As I turned to leave, I hoped to see even a flicker of emotion in Evelina's eyes.
Even if just for a moment, at least to prove she still cared about me.
But unfortunately, there was nothing. She completely ignored me the whole time.
It wasn't until I had driven away from the mansion that she finally set her daughter down and said with a smile, "Daisy, the bad guy is gone now."
"Yeah! Mom, you're so awesome!" Daisy exclaimed excitedly.
Damien came over and put his arm around Evelina's shoulders, comforting her: "Don't worry, Mr. Stratton will understand you sooner or later."
Evelina was still uneasy and was about to go out to find me to explain, when Daisy grabbed her right hand.
As she pulled her back, she said urgently: "Mom, where are you going? You promised to play with me and brother today!"
Unable to resist, Evelina had to give up the idea of chasing after me.
As for me at this moment, I had already driven away.
With no lingering attachment whatsoever.
