Half an hour?
She had ignored him yesterday, and he had knelt for nearly an hour in the end!
However, Ormand would not tell her that.
He just shook his head with an honest look. "You applied ointment to my hand. I thought you didn't allow me to apply medicine to my knees."
He quickly added, afraid Viola would realize he was pretending to be pitiful. "It's also because I exercised too late last night and forgot about it."
Viola didn't pay attention to his tricks at all, because Max's words echoed in her ears.
Viola had mixed feelings.
"Does your hand still hurt? Show me."
Ormand obediently opened his left hand and extended it to her.
Even though he had applied ointment to it last night, his palm was still swollen and purplish-red.
"You were so seriously injured last night?"
