Chapter 124 - Why Can"t I
Davi and Hinari went straight to Sky Town because Hinari just couldn"t wait to see Haru anymore. And by the time the girl saw Haru, she suddenly broke down.
"Haru… when did you grow this big? Bring back cute little fluffy Haru!" she cried so the boy could only console her.
"Big sis… I can"t just stay a little boy forever. Little Haru is gone so please move on. I wanted to grow fast so I can help you both, okay?"
"Wahhh! Davi!!! When did Haru turned so mature?! No… I still wanted to babysit you a bit longer."
As the girl kept ranting, Haru could only touch his forehead before he gently hugged her. "Big sis, why do I felt like you didn"t grow up at all?"
"Hey! Stop acting like an old man, it pained my heart. You don"t know what the oldies feels seeing a cute baby suddenly turn big in no time. You get it?!"
"Uh… yeah, sorry, sorry."
After that, Hinari spent the day making Davi talk about her and Sei. Davi also told everything to her with the exception of the contract and the rule of not seeing her husband"s face.
Until twilight came and the two finally departed.
And by the time Davi reached the Gray mansion"s front door, she stood there quietly. That moment, she was still thinking about what Hinari told her, however, for some reason, she suddenly felt as though something was off.
She felt like there seemed to be no one inside the house. And when she finally moved her legs to enter, she turned back the moment she heard the sound of an approaching car. The car was speeding like crazy as it approached the house until it screeched to halt pa.s.sed the entrance.
Davi who was a bit stunned looked at the black car that stopped about ten meters away from her. And a second later, her eyes widened when she saw Sei stepped out of the car being supported by Ryou as though he was injured.
That moment, Davi"s heartbeat began to race wildly and she ran down the stairs. However, before she could even reach the road, another car screeched into a halt in front of her, but it didn"t stop her from running towards Sei.
She could see that they just entered a certain large door that the butler once told her was the way to the underground wine cellar. Davi"s mind was blank, and she couldn"t call out him since her voice was stuck. All she wanted that moment was to see him if he"s alright, however, the moment she was about to reach the door, it closed. Davi immediately held the door handle to open it again when suddenly, someone held her wrist to stop her.
Davi raised her head and when she saw it was Mr. Chen, she bit her lip as she stared at him.
"Please, let me in. I want to see him." She said with such a worried-to-death look in her eyes. Causing the disguised Zaki to fell an indescribable sense of guilt as he answered her.
"I"m sorry miss but you can"t go in. You don"t have to worry; he"s fine I a.s.sure you. He"s just having a superficial injury."
"Then why can"t I enter and see him?"
"That… because…"
"Is it because I"ll see his face if I go in?"
The moment Mr. Chen nodded, Davi clenched her fist as tight as she could before she finally let go of the door handle.
"I understand." She said as she backs off while the disguised Zaki was being extremely troubled. It was because Davi looks like she"s at the verge of crying. And Zaki could tell just how hurt she was.
