Amelia understood his meaning and let out a gentle sigh, then lifted her hand to tug at the man's sleeve, whispering softly, "Say something."
Daniel Cooper lowered his gaze to the woman's fingers clutching his sleeve and, going with the motion, clasped her cold fingers in his palm and spoke faintly, "In the future, you need to be even more loyal to Ms. Foster, it was not in vain that she came over in the middle of the night to plead for you."
Benjamin Parker, though he knew Mr. Cooper would let him off the hook for the sake of Ms. Foster's face, didn't expect him to let go so lightly.
He immediately said, "Mr. Cooper, rest assured, from now on I will be fully committed and loyal to Ms. Foster and the White Group, ready to lay down my life."
He was just short of swearing to the heavens.
Amelia, seeing the mottled scars on Benjamin Parker's face, a hint of guilt flashed through her brows, "I'm sorry, it was my fault that you were dragged into this, and that you got hurt."
