According to Stephanie, Ella had been avoiding Lorenzo for the past few days. She couldn’t help it, though. Every time she was around him, she seemed to mess things up.

It wasn’t just messing up; it was making a fool of herself. She couldn’t help it.

But after what had just happened, and after hearing what Cecil had said, Ella knew that she had to control herself.

“Mr. Moretti, are you okay?” Ella asked cautiously, standing by the bed.

Lorenzo glanced at her. “Do I look okay?”

Ella stammered, “Well…” He didn’t look okay. He was injured, and if she had hurt him any worse with her little stunt, he might have ended up six feet under.

“I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to.” She had been saying that a lot lately. Ella had apologized more times around Lorenzo than she

had in her entire life.

Lorenzo said, “Get me a glass of water.”

Ella fell silent again.

“What? You don’t want to? Want to continue being lazy and doing nothing?”

“No, no. I’ll go right away, right now. Just wait a moment.”

She couldn’t dare to say such a thing at that moment. She had caused such a big incident. If she dared to say something irresponsible, it would be very dangerous.

Ella quickly turned around to pour Lorenzo a glass of water. In less than five minutes, the water was delivered to Lorenzo. “Mr. Moretti, your water.” At that moment, Ella’s tone couldn’t be more obedient.

Lorenzo looked at her, a hint of amusement flashing in his eyes. “Peel me an apple.”
