“Tsk, tsk… That cut is so deep, I can almost see the bone Caroline spoke as she bandaged the wound. “What kind of grudge do you have to go this hard? A lide more force, and you’d have lost this hand for good.”
One blood–soaked cotton ball after another landed in the trash. Once she finished cleaning the wound, the long gash became fully visible.
It was at least two to three inches long.
“Good thing it didn’t hit your wrist. Otherwise…” Caroline clicked her tongue. “You wouldn’t have made it out of here today.”
David asked calmly, “Do you want me dead?”
She paused for a moment, then nodded. “Yeah, I do.”
“Honest answer?”
“Of course.” Caroline shrugged. “Either that person should’ve finished the job and taken you out, or you should’ve taken them out first. But this? What’s the point? You’re injured, and now I have to rush over from work to take care of you.”
She was the unlucky one, running back and forth, doing the dirty work, with nothing to gain from it.
David leaned back against the couch lazily. “I’m pretty badly hurt right now, no strength at all. If you wanted to make a move on me… this would be the perfect chance.”
You still have one good hand–more than enough to take me down.” Caroline glanced at him. I’m not stupid enough to take that risk.
He let out a low chuckle. “Caroline, you really are ruthless.”
She actually wished he were dead.
Then again, it made sense. If he were gone, she’d finally be free.
With Harper around, her life would be smooth sailing.
“Not as ruthless as you.” Caroline started wrapping the guze. “Seriously, can’t you just stop–making enemies? Try living a peaceful life for once? Do you even know who’s after you this time? Can you find out? And what’s your plan?”
The wound looked painful just to look at, yet David didn’t make a sound. It was as if the injury wasn’t even
his.
Caroline had been careful, trying not to hurt him, but seemed she was just overthinking it.
David was tough as nails, Even his heart was hard as a rock.
David raised an eyebrow at her. “Caroline, you’re my wife. We’re in this together. If someone wants me dead, don’t you think they’d come after you too? You really think you can stay out of it?”

“I’m just stating a fact.”
Caroline clenched her teeth and yanked the gauze tight around his wound. “As long as you don’t my identity, I’ll be perfectly safel”
David frowned slightly.
He didn’t make a sound, but that didn’t mean he could’t feel the pain.

Seeing his reaction, Caroline tightened the gauze even more on purpose, wrapping it extra snug. “This is the only way to stop the bleeding!”
David shot her a glance but didn’t say a word, letting her do as she pleased.
Yet, Caroline still felt frustrated.
What kind of person was he? Getting attacked was one thing, but now he wanted to drag her down with.
him too.
The more she thought about it, the angner she got.
David could see it written all over her face. His lips curved slightly. “Relax, Caroline. As long as I’m here, no one can lay a finger on you. Your life is perfectly safe
“Yeah,” Caroline nodded seriously, “but for me, the biggest threat isn’t anyone else–it’s you. I won’t die at someone else’s hands. If anything kills the, it’ll be you, David.”
He smirked. “Glad you understand.”
Caroline gritted her teeth, finished wrapping the gauze and tied it off with a firm knot–extra tight, just for 1
him.
“Done!” She clapped her hands and got up.
