Chapter: 68
After their argument the night before, neither of them spoke.
The atmosphere was so tense that even her favorite toast didn’t seem appetizing to Ariana.
She sipped on her milk absent-mindedly. Every now and then, she would steal a glance at Theodore.
He ate quietly, each of his movements delicate and elegant.
Some people were simply born with grace.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAriana snorted to herself. He might be handsome, but that was no disguise for his mean character.
She took a big bite of toast and chewed.
Then she realized that Theodore hadn’t been. using his left hand, and his sleeve was pulled down over
his wrist.
She thought back to the night before. The mystery man had held her with his left hand.
A suspicion crept in.

jam is delicious,” she said with at smile.
Theodore gave her a meaningful look and didn’t move.
Then Judy, who had been serving the food, spoke up abruptly. “Mr. Anderson doesn’t have much of a
sweet tooth.”

“Oh god, what happened to your wrist?” she exclaimed.
“It was my fault. I knocked over a bowl of porridge last night and scalded him,” Judy explained, a guilty
look on her face. She turned and picked up a first aid kit. “That reminds me, it’s time to change your
bandage, sir. Mrs. Anderson, would you mind giving me a hand?”
Theodore said nothing. His injured hand remained on the table as if accepting Judy’s suggestion.
Ariana didn’t object. She gently unwrapped the bandage. Her brow furrowed as she saw the state of his
wrist, red and swollen.
She couldn’t imagine how painful that must be, but he didn’t even blink.
“Does it hurt?” she asked, concerned, as she applied ointment with a cotton swab.
