Thus, Daphne dials Stairmount's number.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ43HzRtpHlF
First call. No answer. Second call. Still, no answer.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJCBLJRJiNA
So, the negative thought is correct?193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZRJmg8cR11
Third call. Still, no answer. Daphne starts to lower the grip on her hand which is holding the minipad.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDLalyyMG6M
Fourth call. It is still the same.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN6ooDEZ2ay
Alright then... forget him. I indeed have to trust Paynet. He is indeed cruel and heartless. Besides, he must have found another woman. Forget him, Daphne!193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIbvh8ix56a
Daphne moves her fingers, ready to end the call.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUjShES7zAQ
"Hello."193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSMAxG1gt7e
Daphne feels as if her heart has stopped beating. It is Stairmount's voice. Stairmount has picked up her call!

In her haste, she puts the minipad closer to her lips. But as she opens her mouth, her voice can't even come out.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJ7GFEnBIG
"Hello, Daphne Darling? Can you hear me?"193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu3ZW0u2oHs
Ah... that voice. That voice which is always able to thrill and melt her heart. "Stairmount..." Finally she can move her tongue again.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwlbIJXUr2g
"Yes, Daphne. You are free right now?"193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvsrl4E8bpo
Stairmount's voice remains unchanged. As if nothing has ever happened, even though they have been out of touch for a week. A week, which is like a year for her, and how severe it has shocked her life. However, Stairmount is still acting like nothing has ever happened.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvjFlMOUtPk
"Stairmount... you... how are you going?..." Daphne must exert her effort just to move her paralyzed tongue. No, I can't lose to that negativity. I have to make everything confirmed!193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCclTUSCakL
"I'm fine. Well, I've been a bit busy lately... you know. They indeed deliberately blow up the news about me. It really makes me so tired... but I can still handle it. How about you? Are you alright? How is your Mom?"193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjgCka8QYz1
Daphne curves a slight smile. Look, how can a heartless and cold-blooded person care for a middle-aged woman who is useless to him? "I am fine... Mom is also fine..."193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWLbcA9jJaI
"I am happy to hear that. I can take a breath of relief."193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuaptqalola
"It's just... I miss Dad recently..."193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuQTJDQ9UoV
Yes, I have to make everything clear!193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRsxyZnL0Dz
"You miss your father?"193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHbEfLQ7twr
"Yes... You know? Actually, you remind me of Dad... Because you have the similarity with him. He... also worked at Mist Laboratory..."193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOOnN25vZpR
"Oh, really?"193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoPSNvsmHMR
"That's right... He also... worked as a researcher... same with you..."193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLSdH3OzBf9
"Really? Does it mean, we are in the same work area?"193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvkr5fWlD38
"That's right... So... I think, you must know him..."193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZGdU8kKE7f
"Ah! Why didn't you tell me about this earlier? Can you tell me his name? Maybe just like what you said, I know him."193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAYOwr1qdgG
You don't just know him... you have killed him with your hands. Daphne grits her teeth. "His name is... Warren Yalle."193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSnIrz20CCg
For a moment, the atmosphere turns silent. Stairmount falls silent as she mentions her father's name.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8eDG35Df8C
Well, then? He turns silent, which means something wrong has really happened. Daphne Yalle! Just accept this cruel reality sincerely!193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPuztXG60HW
"Stairmount... we will get married, right? We will become husband and wife. You once said, we should know more deeply about our respective personalities. So now, can you tell me everything about you in detail? What actually have you done in the past? Because as your future wife, I must be clear about this matter. Everything about you."193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0HrjQrCdbH
This time, Daphne's voice is clear, calm, and smooth. Just like her objective, she has to make everything clear. This problem would not be solved if she just runs away from it, in order to solve this problem, she thus has to face it bravely.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz0wnBmEW4p
Yes, Stairmount. Say that you are just forced to do this. Just like you are forced to spread the Sierra Pathogen in Saturn because they take your parents as their hostages. Say it, prove your innocence!...
