Domineering Mr. CEO and His Impudent Love-Chapter 882 - 885: Arousing Aidan Lucas’s Suspicion (2)
Chapter 882: Chapter 885: Arousing Aidan Lucas’s Suspicion (2)
Since he had chosen to treat her as a stranger, why bother with whether she lived or died?
The one he should be concerned about was the woman he had a date with last night.
Lily ignored the man’s words, stubbornly continuing to pick up the pieces of glass with her head bowed.
“I told you to stop picking them up.” The man barked sternly, roughly grabbing the disobedient right hand of the woman.
“Ouch—” Lily winced slightly in pain, feeling a sudden ache in the palm of her right hand.
A red liquid quickly flowed out from the center of her hand.
“You…” The man was so angry he felt like grabbing the little woman, putting her across his knees, and spanking her.
He was already not good at interacting with people, especially women.
He had only seen her right hand reaching for a piece of glass and grabbed her wrist to stop her, not knowing that she was already holding another piece in the palm of that hand.
How could this foolish woman not realize that her doing this caused a sharp pain at the bottom of his heart?
Looking at the bright red blood flowing down from the center of the little woman’s hand, trickling along her fair arm to the elbow and dripping onto the floor, the man’s heart inexplicably skipped a beat.
Strong feelings of unease compelled him to grab the woman’s wrist, pulling her up from the ground with a slight force.
“Hiss—”
Hearing another deliberately suppressed low sob, Aidan Lucas’s frown deepened.

This time, he gave her no chance to harm herself again, directly lifting the pitiful little woman in his arms.
As soon as he embraced the little woman, a familiar fragrance wafted to his nose.
It was the scent of the little woman who had whispered in his ear, wishing him good dreams that night.
It seemed to be…
The man’s dark pupils constricted sharply.
A preposterous suspicion suddenly rose from the depths of his heart.
“Put me down,” she said.
Lily instinctively struggled, but was suppressed by the man’s voice, tinged with a hint of cold harshness, “Your right hand is injured…”
The man’s icy gaze drifted downward, noticing her slightly swollen left ankle.
“Your ankle is swollen too, should I put you down so you can injure yourself again?”
“It was just an accident just now… and besides, my right hand might not have been hurt at all.”
If he hadn’t suddenly grabbed her right wrist, she wouldn’t have been startled into forgetting about the piece of glass she was holding in her right hand.
“Yes, what you say is true,” the man nodded, his expression cold and stern, revealing no emotion.
Lily didn’t understand his meaning when she heard him seriously say, “Indeed, I am the one responsible for injuring your right hand, so now, behave and let me clean your wound.”
After saying this, he made as if to carry her to the lounge next door.
Lily panicked immediately in his arms, struggling, “No need, Mr. Cooper… For such a minor injury, I can treat it myself.”
If she were to be nitpicky, not only the injury on the palm of her right hand but also her left ankle, it was this man’s fault.
If it hadn’t been for his antics last night, she wouldn’t be struggling to stand steady in heels today.
Lily was annoyed with herself, having not trained for so long since she returned to the country.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t have fainted straightaway from the ordeal last night.
Lily was still resisting, but Aidan Lucas didn’t care about her rejections at all.
He carried her straight towards the lounge.
“Mr. Cooper, really, there’s no need, I can…”
“Either let me take care of your wound obediently or like this, I’ll carry you to the hospital,” the man countered, effectively silencing the little woman.
If it had been one day earlier, she might have had the nerve to let the man carry her to the hospital with all eyes on them.
But now, she knew he had found a woman he liked.
