Chapter 110
The two people at the dining table were stunned.
Leo, who brought the food over, had a calm expression. After putting down the small bowl, he did not
say anything. He took a tissue to wipe his hands and was about to leave.
Amber was the first to react. She raised her hand and slapped Leo’s butt.
hat the hell
are you going? Can’t you see that Madison has already finished eating? Why are you serving the
pawns now?”
The crisp sound stunned Leo. His entire body suddenly tensed up, and he stopped wiping his fingers in
midair. He subconsciously looked at Madison.
The latter probably did not expect Amber, who usually cared about her image, to do this. Madison could
not help but smile.
Leo pursed his lips and looked away unnaturally.
He glanced at the food on the table again and frowned slightly. “You guys finished. eating just like
that?”
The food on the table was almost untouched. It was almost the same as when he was
chased away. It was equivalent to not eating at all.
Amber snorted softly, “It’s all because you’re here that Madison and I have no appetite.”
Leo was speechless
He did not refute her. This made Amber like him a lot more. When she spoke again, she finally put in a
good word for him.
“It’s been hard on you to peel so many prawns. It’s a waste not to eat them. Madison, how about you
make do with some? There were not many. Bring them to the coffee. table and eat them as snacks.”
Amber turned her head to look at Madison with a fervent gaze. “You’re eating too little tonight. The food
I made doesn’t suit your taste. But the prawns were cooked by Maya.
Eat more.”
At this point, Madison found it hard to refuse.
But she still declined. “Amber, the food you make is quite delicious. I’m not too hungry, so I don’t eat
much. The prawns…”
“You ate so little just now, and you can still handle these. Just take them as snacks!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAmber got up from the chair and stuffed the bowl into Madison’s hand. Without giving

her a chance to speak, Amber turned to the kitchen and shouted at the top of her lungs, “Maya, come
and clean up the dining table. We’re all done eating!”
Maya replied, “Right away!”
Madison could not sit down at the dining table anymore. She was the one who finished. eating first.
Amber had already stood up, so it would be impolite for her to sit any longer.
She could only leave with the small bowl when Maya came out with the rag to clean the
table
Amber pushed her and said, “Madison, go sit on the sofa for a while. I’ll prepare some fruits for you.”
As for Leo, she didn’t even look at him.
Even Madison felt that Amber had gone too far. Although Amber disliked her son, she shouldn’t do it
that way.
“Let’s go together?”
She took the initiative to speak to Leo.
It was not that she pitied him. She just felt that she could not ruin the relationship between Amber and
Leo just because she had come to his house as a guest.
As for Leo going to the hospital to see Sally, Madison was a little uncomfortable. However, on second
thought, shouldn’t he go see the person he liked?
Even if Leo protected Madison last night, it was only because he disapproved of his sweetheart’s
actions. It did not mean that Sally was a passerby in Leo’s heart.
How could feelings be so easily erased? For example, she would still be affected by Leo and could not
let go completely. Her rationality had been fighting against her emotions.
She only spoke to Leo because she wanted to reconcile with herself.
It was so tiring to keep harping on these things.
After saying this, Madison felt relieved. The smile on her face also brightened. She even developed an
appetite for the peeled prawns in the bowl.
Leo was still rooted to the ground, as if he still found it hard to believe that Madison. had taken the
initiative to talk to him..
It was Amber who nudged him. “Why aren’t you going over? What are you waiting for?”

She winked at Leo and cursed under her breath.
Leo came back to his senses and glanced sideways at the woman who was already sitting on the sofa.
He pursed his lips and walked over.
The knife and fork Leo used had been cleaned up by Maya, and the pile of prawn shells. had been
cleaned up in the trash can. Only some snacks that Madison had brought
were left.
After Leo followed her, he saw Madison sitting on the small stool he had just sat on, wearing gloves
and eating prawns.
He stopped in his tracks and suddenly remembered that when they were very young, they were almost
like this.
She did not seem to have changed much….
“Why are you standing there? Why aren’t you sitting?”
Madison did not see him after taking two bites. When she turned around, she saw Leo standing behind
the sofa.
Leo retracted his gaze and sat down on the sofa beside Madison.
There was a difference in height between the sofa and the small stool. Coupled with the fact that Leo
was already tall, he could easily see her fair neck when he lowered his head.
He suddenly remembered the way her gown was taken off last night, which revealed her scarred back.
Immediately, Leo’s throat tightened.
“Madison, you…”
His low and h oa rse voice sounded, but he suddenly lost his voice.
Was he going to ask her how she got her injuries? She had already told him the answer last night. How
else could she get them?
Or he could ask her why she didn’t say anything back then. But what else could she say? She naturally
didn’t dare say it as she lived under someone else’s roof..
Leo didn’t know what to say.
It was as if all words seemed especially powerless when Leo saw the wounds on Madison’s back.
Chapter 110
“What about me?”
Madison bit on the pawns and turned around. Her dark eyes looked innocent.
“It’s nothing. You can eat.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLeo’s thoughts were complicated. He looked away and did not dare to look at her.
Madison was inexplicable.
She was not very curious about Leo now, so she could not be bothered to talk to him. She simply
turned back and continued cating.
However, when she shifted her gaze, she saw that the gauze on Leo’s right hand was stained with
blood.
It was much more obvious than when he was sitting at the dining table. There was a high chance that it
was opened because he was peeling prawns. And he didn’t seem to feel any pain. His right hand was
casually placed by his side, and he couldn’t be bothered to care.
Madison could not help but remind him, “Leo, your hand…”
Leo lowered his eyes when he heard this. Only then did he realize that his palm was bleeding again.
His expression changed. He looked up and said to Madison, “Don’t worry. I wore gloves when I peeled
the prawns. I didn’t get the blood on your food.”
Madison was stunned for a moment. She did not expect his first reaction to be to tell
her this.
Helpless, she could only explain, “I didn’t mean what you said. What I meant was that your wound has
opened again. Go and bandage it first.”
Leo was silent for two seconds. Then, he nodded and got up to look for the first aid kit.
The main Palmer residence was a little far from the city center. The house was prepared with gauze
and medicine. However, Leo did not live here and was not very familiar with the placement of things. It
took him a while to find it.
When he returned to the sofa, Madison had already finished the prawns.
She did not intend to help Leo. She sat at the side and watched him take out clean gauze and
medicine. Then, he removed the blood-stained gauze and used his left hand to apply the medicine in
front of him.
His action looked very uncoordinated, but he insisted on completing it and treating the

clotted blood bit by bit. Occasionally, when he used the wrong force, the cotton swab would directly
enter his wound.
Madison could not stand it anymore and frowned.
