My Husband, Warm The Bed novel Chapter 773

"No!" Karen Joy Kyle pouted and whined, like a child who did something wrong but still did not want to admit her mistake.

"Give me your hand!" Nathaniel Cooper's face darkened again, and his voice became colder, as if he was punishing a disobedient child.

"No!" Karen Joy said stubbornly.

She didn't want Brother Lionel to see her scalded hand, or else he would be even more annoyed. She didn't want to see the look of disdain in his eyes.

"Karen, be a good girl. Give me your hand. I will help you deal with the scalding." It was useless to yell at her fiercely, so Nathaniel had to soften his voice.

He did not intend to be fierce at her, but he needed to warn her so that she wouldn't do anything that would hurt herself in the future.

"Don't worry about me." She had been struggling for so long in the evening. She just wanted to make a meal for him with her own hands. How could he yell at her? She felt misunderstood and wronged.

"If you don't want me to worry about you, then who would worry about you?" Nathaniel asked.

"Anyone but you." She had never been this misunderstood before, and in front of her Brother Lionel, she was being stubborn.

"It's my fault, I shouldn't have yelled at you just now." Knowing that this little girl had a particularly stubborn temper, Nathaniel took the initiative to hold her hand. "Let me deal with your wound, or I will feel upset."

His voice became gentle again, which made Karen Joy feel a little warm inside. She could no longer stay stubborn.

"Oh..." Karen Joy obediently showed her hand. She lowered her head like a child who had done something wrong, but still did not look at him.

"Do you know why I yelled at you?" Nathaniel asked as he picked up the cotton ball and dipped it with alcohol to disinfect her hand.

He must have seen the scalding on her hand and felt sorry for her. That was why he had chided her.

Karen Joy knew that.

But she didn't want to say it, because she didn't agree with Brother Lionel's behavior. If he felt sorry for her, he should just say it. Why did he have to yell at her?

Fortunately, she was forgiving. If she was ill tempered, she would probably be in tears already. She thought.

"Don't hurt yourself in the future, do you understand that?" After cleaning, he skilfully applied the medicine to her injury.

He appeared very skilful when applying the medication, it made her feel like he often did these things.

Brother Lionel wasn't that free to always be helping others with their medication. This meant that he must have applied it on himself a lot.

Thinking of the last time when she changed the bandage for him at the earthquake disaster area, he had a lot scars on his body. Karen Joy felt a pain in her heart again. "Brother Lionel..."

"Alright, you should be fine now. I'm really sorry." Hearing that she was still using her nasal voice like she did whenever she was upset, Nathaniel thought that she was still blaming him for yelling at her.

"Brother Lionel, if I'm injured, you'll feel sorry for me, won't you?" she asked.

"Yes, so don't let yourself get hurt in the future," he said.

"Brother Lionel, then you have to promise me that you can't hurt yourself in the future too. Because if you get hurt, I will feel hurt too." Karen Joy looked at him like he was the center of her universe and said gently.

"Karen..." He called her name out and didn't say anything more.

He was born into the prestigious Cooper family, and it was a presidential family. He led a life different from others.

Even his biological mother didn't teach him how to love his loved ones. She didn't teach him how to love the world.
