Sir, Madame Has Run Away Again!

Chapter 323

The pool kiss was embarrassing enough, but now I felt like I could die of embarrassment. I was naked, and out of shock, I stared at him silently, not even bothering to cover myself up. Oh God, kill me.

Eric, on the other hand, looked calm. He looked at me, then at the toiletries strewn across the floor. “What happened?” he asked quietly.

I couldn’t say anything, so Eric came to help me. Instinctively, I tried to move backwards, but there was nowhere to hide. When my back rubbed against the support, I hissed in pain again.

He knew what was going on so he held me in his arms. This was the first time I was being hugged like a naked princess. Oh shit, oh shit, oh shit, oh shit. That was what was going through my head at that moment. After that, Eric calmly got me out of the bathroom and placed me on the bed with me lying on my stomach before covering me with a blanket, revealing only my back where the skin had been shaved.

“Just stay here and don’t move. I’m going to get some ointment.” I buried my head in the bed and lay there, motionless. Just when I thought I was out of ideas, I suddenly remembered the movies I saw. All female leads would pretend to pass out in that kind of situation, so I did that too, as it seemed like the best option right now.

Eric came back a little while later with his ointment. When he was applying it to my back, the pain from the wound broke me; I couldn’t keep up my act, so I gasped. Eric was obviously being kind, but it was pointless as the pain was still unbearable. I couldn’t take it anymore, and since I had embarrassed myself, it was better to continue. “Are you trying to kill me?”

“It will be painful, but its anti-inflammatory effect is great. Just hang in there,” he told me gently.

“I can’t ‘hang in’ when this pain is killing me! Can you do this if you are in my shoes?” D*mn, I sure as hell am not lucky. I didn’t want to have dinner here, but he made me.

I should have left after dinner, but why did I go for a walk with him? Now my back hurt a lot, and I was thinking of walking away from Eric whenever I saw him. I’d rather not work with him if he can save me from this humiliation. Tears then fell on me and I sobbed.

Eric didn’t say anything, nor did he put more ointment on my back, so I felt someone blowing on my back. Oh my god, he’s even blowing on my back! I continued sobbing. “Can you be faster?”

“You said it’s painful”, he replied gently.

I wiped away my tears at the thought that I would have to explain everything that had happened so far, or there would be no more chance for it. “I did not mean that.”

“I know. No one is going to get hurt on purpose.”

“That’s not what I mean.”

“So what is it?”
