Out of the bathroom, Darnell put her on the sofa and pulled her hand.

Elaine reflexively went into his arms and unconsciously chanted, "No, I don't want to go back to Switzerland."

Darnell's temples throbbed with his voice low and hoarse. "I'm not sending you back to Switzerland. Let go first."

Elaine sniffed and sobbed. "You lied. You're all lying to me. I don't want to go to Switzerland. I have no friends there, and I can't get used to the food. I'm really… Really homesick."

She desperately wanted to escape when she couldn't, but now she missed the place where she used to grow up all the time.

People were always contradictions.

Hearing her crying, Darnell patted her back.

Elaine lay on his shoulder, sobbing until her breathing gradually became steady, and she fell asleep.

Darnell pulled her out of his arms and placed her on the sofa.

Elaine seemed to be crying in her dreams with her face covered in tears.

Darnell wiped it.

Elaine obediently turned sideways and held his hand, pressing it against her face as she drifted off to sleep.

He glanced at her with his eyebrows twitched and immediately withdrew his gaze. His throat knot slid up and down.

He sat there, staring out with an uncertain expression.

After Elaine had fallen asleep after a long time, Darnell gently pulled his arm out and shook it slightly.

Elaine huddled on the sofa, the neckline of her nightdress revealing her delicate skin, and her skirt hem was also rolled up, showing a small section of pink underwear.

Darnell closed his eyes, put a blanket aside on her body, and then carried her back to the guest bedroom.

After covering her with the blanket, Darnell straightened her hair strewn across her forehead.
