Suddenly, the living room turned silent. Tia became so sensitive to her surroundings that she could actually hear her own heartbeat, "Mr. Riddle..."

She wanted to speak, but she had no idea what to say.

Stanley carefully looked at the blisters on her fingers and mumbled under his breath, "We've got to take care of this as soon as possible. Otherwise, it's going to hurt a lot."

"Okay...ouch," Tia nodded but she frowned when Stanley touched her wound with the cotton swab.

"I'll be gentler," Stanley's voice sounded so warm, that it instantly calmed Tia down.

'What's going on... I already have somebody else on my mind... But why is my heart beating like crazy now that Mr. Riddle cares for me?'

Tia felt very awkward. She did not dare to speak, and she even almost stopped breathing.

Stanley shook his head, "Don't mention it. You're like my little sister. It's only right for us to take good care of you."

Tia immediately nodded and she was relieved.

'Ah, Mr. Riddle is only treating me as his little sister. I'm so glad."
