Dear Sweetheart

Chapter 175 The Past Of Kristie

James shot her an indifferent look. “No, thanks.”

“Why are you so wary of me? What do you think I’ll do to you?” Kristie grumbled in dissatisfaction.

Jeez, it’s not like I’m going to do anything to you.

Back when they were staying at the condominium, James had always watched over Kristie when she slept. However, at that time, she was wearing pajamas, unlike now.

Under such circumstances, he couldn’t help but peek at her.

Even though he knew he shouldn’t do so, he couldn’t control himself.

“What’s with the injury on your lower back?” James asked casually to distract himself.

Kristie froze for a split second when she heard his question. The look in her eyes changed. Then she pointed at his face and yelled, “You perv! How do you know I have an injury on my lower back?”

James cleared his throat, feeling helpless. “I accidentally saw it just now.”

“But you did see it! I don’t care! You have to be responsible for me!” Kristie pouted as she lifted her head to stare at him.

“What exactly happened?” James asked again, pretending not to hear what she had said.

“It’s just an old injury.” Kristie, lying in the bathtub, replied in feigned nonchalance. “All thanks to that injury, I’m living a good life now.”

James sensed something was wrong with her. However, he didn’t want to question her further to make her uncomfortable. “Enjoy your bath,” he responded instead.
