Requiem of a Broken Heart

Chapter 552:

Yvonne felt her heart jolt. She quickly got up and rushed to Jeffrey.

“Let me see your wrist.”

He instinctively pulled his hand back, hiding it.

“Don’t. Just leave it.”

“I have to check your wound,” she said firmly.

Jeffrey hesitated.

“It’s… not something you should see. It looks bad.”

“I won’t feel at ease unless I see it for myself.”

“It’s really nothing to worry about now.”

Seeing that arguing wouldn’t work, Yvonne decided to change tactics.

“Jeffrey, Rachel hasn’t heard anything from the police station. That means you told them not to inform her, right? I know you’re protecting her from worrying. I promise, if you let me check your injury and it’s nothing serious, I won’t tell her either.”

Her words struck a chord. He lifted his gaze, searching her face.

“We should rewrap it fast. You don’t want it to get infected.”

It was obvious he had trouble doing it himself with only one hand.

Yvonne moved to help, but she wasn’t very good at it.

She fumbled a few times, struggling to wrap it properly, accidentally brushing against his wound twice.

“I’m sorry, Jeffrey… I didn’t mean to.”

“It’s okay. Don’t feel bad. I know you and Rachel just want to help,” Jeffrey reassured her.

Remembering that Norton was outside, Yvonne thought of asking for his help. So she quickly dialed his number.

“Hello?” His deep voice came through the line.

Without wasting time, she asked,

“Do you know how to bandage a wound?”

“Are you injured?” His tone immediately became serious.

“No, it’s Jeffrey. I’m not good at this. Could you come in and help?”

“I’ll be right there.”

He didn’t waste words—just took action.
