The corners of Todd's mouth twitched. He seemed to have compromised.
"Okay, you're not a drunkard. It's rare to see you so cute, so I'll take this punch."
Todd was carrying Daisy out of the bar. Ann was suddenly pushed by Todd. She fell straight to Phillip.
When she smelled the familiar fragrance of Phillip, she hurriedly wanted to stand up. But she accidentally stepped on a wine bottle under her feet. She was about to fall on her back.
It was over.
When she closed her eyes, she was mentally prepared to break her face, but a strong hand crossed her waist, holding her firmly.
Ann opened her eyes and stood up. Phillip retracted his hand. He was still cold and indifferent. He did not look at her, as if he was not the one who had helped Ann.
At this moment, Ann clearly felt that Phillip had changed.
It seemed like he was just treating her as a stranger.
When she realized this, Ann felt a slight pain in her heart. But there was nothing she could do.
Wasn't this result she had always wanted?
Ann pursed her lips. She took a step back, not daring to look into Phillip's eyes. She lowered her head and thanked Phillip politely.
"Thank you, Mr. Phillip."
Phillip lowered his head to look at her. His clear black eyes slightly rippled. But it was as if he was trying his best to restrain something. His tone was cold and stiff.
"You're welcome."
When Ann heard his cold words, her long and curly eyelashes trembled slightly. She restrained the sadness and sadness in her heart. She raised her head and was about to say goodbye, but she found that Daisy was already gone.
Her expression changed instantly. She subconsciously looked at Phillip.
"My friend..."
Phillip said indifferently, "Todd sent her back."
Todd?
Ann recalled what Todd looked like and remembered that he was the man who appeared when she went on a blind date.
Todd was completely different from Phillip. His appearance was alluring and he was dressed gorgeously. At a glance, she could tell that Todd was a playboy.
Daisy was drunk. If she fell into Todd's hands...
Ann's heart tightened. She turned to chase after Todd and Daisy.
Phillip grabbed her.
Through the thin fabric, Ann felt the warmth of Phillip's palm. Her body stiffened.
Phillip quickly retracted his hand, his expression cold.
"He is not someone who takes advantage of others. Don't worry. He will not harm Daisy."
Ann was still worried.
She did not think that Phillip would lie to her. But Daisy was drunk and was extremely outstanding. She didn't believe that Todd could not control himself.
"If you are still worried, I can ask someone to send you there now."
Ann quickly refused, "No need, I can take a taxi."
With that, Ann turned and left the bar.
Phillip stood still, looking at Ann's back as she left. He frowned.
...
When Ann ran out of the bar and hurriedly stopped a taxi, she suddenly remembered that she didn't know where Todd and Daisy would go.
She frowned and subconsciously took out her phone to ask Phillip, but in the end, she gave up.
She told the driver the address of Daisy.
Ann leaned against the back seat and recalled the various changes Phillip had after he returned.
She pursed her lips. Did something happen during the period of his disappearance?
