Before, when she and Rose Liall were attacked, she called David Benington, who didn't seem to take it seriously.
He didn't come to the Lawrence residence until the next day.
When he saw her, he offered only noncommittal words of comfort and bought her some gifts to appease her.
Even though he was generous in his choice of gifts, choosing only high-end items, Annie Lawrence wasn't pacified.
Instead of those gifts, she preferred him to be like that mysterious man, rushing to her side to support her when she needed it the most.
"I observed that man and he seems to really value Joanna. She must be satisfied with him, right? She previously asked for your help in finding a suitable partner, but it appears she no longer needs that help. With a man of such fine stature, how could Joanna be interested in Manager Prowse?"
Hearing this, David Benington was choked up.
He would rather see Joanna Lawrence with Manager Prowse than with that man.
