Chapter 94

Jasper accompanied Alyssa to the infirmary. The doctor wasn’t there, so Alyssa grabbed iodine and bandages before treating her injury skillfully.

“I’ll do it,” Jasper offered coldly while approaching her.

Alyssa turned away from him in frustration. She replied icily, “It’s fine.”

Jasper was known to be a stubborn man. He was an extremist, in a sense. He could either ignore Alyssa as though she didn’t exist or meddle in her affairs whenever he felt like it.

Hence, he grabbed Alyssa’s wrist tightly. “Just stay put, Alice!” he commanded.

Alyssa was surprised by the order. Soon, she felt a cool sensation coming from her wrist.

Jasper was applying the ointment to Alyssa’s injury. He focused on dabbing the cotton bud on her

injury as gently as he could.

His long eyelashes lowered slightly when he looked down at Alyssa’s wrist. Whenever he exerted

force with his bony wrist, Alyssa could see the light blue veins underneath his pale skin. They

made his hand look very attractive.

Some people were born to be attractive by nature. Jasper was one of them.

Meanwhile, Jasper continued to check Alyssa’s injury seriously.

Her hand was a lot rougher than he imagined. At the same time, it was still soft to the touch.

Alyssa had such slender fingers, yet their tips were covered with calluses. Her hands didn’t fit her

identity as a young, pampered woman.

An unfamiliar memory started flowing into Jasper’s mind all of a sudden. He thought he could see

rays of silvery moonlight and silk curtains flapping in the wind.

He knew he had never seen such a scene before. But it felt oddly familiar to him.

Jasper took a deep breath just to calm down. He then swallowed dryly.

He never developed such feelings for Liana. Yet why would he feel this way for his ex–wife, who

kept challenging his boundaries?

How ridiculous.

Meanwhile, Alyssa could feel the warmth flowing from Jasper’s fingers. For some reason, she felt a jolt in her heart. She reacted immediately by pulling her hand away.

“I need to bandage your wrist.”

Jasper’s grip tightened around Alyssa’s hand stubbornly. He huffed coldly before commenting,” Did you go mining recently? Why are your hands so rough? There are calluses all over your fingers.

“Nope. I was working on the sewers the whole time.” Alyssa knew how much Jasper loved cleanliness. So, she gave him an answer that would disgust him.

“Can you be nice for once?” A frown appeared on Jasper’s face.
