Chapter 1164


    Thssa nced at Lysander''s leg and then up at him. Worry and tension were clear as day in her


    clear eyes.


    Lysander caught her concern and attempted to downy the injury, "It''s just a scratch, no big deal."


    Despite his casual words, Thssa saw the harsh reality—arge swath of his calf was burned,


    several blisters had popped, and the mingling of blood and pus was a gruesome sight.


    He must have gotten burned while rescuing her.


    Her heart clenched with a mix of guilt and anxiety.


    After finishing in the bathroom, she stood up and was ready to leave.


    Lysander reached out to carry her, but she quickly stepped away, heading for the door to dodge his


    embrace.


    She had been first carried in because she was totally unprepared, but now she had to make her own


    way out. Her legs were not hurt; she just needed oxygen


    The person who hurt his leg was Lysander, and the thought of making him carry her was unbearable.


    Walking with resolute steps, Thssa left the bathroom. Lysander didn''t press further and followed her


    with the oxygen tank in tow.


    Back at the bedside, Thssa reclined and gestured for Lysander to set the tank down, her gaze then


    returning to his leg, silently urging him to tend to his wound.


    Lysanderplied with cing the tank back but didn''t leave her side. Instead, he sat down by her


    bed, locking eyes with her as if afraid she''d vanish the moment he looked away.


    Thssa, seeing that he hadn''t moved to treat his injury, checked the oxygen tank anxiously. It had a


    timer showing how much time was left—just five minutes remaining.


    As soon as the timer hit zero, Thssa quickly removed the oxygen mask and, barely catching her


    breath, urged Lysander, "Go to the infirmary and get that leg looked at now."


    "If I leave, who''s going to watch over you?" he replied.


    Stunned by his concern, she gazed at his handsome face. There was a warmth in his typically cold


    demeanor that left her dazed and incredulous.


    It made her sway and feel incredulous.


    After watching him for a moment, she felt that his deep-set eyes were trying to suck her in. Thssa


    was startled and drifted back to her senses, "I can look after myself. You need to take care of that


    wound, or you might end up with an infection or even worse, a permanent limp. It wouldn''t do for your


    poise."


    "Would you hold that against me?" he asked suddenly.


    Her heart skipped a beat. Already feeling an inexplicable warmth towards him, his question left her


    flustered. She could feel her heart racing erratically.Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024.


    Lysander''s expectant eyes dimmed with a hint of disappointment as he heard her.


    "Rest here," he stowed his gaze and said coldly, turning to leave the room.


    Some fifteen minutester, Lysander returned. Instinctively, Thssa''s eyes darted to his leg. Seeing it


    neatly bandaged and treated, she felt a wave of relief wash over her.

    Lysander sat down on a chair by the bed, pulled out his phone, and made a call for room service.


    After he hung up, Thssa asked him, "How did you find me?"
