When Daisy saw the girl holding a bag of presents in her hand and having a smile on her face, she had to let her in out of politeness, no matter how much she disliked the girl.
"Mark asked me to bring you this present, Mrs. Hart. H e was concerned when he saw you lost a lot of weight." The girl smiled and put the present aside.
Just then, Summer came out of the bathroom and saw the girl, her brows upturning with surprise. But when she looked around, he did not see Mark.
The girl had noticed her behavior and quickly explained, "Mark has gone to see Harry to collect some documents. He will be here in a while."
'Very observant.' Summer thought, her mouth twitching, and she nodded to the girl. "Would you like coffee or tea?"
"No, thank you." The girl was well-mannered, and Summer could see that she was a little nervous.
While they were talking, Mark arrived with a present for Charlotte. He said hello to Daisy and then looked at the girl. "We will head back to the apartment tonight, and Harry will bring you over tomorrow morning."
The girl nodded obediently and shoved a handful of
candy into Charlotte's hands.
"Excuse me." Mark nodded with an indescribable sense of distantness and indifference.
Summer remembered that when she saw Mark for the first time, his expression looked exactly like this: cold, without the slightest temperature. Summer felt horrible inside when she saw the two leaving together.
Hearing the girl mention Harry and him mention the apartment almost tore her heart apart. But since she had to act in front of Daisy, she might as well make it look more realistic.
The longer Daisy looked at the girl, the more she disliked her. She got even angrier when she looked at Mark.
