Grace quickly said, "It's okay, Mr. Henderson. There's still some left in the pot. I'll bring it out again."

Her hand was hurting terribly, but she could only ignore it at this moment. She turned around and went back to the kitchen to get the medicine, but Jodie stepped in ahead of her.

"Step aside. I'll go get it. You'll only dirty the dishes in the house."

Grace was pulled back several steps. After finally steadying herself, she saw that Jodie had already gone into the kitchen. She touched the back of her hand, remaining still.

Out of the corner of her eyes, she caught sight of Ethan gazing toward the kitchen. It was unclear whether he was simply spacing out or worried that Jodie might get burned. He was truly very good to Jodie.

Stunned, she felt a little touched and quickly replied, "It doesn't hurt. Mr.

Henderson, I'm really sorry."
