Chapter 378

Olivia was prepared to inject another needle into Brian's arm. She looked at Eugene for his help to fold Brian’s sleeve up by a notch. Eugene paused for a while and walked toward Brian to fold his sleeve, revealing a long, albeit shallow, cut.

This startled Olivia. “How did you get this?”

Before Eugene could explain, Brian answered, “Some burglar broke into my house last night; guess that’s how I got it.”

Olivia contemplated but refrained from asking further. Now she knew why Eugene refused to let him carry anything when they ascended the floor—he knew he was injured.
