Chapter 145

Her gaze fixed on the scarf in Sebastian’s hand and the bright red bloodstains on it.

Sebastian glanced down at the bloodstains,

Frowning, he asked, “Isn’t this my scarf? How did it get blood on it? What happened?

Stephanie was at a loss for words.

Her mind was already in a muddle. Now, hearing Sebastian ask her, she felt like she couldn’t catch her breath.

“Um, well…” Even with the sharpest mind, she couldn’t come up with a plausible reason now.

Ugh, this was really….

“Wait, I remembered. I had a nosebleed.”

Sebastian replied, “Huh?”

“Yeah, a nosebleed. When I was helping you up, I accidentally bumped into something and got a nosebleed, which you on the scarf?”

‘Would that excuse work?

‘I don’t know if Sebastian would buy it! she thought.

Sebastian raised an eyebrow, his deep eyes carrying emotions that Stephanie couldn’t understand.

“A nosebleed?”

“Yeah, a nosebleed.” Stephanie Giovanni swallowed subconsciously.

Yes, a nosebleed. She dared not say anything else.

Meeting Sebastian’s gaze, Stephanie felt an unprecedented tightness in her chest.

Hearing this, Sebastian strode forward and scooped her up from the bed.

He pinched her nose affectionately and asked, “Did you have a nosebleed?”

Stephanie replied, “I cleaned it.” She felt like her heart was about to jump out of her chest.

Struggling, she tried to escape from Sebastian’s grip.

“Ah, can you just let me sleep? I’m really sleepy.”

She was scared to death.

If this kept up, she really might be scared to death. Why put her through this torture?

Because of the large motion, the moment Sebastian pulled Stephanie from the quilt, the scarf around her neck loosened.

A large area of bruising came into Sebastian’s sight, and his deep eyes concealed an unspoken question, “What happened to your neck?”

Stephanie didn’t know what to say.
