Chapter 93
I felt uncomfortable and tried to move away from Ethan's touch, but my movement was clumsy, and I stopped.
Ethan made a curious sound, "Hmm?"
I pressed my lips together and said firmly, "I don't want to see it."
Ethan's voice became more playful. "But what if I want you to see it, Eve?"
ment, we were so close that I could smell his aftershave.
I felt a strange, warm sensation in my ears. I turned my head suddenly, and Ethan did the same. At that moment, wes "Alright," the doctor said, bringing me back to reality. I pushed Ethan's hand away from my eyes.
The doctor had taken off his gloves. "Keep this hand dry for three days and try not to move it much. I'll come by every day to change the bandage."
"It should heal in about two weeks," he continued, packing up his medical kit. "By the way, I used cosmetic sutures, so scarring shouldn't be a concern."
I nodded and stared blankly at my bandaged hand, feeling a bit out of it
When Ethan and I walked out of the room, I saw Elene and the other two guys looking at me with discomfort and unease.
t for a month. She won't be back until after
Before I could ask what was going on, Antoine said, "The Yalding taunily came to get Wanda. Her dad is putting her under house arrest for a month. Sh the New Year"
Ethan nodded slightly, not showing much emotion.
Antoine's mention of "house arrest' probably meant that the Yalding family was sending Wanda back to their old, rural hom
The Yalding family had become rich by luck, having started out as a poor family from the remote mountains of Yardville and making it big in the herbal medicine business.
I heard that Wanda's hometown was very backward, with only well water, minimal electricity, and no internet.
A city person like Wanda would struggle there, and she'd probably break down in less than three days. Nevertheless, I didn't feel sorry for her-it was her own fault
At the same time, I was relieved With Wanda gone, I wouldn't have to worry about anyone trying to mess with me for the rest of the trip.
"Let's eat," Antoine said with a friendly smile, waving for the server to bring out the food.
Lyla gaided me to the table "You lost a lot of blood earlier, sot asked the kitchen to make some hearty chicken noodle soup for you. You should have some."
I noticed she looked upset. I reached out and touched her cheek, "What's wrong? Did I scare you?"
Lylashook her head and didn't say anything
After teased her a bit, she said, "I just feel like I always cause trouble when I'm with you. Like that time at Nicholas University we ended up at the police station because of Leah and the others." "Oh, come on. Stop saying that," I replied.
Lyla was really kind, and sometimes her kindness made her easy to take advantage of I looked over at Elene, who was sitting at the far end of the table.
"Did someone say something to you? Was it Elene?"
Lyla rabbed her eyes, which were red and swollen. "She's right. If I hadn't argued with Wanda, you wouldn't have gotten hurt."
"Stop saying that," I said, trying to use my left hand to pick up some food for her. However, the spoon wouldn't o
t cooperate.
A shrimp appeared in my bowl, and I saw Erhan slowly peeling another. Since he helped with my injury, things between us felt a little strange, but I couldn't figure out why
I put the shrimp in Lyla's bowl with a spoon. "Aren't you the biggest fan of shrimp? Eat it before it gets cold."
Lyla's face lit up, and she happily ate the shrimp

In the middle of the night, woke up feeling thirsty and went outside to get some water. After drinking it, I suddenly wasn't tired anymOTE
