“Open the door! What’s with you? Why are you causing a ruckus in the middle of the night?” Getting down to business, Agnes knocked on the door and raised her voice. Disoriented from alcohol, Buffy could not understand why she heard knocking. Still, she stumbled to her feet and plodded toward the door. Standing behind her mother, Darcy looked nervously at the door. She had no idea who would answer the door since Kaze and Dwight were living together. However, apparently, there was another girl in the apartment, and she did not know who the woman inside was involved with. Agnes folded her arms and waited. For all she knew, the person inside could be too scared to open the door, so she impatiently knocked on the door again. “Now you’re scared, huh? Open up and explain yourself! What’s with the yelling late at night?” Agnes asserted her authority, ready to make the girl pay for the late-night fuss. The matter was far from over. “Maybe we should forget it, Mom,” Darcy persuaded

“Mr. Lee, Mr. Witterson sent me.” The caregiver was relatively young, possibly in her forties or fifties. She gave off a competent and sharp vibe. “I’ll leave her to you. She’s drunk, and she threw up everywhere. Do you mind getting her changed and giving her a wipe-down?” Kaze was pleased with Edmund’s selection. The caregiver had also brought a fresh change of clothes. “It’s no trouble at all. Just say the word. Is there anything else you need?” The caregiver was a professional, and it showed in her response. She put on her gloves and got down to business. “If you can tidy up the living room, do that. That’s everything. Please look after her. I’m stepping out for a bit.” Kaze did not want to stick around. Agnes’ condemnation was quite a wake-up call that his decision to bring Buffy back was wrong. He thought he was saving himself the trouble and preventing any misunderstandings. In retrospect, he did not do any of that. “Alright, Mr. Lee. The lady here will be spi

“Those who don’t get you will never compliment you. People who understand you will care about what you think and find ways to commend you. Sometimes, you shouldn’t push for recognition. The ones holding back on the compliments are just jealous. They don’t want you to succeed.” Kaze understood where Darcy was coming from. Darcy was silent for a reason. At times, she preferred to keep her mouth shut as there was simply no one to confide in. “You’re right. They’re just jealous. They hold me down to stop me from growing.” Darcy laughed cheerfully. The validation was testament to her years of hard work. Despite the lingering worries, she found her resolve. “That’s right. No matter what, you shouldn’t give up. Just stick to your path. You know you’re in the right hands because you chose this for yourself. Even if you take a wrong turn, there are second chances. Don’t hesitate. Just do what’s right for you.” Kaze looked at Darcy sternly, giving her the most direct support. “You al

Darcy got out of the car and went a little crazy on retail therapy. She bought ready-to-eat items and refrigerated goods that could serve as breakfast after heating them in the microwave. Though she did not typically consume those food items, she needed to fill her fridge, or her mother would have something to talk about. Tomorrow, she would get a maid to sort out Agnes’ daily needs, or it would be hard for Darcy to concentrate on work when Agnes was displeased. It was no surprise that Agnes’ visit would bring a lot of issues. However, Darcy did not anticipate the extent of trouble. Just the thought of it gave her a headache.Darcy brought the groceries home to find that her mother had retreated to her room. Despite her issues with the place, Agnes settled in nicely. After cleaning herself up, Darcy headed straight to bed. It had been a tiring day of dealing with people. It was a real pain. Come to think of it, she was exhausted and stressed. When her mind flew to Kaze, she

“Do you know Kaze?” Dwight asked seriously. It would not make sense if Kaze and the woman were strangers. Maybe Kaze took the drunk woman home out of kindness, but it would explain things if they had some history. “I know him. Did he take me here?” The realization eased Buffy’s frustration. “That’s right. You were totally wasted last night, so Mr. Lee took you here. You reeked of booze. You were out of it, too.” Dwight recalled the state of the woman last night, and it was bad. “That reminds me. Where were you drinking last night? How did you end up like that? If Mr. Lee hadn’t brought you here, you could’ve been in grave danger,” Dwight uttered curiously. A beautiful woman like Buffy should never put herself in a vulnerable position. “It’s none of your business. That’s my concern.” Now that last night’s incident was coming together, Buffy felt relieved. She did not mind Kaze taking her to the apartment and changing her out of her clothes. In fact, it was good news. May
