Chapter 301

*Author*

As Jacob continued to massage Olivia’s ankle to reduce the swelling, she gritted her teeth, trying to just get through the pain. That was easier said than done, though. She’d been through a lot of painful situations, but nothing compared to this.

She could tell that Jacob was trying his best to be gentle–at least his hands were soft and warm–but because of the pain of her injury his soft touch felt like he was setting her leg on fire while simultaneously pushing a thousand needles into her ankle. Hot pain was licking up her leg. It was at the point where she wanted to scream in agony. A yell was uncomfortably building in her throat, but she was trying her best not to even move a muscle.

Jacob had no idea the kind of excruciating pain that Olivia was in. As he tried to control the swelling, she sat perfectly still with a calm expression. He was beyond impressed with her pain tolerance. Jacob had done this to a few patients with injured ankles. One time, he even had a burly biker crying and begging for his mom.

The only way that Olivia showed that she was in pain on the outside was by the way she was tightly gripping her phone.
