After steadying me, he took Nicholas over without hesitation.
"You... Give Nicholas back to me." I tried to take Nicholas back, but I found that my ankle hurt like hell.
The pain made me groan lightly.
Elias quickly noticed it, "What's wrong with your foot?"
"Don't worry about it. Give me back Nicholas."
"Did you sprain your ankle?" He held Nicholas and had to distract himself from checking my injury.
"I said, don't worry about it. Don't you understand? Give me back Nicholas or I'll be rude."
"Wait here, I'll put Nicholas in the car and drive over to pick you up."
"Do you think I'll let Nicholas go with you?" I ignored the pain in my ankle and was determined to snatch Nicholas from him.
Our movements woke Nicholas up.
"Shhhh. Let's not involve the kid in our problems. If I am the least bit careful of Nicholas, I'll die in my boots, okay?"
Saying that, he had already ignored my objection and carried Nicholas away.
