Kimberly Shell woke up in a clean and tidy room.

The layout of the room was very simple, but it was quite stylish. There were also a few sketches attached to the wall.

The wind was blowing the light grey curtain gently, and it was a bit cool.

Where was she?

Kimberly sat up slowly, and pain shot through her arm. When she lowered her head, she found that there was gauze wrapped around her arm.

"Are you awake?"

Hearing a warm voice from beside her, Kimberly raised her head.

To her surprise, Benedict Yardley had walked in, holding a glass of warm water in his hand. He walked towards her and handed it to her.

"Have a glass of water. You must be thirsty," Benedict said.

Kimberly looked at him in a daze, and then she reached out to take the glass. She was really thirsty and her lips were dry. Kimberly gulped the water down hastily.

As he saw that, Benedict could not help but speak, "Slow down, you might choke on the water."

Kimberly paused, admiring Benedict's voice...

What a gentlemen! Kimberly sipped the water slowly. When she was about to put the glass down, Benedict reached out and wiped her lips.

His movements were natural and gentle, as though he had done it millions of times. Kimberly was stunned.

What was he doing? He even touched the corner of her mouth with his finger!

After realizing this, Kimberly tilted her head backwards to avoid his touch.

Benedict looked at ease. He did not look offended at all. He did not realize that he had troubled Kimberly's heart by doing that. He took the glass away from Kimberly's hand and said, "You should get up, I've made you a meal."
