Lily bit her lip and stared at the Worship of Crystal before she gently said, “Mom, don’t worry.”
Truth be told, Lily was very unwilling to sell the pair of shoes because every time she saw them she would think about Darryl. How he used to protect her, take great care of her, and about every single moment she spent with Darryl.
She was extremely unwilling to sell it off, but had no choice!
On the other side, Carter Mansion.
Darryl, Debra, and Sara just came back from the exhibition.
Once they entered the courtyard, a maidservant quickly approached them and excitedly exclaimed, “Jewel is awake!”
‘She is?!’ Darryl was elated and suddenly quickened his steps to head toward Jewel’s resting place.
“Jewel has awakened! That’s great!“ Sara quickly followed along and was overjoyed as well.
Even though she had not spent much time with Jewel, they were alike in character—both were adorable and smart. Sara treated Jewel like her own younger sister.
“Woo!” Debra let out a sigh of relief. Her eyes were brimming with hope while being relieved at the same time.
The perpetrator’s identity would come to light once Jewel woke up. Until this day, Debra still believed that she had not seen wrongly on that night. The person that harmed Jewel was none other than Yvonne Young.
She quickened her steps and followed suit as well with that thought in mind.
The moment they arrived at the room, Jewel was lying in bed in good spirit but her face was still a little pale.
“Jewel!” Darryl excitedly walked over and sat beside her bed before tightly holding Jewel’s hand. “You’re finally awake!”
Darryl had not slept well for the past few days from being worried sick for Jewel.
Jewel forced a smile and feebly said, “Mister, I thought I’d died and won’t be able to serve you in the future!”
‘Silly girl. She’s so badly injured, yet still thinks about serving me.’ Darryl was heartbroken and touched at the same time before patting her head. “Don’t say such silly things. It’s my fault that I didn’t protect you. Don’t worry. I won’t allow you to be hurt anymore.”
Darryl then let out a sigh of relief before seriously saying, “That’s right. Jewel, who ‘s the person who hit you the other day? Is it a stranger or someone you know?”
