The Wife You Buried Is Back from Hell novel Chapter 1052

“Mr. Atwood, why don’t I take Danielle home? You’ve had a long day yourself, you should get some rest.” Harold strode over, his gaze fixed on Danielle with obvious concern. He was carrying a small bag containing a detox drink he’d had specially prepared for her.

Gian’s grip on Danielle’s arm tightened. He looked up at Harold, his tone gentle but firm. “There’s no need to trouble yourself, Mr. Chapman. I’ll take her home.” He added, “She’s quite drunk. It’s better if a close friend like me looks after her.”

Harold’s gaze faltered for a second as he took in Gian’s protective stance. He understood immediately. Gian was worried he might take advantage of Danielle in her drunken state. He also understood that as her friend, Gian wanted to maintain clear boundaries. Harold smiled and didn’t press the issue. He handed the bag to Gian. “Then I’ll leave her in your care, Mr. Atwood. Have Danielle drink this when she gets home. It should help her feel better.” “Thank you, Mr. Chapman.” Gian took the drink and, with a nod, turned to guide Danielle toward the parking garage.

Leaning against Gian, Danielle vaguely heard their conversation but didn’t pay it much mind. To her, it didn’t matter who took her home; it was just a friend helping out. But she didn’t know how seriously Gian took the boundaries of their friendship. He knew Harold was interested in Danielle, and he knew Danielle was still emotionally guarded. He wouldn’t let anyone get too close during a vulnerable moment like this and cause her more distress.

The car moved smoothly through the night. Danielle, in the passenger seat, leaned her head against the window and slowly drifted off to sleep. Gian glanced at her in the rearview mirror, eased off the accelerator, and turned up the heat to make sure she didn’t get cold.
