Chapter 694


    Someone yanked up Fredric before he could open his eyes. The searing pain of his wound caused him


    to shout in hysterics even when he was usually gentlemanly. “Oh, sorry, sorry!” Aurelia apologized


    hastily. “I found a good medicine and was so happy that I forgot you’re wounded…” Fredric sucked in a


    cold breath. The forgotten case of his wound had happened too often these days. If he were to be


    asked, he’d answer that he had never epted any bribery as awyer. He had always upheld justice


    and fought for the people. He had never done anything to have a guilty conscience! Why did the


    heavens send someone like this to “heal” him? Fredric chuckled wryly and could only cave in when he


    saw the girl’s innocent look. “I’ve never taken care of anyone,” Aurelia said softly, passing him the


    water and medicine. “You’re my first man!” “Pft!” Fredric spat the water he had just drank. Aurelia


    quickly wiped it with a towel and blinked while she did so. “Did I say it wrong? You’re the first one, and


    you’re a man, so…” “You can’t use Acian like this!” Fredric was exasperated. Aurelia could speak


    Acian, but it was no longer fluent since she had been living in Chaisnd for so long. She shrugged


    and smiled nonchntly. She was happy when she saw Fredric take medicine. “This is a medicine from


    the nomads. Do you know the nomads?” “Mm, I do.” “They’re traveling frequently, and getting injured is


    common. As such, they’re especially good at handling wounds and injuries! Your wound is nothing to


    them!” Fredric smiled. “Desperate times, desperate measures. It’s all up to you.” “Well…” Aurelia did


    not catch it. “You’re still alive now!” Frederic nodded. It was probably a cebo effect from the medicine


    as he felt his wound did not hurt as much, and he was much more alert. Books Chapters Are Daily

    asked him to close his eyes.


    Frederic did as told. When he reopened them, the girl had already changed into her usual T-shirt and


    jeans. She was holding his jacket and scanning it. “Why are you looking at this?” He had been wearing


    the jacket the day he was robbed. There were two holes in it and some dried blood. Aurelia looked at


    him and then at the jacket before sighing in pity. “This is branded. I don’t even get to touch it on normal


    days, and it’s ruined now. Sigh…” Her expression was like she was looking at a destroyed treasure, yet


    the jacket was one of the mostmon ones in his closet. Fredric felt something he could not name.N?velDrama.Org: owner of this content.


    “Right, your shirt is a big brand too.” Aurelia looked at him. “You’re dressed nicely. How did you get to


    the alley? Someone like you shouldn’t be around this area!” “I’m a foreigner and not familiar with this


    area. The cab driver drove me there,” answered Fredric. “I get it. They tricked you!” Aurelia went over


    and grinned yfully with bright eyes. “You must be rich?” There was a light fragrance when she was


    close to him. It was not perfume but a fresh spring scent unique to her. It was rather a miracle that she


    grew up so well in such awful conditions. Fredric smiled. “I’m totally broke now that all my money’s


    been stolen.” Aurelia pursed her lips. She wanted to throw her jacket away but could not bear to do it


    and hang it on the hanger. “It still works with some patching,” she muttered to herself. “It’s an


    international brand. It’ll still make some money at the thrift market!” “You…” Fredric was exasperated.


    Aurelia was nonchnt and pulled out some money from her pocket. It was her ie today. She


    smoothened out the cash notes one by one and kept them in a small metal box after counting them


    with a satisfied smile.
