Ex-Wife Don't Leave, Love Is Coming Again! novel Chapter 21

Estella obediently reached out her injured hand to him.

When he saw the wound on her hand, he knitted his brows. “What happened? Were you bullied by the other kids?”

Estella stiffened for a second before shaking her head vigorously.

She wasn't bullied?

Lucian was confused. “Then what happened?”

Estella then picked up her pencil and slowly wrote a few letters on her book —’’treeped”

She then cocked her head to the side, a little dubious of what she had just written.

It was too difficult for her to spell it out.

Whenever she could not spell out a word, she would usually try to spell it according to how it sounded, or she would just skip the word.

However, she did not often write out that word, so she was unsure if she actually spelled it right or not.

“Did you trip?”

Lucian asked after looking at the word she wrote.

Estella nodded.

Lucian then let out a sigh of relief and gently touched the spot she hurt herself at. “Did the teacher treat your wound?”

Estella nodded again.

Lucian nodded before his eyes drifted toward her fair little hands again. “This will take days to heal, and you need to treat the wound. I'll help you, okay?”

Estella did not reject him.

Immediately, Lucian crouched down and lifted her into his arms before going down the stairs.

Once they reached the living room, he placed her on his lap and sat on the couch. At the same time, he said to Catalina, “Bring the medical kit over.

Catalina nodded in response. It did not take her long before she brought the kit over.

Lucian then took out a spray from inside and sprayed it at her bruise. Then, he massaged the area for a while.

It was quite a bad bruise. Even though it had been hours since the initial impact, it still hurt.

Nevertheless, Estella did not kick up a fuss. She just pursed her lips as her brows furrowed.

Lucian turned to study her expression every once in a while to see if he was hurting her.

He lost himself in his thoughts when he saw her frowning face.

She looks a little like that woman when she's solemn.
