I Promise I Won't Hurt You

Neil Mo was feeling slightly awkward after the conversation with his mother that he was unable to look at Edith straight as they walked on the street to the store.

Although he was famous for his aloof expression, Neil can be shy at certain matters. Therefore, he was quiet throughout their walk. It was not until he heard her voice announcing that they have arrived that he snapped out of his trance. 

Seeing the casual look on her face, Neil was relieved and embarrassed at the same time. 

As Edith went into the shop, Neil decided to wait for her outside as he did not want to feel awkward when he watched her pick out some stuff for his mother. 

Just as Edith entered the store, the phone in his pocket rang and Neil picked up the call from Assistant Shawn. There was a potential business deal with a well-known company in Country T and Assistant Shawn needed to check with him before he submitted the final report.

"STOP!"
