Chapter 1049

Arabella shook her head.

“The resort stocks only the usual over-the-counter medicines. They don’t have any special stuff. Some might sting your wound, if it hurts, let me know. I'll have someone fetch some different ones."

"No need to go to all that trouble." Arabella smiled, "I'll be heading back soon."

"You're already here. Why don't you invite your friends for dinner before you leave?” Romeo wrapped up the wound on her calf, then disinfected the one on her arm.

Holding her soft hand, he couldn't help but feel a pang of discomfort seeing the wound on her delicate fair skin.

Arabella thought of her two friends enjoying the hot springs. By now, they must be starving.

“Alright, we'll grab something to eat before we leave."

There probably won't be much to eat when they return to the campus.

After Romeo finished dressing her wounds, he pulled her into a warm embrace.

"I haven't seen you much these past few days." He looked into her eyes, a hint of regret in his voice. "You've been really busy."

“Aren't we together now?" Arabella smiled at him. "Get up. The floor is cold."

Romeo remained kneeling on the floor, greedily inhaling her scent, unwilling to let her go.

Arabella lightly patted his back. “The hairpin you gave me is really useful. I'll always keep it with me."

“I'd prefer if you kept me with you.” Romeo lowered his gaze to look at her, once again succumbing to the urge to kiss her lips.

"Bella."

Joyce, helping a limping Mavis, found them in this intimate moment, and was instantly stunned.
