Chapter 410 410: Ready to lose your freedom?

By the time Ethan and Davis returned to the estate, dusk had already deepened, the mansion glowing faintly against the darkening sky.

Deborah hurried to welcome them back, her hands quickly setting the dining table. But Davis brushed past her gesture, his voice flat.

"I'm not eating."

She watched his tall frame retreat toward the staircase, a knot of worry tightening in her chest. At last, she couldn't endure it anymore.

"Davis," she called softly.

His footsteps faltered mid-stair. For a heartbeat, he stood motionless, shoulders tense, before slowly turning his head, as he waited for her to come over.

Ever since she moved into the estate, Deborah had always called him Sir, keeping that careful boundary of respect.

But now hearing his name leave her lips, Davis felt something stir deep inside. For an instant, he thought he heard his late mother's voice.

The ache of loss welled up inside him, his emotion spun. He wanted to tell her how much he was hurting, but the words remained trapped in his throat. He couldn't and he will never..

"Davis," she said again, her voice trembling.

She was not expecting him to answer, but to her shock, his lips parted, and a single word slipped out, "Ma'am."

Deborah's heart lurched. Her world spun at the sound, tears stinging her eyes.

"They told me you haven't been eating well," she whispered. "Seeing you after just a few days… I can tell it's true."

Since Jessica's accident, Deborah had spent most of her time at the hospital, tending to Jessica and the twins. She only came home briefly for essentials. waiting for Jessica and the twins.


But just this afternoon, Ethan got worried about Davis' eating habits.

He was afraid he might be down with gastro problems, and it would be more challenging.

With no option left, he sought the help of Deborah. Thinking back now, Deborah felt she had been wrong to have overlooked the one who might be hurting more.
