Chapter 322
That evening, William drove Ariana Isack to the apartment He had arranged for her. It was close to Glea College and well–equipped. The privacy it offered kept her away from prying eyes.
When they got out of the car, Arlana could barely walk and deeded William’s help just to reach the building
She kicked off her high heels and tossed them onto the ground. She had no intention of ever wearing them again.
“Is it really that bad?”
“Oh, it’s that bad. Next time, Mr. Kingsman, you can wear gh heels and see how you like it. Besides, I’m still hurt. Every step was torture!”
William teased her. “You acted so well I couldn’t tell it was killing you
He reached out to look at the injury on Ariana’s hand.
Obviously, Brian had tried to crush her fingers to see if she was Ariana. Even though her hand turned red, she stayed silent and endured the pain.
“Too bad it was almost healed. Now I have to redo my bandages.”
William asked, “Where do you keep the medicine? I’ll get it for you.”
“Don’t bother. I’m all out.‘
Ariana glanced at her red, aching hand. Then, she went into the bathroom to remove all the concealer and custom silicone patches that hid her wounds. Underneath, her injuries were now fully exposed to the air.
She blew gently on her throbbing hand. “Brian had some special ointment made by experts overseas. It really worked. I used it so often that it’s gone. No idea where to get more.”
That ointment had been designed specifically for her wounds. At first, it helped a lot, but as she used it more, the effects lessened.
Now she had severed ties with Brian, and she wasn’t about to lower herself and ask him for more. She would rather suffer than go crawling back.
“I’ll call my personal doctor. Tomorrow he can check your injuries. If they’re serious, you might need to go to the hospital. Remember, your exams are coming up soon. How will you handle them?”
William added, “I should warn you that this year’s finals are tough. You might fall.”
He obviously doubted her abilities.
