Chapter 28: A Second-Time Mate

Benson Walton's POV:

Even someone as insensitive as Daniel realized that the atmosphere was not right. He quickly came over to smooth things over. "Okay, okay, today is such a happy day. Let's put aside our sorrows and continue to look forward!"

Although his words didn't give any comfort, at least he gave me a chance to change the topic smoothly.

"Yes, I didn't expect Daniel to find a mate first. Remember to toast at the dinner party later, lucky boy!" I pretended to be relaxed and teased.

"That's right. You've won the heart of such a beautiful lady. I'm so jealous. Go and show off."

Daniel scratched his head and giggled. There seemed to be a thread connecting the couple, and they hugged each other as if no matter how dangerous the situation was, they could easily overcome it.
