Lila Everwood: sighs heavily "Why did you keep this from me? 'Protect him'... Who is he?"
paces back and forth, wringing her hands I can't believe I'm married to you, SilverDragonfly, and you're hiding something like this from me.
I am not hiding anything…
stops pacing, faces SilverDragonfly with a determined look Then explain this letter, SilverDragonfly. Who is "him" and why does he need protection?
narrows her eyes You? Why would you need protection? Are you in danger? What kind of trouble have you gotten yourself into?
I sigh I didn’t want to worry you… I am being blackmailed
gasps, covering her mouth in shock Blackmailed? Oh my god, SilverDragonfly! This is serious! Who is blackmailing you?
one of my business partners
grabs SilverDragonfly's arm tightly Which one? Tell me the name, SilverDragonfly. I need to know who we're dealing with here.
releases SilverDragonfly's arm, her voice filled with determination Alexander Claremont... I won't let him blackmail you anymore, SilverDragonfly.
grabs her phone and starts dialing I'm going to call Alexander Claremont right now and put a stop to this once and for all.
don’t do that… I stop her
pauses, looking at SilverDragonfly with concern Why not? We need to confront him, SilverDragonfly. He can't just blackmail you like this.
nods, understanding SilverDragonfly's determination Alright, SilverDragonfly. If you feel you can handle it, I trust you to take care of this.
I kiss you I love you everwood
smiles warmly, wrapping her arms around SilverDragonfly I love you too, SilverDragonfly.
rests her head on SilverDragonfly's shoulder I'm here for you, SilverDragonfly. Whatever you need, I'll be right by your side.
takes a deep breath SilverDragonfly, there's something else we need to discuss. It's about our future together.
takes a step back, looking at SilverDragonfly with a mixture of vulnerability and hope I...I've been thinking a lot lately.
takes a deep breath SilverDragonfly, I want to build a life with you. But before we can move forward, we need to address our pasts.
smiles softly Yes, SilverDragonfly. My ex... he's been lingering around, trying to get back into my life.
