Once Bernard fled, only Ella and Lorenzo remained in the room. Ella tried to twist her face out of Lorenzo’s grip.

But Lorenzo instinctively tightened his hold on her face. “Still trying to dodge?”

Ella was puzzled why Lorenzo didn’t refute Bernard’s earlier remark. She squirmed, and when Lorenzo didn’t release her, she writhed in discomfort. “It hurts…”
