C58 I'll be Grateful to You
Not long after the car drove out of the venue, it started to rain.
The air became humid.
This kind of humid feeling was nothing to ordinary people, but it was a torture for Lydia.
At this moment, the scars on her left foot were so itchy because of the change in weather. It was so itchy that she wanted to scratch them with her hands.
Because he was there, she gritted her teeth and endured it out of politeness.
When she couldn't take it anymore, she quietly stepped on her left foot with her right foot, trying to force the itch to retreat.
Itchy!
So itchy!
Lydia lowered her head and increased the strength of her right foot.
However, this kind of clumsy method was useless.
"What's wrong?" Suddenly, Reece's question came from above.
Lydia paused and shook her head. "I'm fine."
It's fine!
It's fine again!
When she heard the word perfunctory, her face was filled with coldness.
He bent down and forcefully picked up the woman who had been stepped on.
Instantly, the scars on her left foot and ankle were reflected in his eyes. He couldn't help but pause. "What happened to this wound?"
Faced with the man's questioning, the softest part of her was that she was being poked right in the heart. She felt sad, pained, hateful, and even sneered at him. All sorts of emotions flashed across her face.
He actually asked her what was going on?
This was really the case of the rich forgetting what happened!
Wasn't all of this because of him?!
The painful memories instantly surged into her mind. Lydia's expression was extremely ugly.
She raised her head and stared at the man in front of her with reddened eyes. "What? Mr. Tillman, have you forgotten?"
Reece frowned. He suddenly sensed something when he looked at the woman's face. His eyes narrowed. "What do you mean?"
"It doesn't mean anything."
As expected, the man had forgotten.
Even if she died, Reece would not care.
Besides, he was just angry and wanted to teach her a lesson for the woman he loved. He only crippled one of her legs.
Lydia's heart froze.
She threw down a sentence and tried to pull her leg back from the man's palm. However, the man was holding her tight, so she struggled for a long time but failed to pull it back.
The man suddenly pulled her over.
Her eyes met with a pair of angry eyes. "Tell me clearly what you meant just now!"
He could clearly feel the questioning and ridicule in the woman's eyes.
"Let go!" Lydia did not explain and once again tried to struggle.
However, the next second, the hand that was holding her ankle tightened. It was the place where her scars were densely packed. Suddenly, a sharp pain spread throughout her body like an electric shock.
Lydia's face turned white from the pain. She froze on the spot and did not dare to move.
When she opened her mouth again, her voice was trembling, "Let... Let go!"
"..." Seeing her in such pain, Reece's hand suddenly loosened.
Lydia shrank back in pain.
Lowering her head, she tried her best to cover the scars on her left foot with her skirt. She didn't want anyone to pay too much attention to her, and she didn't want to fall into the pain of her past.
Seeing her like this, Reece's heart trembled slightly, and he felt a mixture of emotions.
For a moment, no one spoke.
The car became quiet, and only the sound of the raindrops hitting the car window could be heard.
They arrived at the Tillman family's residence.
Lydia stepped on her high heels and got out of the car. Without turning her head, she limped towards the villa.
As he watched her back, the man frowned.
He turned his head and his deep gaze fell on Loran. "Understood."
Although the man didn't say what he wanted to know, Loran understood instantly.
Sixth Brother was determined to find out how she got injured.
"Sixth Brother, I want to invite you to..." He was distracted for a moment. When he raised his head to say something, he realized that the man beside him was already chasing after Lydia.
The corner of Loran's mouth twitched. "..."
Sixth Brother, can you be a little gentler?
Are you trying to bite your brother's life?
Sigh!
Knowing what to do, Loran didn't say anything else. He turned around and sat in the car, letting the driver send him home.
At this moment, there were two people in the courtyard.
Lydia held her injured left leg as she struggled to walk forward. Suddenly, she leaped into the air and shouted in shock, "Ah!!!"
Her legs left the ground, and she subconsciously wrapped her arms around the man's neck. Only then did her heart stop beating.
However, when she saw the man's face clearly, she frowned in disgust. "Reece, put me down!"
"Don't move!" She twisted her body and jumped down. The man's voice came from above her head.
She shuddered and looked at the man with a complicated expression.
Perhaps it was because he noticed her strange expression, but the man looked straight ahead and added, "If you walk in like this, Grandfather will think that I have bullied you."
Yes, that's right.
There was nothing else.
"Okay, I know." In fact, she didn't need to explain it to him.
No matter if it was Reece hugging her or kissing her, she wouldn't be like in her previous life, thinking that she was being overly affectionate.
Since it was for Old Mr. Tillman, she naturally wouldn't resist anymore.
Just like that, the man carried her and continued to walk into the room.
At night.
"Mr. Tillman."
"Okay."
The man politely nodded and continued to read the magazine in his hand.
At this moment, Ora handed him a bag of things. "Mr. Tillman, it's too late. I won't be going up. Please help me pass this to the Young Madam."
"What is this?" Reece's gaze fell on the thick bag.
"Last time, the Young Madam asked me to buy a foot pad."
Reece was stunned for a moment before he took the bag. "A foot pad? What is she doing with it?"
"Since the Young Madam's foot was injured, she has been suffering from a disease. Every time it rains, her left foot will be itchy and painful. So, she always prepared some foot pads in advance and put them on her left foot. It can reduce the pain."
The man's eyes were filled with complicated emotions when he heard Mama Liu's words.
So, the woman in the car had been stepping on her foot because of the itch and pain?
He put down the magazine and went up to the second floor.
When he pushed open the door, he saw that Lydia had already laid down on the floor.
For some reason, the woman was obedient. He felt even more uncomfortable than before.
"Lydia," the man's thin lips slightly opened and he called out. However, the woman did not respond to him.
She was asleep?
But soon, a flash of lightning flashed across his eyes. He saw that the woman's eyelashes were trembling slightly.
He frowned slightly and his eyes became complicated.
"The foot pad is on the bedside. If your foot hurts, you can put it on yourself." He bent down and put the foot pad down. He turned around and walked out of the door.
Pata!
The sound of the door closing came from behind. Lydia slowly opened her eyes.
She glanced at the foot pad by the bed and sat up. She reached out to touch it.
However, the next second, she felt a warm touch on her hand. She was stunned and turned her head to look. Her eyes met a pair of deep eyes in the darkness.
Reece!
He, he didn't go out?
Before she could react, the hand grabbed her and pulled her to the bed. Her head hit the man's chest.
She wanted to get up, but the man held her.
"Tonight, you can sleep on the bed."
