The Enigmatic Return (Nancy’s And Roxanne )

Chapter 308 It Feels Nice to Touch

This unexpected turn of events left Jean momentarily stunned. He did not expect Neera’s impromptu action while in such a dazed state.

However, Neera’s mind was in disarray, and she failed to grasp the significance of the situation. Thus, she mindlessly lowered her clothing, exposing the injury to him.

Upon realizing what had just transpired, Jean was taken aback, and his gaze was swiftly drawn to the bruise on her lower back. As his eyes locked onto the sizable contusion, his expression abruptly stiffened.

Despite applying medicinal ointment at the hospital earlier, the swelling persisted, bearing evident signs of a substantial impact.

His expression darkened, and he could not resist the impulse to touch the affected area gently.

This dual sensation, pain, and an unexpected tingling shattered the drowsy haze that had enveloped her for most of the day, snapping her back to full consciousness. A wave of heat flushed her cheeks.
