Chapter 381 Faceless Drawing
“Let me see his injuries.”
Mnie pulled the woman up and approached the boy.
She carefully examined the boy’s injuries. While they were all external injuries, they hadn’t been disinfected, so by now all his
wounds were already infected and swollen. When she was little and went foraging for herbs with her grandfather, she’d also
helped to bandage wounds for the hunters in the mountains. She could
roughly remember how to deal with these wounds.
Removing the bandages from the wounds was like reopening the wounds after the skin and flesh had regrown; it was extremely
painful, but the boy simply endured it all as he clenched his fists. His tears wet his eyes, but
he said nothing at all.
“Does it hurt?” Mnie couldn''t help but ask.
The boy shook his head. “No.”
Mnie felt even more pity for him and immediately asked the woman that was taking care of him, “Why
wouldn''t Harlow ask for a doctor to treat his injuries?”
“Ah, miss... Please... Don’t say that...”
The woman seemed to be extremely afraid of Harlow as she wiped her tears away. “We''re of a lower status
than him, so whatever he says, goes.”
“What kind of era are we living in right now? How can you be any lower than him?!”
Mnie was furious as Harlow’s arrogant face appeared in her mind. “I''ll go find a doctor for him.”
“Please don’t, miss! Thank you for wanting to help, but you can’t fetch a doctor... You can’t...” The woman got to her knees
immediately, begging her.
If Mnie were to ask for a doctor, would Harlow use even more despicable methods to deal with them?
“Does Joseph know about this?” Mnie asked the most important question.
The woman controlled her sobbing and said, “Everyone in this courtyard is under Master Harlow’s control. No one will interfere
with his decision.”
Mnie understood what was happening: it meant that no one in this courtyard would give a damn about what was happening
with Harlow’s private matters, even if they were a matter of life and death.
Her eyes slightly narrowed. “Wait for me. I''ll get some medicine for the inmmation.”
With that, Mnie stood up and left. The woman paused for a little and asked, “What’s your name, miss?”
“It''s not important.”
Mnie smiled and looked at her, asking, “Is he your son?”

She felt that this woman cared about the injured boy, but in her love for him, there was also a sense of distance toward him. It
didn''t feel like a mother’s love for her son.
The woman''s eyes slightly lost focus, and she nodded as she stammered.
Mnie pursed her lips and said nothing, immediately leaving the room.
Then, she heard the woman say to the boy, “Don’t be scared, we''ve finally met someone important to us! | told you, you have a
great destiny in front of you. You will definitely be helped by people in this world.”
“Beautifuldy!”
“Beautiful! Lady!“the boy said with a nod.
“That’s right. That beautifuldy just now wille and save youter, but this is our secret, alright? Don''t tell anyone,” the
woman said again.
“Alright! Secret!”Material ? of N?velDrama.Org.
“Secret!”
Mnie slightly frowned. The boy was almost ten, but that was how he spoke?
She once again returned to the ce the servant had escorted her to and waited there.
After a while, the servant came over with a ss of water and gave it to Mnie before leading her away
again.
It was only after passing Harlow’s residence did she finally reach Leo’s residence.
Leo’s room was lively.
Several people whom Mnie didn’t know were concerned about Leo, but she didn’t expect Harlow to be here
as well.
When Leo saw Mnieing by, Leo quickly greeted her. “You can stay for a while in my study. Please give
me a little time.”
“Are your injuries alright?” she asked.
As she said that, she nced at the tray on Leo’s bedside table. There was equipment used for cleaning wounds there, such as
cotton swabs, bandages, iodine, and even a few boxes of anti-inmmatory drugs.
“It’s fine. It’s just a small wound,” Leo smiled as he shook his head and moved his arm that had been bandaged earlier, signaling
to her that he was fine.
Seeing that they still hadn''t finished their conversation, Mnie then turned around and entered the study that
was connected to the room.
The study was very neat and organized, just like Leo himself.
There were quite a few drawings that attracted Mnie’s attention, and they were all of the same man; the man in the drawings
had short hair, was slightly skinny, and had a strong and defined face.

The person who had made the drawings was quite skilled. They used multiple colors to draw the man’s figure
and hair, and the lines were all quite spirited. But strangely, none of the men in the drawings had any facial
features.
