Eliza saw that he was frowning and anxious, and was truly speechless.

He was obviously worried to death, yet he refused to call her to ask. This was truly a contradiction.

"I'm afraid that my brother will have wild thoughts. It's already very wrong for me to rush over to ask about her today." Richard rested his hands on his hair, looking like he had lost his square inch.

Seeing him like this, even Eliza couldn't tell what she felt in her heart. She could only envious that Felicity had so many people who were concerned about her.

If there came a day when she was in a car accident, would Richard be worried for her?

It shouldn't be. To him, I am just a stranger.

Even if I have any feelings for him, it would only be someone I know. Who would be worried about an insignificant person?

"Is your leg better?" Just as Eliza was in a daze. She suddenly heard his concern.

She was slightly surprised, but immediately shook her head. "Not yet. It still hurts. I need to apply more medicine later."

"Let me help you!" Richard suddenly sat down beside her and placed her injured leg on his legs.

Eliza never thought that Richard would actually not hate her, and even let her put his feet on his legs.

She was stunned. Then, she felt cool on her injured leg. Then, the man's hand used a bit of strength to massage her swollen leg.

"Is that okay?" Richard turned to look at her and asked.

Eliza endured the pain and nodded: "I'm fine!"

Seeing that she could stand it, Richard slowly did it for her.

"Richard, why are you suddenly so good to me?" Eliza asked jokingly.

Richard said: "Your foot is injured because of me. I treat you better, is it not right?"

"I thought a Great Boss like you wouldn't do such a thing for others." Eliza laughed at herself.

"Originally, I would not have done so. However, since the reason for your injuries is because of me, I will also not ignore you."

Richard lifted his head to look at her, and then continued to seriously press the foot for her.

"Ouch!" Eliza was still unable to hold back, and exclaimed in a low voice.

Richard realized that she was holding back so much that her eyes had even turned red, and her tears were flowing out of her eyes.

"Does it hurt?" He frowned slightly.

Was this woman a fool?

It was obviously very painful, so why didn't she say anything?

Eliza laughed dryly as she reached out to wipe her tears, "The doctor said that I need to use a bit of strength to massage the swelling, and I was afraid to use much strength. I am already grateful that you are willing to help me, even if it hurts, I will endure it."

"Eliza, you're an idiot!" After Richard heard her words, how could he bear to make her tear up from the pain?

Eliza was startled, but after that, she started to mock herself: "Why are you scolding me, I always feel that I am not stupid, and am instead a little smart."

"Tell me about yourself, your family." Richard suddenly had a bit of interest in her..

"I have nothing to say!" Eliza blinked her eyes.

"Didn't you say you had a very rich stepfather? Is he nice to you?" Richard asked.

"He treats me pretty well, but I have too deep a memory of my father to accept him. Thus, I have never called him father and have always called him uncle." Eliza said with a wry smile.

"You really make me have a whole new version of respect for you. I thought you would give up everything for money, but I didn't expect you to have such backbone." Richard laughed.

Eliza raised her chin and snorted: "I still have my bottom line. There are some things, no matter how much money you give me, I won't do it."

"What about your mother? Why didn't she come to find you?" Richard raised his head and looked at her curiously.

A flash of sadness appeared on Eliza's face, "My mother has already left me behind, I have a step-brother too. All of her thoughts are on him."

"I didn't expect you to be no better than me." Richard had finally found someone worse than himself.

Eliza looked at him in shock: "At least one thing is better than you, I am more optimistic than you. I love life more than you. I know how to accept reality better than you."

"What's your sense of being better than me? Do you have my money? Do you have my status and reputation?" Richard ridiculed her.

Eliza shrugged her shoulders and generously admitted: "You're right, I don't have anything that you have, but it doesn't affect me looking for happiness either."

"I really don't know how you make yourself happy." Richard realized that compared to Eliza, he seemed to have everything. However, he was not happy.

"Maybe this is called being poor and happy. Without money, everything will become much simpler." Eliza couldn't help but laugh.

Richard put her feet down: "Are you hungry?"

"A little!" Eliza looked at the sky outside the window, and when she thought about how she did not eat lunch, she immediately felt extremely hungry.
