Miss, My Father loves you novel Chapter 44

Daryl stood outside Zack's room on the second floor. She took a deep breath, and planned how she would persuade Benjamin to not be impulsive. However, the little boy knocked on the door.

"What?"

Zack was still on the phone when he opened the door. "What's up?"

"Daddy, Mommy wants to help you apply the ointment. Talk on the phone later, and let Mommy enter first!"

Benjamin whined. He then pushed Daryl towards Zack and placed the first-aid box in her hands.

"Ah!"

Caught off guard, Daryl stumbled and threw herself into Zack's arms.

Zack took one step back when he caught Daryl.

Benjamin slammed the door shut.

He called Dillon over. "Dillon, hurry up! Come over here and lock the door!"

When Dillon heard this, he wanted to cry. 'Oh my God! How could he call me by my name in such a loud voice?

What if Mr. Ji decides to get even with me tomorrow?

Forget it.' After slight hesitation, he decided to help Benjamin lock the door from the outside at the risk of being punished. Done!

Benjamin smiled and told Dillon, "You must tell the servants in the villa not to open this door tonight!"

"Understood."

In the room

Daryl threw herself into Zack's arms and looked up into his dark eyes.

"I'm so sorry."

Daryl turned her head away and avoided his gaze. She lowered her head as she reached out her hand, trying to prop herself up.

But after a few seconds, she heard the sound of locking coming from the other side of the door.

Daryl tried to pry the door open, but failed.

"Bennie! Open the door. Did you lock it from the outside?"

She anxiously pounded on the door, but was responded with only silence. There was a trace of coldness from behind her.

Daryl knew that the door wouldn't be opened. She turned around and looked at the man in front of her. "WelL.I didn't expect that Bennie would do something like that."

Zack's cold eyes stared down at her petite figure. "Weren't you supposed to help me apply the ointment?" He spoke in an apathetic tone.

"What?"

Daryl was stunned for a while. She quickly shook it off and responded, "Oh, yes."

She then picked up the first-aid box from the floor while Zack sat on the sofa.

Daryl followed him to the sofa and sat beside him. She opened the box, and repeated the previous steps. Her movements were neat and efficient.

"What's wrong with your face?"

Zack asked in a low voice as she was about to apply the ointment to his arm.

Daryl paused for a moment. Her lips pursed as she whispered, "I got into an accident while I was filming."

Not even Benjamin could be fooled by such a lame excuse.

A hint of anger flashed before Zack's eyes. 'The foolish woman didn't even know how to fight back, even after being slapped. If Benjamin hadn't avenged her, would she had burdened herself by carrying all this anger?'
