She knew that the message was from Justin.


    Her heart felt bitter and ufortable.


    She put away her phone and thought for a moment before deleting the message. Justin was not from


    the same world as


    her.


    The wounds on her body were painful and itchy. However, she did not dare to scratch them even if she


    wanted to. It was so torturous that she could not sleep.


    She looked at the time. It was almost eleven o’clock. In the end, she got up and went to the hot spring


    again.


    Upstairs


    Brian stood on the balcony, cigarette butts scattered around his feet. He stared at the dark night sky,


    his dark eyes bottomless


    After a long time, he turned around and quietly walked back to the bedroom. He took an unopened


    medicine and left the

    room


    He took the key to the door of the wine cer and opened the door very gently.


    He used his phone to light the room up and realized that Grace was not inside. He then nced at the


    back door and smiled.


    “Not so stupid after all,” he muttered.


    His footsteps were light as he walked across the patio. As expected, he saw the lights in the hot spring.


    Grace sat in the pool, her slender armszily resting on the sides of the pool.


    There were alsorge bruises on her smooth and fair back.


    She did not notice his arrival. He approached her quietly. It was not until he walked behind her that he


    realized that she had


    fallen asleep in the water.


    He frowned slightly and nced at the medicine in his hand. In the end, he went to the shower to get a


    towel and ced it on the ground. He then gently pulled her out of the pool.


    She opened her eyes in a daze. However, she had been in the water for too long, so her entire body


    felt very weak. As soon as her eyes opened slightly, she fell back asleep again.


    He saw her opening her eyes and subconsciously held his breath.


    Seeing that she had fallen asleep again, he ced her on the towel and wrapped it around her body.


    A faint scent wafted to his nose. He nced at the woman in his arms and stopped in his tracks.


    Suddenly, he lowered his head and sniffed her neck


    It was the unique scent of her body mixed with the fragrance of wine. It was both refreshing and


    intoxicating.


    He gulped unconsciously. He took a deep breath and walked back to the wine cer unhurriedly.


    Heid her on her side on the bed and was about to pour out the medicine when she rolled over and


    lay t on the bed.


    He frowned. Her injuries were basically all on her back. How was he going to apply the medicine if she


    was lying–t like this?


    He turned her body sideways again. Just as he poured the medicine out, she slowly slid over andy


    t on the bed again.


    He moved his lips and spat out a word. “Pig!”


    He stood by the bed and thought about it before taking off his shoes and getting on the bed. He


    supported her body with one hand and turned her body to face him.


    This way, he could hold her with one hand and apply the medicine for her with the other.


    Because of this, he could not really see the wounds on her body. As such, he could only sit up slightly


    and stick close to her body.


    After applying the medicine for five minutes, he felt that the air seemed to have be hot.


    He looked down and his gaze trembled slightly. Her body seemed to be a little different from before.


    His throat bobbed as he closed his eyes, as if he wanted to throw away some thoughts that he


    shouldn’t be having.


    Grace seemed to have sensed thefortable heat and smacked her lips as her body moved forward


    involuntarily.


    Brian’s body stiffened. Her skin was really unbelievably soft.


    After he finally finished applying the medicine for her, he was about to get out of bed when the person


    in his arms suddenly grabbed his clothes tightly.


    “Brian…
