Chapter 362 Daniel Also Arrived

Almost instantly, before I even exited the interface, someone had liked it. I was a bit surprised, thinking

someone had accidentally clicked it. I scrolled up to check, it was Walter.

When would this person… ever check their social circle?

I remember he seemed to not really like browsing the Moments, I used to see him always blocking it,

how come he liked it instantly now?

Though it was strange, I didn’t gossip enough to purposely ask.

Thad been fussing around all day, truly tired.

Not long after I lay in bed, I fell asleep.

The next day.

I went to bed early, so naturally, I woke up early as well. As I got up and pulled back the curtains, the

warm sunlight streamed through the window and filled the room. Instantly, I felt exceptionally good.

When I arrived yesterday, it was already dark. Now, in daylight, the sky outside is not foggy like in River

City. The sky here is blue, an endless kind of blue. Compared to the dead trees and fallen leaves all

over River City, this place seems like another world, with shady green trees and rampant flowers.

Indeed, each city had its own unique scenery.

After standing by the window in a daze for a while, I went downstairs. to prepare breakfast.

The old lady was feeling lonely, I happened to run into her and Emma at the restaurant. Seeing me,

she waved with a smile and invited me to join them, to which I responded with a smile.

After sitting down, she asked me a few questions, mostly about how well I slept last night and where I

might want to go for a walk later.

I was unfamiliar with this area, but Emma suggested that we could go to the botanical garden. In this

season, most cities were in decline, but Springbury was different. It was humid and hot all year round,

with rampant vegetation, never distinguishing between spring, summer, autumn, and winter.

I had no objections, and the old lady also agreed.

Not long after, the two brothers from the Hinton family also arrived. Walter looked well, presumably he

had a good night’s sleep the night before. On the contrary, William had dark circles under his eyes,

indicating that he didn’t sleep well.

Seeing me, his expression stiffened slightly, he nodded subtly in greeting, and I responded with a faint

smile.

Without saying much, he unconsciously looked towards Emma. Emma was busy peeling shrimp for

Hermosa and didn’t even look up at William.

Judging by the situation, it seemed that something had happened between the two last night.

“Do you want to eat shrimp?” Walter asked in my ear, his gaze sweeping over the shrimp in Hermosa’s

bowl that I had been staring at absentmindedly.

I was taken aback and before I could say no, a peeled shrimp was already placed in the plate in front of

me. Perhaps due to the surprise, for a moment, everyone else’s gaze also turned towards us.

I don’t blame others. Walter and I had been married for two years, and we always treated each other

with respect in front of others, never showing any affectionate actions. Of course, it was the same in

private.

At that time, he was peeling shrimp for me, which was clearly somewhat surprising.

However, the members of the Hinton family seemed to have an unspoken understanding. After just one

glance at us, they all withdrew their gazes and quietly continued eating their own food. © NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

I pursed my lips, feeling a bit embarrassed and at a loss for words. All I could do was lower my head

and eat the shrimp that Walter had peeled for me. Walter, it seemed, hadn’t noticed the gazes of others

at all, and continued peeling his shrimp.

After swallowing five shrimps in a row, I was afraid of eating too much and not having room for anything

else. I quickly looked at him and said, “I don’t want to eat shrimp anymore.”

Walter hesitated for a moment, gave a slight nod, and asked, “What would you like to eat?”

I was mute, hadn’t even opened my mouth, when I heard a voice, “Tabatha.”

Was this voice… Daniel?

In my moment of hesitation, I turned towards the sound. Not far away, Daniel, dressed in a white shirt,

was still sitting in his wheelchair. His hair seemed to be deliberately styled, looking very fashionable.

His handsome appearance was different from Walter’s. One was noble and elegant, revealing a strong

determination, while the other was gentle and cool, revealing a charming allure. Both were

extraordinarily handsome, each with their own unique charm.

While I was daydreaming, Daniel had already been pushed by

Sebastian to our side. Most of the Hinton family didn’t know him and were curiously looking at him. He

didn’t seem uncomfortable, instead, he politely greeted everyone. Looking at me, he asked, “Tabatha,

are these all your friends?”

He was asking about the Hinton family.

I nodded, feeling somewhat that the atmosphere was off.

Especially when Walter and Daniel looked at each other.

The temperature in the restaurant seemed to have suddenly dropped a few degrees.

After all, the old lady was an elder and seemed not to notice the

hostility between Walter and Daniel. Instead, she kindly invited Daniel to sit down and have breakfast

together.
