CHAPTER 17: His medicine

  Peter was sitting on the chair of his office, not knowing how to deal with Julia. Seeing her cuddling with Elliot, she surely should be punished, however he was afraid that Victor would kill him for hurting her. Victor would also rage if he knew that Julia was wrapped in Elliot’s arms.

  Peter closed his eyes, crossed his arms and kept shaking his legs. His actions made Julia anxious and worried, she didn’t know how to start or justify herself, yet he didn’t start too.

  Julia raised her head and stared at Peter, waiting for his response. Then, she broke the silence and said: “Mr. Louis, it is not like what you think.”

  “…” Peter did not react and kept hearing her words.

  “It is only that… Only that I was cleaning his wound and he pulled me into his bosom… I tried stopping him, however I was worried to hurt him by mistake… And… And he didn’t let go of me!”

  “Is it your duty to clean his wound?”

  “Eh?”
