My Weak Wife Is a Real Goddess

Hidden Emotions

Lucille raised her eyebrows in amazement. Suddenly, she heard Joseph speak. His voice was heavy and muffled as if he was restraining something.

No one knew what hidden emotions there were in those eyes of his. His gaze was like a surging undercurrent, deep and bottomless, yet slightly cold and lonely.

Lucille pursed her lips. She didn't finish her sentence.

Joseph looked up. The girl in front of him was calm, with a sense of serenity that did not match her age. She used the tools with skilled fingers. In just a few minutes, he could feel the cold poison in his body flowing around.

With her treatment, the toxins were trapped and then sealed together.
