By the time it was finally over, Elaine was drenched in sweat and went to take another shower. Her hair, which had
been wrapped in a dry cap, was largely dry and already slightly moisturized, and Elaine had wanted to be lazy and
just sleep, but was pulled back by Darnell again.
He said, "Blow dry your hair before you go to sleep."
She whispered and pouted, "But I'm so sleepy."
Darnell took out his hairdryer: "I'll blow you."
Elaine immediately sat obediently in the sofa with a smile on her face.
Darnell sat behind her, powered up the hair dryer, then lifted a strand of her hair and blew on it delicately.
His movements were gentle, not pulling a single hair on her head at all.
Elaine felt like she wanted to soul-cake for a moment, if only he could help him blow-dry his hair every time.
Just as she was getting sleepy thinking about it, Darnell's voice rang out, "Something tomorrow?"
Elaine yawned, her voice a little tired: "I'm going to dinner with Aaron tonight."
"Except for this."
Elaine struggled to think: "There doesn't seem to be any eh, but Aaron was just asking about tomorrow's schedule
...... By the way, I haven't gotten back to him yet."
She thought about this and hurriedly stood up to get her phone.
This was followed by a few subtle wisps of pain in the top of the head.
Elaine: "......"

He sank his voice: "Sit down."
Elaine immediately sat down in the couch again.
Elaine couldn't help but gently rub the spot where her hair had been torn, and Darnell turned off the hair dryer and
placed his palm over the back of her hand: "Does it hurt?"
"A little bit."
She could feel that several were ripped off at the same time.
Darnell picked up the blow dryer again, "Tell him you're not available tomorrow."
Elaine's brain is now weng weng, and did not ask Darnell carefully if something was wrong or what, vaguely
responded, fished the strand of hair from the sofa, some regret.
Darnell said, "Don't worry, there's plenty more."
Elaine: "......"
A few more, she will have the risk of baldness, OK.
After a while, the pain slowly disappeared and the drowsiness returned, so much so that she didn't pay much
attention to what Darnell said to her later, but just responded in a daze.
Immediately after, her head lolled back against the back of the sofa and she fell asleep.
Darnell put away the hairdryer and set it aside, bent her over the bed and gently rubbed the back of her head.
Elaine mewled in comfort and burrowed into his arms.
Darnell's eyebrows jumped and he turned to turn off the lights and control her hands and feet so she would stop
moving around before closing his eyes.
......
The next morning, Elaine slept through the night.
I don't know if it was yesterday's massage, or the evening soak, or ...... the reason for the sweat, she now feels
refreshed throughout.
She picked up her phone and looked at the time, it was not yet ten o'clock.
Elaine lifted the covers and got out of bed, while clicking on the top of the message Aaron didn't reply to yesterday,
sending him a voice: "Sorry, I'm a bit busy today eh, tomorrow. It's a good thing I'm planning my trip for tomorrow
today, I can't just wander around like last time."
After a long time, Aaron did not reply to her.
Elaine washed up and went back downstairs to eat when the maid told her, "Miss James, Master of Riverside said
he'd be back to pick you up at noon and that the clothes for you were already upstairs."
Elaine hugged the cake and responded, "Did he say what it was about?"
"This Master of Riverside didn't say."
"All right then."
Elaine put the cake on the chair next to her and sat down, ate her breakfast and went upstairs to change.
She saw the clothes on the couch that the maid said she was wearing.

Elaine picked it up and looked at it. It was a beautiful white dress.
After changing the dress on, a beautiful makeup was put on to match this dress.
Elaine looked at herself inside the mirror and rubbed her face, her crooked eyes filled with a bright smile.
If she was right, she should be going on a date today.
By noon, Darnell had indeed returned.
Elaine happily stepped forward and put her arms around him, "I'm ready, let's go."
Sitting in the car, Elaine looked out at the scenery and tapped her toes on the ground: "Where are we going?"
"Civil Service."
Elaine: "?"
She was curious, "Which Civil Affairs Bureau is it? Is there anything interesting around it?"
Darnell gazed at her and suddenly laughed: "Which civil office do you want to go to."
"I ......"
As soon as she opened her mouth, Elaine suddenly realized something and her eyes widened slightly: "It can't be
......"
Darnell took her hand in his and whispered, "Elaine, I didn't have time to prepare a formal proposal for you, so if
you refuse, I can accept it."
Elaine didn't react, but when she heard the word "reject", she immediately said, "I don't want to reject, obviously
you rejected me two years ago ...... but you rejected me once, I rejected you once, so it seems fair ...... It seems
only fair ...... No, no, it can not be counted that way, I should ......"
Her mind is so confused right now that she has no idea what she's talking about.
While still in a state of confusion, Darnell had placed a ring on her hand, bent his head and kissed her hand gently,
and spoke slowly: "Elaine, I'm lucky to be spending the rest of my life with you."
