Zachary carefully lifted Lenora into the car, settling her gently into the back seat, then took a close look at

her.

Her forehead was slightly red with a couple of hastily applied bandages, her left cheek was swollen with at clear five-finger imprint, and her right foot...

He lifted her right foot, intending to take off her boot. Lenora tried to pull her leg back, but he held her calf firmly.

When the boot came off, he could see her ankle swollen significantly even through the sock.

In short, she looked entirely disheveled.

Zachary's eyes darkened as he asked in a steady tone. "What's going on? How did you get all these injuries? Who hit you?"

Lenora was silent for a few seconds. "Just don't get involved."

Faced with his pressing gaze, Lenora simply turned her head away, closing her eyes.

Zachary fell silent.

Zachary had abstained from drinking at his business event tonight. His secretary, who'd been taking his place in drinking rounds, had already gone home. He drove Lenora straight to the hospital and headed to orthopedics, explaining the situation to the doctor as he set h The doctor lifted Lenora's right foot, gently pressing the swollen area to assess it. "Does it hurt when 1 press here?"

Lenora replied. "A little."

"And here?"

"A bit, but doctor, you're pressing quite gently. It might hurt more if you pressed harder."

"Oh, in that case, I'll try pressing harder," the doctor said with a smile.

Thinking he was joking, Lenora didn't pay much attention. Then, out of the blue, he firmly fixed her ankle. and applied sudden, intense pressure on it.

"Ow!"

Unprepared, Lenora let out a cry of pain, her eyes welling up with tears.

Zachary quickly supported her, taking her hand. "It hurts a lot!"

Tears welled up in Lenora's eyes. "Yes."

It was too painful.

Seeing her red-rimmed eyes and the look of grievance on her face, Zachary couldn't help but smile.

Lenora pulled her hand back from his.

How can he smile at a moment like this?

The doctor released her ankle. "Try standing and walking around. See if it still hurts."
