This look on Nia, made him unable to let go, made him worry endlessly.
Even when he was out doing things, he couldn't be at ease, wishing he could always keep her in his heart.
"That's not really a reason, you know."
Nia was stunned for two seconds after hearing Maxwell Peary's reason. Although moved, she felt a bit awkward.
What kind of reason is that?
It's just a fact.
In this world, there are plenty of husbands who don't treat their wives well.
So, what he said just now, just doesn't hold up.
"Be good, eat, don't overthink."
Maxwell spoke patiently, then rubbed her hair.
"Do you want to go out for a stroll this afternoon? If not, we can just head back."
He originally intended to stay here a bit longer, but now that something happened in Capital Town, he had to go back and handle it.
If he left Nia here alone, he would not be at ease.
So, it's better to take her with him. Next time, if she wants to come back, he can bring her then.
