Daniel lazily pocketed the money and glanced at the man, giving him a look that clearly said, "Do you think I'm stupid?" "Let her go." Just two simple words, yet they carried an indescribable authority.
"Money for goods," Theodore insisted, staring intently at Daniel, fearful that a single misstep would cause the money in his hands to vanish.
Zirvine was being led by Theodore, slowly moving toward Daniel. She couldn't make a sound; her large eyes were filled with anxious fear. She glanced at the person beside her, and Theodore was completely focused on Daniel. Then she looked at Daniel, who was staring intently at her.
Although his expression was blank, Zirvine could still sense the tension and worry radiating from him. He was worried about her!
