Chapter 120 Let’s Get Divorced, Nicholas (1)

Nancy promptly stopped sobbing and looked up while she frantically wiped her tears away when she heard the door slide open.

However, she forgot about the blood on her hands that came from the bloody blade. Thus, her face was now smeared with blood.

The streaks of blood stood out on her face. She looked extremely frightening from afar.

Nicholas was horrified when he saw blood on Nancy’s face. He hastily rushed over and held her face between his hands as he frantically asked, “What happened, Nancy? Why is there so much blood on your face?”

“I’m fine. Nancy coldly shoved him away.

“Look at all the blood you’ve lost. How can you say you’re fine?”

“Stay still. Don’t move.”

He then turned to grab the first-aid kit.

Subsequently, he grabbed her feet with one hand while he picked out the glass shards from her feet with the tweezers in his other hand after wearing a pair of sterile gloves.

The larger shards were easier to extract. He only needed to grab them with the tweezers. The tiny pieces that were long and thin were the worst. They were hard to find and were deeply embedded
