Doris said. “Have a seat. I see you’ve bought quite a few groceries and food items. I’ll cook for you. I can have a look around my house!”
“Good idea; I like it,” Daniel replied with a laugh. “It’s as if you didn’t break my vase for nothing.”
Doris looked at the scar on Daniel’s forehead. The wound had healed, but the scar was still very noticeable. It might take a year for it to recover fully. I felt somehow guilty. Hold on, Waylon knew how to make a scar removal ointment, right? I should ask for the ointment from him one day.
As the thought crossed her mind, there was a knock on the door.
“Coming!” Doris shouted while running toward the door..
When Doris opened it, she was stunned. Was that Waylon? I should shut the door immediately! Daniel is inside my house now! They didn’t get along! What would happen if Waylon saw Daniel? What would he think about Daniel being here? I was afraid of what Waylon would say. He talked too much!
Waylon carried two large bags and squeezed his way in while Doris was hesitating. Waylon immediately noticed a pair of slippers neatly placed at the entrance.
Waylon’s face turned gloomy when he saw the slippers and realized that Daniel was there.
“Well…” Doris hesitated and said, “Mr. Daniel is just visiting me.”
Daniel stepped out when he heard their voices.
Daniel said, “Mr. Adelmar? Did you also come to visit Doris’ new house?
Waylon replied expressionlessly, “I already did. I came to eat today.”
Danel pondered for awhile. Waylon behaves as if he’s at home!
Waylon changed into slippers and walked into the kitchen with his two bags of food.
Dantel watched as he disappeared into the kitchen and pondered. Those slippers seem to fit him perfectly. Doris does prepare for him!
Waydon noticed the groceries that Daniel brought and casually tossed them aside.
Deris walked in and said awkwardly, “Mr. Adelmar, you can wait in the living room. I’ll prepare the meal.
Waylon snorted and said, “Wouldn’t it be awkward sitting with Daniel? I don’t know him well.”
“How can you not know, Mr. Daniel?” Doris said incredulously. “You’re friends with Lily, aren’t you?”
“Who told you that?” Waylon said it coldly.
I replied, “Isn’t it true?” I’ve always thought so.”
