Daniel stood there in a daze, still processing everything. When he turned around, he saw Zervini standing next to Lester, looking at him with a terrified expression. He was instantly shocked.
"Zervini?" he exclaimed in disbelief. Why had she changed so much in just two days? Her eyes were so unfamiliar, as if she didn't know him at all; he was just a stranger, merely a thief who had broken into a mansion in the middle of the night.
Lester's seductive lips curled into a slow smile as he looked at Daniel, whose face had turned pale with anger. A flicker of delight spread through him. He slightly turned his head and gently said to Zervini, who was standing behind him, "Zervini, I'm here. Don't be afraid…"
Upon hearing his words, Daniel's already ashen face darkened even further. What did he just call her? Zervini? What else did he say? Don't be afraid? Was he out of his mind? Who was the one that should be making her afraid?
