Revenge of the Hideous Lady by Moonlight

Sebastian Brenand took in a deep breath. “It was only meant as a joke. How could that have happened?”

Henry rolled his eyes at Sebastian. “Pray for your own well-being.”

When Xyla Quest leaned her face against his solid and broad chest, she could feel his prominent heartbeat. Xyla took in a deep breath. “About that… Actually, I can walk on my own with a little help…” She sounded a little embarrassed.

However, the man continued to walk outside without saying a word.

Since they were a good-looking pair, everyone turned their heads to look at them when they walked past.

After they made it outside, Xyla looked at the man’s hardened face. “Don’t you still have unrecovered wounds? Are you sure it’s okay to hold me like this? Why don’t you put me down?”

From what she recalled, he was injured only a few days ago. In fact, he was in a pretty bad shape then.

Wouldn’t his wounds be affected if he held her like this?

“Where is your car?” The man asked as if he had not heard what she said earlier.

Xyla quickly took her car keys out and unlocked her car.

Beep. Beep.

A red Maserati’s headlights flashed somewhere not too far away.

With the same cool expression on his face, the man carried her into her car in a swift motion. He then got into the car from the other side and forcefully placed her right foot on his thigh.

He turned on the lights in the car and began carefully examining her foot. By then, her ankle was already swollen and red. The top of her foot was also a little swollen.

When his warm and long finger touched her skin, Xyla could feel her heart beating wildly.

“Are you really okay?” Xyla asked.

“Why are you so worried about me?” The man raised his brows slightly before quietly studying her face. It felt as if he was seeing right through her.

Xyla immediately pulled her leg away before breathing awkwardly. “You saved me. Of course, I should be worried about you.”

“Don’t worry,” he said sparingly. After that, he silently turned on the engine.

The red Maserati very soon merged with the traffic on the road.
