Her faint sweet body fragrance mixed with the aroma of the food made Sanford at peace.
Maggie felt the sudden change in his mood when he heard him sigh.
When she looked at Sanford, she couldn’t help but remember Jaelyn.

Her eyes were filled with worry. Seeing this, Sanford held her face.
“Maggie, I hate deception. So, I’d appreciate it if you don’t lie to me in the future.”

“I won’t lie to you. I promise.”
“No matter what happens in the future, you have to discuss it with me first. Don’t make hasty decisions

“Yes, I will listen to you.”
Maggie let out a sigh of relief and cheerfully took Sanford to the sink to make him wash his hands.

“Sanford, why is your hand hurt?”
Sanford was secretly overjoyed to see the worry and anxiety on Maggie’s face.
He felt warm in his heart, knowing how she deeply cared for him.

“But your hand is swollen. How could it be okay?”
Maggie frowned and turned around.
“Wait a minute. I’m going to get the medicine box.”

Staring at her brightly-lit eyes, Sanford felt a lot of ripples in his heart.
