accidentally press on Frank’s wound.“Argh! Careful. It hurts! Are you doing that on purpose?”Spencer immediately came back to his senses as he shook his head apologetically. “I’m sorry. I didn’t mean it.”When Frank’s grimace had smoothened out, he continued to wonder, “Elspeth is such a two-faced woman.
