no matter what! ”
Daniel looked at the proud face of Gwen, “Do you know why I’ve always looked down on you? It’s just that you think you’re too smart. ”
Gwen laughed instead of getting angry, “Really? It has nothing to do with me whether you like me or like me. This useless feeling will not affect our marriage. ”
After Gwen finished speaking, she went back to bed and did not even look at Daniel who was standing at the door.
The corner of Daniels mouth revealed a demonic smile, and said: “What if Phoebe Clarkson is still alive? The only woman I’ve ever loved in my life is still alive. What would you do? ”
Gwen’s movements froze for a moment, but very quickly, she started to act as if nothing had happened, “It must have been my second brother who made this news earlier than you. You have always been a failure in this relationship. In the process of fighting for Phoebe Clarkson, you lost. Ten years later, you still lost. I don’t know where you got your confidence or your face to talk about it in front of your wife. If you’re purely trying to infuriate me, this method is outdated. ”
Although Gwen hid it well, Daniel still saw the panic in her eyes when she heard Phoebe Clarkson’s name.
“Gwen, are you tired of living like this?”
“Compared to now, I feel that my life is a bit more tiring. Rather than like you all the time, I might as well get you as soon as possible. I am glad that you are not happy, that you are not within my consideration, that you are at least chained to me. If we are not selfish enough to live on, we won’t be able to live on at all. It’s meaningless to be too noble and noble. ” Gwen said as she glanced at him indifferently, “You can go to the guest room to sleep, or you can sleep on my bed.”
Daniel looked at her lightly, opened the door, and went out.
The moment the door closed, Gwen’s upright back instantly collapsed.
Her hand clenched into a fist inside the quilt, trembling slightly.
Marrying someone they had loved for so many years should have been a very happy thing, but none of them seemed willing to live well.
Gwen does not understand why he turned into his current state and said these harsh words to his most beloved.
She and Daniel were like two enemies that hated each other, constantly stabbing daggers into each other’s bodies, each of their strikes being so ruthless and profound.
Both of them wanted to die, but they still refused to let the other go.
Gwen closed her eyes with much difficulty, turned off the lights in the room, and laid down slowly.
The next day.
Elisa had woken up early, she was not in a good mood to sleep late at Brich Family Mansion.
After washing up, she went downstairs to the kitchen to prepare breakfast with the servant at home but was rejected by the servant to help.
