Chapter 1359 Bringing Water for Her Foot Bath
Bert was afraid she was in pain, too. After quickly taking care of her injured finger, he couldn't help but advise,
"Alright, you should avoid contact with water tonight."
"Huh?" Alivia was so caught off guard that she didn't even care about the tension between them. Pointing at her
mouth, she said, "I haven't brushed my teeth or washed my face yet."
"No need to wash."
"It's not that serious, is it?"
Seeing her about to argue, Bert looked at her and said, "If you knew it would be inconvenient, why didn't you be
more careful?"
Alivia turned away; a bit annoyed. She didn't want to get hurt. Wasn't it because he had distracted her with the

It was all because of her clumsiness that she ended up getting injured.
Looking at her quiet and moping face, Bert knew she was a clean freak. He sighed with an air of indulgence and
exasperation. No matter how impatient he sounded, his actions were swift, "Fine, I'll help you."
Alivia blinked, "How will you..."
Before she could finish, Bert had already walked straight into the bathroom. He took the only cup, filled it with
warm water, squeezed toothpaste onto the toothbrush, and handed it to her, "Do it."
Looking at the toothpaste, almost the size of a thumb cap on the toothbrush, Alivia's eyelids twitched, "You used too
much toothpaste."
With this amount, the foam from brushing her teeth might just cover her entire face.
Bert was not accustomed to taking care of people. Doing this was already a first for him. He had to wash off the
excess toothpaste and squeeze less, "Is this enough?"
"That's enough, perfect," Alivia took it, rinsed her mouth, and shoved the toothbrush in. She didn't dare to waste
too much time, her movements sped up unconsciously as she noticed his slightly dark face.
After five minutes, she was done brushing. Her breath was much fresher, but she was not done yet. She still needed
to wash her face.
But Bert couldn't help her with washing her face. She hadn't really been out today, only took a stroll at noon. Wiping
her face with a wet towel was acceptable.
The last step was washing her feet.
Romy had bought her a pink foot bath specifically for soaking feet, which was now quietly resting in the corner.
Alivia was somewhat embarrassed to ask him to handle her foot washing. Would he be disgusted?
While she was indecisive, Bert accurately spotted the foot bath following her gaze.

The pink color, contrasting with his sharp handsome face, created an intense sense of discordance... Especially
considering that there was a peony flower printed at the bottom of the basin. It really wasn't fitting the scene.
Alivia Elton's ears were slightly flushed. She was a little embarrassed and her voice was lowered a few times, "Well,
help me light some hot water. It's a little hotter than normal."
To her surprise, Bert didn't complain at all. He rolled up his sleeves methodically. As he undid the crystal buttons and
rolled up his sleeves, Alivia suddenly found the foot bath somewhat awkward.
She had never thought that someone could look so handsome while preparing a foot bath.
While she was lost in her thoughts, Bert's focus was on something completely different. Whether it was the
toothpaste or the foot bath, he could handle it all. The important thing was that after the small 'incident', she was
no longer as reserved or resistant to him as before.
It was as if they had suddenly crossed a barrier, and that invisible gap had been eliminated.
