Eliana was hurt…

She was so focused on chasing after Hodge that she did not even notice the glass shards on the table. Actually, she did not even know that those glass shards had pierced through her skin.

The moment Preston reminded her about it, she suddenly felt pain all over her arm, stinging her.

She could not help but think of everything that had happened to her in the past few days.

Nicole had slapped her in the face; then she had almost gotten stabbed by a paper knife; and later, she had fallen to the floor while trying to grab her cellphone. However, she felt more miserable now because of her injuries and the bleeding.

How could she be so unlucky?

“Preston, don’t you think that I have been really unlucky lately? I suffered a lot and I got hurt!”

“We need to get your wound dressed first.”

Maurice’s expression darkened at once, and it seemed as though there was a storm brewing in his dark eyes.

The blood dripping from Eliana’s arm was making him uncomfortable.

“Sit here while I go and fetch the first aid kit.”

Maurice escorted her into the private room and went to get the first aid box.

Eliana’s heart softened as she saw the busy man. She was moved to see that someone cared so much about her and even felt the pain lessened.
