Melanie moved very quickly. By the time that Leo managed to clean up, she had already taken what she needed and sat on the sofa waiting for him.

“I need to thank you for just now. If it wasn’t for you, I’m the one that would’ve be injured,” Melanie said.

“Don’t thank me. I didn’t manage to help much. Jeffrey’s the one that got injured for you.”
