Ella Howard and Phil Lee have a close relationship, which explains why Ella seemed to target Lyra Smith as soon as she arrived.
Erwin Jackson worried that Lyra's condition might be affected by this situation, so he lowered his voice and said, "I'll try to stay with you all the time to protect you."
But he didn't say the last three words, feeling it was inappropriate to say, as it would lack justification.
Lyra looked at Erwin Jackson: "You'll stay with me the whole time?"
Erwin Jackson looked calm, thinking Lyra didn't believe him: "Do you not trust me?"
Lyra: "..."
Erwin Jackson realized from Lyra's reaction that there was conflict between them before.
Many tensions.
Lyra's disbelief was understandable.
He offered a reason he didn't particularly like: "Anyway, since you're married to my uncle, you're part of the Jackson Family. Protecting you is also protecting my own family. If anything happens to you, my uncle will come after me."
