What Separates Me and You

Chapter 125 Paint a Rosy Picture

Josephine clenched her fists immediately. For a moment, she thought Lewis had hidden a bug on her.

The latter continued, “Alright now. There’s no need for you to be scared. I won’t do anything to you. After all, you’re still injured.”

Once he was done speaking, he lifted Josephine’s nightgown to check on her injuries.

Josephine remained seated on the cold floor. She had to tense her muscles up in order to control her impulse to shiver.

Lewis got up to his feet and walked out of the bathroom. Soon, he returned with a medical kit.

He crouched down and removed Josephine’s bandages for her. Her wounds were nearly healed, but there was a small section of bandages that he couldn’t remove.

Josephine looked up at the man.

Lewis’ head remained lowered, and his attention was on her wounds.

However, Josephine could feel chills seeping into her heart. If Lewis were to find out what Seth had done to her earlier, he wouldn’t be so gentle to her right now.

He would submerge her underwater in the bathtub, just like he did last time. Either that, or he might resort to other methods to punish her.

Lewis didn’t do any of that. He looked very calm and collected, which meant he knew everything.

Suddenly, Josephine heard him utter, “It will be over soon.”

The woman’s mind went blank for a moment. She couldn’t understand what he meant by that

sentence.

She asked herself, “What would be over soon?”

Did he mean that he would be done bandaging her wounds soon, or was he talking about something else?

Josephine didn’t want to cram her brain with complicated thoughts. She was suffering from a headache right now, and the pain would definitely intensify if she started overusing it.

Once Lewis was done bandaging Josephine’s wounds, he picked her up and left the bathroom.

However, he didn’t put her on her bed. Instead, he brought her to the room next door and put. her on that bed.

Meanwhile, Seth leaned against the wall downstairs with a cigarette between his fingers. He
