Chapter 123

Avery reentered the bedroom with a first aid kit in her hand.

She knelt down by Elliot's legs and began to undress his wounds.

His injuries were more severe than she had imagined.

A large piece of skin was missing from his leg, revealing the bloody red flesh underneath...

He wanted to make her feel better, but she did not want his false consolation.

"Tell me again how much it doesn't hurt," she said as she glared at him with reddened eyes.

Elliot placed his arms behind him, then narrowed his eyes and said, "It doesn't hurt."

He was betting on her not poking at his wound again.

Her heart would ache at his pain.
