Chapter 1227
Naomi got up on her own, but her ankle hurt badly after taking two steps forward.
Francisco walked over and grabbed her arm. “There’s no need for you to force yourself to walk if it hurts.” Just as she was about to withdraw her arm, Francisco suddenly picked her up in a bridal carry.
Naomi was shocked. “You-”
“I’ve never seen a woman as dumb as you.” He gnashed his teeth and left the scene with her in his arms
The sudden plot twist made Naomi feel extremely flustered, and she did not know where she should keep her eyes fixed on. All she could do was stay in his arms
obediently and quietly, listening to her heart beat at an unreasonably fast rate.
They came to a lounge that was located next to the banquet hall. Francisco put her on the couch and frowned when he saw that she had been holding her palm. “Open your hand.”
She spread her palm obediently, and a few drops of blood oozed out of the wound on her palm.
Francisco went out and asked the waiter to get him a first-aid kit. After a while, he came in with a first-aid kit and sat down right next to Naomi.
Naomi looked up at him. “I’ll do it myself.’
“Is it convenient for you to apply ointment with your left hand?” Francisco grabbed her hand, pulled it closer to him, and started applying the ointment on her wounds without even lifting his head.
She hissed and wanted to withdraw her hand, but he tightened his grasp. “Don’t move.”
Naomi stopped moving and looked scrupulously at how he was applying ‘medicine to herself. The distance between the two of them was obviously not close, but she felt that it was their first time coming so close.
She was so close to him that she could count each and every strand of his eyelashes, and the scent of his shampoo seemed to smell nice. She gulped, but that was when Francisco lifted his head too.
She was startled, so she lowered her head hurriedly, looked away, and withdrew her hand. “Okay.”
She then thought of something and pouted.
“Thank you.”
“What do you like about me?” He stared at her.
