Genevieve paused, looking at Damon in disbelief. From her limited interactions with him, she knew he wasn’t the type to go out of his way to help others. He certainly wouldn’t personally escort an employee from apany he had invested into the hospital.
Lucia knew Damon was rk’s <b>uncle</b>, but hearing him offer to take N to the hospital sparked a wave of jealousy. She had seen Damon on TV, when he founded Prospectus Technology, and admired him greatly. Meeting him in person, she found him even more handsome than on screen and was instantly smitten.
Moreover<b>, </b>while Damon and rk were <b>uncle </b>and nephew, their positions in the business world differed vastly. If Lucia could be with Damon, she could easily overshadow N in the future.
Thinking this, she quickly said, “N, I’ll apany you. It’s inconvenient for you to go alone and handle. registration and such.”
N nced at Lucia. Initially surprised by Lucia’s sudden kindness, she understood when she noticed Lucia’s lingering gaze on Damon. Did Lucia have a crush on Damon now? Being able to momentarily forget their previous disagreements showed Lucia’s adaptability.Text content ? N?velDrama.Org.
“No need. I can manage on my own.”
That statement was directed at both Damon and Lucia, N briskly walked toward the elevator, and just as she reached it, another figure appeared beside her.
“It’s not convenient to hail a cab right now. I’ll take you. Damon’s cold voice came from above N’s
head.
She looked up to meet his unwavering gaze and frowned. “Mr. Sumner, thank you for your kindness, but there’s no need to trouble yourself.”
As soon as she finished speaking, the elevator arrived. She entered first, and Damon followed.
“I don’t like repeating myself, I also need to go to the hospital, so sending you is just along the way.”
Upon hearing this, N turned to him abruptly. “Did the concentrated sulfuric acid ssh onto you too?!”
N’s widened eyes, as she stared at Damon like a startled rabbit, made him itch to pat her head. However, considering her status, he refrained and averted his gaze, responding with a cool hum.
“Where are you injured?”
N’s eyes filled with guilt. Someone had clearly tried to harm her by switching the dilute sulfuric acid with the concentrated one, and Damon ended up getting involved because of her.
“On my back.”
N reached out to grab his shirt to turn him around and inspect his injuries, but she hesitated halfway, realizing it wasn’t appropriate.
Damon looked at her fair hand by his side, a dark glint crossing his eyes. “What’s wrong?
N withdrew her hand and lowered her gaze. “Mr. Sumner, could you turn around so I can see where exactly you’re injured and how serious it is?”
“Okay.”
Seeing several ck burns from the concentrated sulfuric acid on the back of Damon’s white shirt, N couldn’t help but bite her lip.
“Mr. Sumner, I’m sorry for implicating you today. I’ll cover all your medical expenses,” she said in a guilty
tone.
Damon turned back around. “No need. It won’t cost much.”
Compared to himself, he <b>was </b>more concerned about the injuries on N’s <b>hands</b>. After all, girls cared more about their appearance in his impression. If scars marred her originally wless hands, she would likely be upset.
“It’s not about the money. Today’s incident was my fault, so covering your medical expenses is the least I can do… I’m really grateful that you’re holding <b>me </b>responsible.”
