Zachary then proceeded to send Lenora to the hospital for a check-up.

On the way there, Lenora sent a message to Sophia on Whatthat read: Soph, are you okay? I've been
trampled, and I'm heading to the hospital now. Wait forback at the hotel.
Sophia sent an emoji conveying a sense of relief.
SugarSoph: I'm fine. Gosh! Those secret obsessive fans are just like a cult! How bad are your injuries?
HotNCold: Don't worry. My injuries aren't severe.
SugarSoph: Are you going to the hospital on your own? Where are you now? Letaccompany you.
Lenora glanced at Zachary, who was sitting in the driver's seat next to her. After that, she replied: I've left the
airport now. You just wait forat the hotel.
After a few seconds, Sophia suddenly replied: Nora, | think | saw Tyrant Fuller just now!
Lenora's heart skipped a beat. She glanced guiltily at Zachary, feeling as if she had been caught in a clandestine
meeting with an ex by her current partner. She replied: You must be mistaken, right? How could he be here? After
sending the message, Lenora, on tenterhooks, stared at the screen.
SugarSoph: Maybe | was mistaken. Let's talk later. The bus is here. I'll head back to the hotel and wait for you.
Lenora let out a sigh and replied: All right.
The diagnosis for Lenora was a minor concussion. She would be fine after resting for a couple of days.
Besides, Lenora's body was covered in various bruises and external injuries. The doctor had prescribed her an
ointment to promote blood circulation and reduce swelling.
Zachary held the ointment in his hand. Turning to Lenora, he said, "Let's go. I'll take you back to the hotel."
Lenora glanced a few times at the ointment in Zachary's hand. However, Zachary acted as if he hadn't. noticed.
Instead, he put the ointment into his own pocket.
Lenora could only say, "Givethe ointment. I'll go back on my own."
Zachary looked at her with a displeased gaze. "Are you discarding someone after using them?"
Feeling guilty, Lenora averted her gaze and put on a brave face. "I've already gone through the check-up. I'm
fine. | can get back to the hotel on my own. If you escort me, Soph might see us," she said. "What's the issue if
she saw us? Can't we not be seen together?"
"Well, you're the one who cannot be seen."
Zachary chuckled. "Letput it differently, then. I'm heading back to the hotel, and | can give you a lift

on the way. That should be all right, right?"

Lefora didn't know what to say. How could | have forgotten? Since Zachary is following me, he's surely staying at
the shotel as me!
When they arrived at the hotel, Lenora stood at the doorway and cast a glance at Zachary. "I'm here. You can
leave now."
Zachary didn't even shift his stance. "Aren't you going to invitein?"
Lenora firmly shook her head. "No!"
"You have a wound on your back. How are you going to apply the medicine yourself?"
"I can ask Soph to help me." Lenora watched Zachary cautiously, making sure he wouldn't overstep her
boundaries.
"All right, then. Go on in. Once you're inside, I'll leave," Zachary reluctantly agreed, passing over the ointment.
Lenora looked at him with a hint of suspicion in her eyes, taking the ointment from him. "Really?" Really."
Lenora reached into her pocket and pulled out a keycard. With a swift swipe and a soft beep, the door was open.
She was about to turn her head and speak to Zachary when a strong force suddenly hit her from behind. The
door was shut with a bang.

By the tshe gathered her bearings, Zachary had already pushed her against the door of the room.
Lenora gritted her teeth. "Zachary! You've deceivedagain!"
If she ever put her trust in Zachary again, she'd be a complete fool.
A glint of triumphant amusement flashed in Zachary's eyes. He raised a finger to his lips. "Shh..."
Lenora was about to say something more when she heard Sophia's voice from outside. "Nora, you're back? What
did the doctor say?"
Lenora tightly shut her mouth, glaring at Zachary.
After a while, Sophia was heard muttering to herself, "Huh? Could it be that | heard it wrong?"
As soon as Sophia returned to her room, Lenora immediately pushed Zachary away. "Get out!"
Without any change in his expression, Zachary took the ointment from her hand and sat down by the couch. As
he opened the ointment box, he said, "I'll help you apply the medicine, and once that's done, I'll leave." Lenora
raised her hand to her forehead.

"If you want to spend more twith me, you can continue to drag your feet," Zachary said.
Lenora glared at Zachary, her eyes as sharp as knives.

Feeling helpless, she grabbed a box of cotton swabs and placed it on the table. She then sat down next to
Zachary, lifting her skirt up to her knees.
Her previously flawless legs were then marred with a myriad of bruises in various shades of blue and purple.
There was a particular spot that looked as though it had been stepped on by a high heel, leaving a deep imprint.
The skin around the edge was broken. A certain emotion swirled in the depths of Zachary's profound gaze. His
large hand gently caressed her bruised calf. "Does it hurt?" he asked,
In truth, it didn't hurt as long as it wasn't touched.
However, Zachary's touch was too gentle, as light as a feather brushing past, causing a ticklish and tingling
sensation that made Lenora's skin break out in goosebumps. "Apply the medicine quickly!"
Zachary's face darkened. He squeezed sointment onto a cotton swab and pressed it onto a bruised
area.
"Ah!" Lenora sharply inhaled, caught off guard by the sudden pain. "Zachary, can't you be a bit more gentle!"
"Sorry. You toldto hurry, and | forgot to be gentle," Zachary said, calmly squeezing out a bit more ointment.
Lenora couldn't help but shoot him another two glares. Zachary, this scoundrel, is definitely doing it on purpose!
The ointment was applied to the skin, and it was cooling and soothing.
Upon lifting her gaze, Lenora saw Zachary's serious expression. His eyes were focused and completely absorbed
as if dealing with a matter of great importance.
From Lenora's perspective, Zachary's eyelashes were long and thick, each one distinctly visible. His nose was
high and prominent, his features sharply defined. Suddenly, Zachary lifted his gaze, locking eyes with Lenora.
Lenora quickly averted her gaze, pretending to look casually elsewhere.
"I'm done with your legs. Are there any other injuries apart from your back?" Zachary's lips curled up slightly.
"No."
"Sprawl out on the couch, then."
Lenora sprawled out on the couch, a thought suddenly striking her. She turned to look at Zachary, who seemed
intent on lifting her dress. Hastily, she scrambled up, holding down her skirt. "I'm fine. There's no need for you to

"Oh, please. | promise | won't look around randomly. If | do, then I'm a dog
Lenora hesitated.

Zachary firmly pushed her down. "Stop overthinking. It's not like | have never seen your body before. Tending to
your injury is more important."
She knew well that nothing nice would ever cout of Zachary's mouth.
Her dress was lifted up to her back, leaving Lenora with a chilling sensation, particularly on her thighs and
buttocks.
The cool ointment was then applied to the wound. Zachary tossed the cotton swab into the trash bin and placed
the ointment on the table. He fell silent for a couple of seconds before making a sound. "Woof!"
Lenora was stunned for a few seconds, suddenly realizing what was happening. Her face flushed red, though it
was unclear whether it was from embarrassment or anger.
"Zachary! Get out of here!"
She grabbed a throw pillow and hurled it at Zachary.
A hint of amusement flashed in Zachary's eyes as he observed Lenora's ruffled demeanor. He caught the pillow
and tossed it back onto the couch.
Lenora picked it up and threw it back.
Zachary caught it again and said, "Don't be upset. I'm leaving right now."
He set down the pillow, turned, and walked away.
"Halt!"
Suddenly, Lenora called out to him again.
Zachary halted, casting a puzzled gaze toward Lenora. "Have you suddenly realized you can't bear to part with
me?"
Lenora's mouth twitched. "Keep on dreaming!"
She rose from the couch and moved to stand before Zachary. In a serious tone, she said, "Zachary, for the sake
of you savingthis time, I'll overlook the fact that you deceived me. Go back immediately, and | don't want
you to followanymore!"
