CHAPTER 356: CHAPTER 356: STRANGE EMOTIONS

Damian Knight nodded coldly and said, "Then let’s go pay respects to your sister."

Summer Monroe understood and after setting aside the things Damian brought, she led him to the back garden.

Fortunately, Henry Stanton had to leave temporarily, so they didn’t need to disguise themselves. After sending away the servants, the two quickly arrived at the servant quarters.

Inside the room, Cece was drinking hot water.

Hearing the noise, she immediately looked towards the door.

The handsome man at the door strode in, Cece’s eyes lit up, and she instantly wanted to get out of bed.

"Stay lying down!" Damian Knight walked over in a few steps and pressed down on Cece’s shoulder as she was about to get up.

However, Cece felt it was impolite and insisted on getting up.

Damian Knight had no choice but to grab a pillow and let Cece sit up.

As soon as Cece opened her mouth, before she could speak, tears fell.

"I’m sorry, Master..." Cece choked, "I couldn’t protect them."

Even though she is a girl, her abilities far surpass the other three. In her view, protecting the other three is her responsibility.

Damian Knight shook his head, "It’s not your fault. My people are also looking for Bella; he’s a smart boy. I believe he won’t get into trouble."

Cece nodded, but tears still uncontrollably fell, she kept murmuring, "It’s all my fault."

"Katherine." Damian Knight repeated sternly, "I said, it’s not your fault."

"No..." Cece shook her head vigorously, "It’s all my fault! I should have at least pulled Bella out... He’s so young, I should pay with my life!"

"Shut up!" Damian Knight said with a dark face, "Your life is mine. Without my permission, you are not allowed to speak such nonsense again!"

Cece reflexively fell silent.

Damian Knight sighed, softened his tone, and said, "Did you hear me? Your life cannot be taken by anyone except me, including yourself!"

Cece nodded and wiped her tears forcefully.

Summer Monroe watched this scene, feeling an indescribable sensation in her heart.

For some reason, she suddenly felt an inexplicable discomfort in her heart.

She simply called Leah Lowell, and the two quietly exited the room, leaving space for Damian Knight and Cece.

After leaving the room, Summer Monroe looked up at the sky, a rare confusion appearing on her face.

What was... happening to her?

She didn’t know how long it had been, maybe a long time, maybe just a dozen minutes, when the door behind Summer Monroe was opened by Damian Knight.

She instinctively turned her head, only to hear Damian Knight ask, "Why are you waiting at the door? I thought you went to work."

Summer Monroe shook her head, "There’s nothing to do for now. How is Cece? Has she calmed down?"

Damian Knight murmured a response and said, "I’ll take her to Isaac Ross’s hospital later, so it won’t trouble you here."

Hearing the word "trouble," Summer Monroe’s eyes blinked in astonishment.

When did Damian Knight become so formal with her?

But Summer Monroe soon mocked herself: they’ve known each other for less than two months anyway, technically just slightly more than ordinary acquaintances.

But speaking of familiarity, she really isn’t very familiar with Damian Knight.

She even only knows Damian Knight’s sole hobby: dumplings.

Summer Monroe lowered her eyes, feeling an inexplicable frustration.

After a silent two seconds, she suddenly looked up, with a smile she said, "It’s fine, you take her there. The hospital is more convenient than here, get treated early, discharge early, her wound shouldn’t get infected again."

As Summer Monroe said this, Cece happened to call out to Damian Knight.

Damian Knight didn’t notice the complex emotions that briefly flashed in Summer’s eyes. He turned his head in response to Cece, then looked at Summer Monroe again and said, "I’ll go in first to check."
