Candy looked at the computer screen prompting for a password, her fingers gliding over the keyboard.
In just a dozen seconds, the encrypted album was unlocked. As Candy looked at the photos in the album, she couldn’t help but sigh, "So beautiful."
Daisy Grant was about to return to her room when she heard Candy’s exclamation and poked her head into the study, "What are you looking at that’s so beautiful? Candy, are you not going to sleep now?"
Seeing it was Daisy, Candy replied with a smile, "Nothing much, just looking at the photos on Dawn’s computer. I’m shutting it down to sleep now."
As Candy spoke, she indeed shut down the computer and got up.
Daisy’s eyes quietly watched Candy, deeper and deeper, until she finally gave a faint smile and said, "Let’s go rest."
Both of them returned to the master bedroom, and Candy started talking to Daisy about the places she and Dawn Sutherland had visited together in Washington.
Daisy listened quietly, occasionally responding to Candy with a smile, though the smile didn’t reach her eyes.
Perhaps because the day had been quite exciting, as Candy talked, she gradually fell silent and drifted into sleep.
Daisy gently turned her head to look at the sleeping Candy, pressing her lips together, a trace of sadness in her eyes.
"So C.Y is you, your na’s first and last initials. So you are the one my brother has hidden in his heart."
"You saved my brother in Washington, and because of that, he goes there every year to see you, but never contacts ."
"Only you understand my brother, only you know the password to the encrypted album on his computer, only you have reached my brother’s heart, knowing what the password is."
"In City C, my brother misses you, which is why there are hundreds of unsent ssages in his phone."
"Because he loves you, my brother went all out to establish C.Y, nad after you..."
"The one I love has always had you living in their heart."
Under the covers that night, even though she was wrapped in a blanket, Daisy felt a surge of coldness.
The brother she loved for more than a decade had his heart set on soone else.
————
In the past few days, Daisy had been staying with Candy in the apartnt, not returning to the Grant Family.
Dawn Sutherland missed Daisy. In the afternoon, after tidying up the docunts on the desk, Dawn got up to hand them to his busy secretary Sam Brown outside, only to see Sam examining an object in his hand.
"A shell—" Dawn remarked in surprise, looking at the object in Sam’s hand.
"President Sutherland!" Sam stood up, feeling unfortunate to have been caught daydreaming at work by his boss!
Sam looked nervously at Dawn.
Dawn’s gaze remained on the object in Sam’s hand, and he asked with a faint smile, "Where did you buy this shell?"
Sam hadn’t expected Dawn to be completely focused on the item in his hand and quickly replied, "My girlfriend asked to buy it for her. She said she wanted a natural shell. I found this colorful shell at a shop in City C that sells natural pearls and shells."
Dawn’s eyes shifted slightly, "Do they have purple shells there?"
"I wasn’t sure about that," Sam replied, "Does President Sutherland want one too?"
Dawn paused, a slight smile appearing at the corner of his mouth, "No, just soone likes it, so I wanted to buy it as a gift for her."
Seeing the exceptionally gentle smile on his boss’s face, Sam imdiately knew who Dawn was referring to.
"President Sutherland, let give you the address of the shell shop. I didn’t notice if there were any purple shells, you could take a look?"
Dawn nodded, "Alright."
Taking the address Sam provided, Dawn tossed a stack of docunts to Sam and strode out of the company.
anwhile, Evalian Chapman, who had been busy with work, happened to stand up and approach Sam to hand in so materials, casually asking, "Why did President Sutherland leave work so early today?"
