"Hmm." Layla admonished, "The Foundation has to pick carefully, no sloppiness, and
this time we're going together, so take care of yourself while we're away."
"Okay, I know." The big-hearted Derila didn't think much about it at all, "So when
are you guys coming back?"
"Can't say right now." Layla said evasively, "We have to take on a dozen foundations
this time and it will take some time."
"Okay." Derila nodded, "Anyway, there's nothing going on here at the orphanage
now, and Lacy's health is much better, so you guys don't need to worry."
"Derila!" ayla had a lot to say, but at even this point, she didn't know where to start,
so she had to say instead, "Remember to call Daemon tomorrow and communicate
properly."
"No more calls, it's already fallen out." Derila told Layla what had happened tonight,
and finally added, "He's really unbelievable, before I could explain, he lost his temper
and hung up on me, I'm so angry!"
"Haven't you been like that before?" Layla asked her rhetorically, "Heard a woman's
voice on the phone, cursed him out without saying a word, then hung up and flew
straight back to S Nation from Aymo City, you had that temper, more than the other, ever!"
Derila was speechless.
"Now you know what it's like to be wronged, don't you?" Layla laughed, "You know you
and that William were just having a lotus seed soup and chatting together, you think it's
bright and open, but how do you know that other people Daemon and that what's-her-
name girl are not bright and open?"
"That's different, that Penny likes him and wants to marry him." Derila hurriedly
explained.
"How do you know William doesn't like you?" Layla asked rhetorically, "If he doesn't like
you, he will send you lotus seed soup in the middle of the night? Make you snacks and
pick flowers by hand every day?"
Derila was rendered speechless by Layla's dislike.
"Ah Derila, you can't be such a double standard." Auntie criticised, "Think carefully,
if Daemon really had something with that woman, why would he need to answer the
phone? He could have just explained afterwards that he was busy and didn't hear you.
A man, if he really has the intention to cheat, simply won't let you find out so easily, you
can find out so easily, either by misunderstanding or by falling into someone else's trap,
just like this incident of yours tonight."
"What do you mean?" Derila froze for a moment and immediately comprehended,
"Auntie, are you saying that Penny is deliberately creating a misunderstanding to make
me angry? Also, you think William is also…."
"These are my speculations, I can't be sure." Auntie said, "But you should put your heart
in the right place and think differently. You can misunderstand Daemon and hang up
his phone, why shouldn't people misunderstand you and hang up your phone?"
Derila was speechless.
"You two are both in love for the first time, not much experience, so many times it
seems very childish, but if you want to be together, you should cherish it, any conflicts
and misunderstandings should be communicated even, do not accumulate."
Layla was still reasoning with Derila.
Derila listened attentively, but after a while there was no movement.
"Derila, Derila, …"
Layla reached out and shook her hand in Derila's face and found that she had
fallen asleep, so she couldn't help but sigh, "This child, heartless!"
At this moment, where did Derila know that this was Layla's parting words of
advice.
She thought that they would only be away for a few days and then they would come
back, ten days and a half months even if it was long, just like usual.
But she did not expect that this farewell would be for years.
