Chapter 68
Dillan wasn’t as flippant as before. He smiled gently and said, “Looks like you don’t need a handkerchief.”
Gilda said with a serious look, “Of course. I’m not crying”
“I thought you’d cry like last time. I even prepared two pieces. Dillan took out another handkerchief with a smile. “I’m really thoughtful, aren’t I?”
Gilda remembered that night when she cried in front of her “enemy” on the rooftop in Geleston. She rarely looked embarrassed. “I didn’t. You remember it wrong.”
Dillan did not argue with Gilda but just nodded. “If you say so.”
Dillan looked at Gilda’s unhappy face and thought that Gilda cried last time must be because of Jensen…
“Do you want me to beat him?” When Dillan asked Gilda this question, his eyes were full of seriousness. He did some punches and said, “I’m at your service.”
“Jensen is your friend. It’s already rare if you don’t take his side.” Gilda shrugged as if she didn’t believe his
words.
Dillan patted his chest so hard that he made himself cough. “No way. I’m an envoy of justice. I won’t be biased toward him just because he’s my friend.”
Dillan looked at Gilda with a smile, like a knight fighting for the Queen.
Gilda’s beauty was sharp, and Dillan was willing to submit.
Dillan’s serious look was so funny that Gilda couldn’t help laughing. “Nonsense!”
“As long as you’re willing to hear it.”
Dillan stepped forward and stood beside Gilda.
“So glib,” Gilda continued to comment on Dillan, but this time there was a smile on her face.
Gilda thought, “This guy takes my side today. He’s much better than Jensen that idiot.”
Then Gilda looked up at Dillan’s charming eyes and found that he seemed to be… less annoying.
“Seriously, can you forget the things about me offending you before?” When Dillan asked Gilda, he was a little nervous and even straightened up his body.
“I was too superficial before. I’ll be different afterward!”
Dillan didn’t know that he had hurt such a good girl unintentionally. People had to pay for their own. mistakes. He was an honest man and also a person who would admit his mistakes. He wouldn’t be as stubborn as Jensen.

“I’ve forgotten those long ago. Just stop following me around and expressing your feelings all the time, Gilda fixed her hair, which was blown by the night breeze, and said casually.
“No way!” Dillan was stubborn. “I will never give up pursuing you!”
“So annoying.” Gilda turned around to leave and waved to her back. “Thanks.”
“Call me if Jensen makes trouble for you again. Remember… Dillan shouted behind Gilda.
“So nagging.”
Gilda called the chauffeur to pick her up and then went back to the Lynch residence.
Before Gilda went to bed, Vicky called her.
“Why did you leave first? Megan was asking about you.”
Those people of the Harrington family came to me again. I didn’t bother talking to them so I left first,” Gilda said casually.
“I’ve asked security guards to put the Tears of the Sea in the safe.”
“Oh, alright.” Gilda had completely forgotten about it.
