The next moment, he settled her down on the sofa and started applying the medication.

During the whole process, Natalie's body was all tensed up with both her hands clenching the hem of her dress tightly. Gritting her teeth, she looked as if she was enduring immense pain.

When he noticed her reaction, Shane lightened his touch. “Knowing how painful it was going to be, why didn't you avoid her?”

“I did, but I didn't manage to avoid her fully,” Natalie replied softly with her head hung low.

Shane pursed his lips. “Every time I see you, you seem to always get yourself hurt. Can't you take better care of yourself?”

Natalie squirmed her lips. “Not that I don't want to, but it happened too quickly. It has gotten me thinking as to whether my decision to return to this city was the right one.”

Her motivation for returning wasn't just because the city was her hometown. More importantly, it was the fashion capital of the country and had a thriving fashion industry. Therefore, the best career opportunities were all located here.

However, what she didn't expect was to fall in love with Shane just when she wanted to focus on her career. He was someone she wasn't supposed to fall in love with. Ever since she did, she was beset upon by neverending crises.
