Celine lowered her gaar in sadness, but she still wanted to get up.
Let me go! His smile widened a little.
Are you angry?! Celine was battled by his words.
Am I in the position to be angry? I was too rough today.
Did you get hurt? he asked.
Adam touched her waist gently and asked softly, is it this spot Celine had taken a look during the shower.
Her waist had a nasty bruise, and it would take some time to recover completely.
