“N-Nothing… I hurt myself by accident on the way back, that’s all!” Sasha stammered in response to his sudden glare.

Since she refused to tell him the truth, he chose not to press her for answers and led her into the bedroom after taking a quick glance at her hand.

“You messed up the bandages. I’ll re-do it for you.”

“No, don’t worry about it,” Sebastian calmly reassured her and kept his head low as he focused on wrapping her hand up.

Sasha felt relieved when she heard that.

“What did he tell you, then?”

“He asked me about his son. He wanted to know if I was the one causing trouble behind the scenes,” Sebastian lied as naturally as he breathed while bandaging her hand up like a gentleman.

Due to his intelligence, Sasha had no choice but to believe him whenever he lied to her.
