Chapter 44 His Promise

Daryl stood outside Zack's room on the second floor. She took a deep breath, and planned how she would persuade Benjamin to not be impulsive. However, the little boy knocked on the door. "What?"

Zack was still on the phone when he opened the door. "What's up?"

"Daddy, Mommy wants to help you apply the ointment. Talk on the phone later, and let Mommy enter first!"

Benjamin whined. He then pushed Daryl towards Zack and placed the first-aid box in her hands.

"Ah!"

Caught off guard, Daryl stumbled and threw herself into Zack's arms.

Zack took one step back when he caught Daryl.

Benjamin slammed the door shut.

He called Dillon over. "Dillon, hurry up! Come over here and lock the door!"

When Dillon heard this, he wanted to cry. 'Oh my God! How could he call me by my name in such a loud voice?

What if Mr. Ji decides to get even with me tomorrow?

Forget it.' After slight hesitation, he decided to help Benjamin lock the door from the outside at the risk of being punished. Done! Benjamin smiled and told Dillon, "You must tell the servants in the villa not to open this door tonight!"

"Understood."
