After dinner, Anna and Daniel Taylor went back to their room to have a rest. Anna came downstairs to get water and heard mom and dad talking.
The incident of Isabella Brown’s return made mother Taylor very sad.
Anna heard her saying, "What did our Daniel has done wrong? Why he has to be treated like this? When he was fine, you know how that woman came to coax him. Now she has become like this!"
"If Daniel hadn’t had this accident, we couldn’t even see that she was such a person. Till now, she must be married to Daniel. Try to see the positive side. There’s no need to feel sorry for a woman like her!" Father Taylor said.
Daniel Taylor couldn’t stand up, and they can’t do anything.
No matter how sad they were, they can only hide it. They were afraid that Daniel Taylor will be more upset.
"Positive side, how can I see the positive side? My son didn’t steal or rob or commit a crime. Why people are repugnant to him?" She recalled Brown family’s attitude and for a while, she couldn’t stop her tears,
"I haven’t slept well since Daniel’s accident. He is so obedient and excellent. Why he experienced these much terrible things? It’s you who agree to let him be a soldier and made my son what he is today!"
She can only complain like this in front of her husband.
Father Taylor consoled, "To be a soldier is a great thing, even if you give him another chance, he will still choose this career."
Their family condition was very good but Daniel Taylor insisted on choosing this career from the beginning.
A man should be brave enough to protect his country. He was proud of his son.
Anna silently took the water and went upstairs.
Daniel Taylor was sitting by the window and looking at his yard.
It was dark outside, he can’t see clearly outside, but he was looking very serious.
Just by looking at him like this, Anna’s eyes turned red. She took the blanket and walked over to cover his legs.
Daniel Taylor was stunned and looked at Anna…
Anna squatted down beside him and held his hand. "I was away for a while, and you started missing someone else?"
"Whom I can miss?" Daniel Taylor looked at the little girl that seemed weird.
