Derila was distracted all the way until she got into the car and Daemon bandaged
her wounds, then she came back to her senses.
"Don't pounce when you're in that kind of situation." Daemon chided unhappily, "You
still haven't learned your lesson about Chrono? Why are you so fond of meddling in
things?"
Hearing these words, Derila's heart trembled and she couldn't help but remember
what happened to Chrono and Candice. It had indeed brought her a lot of backlash. She
still had palpitations when she thought of it even now.
In fact, she had been reminding herself not to mind her own business or meddle, but
every time she saw someone's life in danger, she still couldn't help but rush over to
save them.
Just like just now, she hadn't even thought about the intricacies involved.
Marianne cut her pulse in front of her, and as a doctor, she couldn't possibly not see the
death.
"Scared silly?" Daemon pinched Derila's face.
"No……" Derila came back to her senses and asked in confusion, "This girl, did she
like you before?"
"I guess so." Daemon replied indifferently.
"She later married again?" Derila continued to ask, "Is she divorced now?"
"Mm." Daemon nodded, "The president's wife went to Dartan to pick her up not long
ago, she seems to have lost her mind a bit since she came back, it is said that she is
not doing well over there and her love life seems to be complicated."
After a pause, Daemon said, "These are none of your business, don't think too much
about it."
"I thought before that the person who paid off the old king to put me under house arrest
was the president." Derila blurted out, "It doesn't seem to be him!"
"Heh!" Daemon laughed, "So that's what you were thinking about, little thing, I
underestimated you."
"I'm not a fool." Derila gave him a blank look, "I just don't like to be deceitful, but I
know everything, okay? William said that the old king would only associate with people
of the same rank, the three families are not qualified, which means that the only person
who is qualified to associate with him and get involved with you is the president. When
you brought me to the party today, I was observing the people without moving, and
seeing how friendly the president and his wife were to me, I thought you were now so
high that the president was afraid of you. So I wondered if the president wanted to
marry his daughter to you in order to enlist you, and bought the king to trap me in
Danontand, but then I saw his daughter like this and I was disabused of my concerns."
"Hmm." Daemon nodded, "I thought the same as you, I had considered this before and
came here tonight to find out what was going on."
"You thought the same thing I did?" Derila said in a rush, "With Demiurge like this,
even if the President and his wife had the intention to set you up, they wouldn't dare,
right, and judging from their attitude and behaviour today, they shouldn't have that
intention."
"That is indeed the case for now." Daemon didn't say anything more.
"You have reservations about that." Derila didn't understand, "Is there any other
possibility?"
"I just have reservations as a matter of habit." Daemon smiled faintly, "In many things,
you can't see the truth until the end."
"What do you mean?" Derila didn't understand.
"Don't worry about it." Daemon rubbed her hair, "By my side, just be happy and be
yourself, the rest, I will take care of it."
"But I still have a few questions." Derila remembered what Marianne said, "Did Marianne
have anything to do with Penny marrying someone in the first place?"
"Marianne is the president's daughter and has an honourable status, what right does Penny
have to interfere with her marriage?" Daemon asked rhetorically, "Besides, when Marianne
got married, Penny was still studying in M nation, and only came back to attend the
wedding."
"But I heard Marianne say."
"What is right and wrong between women is very complicated, you should not get
involved." Daemon interrupted her, "Also, Penny is not that bad!"
