"Go and ask what he has bought. We need to know." Looking at the blood oozing from his hand, he knew what was going on.

The bodyguard, despite his years of training, was so scared that he almost lost his voice. At that moment, he suddenly heard the cold voice from the phone and frantically replied, "Yes! Mr. Lewis!"

Quickly hanging up the phone, the bodyguard watched Thomas go into the apartment and then trot to a pharmacy.

"Hello. I want the same medicine which the gentleman earlier has just bought. Do it fast."

The cashier looked strangely at the bodyguard who was wearing sunglasses and requested the doctor to give him the same prescription.

After checking out, he looked at the name of the pillbox and called back Harry.

Harry, who was cleaning his wound in a very worried face, looked much better when he heard the name of the medicine.

"Then who was the one hurt?" His voice was not so cold as before, which relieved the bodyguard's worries.

"Err...I didn't see Mr. Herren injured. Though I watched him enter the apartment in a very anxious manner. So I'm afraid it might be... Miss Newman." The bodyguard was just guessing. But his instinct was almost always correct.

"Okay, keep watching and be alert. If you can't guarantee her safety, you all know what the consequences are!" He slowly wiped his fingers with alcohol under the bright light, and put his phone on the rosewood table. He put the loudspeaker on so he could immediately hear about any updates.

He looked a bit relaxed as if he did not feel any pain from the fingers. But his mind was racing as he went through every scenario possible.

"Yes, Boss Lewis! We'll make it!" In a short while, the polite voice of the bodyguard was heard from the background. Harry hung up the phone.

"Lola, are you really happy when you are with me?

Or you want both of us? Is this what you really want?

If so, Lola, you are so greedy!"

And he, Harry, wouldn't allow it to happen!

In the condo.

Thomas opened the pain reliever, pulled Lola's arm closer to him and applied the ointment on it.

The scalded skin was swelling, but there was no trace of blisters. So it was not too serious... He felt very relieved.

"It's okay, I can do it myself!" Looking at the man in front of her, she felt a bit awkward and wanted to refuse his sweet gesture.

Thomas gave a glance at her and applied more lightly. "It's done. Take the ointment with you so you can do it yourself."

She nodded. "Thanks. Drink the soup yourself! You need a lot! Haha." She smiled playfully.

Ha! No one was more playful and teasing than her! But he liked it...

Thomas looked at her with a grin. "Good. I will." He washed all the utensils and placed two bowls of soup in front of them.

Lola did not want to take it, but she didn't refuse since he already did it. It would be so impolite of her if she didn't eat too.

"Does the wound still hurt?" After finishing the soup, she looked at his arm with an air of concern.

"It's all right. It's not a big deal." He was kidnapped when he was very young and had suffered more serious injuries than this.

"Well, all right." She looked at the watch on her wrist. "Go to bed early. I have to go now." She said, standing up slowly from the couch.

Thomas nodded. "It's so late. Park your car here and let me drive you home."

Lola shook her head. She had bodyguards sent by Harry, and a car following her. She would be safe.

"Don't worry. I have bodyguards." She replied quickly.

He nodded, walked out of the door of the apartment with her, and pressed the button of the elevator. "You should go back now. The car is parked downstairs. Please do take care."

Thomas walked in with her to the elevator. "Let's go. I will walk you to the car."

Lola did not refuse again. They walked out of the apartment together.

It was already 11 pm. The night view outside the apartment was hazy and beautiful. A sudden gust of cold wind made Lola shiver. She felt that she was going to have a fever.

Thomas, seeing the woman rub her arms to make her warm, said, "Wait a minute, I'll get you a coat!" He returned to the apartment in a haste.

But Lola pulled on his sleeves. "No, I will be fine as soon as I get in the car." She shook her head with a very charming smile.

They walked to her Maserati. He watched her get into the car and waved goodbye to her.
