Chapter 453 Someone Special


    As soon as she finished speaking, Xander pulled her into his embrace, whispering in her ear,


    "Okay."


    Their bodies pressed close together, and Grace could distinctly feel the thudding of her heart


    against her chest.


    She struggled to escape from his embrace.


    "Where''s the first aid kit? I''ll tend to your wounds."


    "There''s no need for that. The doctor has already taken care of it."


    "It''s okay. It seems like your wound has reopened," Grace said, then turned around and began


    looking for the first aid kit.


    Watching her bustle around, Xander smiled and stood up, walking toward another cab.


    "The first aid kit is here."


    Slightly embarrassed, Grace hurriedly took the kit from him. "Sit down. I''ll change your dressing."


    Xander obediently did as told. His eyes were fixed on her as they sat on the couch.


    Grace opened the first aid kit, took out the tools, and carefully tended to his wound. Her actions


    were gentle, each one done with the utmost care until she removed the original bandage and finally


    saw the extent of his injury.


    It looked like it had been caused by a sharp de.


    Grace''s brows furrowed. She sensed that the injury was unusual, and the thought nagged her.


    "Xander, how exactly did you get hurt?"


    Xander didn''t want to worry her and simply said, "It was a minor ident. Nothing serious."


    Seeing that he was reluctant to say more, she didn''t press further. "Be more careful in the future.


    Don''t get yourself hurt again."


    As she spoke, she took a cotton swab and put on some ointment, carefully treating his wound.


    After the wound was bandaged, Grace finally breathed a sigh of relief. Upon closer inspection, she


    realized that, due to her nervousness, her forehead was already covered in fine sweat.


    "This wound needs to be dressed regrly so it can heal faster."


    "Okay, I understand."


    After packing the first aid kit away, Xander took the opportunity to make a phone call. "Come to my


    ce in five minutes."


    Grace was curious and asked, "Xander, who are you calling?"


    Xander ended the call and replied, "You''ll know soon."


    Grace was somewhat curious. Not long after, the doorbell rang, and she got up. "I''ll open the door."


    She hadn''t walked far when Xander suddenly tugged on her arm.


    "It''s okay. He''lle in by himself."


    Grace looked puzzled, and then the door opened. Heavy footsteps approached them, and Grace


    could see someone.


    It was a stranger she had never met before. He wore a grave expression, and his face was hard to


    read.


    Upon seeing Grace, the man respectfully greeted her, "Ms. Lewis."


    Grace was puzzled and asked, "Do you know me?"


    Xander then spoke, "Gracie, he''s my personal assistant, Peter Miller."


    "Your personal assistant?"


    "If you can''t reach me in the future, you can directly contact him."


    When he heard that, Peter took out a business card from his pocket and handed it over. "This is my


    number, Ms. Lewis."

    Grace took it, still somewhat confused. "Xander, what is this?"


    "Gracie, this way, you''ll always be able to find me."


    Understanding dawned on Grace, and her heart filled with warmth.


    She had just mentioned it casually, but he had taken it to heart and quickly decided to provide her


    with a sense of security.


    Smiling, she replied, "Okay, I understand."
