Upon hearing what John said, Sophia shot him a glare. “I was standing behind Logan!” She then
proceeded to mumble, “That nitwit isn’t even half as capable as Ian.”
There was a pause in John’s movements as soon as Ian was mentioned, which reminded him of when
Ian held Sophia in his arms. There was a tear to the back of his shirt, but John wasn’t sure if he was
hurt. He has quite a good reflex, John thought, and the thought of it irked him.
While the wound on Sophia’s leg wasn’t that serious, John still offered, “I’ll bring you to the hospital to
have it bandaged.”
Sophia’s mouth hung agape as soon as she heard they were going to the hospital. “Is it that serious?”
John buckled her up before driving off, figuring that Logan’s presence would be enough to hold them
off. Sophia was carried in his arms upon their arrival at the emergency department.
The doctor on duty—who was an acquaintance of John’s—stood from his seat when John carried
Sophia over to him. “John?”
Meanwhile, John was feeling more relieved upon seeing the doctor. “Mr. Holt, this is Sophia, and her
leg was injured, so I brought her over to have it treated.”
With haste, the doctor examined Sophia’s wound. From a doctor’s perspective, any wound was a
wound worth attention. While retrieving some antiseptic and gauze, the doctor had John carry her over
to the bed. Sophia held onto John’s arm as she said, “I’m scared.” She was no longer the foolhardy girl
who feared nothing.
After giving it some thought, John pulled her into an embrace while consoling her, “It’s alright. It won’t
hurt a lot.”
The doctor chuckled upon seeing her reaction. “It’s not that big of a deal, as all you need is a dressing.
You don’t even need a vaccine for tetanus.” Nonetheless, Sophia dared not look as she buried her face
in John’s arms while the doctor cleaned and wrapped up her wound. “I’m done. You’ll be alright in two
days, but beware that the wound doesn’t come into contact with water.”
Sophia was still holding onto John’s waist when she looked up at him to speak in a pitiable tone, “I
don’t have the strength to walk.” It was thus John carried her in his arms as he left after bidding the
doctor goodbye.
After pondering about it, Sophia tried to reach for her phone, only to be stopped by John, who wore a
frown on his face. “Don’t move.”
She let out a cry of surprise. “I want to give Ian a call to inquire about things on his side.”
There was a sour look on John’s face as he spoke, “You seem to care about him a lot.”
She wore a pout while asking, “Why do you look so gloomy? Can’t I ask him one question?”
She wore a pout while asking, “Why do you look so gloomy? Can’t I ask him one question?”
Her query was met with silence as John carried her into the car. As soon as they settled into it, Logan’s
call came through without having her to make a call. She quickly forgot about the wound on her leg as
she picked up the call.
From what Logan said, he already left the Morgans after giving them a harsh scolding, yet none of
them dared retort him, perhaps due to the threat he issued beforehand, so all they could do was hope
that Logan would leave them alone after he’d had enough. Logan also inquired Sophia on her injury, to
which she replied, “It’s already bandaged up. The doctor said it’s not a big deal, so I will be going home
for today. Sorry for not being able to play with you today.”
Nor was Logan in the mood to gamble, so he hung up after telling her to take care, and he would
contact her again when he had time. Sophia leaned back in her seat while crossing her legs slowly as
John opened up, “Buckle up. I’ll begin the drive now.”
She hummed in the affirmative while buckling up, after which the car drove away. They spent the
journey in silence up until they arrived at home. John would then get out of the car to open the door for
her.
