When Shane noticed that her gaze was blank, he nodded slightly and peered at the high-pressure cooker on the kitchen stove.
Charlotte jogged to the kitchen. Hastily, she tried to open the lid of the cooker.
But suddenly, a waft of boiling steam rose from the pot.
"What are you thinking about?" Shane immediately grabbed her arm.
The lid was pushed open by the high-pressure steam. Charlotte fell to the ground as Shane pulled her away, her back hitting hard against the kitchen cabinet.
Charlotte blinked multiple times. She was in a state of stupefaction. "I..."
Shane turned off the stove and bent over to grab her arm. Seeing that her right arm was entirely scalded, he immediately grasped her wrist and took her to the front of the refrigerator. He took out some ice cubes, wrapped them in a cloth, and pressed it on her arm.
It was excruciatingly painful.
Charlotte gritted her teeth without uttering a single word.
