Chapter 213
After entering the pharmacy, the man immediately bought some bandages and a bottle of disinfectant.
Tessa originally thought that they were only going to buy some plasters. Thus, she was a little astonished to see these two items. Isn’t this a little too much!? Who needs bandages and disinfectant for some scratches!?
However, the man gave her no chance to make any objections. He had already torn open the package of bandages and broke the seal on the disinfectant. When he was about to apply the medicine on her, she cleared her throat awkwardly. “I can do it myself.”
The man moved his hands away and avoided her. “Miss, please sit still. Your injuries are on your right hand. I’m sure it’s inconvenient for you to apply the medicine yourself. Let me do it.”
She was a little dumbfounded and mortified, but she could not refuse his kind intentions. Thus, she could only nod and allow him to apply the medicine on her.
“It might burn a little. Please bear with it,” he murmured gently.
She nodded helplessly.
Her gaze was fixed on his face. The more she looked at him, the more familiar he seemed. I’ve definitely met him somewhere before! But, I can’t recall where I met him before.
She blurted out, “Have I seen you somewhere before?”
Upon hearing those words, the man broke into a charming smile. “I thought such pick-up lines were only used by men. I never thought that women would use them
too.”
Those words made her feel a little embarrassed. She had reason to suspect that he had misunderstood something. Moreover, he was laughing at her for being old fashioned. She said dryly, “You’ve misunderstood. I’m not trying to flirt with you. I just find you very familiar-looking. I’m certain I’ve seen you somewhere before.”
The man laughed and shook his head but said nothing. Lowering his head, he continued to dress her wounds in all seriousness. He finally lifted his head when he was done. “It’s done.”
She smacked her head in annoyance. My brain must have short-circuited earlier. That’s why I failed to recognize him. I had no idea that he remained in Brentwood City after the Berlin Philharmonic’s performance. What a shame! Is it too late to tell him that I wasn’t trying to flirt with him because he’s handsome but because I recognized his face? But, he has already
left.
She completely failed to notice that there was a car nearby. The car had been parked there for a very long time, and the person in the car had been quietly looking in their direction all this while. Not only did he take in every move and interaction between these two, but he also inquisitively took some pictures of them.
Kieran smiled and adjusted the sunglasses that he lowered earlier. I can’t believe I ran into this scene when I came out to run an errand.
He was very curious as to what his complicated brother would think after seeing this photo. Therefore, he casually sent the picture he took to his brother.
