hands tied and her cheeks red and
swollen, he had felt the urge to kill.
The person he treasured and wanted to
protect had been harmed!

Grace bit her lip but did not cry out at all. After all, she was used to not crying out because it never worked even if
she did!
Jason did not say anything and only
prepared the ointment before applying it
on her.
In addition to the wounds on her face,
she also got kicked several times.
“I’ll do it myself,” she said.
“You won’t be able to apply it on your

“But…”
“If you find it awkward, I’ll apply it with
my eyes closed. The doctor wrote the
approximate position of your injuries in the examination report,” said Jason.
Grace was stunned. Before she knew it,
he had walked up to her back, closed his

“Ah!” She let out a cry of surprise. Then,
she heard him say, “Don’t move. I can’t
find the exact position if you move.”
Grace froze immediately.
The next moment, she felt his fingers on
her back.
He touched the spot where she was
experiencing a dull pain at the moment. The ointment the doctor prescribed for her contained mint, and it sent a
cool
sensation running down her back.
However, her back felt as though it
was getting hotter and hotter. It was as though her blood was rushing to where
his fingers were.
After applying the ointment on her back,
Grace’s skin seemed as if it had been
stained pink.
She hurriedly pulled her clothes down.
“A-Alright.”
Jason opened his eyes slowly. His long eyelashes were raised like fans. With those gorgeous eyes, he seemed to be
able to intrigue people easily.
“You’re hurt. Don’t go to the firm
tomorrow. Take a few days off and rest,”
he said to her as he put the ointment on
the table.
“That won’t do. It’s not as if I can’t walk,

“Really? Do you have to go to work?” he
asked.
“Everyone else is going to work, and if I don’t, someone else will have to take

she said.
“Alright, I see,” he said out of the blue.
‘What do you see?’ Grace was puzzled.
However, in the evening, Grace received
a call from the firm. It was from the receptionist, informing her that the firm
was closed tomorrow.
“Closed?” Grace was stunned. Tomorrow was not a holiday or a memorial day.
“Yes, closed. The higher-ups informed me without giving any reason for it. They
just said to close the firm for three
days and see what happens later,” the receptionist said. Though it was without any reason, they would still get paid.
Who would not like some days off?
After finishing the call, Grace looked blankly at her phone. Somehow, she felt that Jason might have something to
do
with this.
