Chapter 557 It's Just A Fracture

Veronica Parker turned around and caught him deeply drowned by his own thoughts.

The feeling of being stared at was too strong. Veronica Parker raised Nick Cage's face, and his eyes shrank uncontrollably as he crashed into the dark eyes that were deeper than the night.

They were even more obscure.

Veronica Parker stumbled for words to break the mood. "Did you use to visit here more often?"

"No."

Veronica Parker thought, has the luxury house been bought just because it was available? It seemed like poverty limited her imagination too much!

Then Nick Cage moved closer to her, obscuring the only starlight in the night.

"Do you like it here?" Nick Cage locked her black eyes with his curious ones and Veronica Parker did not answer. So he spoke again, "You can come more often in the future."

Veronica Parker was dumfounded and left pondering over the meaning of his words.

Does 'come here often' mean her, or her and him? Or with the six little ones?

"Well, you can bring the six little ones over! Peter only likes to play with sand!" Veronica Parker said.

"I'll play with you." Nick Cage squeezed her chin and her black eyes knew something not good might happen.

Veronica Parker's lips trembled out of control as her voice seemed to have betrayed her that moment, her heart beat became rather unsteady and her face turned red.

The next moment, Nick Cage was already hovering over Veronica Parker on the sofa, pinning her down, and the temperature in the air suddenly rose as if they were just about to be burnt.

Veronica Parker was gasping for breath and Nick Cage was like a Neanderthal that would eat her alive!

"Nick Cage, you..." Veronica Parker panicked and struggled.

"Hmm?"

"You give me – ah!" Veronica Parker suddenly pushed Nick Cage hard and didn't expect that two of them would fall off the sofa. She let out a loud cry and closed her eyes, ready to feel the pain she was about to get.

'I don't feel any pain.'

When she opened her eyes, she saw that it was Nick Cage who came in direct contact with the ground and Veronica Parker safely fell into Nick Cage's arms as if those were her only seatbelt pulling her back into safety.

As soon as they fell into this awkward position, the fiery atmosphere instantly dissolved into thin air.

Nick Cage's black eyes flashed menacingly and stared at the dazed state of Veronica Parker. "Are you still enjoying the moment? Huh?"

'Enjoying, my ass!'

Veronica Parker flushed at his remark. "Let me go!"

Nick Cage let go of her, and Veronica Parker stood up and pulled up the strap of her dress that had been pulled down her shoulder considering their little 'stunt' earlier. It was almost torn!

Nick Cage got up later.

Veronica Parker thought of something and asked, "Is your shoulder all right?"

"Not at all."

Veronica Parker was surprised. "Oh, no, is it broken?" When Nick Cage did not move or speak, she came forward to check his shoulder.

However, Nick Cage's shirt was black and should there be any blood, it would be nearly impossible to know right away.

'I don't know how badly injured he is so it's not good for me to just randomly move my hand. What if I accidentally touched his wound?'

"Go to the bathroom." Nick Cage ordered.

"Why should I go to the bathroom?" Veronica Parker asked, but instead of answering her, she was forcefully dragged into the bathroom by Nick Cage.

Veronica Parker's sight flashed in a blur. Nick Cage pressed her against the wall and the movement was too sudden and strong!

Veronica Parker inhaled a sharp breath and responded, "You – you lied to me? Get away from me!"

She shoved him angrily. 'I don't know if it was Nick Cage's wound that I pressed, but I heard him groan.'

Veronica Parker's body froze upon realizing something.

In a flash, she saw that his arm was soaked. She was extremely baffled as it could only be blood!

"Don't worry, it's just a fracture." Nick Cage leaned forward and took a bite at Veronica Parker's parted lips.

Would a fracture even bleed? Nonetheless, he seemed calm and rather indifferent as if the injury there was just a layer of oil that could be taken lightly!

And Veronica Parker came to the conclusion that Nick Cage was a man who was very hard on himself!

People who were ruthless to themselves would not know the importance of other people treating them with care.

Veronica Parker shifted slightly to her side and the light from the wall lamp spilled trance on her little face.

One thing was for sure, and it was that Nick Cage's wound opened and his shirt was stained with indistinct blood. Right after his wound was re-bandaged, the two of them lied on the bed.

Veronica Parker won't sympathize with him. He deserved it!
