“Why didn’t you pull your hand back?”

Christina hurriedly pulled the door open with a worried frown and rushed to check Nathaniel’s hand. His fingertips and palms were red and swollen.

“All right. Let’s go now!”

Christina hesitated for a moment. Realizing she was the one who caused Nathaniel’s injury, she had no choice but to agree.

Right after entering the house, Christina walked into the kitchen. “Are you hungry? I’ll make you some
