Sylvia wasted no time in exchanging pleasantries. Edgar instinctively tried to break free, but the pain from applying the medicine made it impossible for him to summon the strength. In the end, he had no choice but to surrender.

Ms. Sylvia was taken aback and pushed him onto the bed, raising both of his hands above his head. Sylvia stood at the edge of the bed, pressing her right knee firmly against his lower back to immobilize him. Edgar’s ears turned slightly red, and he asked in a low voice, “Sylvia” What are you doing?”

Just as the two of them were enjoying the spectacle, Edgar’s dark eyes narrowed, and he shot a sharp glare in their direction. Eric and Cole were instantly startled but had no choice but to comply with his

Edgar deliberately hissed in pain and contorted his face. “Sylvia, it hurts““”

Sylvia glanced at him coldly, raised an eyebrow, and smiled. “Who changed your bandages? When I entered, I saw Eleven and the others fainting in the garden. What happened?”

“I did it myself,” Edgar replied, his expression unchanged. Forced to lie on the bed, he had no choice but to answer her questions with his head turned to the side.
