He Talks Nonsense

Everly was so tired last night that she leaned against the window of the children's room and fell asleep. When Edmond got up in the morning, he woke her up. Only then did Everly realize that she had slept like this all night.

"Mom, did you quarrel with dad again?" Edmond's words made Everly embarrassed.

Everly rubbed her stiff neck and ruffled Edmond's hair. She asked, "Do I often quarrel with others?"

Edmond blinked. Although he did not say anything, Everly could tell his thoughts from his eyes.

She found it unbelievable.

When did Edmond take Maverick's side?

Everly was puzzled. After a while, she explained, "There was a storm last night. I was worried about you and Candy. I went to see if Candy was all right. Then, I came to you. I was exhausted, so I fell asleep by accident."

"Wasn't dad home? Where did he go? Wasn't he worried about us?" Edmond nodded and asked.

Everly had no idea how to answer him.
