Daisy Zane suddenly felt Arthur North was very much like a large pet, one that needed regular attention. Seeing him like this, she gradually loosened the strength from her hand.
Arthur North immediately held her in his arms. In truth, he was deeply grieved. He couldn't imagine what she had gone through to drive herself to this state.
"Lucia."
"Hmm?" Daisy Zane simply removed her slippers and put her bare feet directly on the seat.
Arthur North pulled a blanket over from the side and covered her feet, saying, "I am a bit jealous."
"What?"
"Why didn't you call me when something happened." Arthur North stroked her head and said, "And why did you call that guy, Austin?"
"He's a lawyer."
"But I'm your boyfriend." Arthur North softly said, "Shouldn't your first instinct be to turn to me when something happens?"
"I..." Daisy Zane swallowed the words at the tip of her tongue and said, "You were the first one I thought of."
"Really?" Arthur North's voice carried a hint of laughter.
