章 222: Welcome to the Capital

The moment Desmond said she was terrifyingly different, she felt paranoid that there was something he didn't like about her. 

The circumstances of her life forced her to become stronger rather than the timid girl she used to be. 

Justification was at the tip of her tongue and she wanted to defend herself but Desmond silenced her when he walked forward and clasped her hands. He knelt in front of her and his expression spoke of nothing but admiration. She didn't think he was going to be mean to her. 

Desmond's heart raced as he looked at his wife who seemed confused and guarded at his very words and he knew that he needed to explain himself quickly.
