The Disolate Scion I forget
The car fell into a momentary silence before Daphne's voice pierced the quiet, her tone now more mysterious than before, a subtle smile gracing her lips as she began, "I remember, back then..." Zak anticipated her words. It was widely known that he had once pursued Daphne unsuccessfully, a fact acknowledged by both of them. Zak couldn't help but find the situation ridiculous. Could he have truly left such an impression on Daphne that, even after all these years and despite her being married, he couldn't shake her from his mind? Zak chuckled before interjecting, "Daphne, what are you trying to say?" Daphne's voice trailed off. "I simply acted out of a sense of duty, giving you a ride home. Do you honestly believe I still have feelings for you? Please don't misunderstand; I would extend the same courtesy to a stranger in need." Zak said. Daphne struggled to find her words, prompting Zak to add, "I've long moved on from the uncertainties of my youth." When coupled with the word "you
The Disolate Scion What was her purpose?
"Zakky, I think I have a fever..." Daphne's voice trembled weakly over the phone, even softer than last week's drunken call. Despite the distance, Zak could feel her discomfort. His brow furrowed, showing no concern, only indifference as he lowered his voice. "Why call me if you're feeling unwell?" "There's no one else..." "What about your husband?" "I don't have a husband..." Not because her husband's not around, but because she doesn't have a husband. Divorced? Daphne's breaths came in labored gasps, each word a struggle. Zak remained silent for a moment before replying, "If you're really unwell, call 911. Why reach out to me? Or do you want me to call for you?" Daphne had been popular back in Utah, surrounded by friends. So why turn to him now? A hint of irritation prickled within Zak. Didn't Daphne understand? Did she think that after seven years, she could just come back into his life as if nothing had changed? No response came through the phone, only the heavy rhythm o
The Disolate Scion Where is your husband?
Daphne's mind floated back to the scene of Zak's departure seven years ago, her heart tore painfully, as if a thousand ants plopped down from the soles of her feet and gnawed at her heart, she gasped heavily in pain, her eyes, which were already burnt red, became even redder, she lifted up the quilt, put on her slippers and chased after him out the door, she knew that she couldn't be left alone in that dead house, there was no way that she could stand it.Her voice was soft and polite, the teacher above her head kept staring, Zak had to throw the love letter back into the drawer and pretend to listen to Daphne."In fact, I've looked for one, but I resigned within two days, those jobs... are not suitable for me.""I just thought you might not have gone far, and that I might be able to retain you if I came down." Daphne tilted her head sideways, only then seeing Zak's car parked off to the side, chagrined that she should have realised sooner and not...She obeyed and didn't move, only f
The Disolate Scion He was on a date
"How about giving it to you in advance today and eating it might put you in a better mood?"Daphne was quick to send her a kitten surprise emoji.Aliza is a day and night nothing to do with the big idle people, people like good connections, and know her very well as a person, quickly agreed to help her find a reliable person to come, and specifically for that person to do "Zak assistant special training".Zak chooses not to reply, does not need to explain too much, what to go for is none of Daphne's business.Saying that, Zak handed out another gift that he had apologized for not replying to her messages because he had left her hanging for two days.It's Daphne.Aliza deliberately lowered her voice, but still couldn't hide her excitement, "Zakky, guess who I met?" "Who?"Zak had been drinking some too, and wondered if it was her brain that was confused.[Has Zakky been busy lately? It's okay if I wait a little longer, as long as I wait.]] It was true that Zak didn't pass her friend re
The Disolate Scion Send me the address
Daphne was sitting next to him, obviously a little distance away at first, but now she was sitting so close that their thighs were if anything pressed together, and Daphne's sheepish voice rang through the compartment, "Zakky smells like alcohol, have you been drinking? Must be sleepy, you can close your eyes and sleep for a while, I'll call you when we get there."Daphne stood in front of her, meek without a hint of temper, mumbling some cute words to coax her, trying to slowly melt the ice in Zak's heart."Zakky, we're here."Zak had always been like that, with a slight cleanliness fetish, but those cleanliness fetishes of hers never worked on herself seven years ago.Had Daphne done something too intimate with her in the car?In fact, Zak had thought about Daphne's reason for sitting alone by the river on the way here, she hadn't thought that Daphne had come here to stay because she had dragged herself into the night in order to personally deliver her clothes and didn't dare to go
The Disolate Scion Inside
Will let a person have a kind of, want to private collection of desire.Certain thoughts kept taking root in her mind once they occurred to her, and Zak lowered her eyes and edited a text message to the same cell phone number she'd just called.They want everyone to know that they are back together?"There must be a limit, each person can only make one phone call, and the person who comes to pick up can't be a family member, or the family's driver's assistant or something, or else it won't be interesting.""That's funny, but my boyfriend is already downstairs and will be coming up to pick me up soon, so I'll just have to wait for your good news in the group."But a moment later, when he thought about the fact that she would have to pretend to be a couple with someone even if she didn't want to, Zak wasn't in such a good mood again.It was also winter, Utah First High School had just finished the last exam and hadn't even finished the class meeting for the holidays, so some people in t
The Disolate Scion Favorite person
Zak immediately bit her inner lip, and her other hand, which was hanging down by her pants leg, couldn't help but clench."Thank you doctor."Her heart was like a drum.Zak was also concerned, Daphne was in tears from the pain, looking at her and complaining to her, "It hurts..." But she didn't even bother to pinch her hand hard enough for it to hurt so much.All the initiative was in Daphne's hands now, and she was at her mercy.Zak wanted to say yes, but before he could, a sudden cry of pain came from not far behind him.Daphne ate the pain and said, "I think I knocked my knee."Her palms didn't used to sweat... Now it's only been a few moments and it's already all sweaty, right?She's already been bullied and stamped on by her anyway.Zak said no.After class the class will soon become less crowded, she now doesn't quite know how to get along with Daphne alone, Zak packed up her things and put on her cross-body bag, Daphne is still writing something in her position, Zak didn't both
The Disolate Scion Upset
"I was all intimidated by you then, you suddenly had to change seats..." Daphne's tone hid a grudge."I'm afraid I forced you."Zak looked at her for a while, she hadn't woken up yet, Zak lifted the covers and got up, her feet just landed on the ground and the person noticed, bracing herself for sleepiness and opened her eyes, softly calling out his name, "Zakky...."At that, Zak looked at her anew, hope seeming to flare up in his eyes.How could you be forcing me when I like you, Zak replied mentally.More and more, Daphne is so cute."Oh~ so." Daphne's tone was visibly pleasant, "I so wish Adkins had told her himself."There were no words for quite a while, but finally Daphne spoke up, "Are you sure you don't want to sit with me anymore?" Of course it wasn't not wanting to."I'm sorry, I'm... a little out of sorts right now, a little out of sorts, a little more messed up... I guess I need time to respond to you."What'
