The Queen's Back
Chapter 190
After Ava went upstairs, Joseph took a careful look around the living room where she lived.
The space was simply decorated, mostly in shades of white. After surveying it, he sat down on the couch and waited for Ava to return.
He touched his cheek absentmindedly; it was bleeding slightly-Bud had hit him hard.
But he thought it was worth it since Ava had brought him here.
When Ava came down with a first-aid kit, she noticed the corners of Joseph's mouth lifting into a small smile.
The sight made her guilt deepen just a bit more, and she hurried over to him.
"I'm so sorry. I don't know why he snapped like that, making you take a punch for nothing," she said apologetically, opening the first-aid kit and sitting beside him.
"What are you apologizing for? I took the punch, but I gave one back, too," Joseph replied, frowning slightly.
He didn't like it when Ava apologized to him. It made him feel like she was aligned with Bud, leaving him on the outside.
But Ava was his girlfriend, not Bud's.
"Alright, alright-keep still and lower your head so I can treat it," Ava said, dipping a cotton swab into antiseptic. She reached for his cheek.
Joseph tilted his face towards her hand as instructed.
They were sitting close, and Joseph could smell the fresh, clean scent that seemed to cling to her.
His heart sped up just a bit.
Ava dabbed the cotton swab on his injured cheek.
Perhaps it was because it was Ava's first time doing that, so it seemed she wasn't used to treating wounds gently. Joseph couldn't help but hiss in pain and leaned back a little. Seeing his reaction, Ava quickly apologized and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't realize I was being rough."
