seraphina’s face flushed with embarrassment: “Dante… you shouldn’t have to do something like this…”

Dante didn’t stop what he was doing, his voice unusually gentle: “You just nearly drowned. Your body’s still weak, you can’t handle cold water. This is nothing.”

Inderwear.

Turns out, it wasn’t that he was naturally cold or clueless about romance.

le just saved all his tenderness and consideration for the woman named Seraphina.

he pain spread through her chest like a thousand tiny cuts. She couldn’t watch anymore. She turned and walked away, step by painful step, toward the billing

ffice.

Over the next few days, Dante never came to see her once.

he changed her own bandages, ate alone, endured the pain from her wounds and the emptiness in her heart all by herself.

In discharge day, she was handling the paperwork when she ran into Dante and Seraphina, who were also checking out.

eraphina saw her and immediately rushed over with fake concern: “Oh my God! You’re being discharged too? That’s wonderful! After we fell in the water. I ept telling Dante he should go find you, but he said you’d probably made it out on your own since I was so weak and needed him to stay with me… I felt so uilty about it. I’m so relieved to see you’re okay…”

And you? All you do is hang around the kitchen! I know which life has more value! Now Seraphina’s trying to be nice to ou, and you’re giving her attitude?”

velyn’s heart was screaming in pain. She started to speak, but Dante was already impatiently pulling Seraphina toward the car, then coldly told Evelyn: “Are ou getting in or not?”

velyn didn’t want to make a scene in front of the hospital, so she silently got in the back seat.

o this is how he treated someone he actually cared about.

eraphina suddenly said: “Dante, don’t take me home yet. Can we stop by that bookstore? I want to pick up some technical books.”

Jante’s voice was full of admiration: “Still such a dedicated student.”

You have to keep learning to keep growing, right?”

When Dante saw this, he immediately frowned: “You think you can understand any of that? Just because I complimented Seraphina on studying, now you’re trying to copy her?”

Seraphina smoothly intervened: “Dante, don’t say that. It’s good that she wants to learn.”

Dante said nothing more and pulled out his wallet to pay.

But Evelyn stopped him: “No need. I’ll pay for my own.”

Dante looked startled, like he hadn’t expected her to refuse.

This was the first time she’d shown any hint of independence around him.

Something unpleasant flickered in his eyes, but he didn’t push it: “Whatever.”

After paying, Dante naturally moved to carry Seraphina’s books.

Seraphina protested: “I can manage. You should help your wife–her arm looks injured.”

Dante glanced at Evelyn: “She’s used to doing housework. She can handle carrying a few books.”
