Chapter 110 Keeping Her Around

Leo ran back and flung the door open. The first thing he saw was Elyse clutching her hand in pain, and shards of glass were scattered all over the ground.

Elyse sniffled, tears glistening in her eyes. “I was going to get a glass of water, and then the glass exploded in my face.”

The ground was covered in steaming water. The glass must have exploded in her hand.

She put her hand down, revealing her scalding arm.

He quickly approached her and placed her hand under the faucet. Then he turned it on and cleaned her wound with cold water. At the same time, he called the doctor.

Elyse stared at him intently, a frown creasing her forehead like she was in great pain. “But my hand hurts a lot. Feels like a ton of ants are biting away at it. Can you stay for the night? Please?”
