"Sir–"
"Hmm…" Christian entered the room and his gaze was fixed on Ella.
Ella was sitting on the bed holding the blanket. When Christian arrived, she unconsciously snuggled deeper.
Ella's lips pursed in annoyance and her hands gripped the blanket tightly, but panic flashed across her face. Even though she tried to cover it up, her body couldn't stop shaking.
"Are you awake?"
Ella couldn't even find her voice so she just nodded.
"Does it hurt?" Christian walked over to her slowly, raising his hand to caress her wound gently.
Ella just looked at Christian warily. She didn't dare say anything. At this point, she didn't know what's going through the man's mind and didn't want to say anything that could make him even angrier.
She didn't want to feel pain anymore.
