Chapter 462 Bleeding Wounds, Aching Hearts: Scarlett's Pain for Trenton
Upon seeing Scarlett's delicate and endearing demeanor, coupled with her pitiable eyes gazing at him, Trenton's anger dissipated instantly. Feeling uneasy, he turned his head away, purposefully avoiding Scarlett's gaze. "You needn't worry; this injury is insignificant."
He had completely forgotten about scolding Scarlett.
Scarlett heard this and didn't believe it at all. In Silvercrest, even a small cut on her finger would hurt a lot. How could such a big wound be nothing?
Scarlett clearly felt a sharp pain in her chest. She raised her hand to her chest, taking deep breaths, her face flushed with redness.
Trenton turned back to look at her. He saw Scarlett with her hand on her chest, breathing heavily, her face unnaturally red. He was startled and pulled Scarlett over, placing her on his lap. Looking down at her, Trenton asked, "What's wrong? Don't scare me. Adam, quickly check on her."
Scarlett shook her head at Adam, then looked at Trenton, her eyes red and her face round, looking very pitiful. She gasped and said, "I'm fine. It's just that when I saw Trenton bleeding, it hurt here."
Saying this, she curiously clenched her fist and pounded her chest.
Adam thought, 'Fuck! Future Mrs. Trenton is just too cute. She said that so sweetly! How could Trenton possibly resist?'
Seeing this, a flash of surprise crossed Trenton's eyes. He quickly reached out and grasped Scarlett's fist, his large hand completely enveloping hers, and commanded sternly, "Let go."
Scarlett sniffled and released her fist, saying, "But it still hurts here. When I see you bleeding, it hurts."
Hearing this, Trenton was extremely uncomfortable. He glanced at Adam, who was already stunned, his face darkening. He said in a deep voice, "Hurry up."
Trenton thought, 'Didn't you hear that Scarlett feels uncomfortable seeing me bleed?'
Adam snapped back to reality and quickly bandaged the wound for Trenton. He finished quickly and, not daring to linger, grabbed his medical kit and got out of the car.
Adam sighed. 'Too bad, I can't keep watching.'
Scarlett sat on Trenton's lap, very puzzled. She looked up at Trenton's wound again. It was already bandaged, wrapped in sterile gauze, layer upon layer, with no blood in sight, but her chest still hurt.
Then, she lowered her eyes. At such a close distance, her gaze fell on Trenton's bare chest.
The elegantly defined muscles of his chest, coupled with his healthy bronze skin, immediately conveyed an impression of solidity, stature, and strength.
Scarlett's chest no longer hurt; instead, her heart was racing. Earlier, with some distance between them and Adam present, she didn't feel anything. Now, sitting on Trenton's lap, looking at him up close, she felt her face burning.
Suddenly, Trenton reached out, rubbing her chest, and asked worriedly, "Does it still hurt?"
Scarlett felt a strange sensation surge up. She yelped and rolled off Trenton's lap.
