Chapter 6 Despite the throbbing pain in her leg, Elizabeth gathered her strength and said, “Put me down.”
Elijah, however, ignored her, his eyes scanning her leg wrapped in bandages.
His brow furrowed slightly.
“What happened to your leg? Is this some elaborate scheme to win me back?”
At his words, a bitter laugh escaped Elizabeth.
It seemed he saw her as simply craving attention, and when she failed to get it, she had likely fabricated a story to pull him back, dramatizing her injury just to capture his focus.
With a blank expression, she answered untruthfully, “It’s a beauty treatment that shouldn’t get wet.”
“Why did you suddenly decide to go for such a treatment?” Elijah asked, his voice casual as he carried her outside, no longer pressing the issue.
His frame was large, and through his thin shirt, she could distinctly feel the warmth of his body and the firm outline of his chest muscles.
The closeness created an awkward tension for Elizabeth, who had resolved to end things once and for all.
Her voice rose involuntarily, sharper now.

James?”
