Chapter 72 He applies the medicine to her
She thinks it is a tragedy to marry Leo. No wedding, no freedom, no dignity.
But when Claire comes to the door, she suddenly feels that she is dreaming. Because she sees Leo standing at the door with a reproachful look. He has a household medicine chest in his hand.
“Go back to bed and sit down.” Leo says to Claire with some indifference. “I’ll apply the medicine to you.”
Claire is a little overwhelmed and stunned. But when she sees Leo’s cold eyes, she pouts and sits on the bed.
Leo comes to Claire and squats down. He opens the household medicine chest and skillfully picks up the cotton and tweezer. He dips them in alcohol and disinfects her. Then he dips a cotton swab in some light colored ointment and lightly applies it to the back of her injured hand.
Claire feels a little cold and doesn’t feel the pain she imagines. She thinks that the boys are all clumsy in doing these things, but she didn’t expect that Leo is very skilled.
Now Claire wonders if he’s a physician.
Leo seems to notice Claire’s strangeness and surprise. He says quietly, “as you saw today, I often fight. I learned these life-saving techniques.”
Claire says “um”. When it comes to Leo’s uncomfortable identity, she doesn’t know what to do.
Obviously they can’t get divorced.
Leo adds, “you owe me twice...”
“What?” Claire doesn’t understand Leo.
“Twice.”
Leo says, “you haven’t satisfied me twice. Once in bed and once in the bathroom. You have to pay me back double when your injury is cured. I believe you may be more active than I am.”
Claire remembers that she has shown enjoyment before. She didn’t expect him to use it to mock her. Claire’s face becomes gloomy.
Leo says coldly. He doesn’t wait for Claire to answer or refute.
He says to Claire, “I’m going to bed now. It’s time you leave.”
Claire is driven mad by Leo’s moodiness. She gives him a resentful look and goes back to her room.
Claire slept a long afternoon so she can’t sleep at all now. She lies in bed thinking about what happened today and before.
“I should have the gangster stab him to death.”
Claire kicks the quilt helplessly. But time can’t be reversed, or she will choose not to see Leo in her whole life.
...
Claire wakes up almost in shock the next day. She doesn’t dream of being chased or bullied by Leo.
She dreams that she is late.
This is a nightmare for Claire who likes to learn music.
Fortunately, after she wakes up, she rubs her eyes hard and finds that there is still time. She simply cleans herself up and rushes out of the door.
“Stop!”
She hears Leo’s cold voice as she passes the living room.
Claire thinks he is going crazy again. She turns her head and looks at Leo discontentedly without speaking.
Leo wants to teach Claire a lesson, but he is not in the mood to talk. He just asks coldly, “what are you going to do?”
Claire pouts. “I’m going to school. I’m going to be late.” Then she goes out of the door.
“Stop!” Leo roars angrily. Claire turns helplessly and is about to get angry. “You’re injured today. You don’t have to go to school.” Leo says lightly.
“But I just entered the school, I......” Claire is still going to leave. She looks anxiously at the watch on her wrist.
“I’ve called your headmaster and asked for your leave.” Leo says.
“Then I will go, too. Recently, there are all music science courses. Even if my hand is hurt, it doesn’t hinder my study.” Claire shakes her head and refuses.
Leo says coldly, “as a wife, should you let your husband eat breakfast alone?”
Claire stops talking. She sits on the chair and chops up the bread on the plate with a fork and eats breakfast quickly.
She seems to be expressing her dissatisfaction with Leo or wanting to finish early and go to school.
But shortly after Leo starts eating, Claire puts her fork down and says, “I have to go.”
This time Leo doesn’t stop her.
...
Claire walks on the road and recalls yesterday’s scene. She feels a little scared.
Seeing the long and narrow cut, Claire feels that she has suffered a lot. Then she thinks of Leo’s underworld identity again, which makes her feel a little cold.
In her impression, the underworld is full of ruthless people.
She is Leo’s wife. If someone catches her and threatens Leo, the consequence must be...
Claire is suddenly in a panic.
But all of a sudden Claire hears the car tires rubbing on the ground. She turns to see a car coming towards her. The driver is blaring his horn wildly!
It turns out that when she was just distracted, she accidentally walked onto the road!
She hurries to the sidewalk, but accidentally sprains and falls on it. She feels a sharp pain!
Claire bursts into tears and struggles to get up to stop several cars, but no one pays attention to her.
What should she do? Claire grits her teeth.
She can’t get to school in this state. If there’s no car for her...
Just as Claire is worried, a white Porsche stops in front of her.
Claire wonders if someone can help her.
The door is opened. Claire sees a pair of elegant and sexy legs and a small pink suit. She raises her face and sees a smiling face and long black hair like a waterfall.
The girl gets out of the car and gracefully walks up to Claire and says, “can I help you?” Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Claire is not stubborn. She nods and thinks the girl is beautiful and kind. There are still many good people in the world.
“I’ll take you to the hospital.” The woman gently helps Claire into her car.
Claire talks to the girl a lot on the way. But she only knows her name.
Her name is Emma.
