Mabel Quinn was stunned for a moment before she realized that the Daniel Harris before her was deeply haggard, his usual elegance and nobility had been replaced by a sense of profound desolation. His beautiful dark eyes were filled with a look of pain.
This version of Daniel Harris was something she had never seen before. Mabel was somewhat surprised and asked, "Mr. Harris, is there something you need?"
The words "Mr. Harris" made Daniel laugh, but the laughter was filled with sadness. "To you, am I just Mr. Harris? Why didn't you tell me your real name back then? Why didn't you tell me your name was Mabel Quinn? Even if you had whispered it to me secretly, even if you just told me a single character of your name! Instead, it took all these years for me to learn that the girl who accompanied me through that dark world was actually named Mabel Quinn."
