Karl brought a glass of water over.

“What you did is right. Other than helping him, we need to ingrain the same awareness into him. Anyway, what happened to your hand? Did you hurt yourself?”

The moment he changed the subject, his gaze fell upon Sasha’s arm.

Only then did Sasha looked down at it.

In truth, Sebastian had twisted her hand earlier. However, he would never know that her body was filled with screws, including the forearm that he had just hurt.

“I’m fine. I just hurt myself during work. It’s nothing some medication wouldn’t cure. Anyway, where’s Vivi?”

 

Not wanting Karl to worry, she changed the subject.

However, Karl was stumped.

 

After all, he used to be a soldier and had worked as a bodyguard for many years. Therefore, he could recognize the injury on her hand with a single glance.

Nevertheless, he didn’t force the issue since Sasha didn’t want to talk about it.

Pointing at the room, he remarked, “She’s already asleep. If there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave.”

“All right. Thanks for everything.”

Nodding in acknowledgment, Sasha watched him leave.

Late at night, when both mother and daughter were in deep sleep, a figure that had been keeping watch outside the window slipped in and placed a bottle of medication for bruises on the table.

After that, the figure disappeared at once.
