Sitting in the car, Elaine sneezed without warning and felt dizzy.

Darnell raised his hand and touched her forehead, then took off his jacket and put it over her: “Remember to take some cold medicine when you get back, it's cooling down in the past two days, wear more.”

Elaine leaned into his arms, wrapped her arms around his strong, thin waist, and looked up at him blearily, “Can I come home with you?”

Damell lowered his eyes, met her gaze, and his thin lips twitched slightly, “No”

Elaine knew that would be the answer, and she pouted, “I lost the man my dad sent to follow me today, and when I get home, he's going to scold me”

"If you don't come home tonight, he's not just going to scold you.”

"But I'm hard, dizzy and uncomfortable, I don't want to go back to be scolded, tomorrow ...... I'd rather go back to be beaten tomorrow,

Darnell rubbed her head, ‘I'll walk you in, he won't scold you.”

Franklin would only scold him.

Elaine thought it made sense. Her father, no matter how angry he was, would not have flared up in front of Darnell, but would only lecture her in private.

And after a good night's sleep, his anger may have subsided some more.

She rubbed her little face in his arms and closed her eyes contentedly.

Soon, the black car slowly drove into the carved gate.

After getting out of the car, Elaine followed Darnell and waited until she reached the living room before cautiously poking a head out, “Daddy”

Franklin sat there with a sullen face, not saying a word, as if he was brewing anger.

He glanced at Elaine before looking ahead of her at Darnell, who nodded slightly at him.

Franklin clearly had no intention of paying attention to him, but instead asked Elaine a soulful question, “Elaine, where were you this afternoon”

Elaine sniffed and hugged Damell's arm a little nervously, "I ...... I'm going to dinner with Natasha and Archer”
