Even if you want me to take care of your mistress after she gives birth, I won't complain."Daphne herself knew very well that compared to finding a more suitable marriage partner, she had very little to offer Lesley.Yet Lesley was still moved by her honesty and agreed.Not long after their engagement, Daphne fulfilled the promise she had once made to him.She died after taking a bullet meant for Lesley.That was the entire story between Lesley and Daphne.There was no dramatic, earth-shattering love story between them.

    Wendy hesitated for a moment before asking, "Did you love her very much?"The corner of Lesley's lips curved into a self-deprecating smile."Before everything happened, I could only say that I didn't dislike her.
