Chapter 1197 The Weaker Branch Breaks First
But it was too late. The glass fragment scratched Erica's hand. She cried out, "Ah!"
Blood oozed out from her finger.
Matthew grabbed her hand and walked her away from the broken glass.
But then, Erica stepped on the chocolate, slipped and fell back awkwardly. "Argh!"
Matthew pulled her up towards him, and Erica stumbled into his arms.
The kitchen floor was a complete mess.
Frowning, Matthew inspected Erica's hand. The cut was small, but the bleeding hadn't stopped.
"We should take care of that," he said, looking at the blood on her frail finger.
He swooped her up in his arms and strode out of the kitchen.
Surprised, Erica wrapped her hand around his neck and said, "Matthew, I can walk..." She only cut her finger. Her legs were still very much in working condition. There was no need for him to carry her. The man glanced at her coldly. "Do you want to draw a chocolate map on the carpet?"
She looked at her chocolate-stained feet. 'Oh, right.' The living room was fully carpeted. She would create a mess of it if she walked through. 'Oh well,' she thought, stealing a glance at the man.
He gently placed her on the sofa in the living room. Taking off her dirty shoes, he threw them into the trash can. "Wait here. I'll go get the medical kit."
"Okay." Erica casually placed her bleeding finger into her mouth and sucked on it.
Matthew grabbed her hand and scolded, "What are you doing?"
She gaped at him. "It hurts. If I suck on the wound, it would hurt less. Besides, sucking on it will disinfect the wound and stop the bleeding."
Matthew sighed. "Who told you that saliva stops bleeding?"
