Finally, Flynn and his mother left.
Although those obtrusive people who bothered Reese had already left, she didn't want to stay in this
place anymore.
She looked at Wendy and asked, "Wendy, can I stay with you for a few days?"
"Of course! You can stay with me as long as you want, even forever."
"Silly girl," Reese joked.
How could she live with Wendy forever? After all...She took a deep look at Ryan.
Wendy had a boyfriend now.
It would be inconvenient if she lived in Wendy's house for a long time.
After a while, Reese looked around the duplex apartment.
She had lived in this house for eleven years.
But this house had also given her a lot of nightmares.
She didn't want to stay here for another second at all.
"Give me a moment.I'll just pack my things, then we will leave."
"Okay."
Wendy and Ryan stayed in the living room downstairs while Reese went upstairs to pack her things.
Wendy was wearing a long-sleeved floral dress.
After running around for such a long time, the wound on her arm began to ache again.
"Does it still hurt?"
Ryan asked when he noticed her uneasiness.
"Yes."
He pressed her shoulders to let her sit on the sofa.Then he sat beside her, held her injured arm, and
carefully rolled up her long sleeve.Dark red blood seeped through the gauze.
Ryan knitted his brows deeply.
He pressed his thin lips tightly together.
Then he said, "Wait!"
"Oh..."
When Wendy saw the serious look on his face, she didn't dare to say anything.
She sat on the sofa quietly and watched Ryan strode upstairs.
After a short while, he came back with a first-aid kit.
"Wendy, are you hurt?"
Reese asked with concern when she came down and saw the situation.
"I'm fine.It's just a minor wound, but Ryan is too nervous.Don't worry, Reese.Go back upstairs and
finish packing up."
Seeing that Reese suddenly went downstairs, Wendy quickly rolled down her sleeve.Reese still looked
worried.
"Are you sure you're all right?"
"Of course.I'm fine."
"Okay then.Give me a few minutes more.I'll be ready soon."
Wendy nodded her head like a chicken pecking the rice.
But when Reese turned around to go back upstairs, she immediately grimaced in pain.
‘’Ouch!’’ She bit her lower lip.
She was so anxious rolling down the sleeve just now that she unconsciously touched her wound.And it
hurt so much.
"Does it hurt?" Ryan asked.
"Of course! Try stabbing yourself with a real sword." As she spoke, Wendy rolled her eyes at him.
He was rendered speechless.
Her attitude towards him was totally different from her attitude towards Reese.
But on second thought, he felt relieved.
Now that she was willing to show her bad side in front of him, it only meant that she was not wary of
him anymore, right? With this thought, Ryan's expression softened.
Seeing the sudden change in his expression, Wendy was speechless.
‘’Why does he look so happy after being scolded by me?’' she thought and sighed.
‘’Men are really complicated.’’ Ryan sat next to Wendy to treat the wound on her arm.
She must have squeezed it just now because more blood seeped through the gauze now.He frowned
and unwrapped the gauze.
"This may hurt.Bear with it, okay?"
"Okay."
He unwrapped the gauze clumsily layer by layer until the wound on her arm was finally exposed.
Because of the bleeding, the last layer of the gauze stuck to the wound.
When he tried to remove it, she gasped in pain.
Beads of sweat broke out on her forehead.
"Ouch! Are you doing this on purpose? It hurts so much." Ryan's nervous hands froze.
It was his first time to do such a thing, so he was very careful.
He didn't expect to still hurt her.His appearance was no better than the injured Wendy.
A layer of sweat also came out of his forehead.
"Don't move."
"I'm trying my best not to."
Ryan took a cotton swab and wiped the blood around her wound bit by bit.
But he still touched her wound accidentally.
"Heck! Ryan, I don't think I've done anything wrong to you.Don't take this opportunity to avenge,"
Wendy cried out.
"Ouch!" she cried again, "Hey, I can see that you are obviously inexperienced.Let me just do it myself."
"Shut up!" Ryan said flatly.
She also wanted to shut up.But it really hurt.
Actually, she was only talking because she wanted to divert her attention.
But the more Wendy cried out in pain, the more nervous Ryan became.
And the more nervous he was, the easier it was for him to touch her wound.
It was a vicious circle.
When he finally wiped off all the blood, she already lost the strength to scream because of pain.
Ryan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
In a cold sweat, he took out the ointment he got from Leo and opened the lid.
He then squeezed it on the cotton swab carefully and smeared it on her wound.
After the green transparent ointment was applied to the wound, Wendy felt the coolness in her arm and
the pain alleviated.
"Eh?"
Surprised, she asked, "What kind of ointment is this? It works so well.My wound doesn't hurt anymore
after you apply it."
"All the members of the Roberts family are studying medicine.They have been running a hospital for
several generations.From grandparents, parents, aunts, uncles, and cousins, everyone studies
medicine.They like to discuss medical technology when they are together."
As he spoke, Ryan noticed that Wendy's attention had been diverted.
So while he was still treating her wound, he continued talking, "Their family members often do some
research about a breakthrough in medicine.This ointment was just developed a while ago.It's
composed of more than one hundred and eighty ingredients that are very effective for wounds and scar
recoveries."
Wendy's eyes lit up at once.
"Then there won't be scars on my arm after the wound heals, right?"
"Yes, that's right."
"Wow! This is great!"
Wendy exclaimed.
Ryan took a new gauze and wrapped her wound again.
Then he suddenly said, "It doesn't matter even if there is a scar left."
"Huh?"
"I won't dislike you just because of that."
Wendy didn't know what else to say.
This time, Reese went downstairs with her things.
"Reese, is that all you have?"
Wendy asked upon seeing her with a suitcase.
"Yes."
Reese smiled bitterly.
"There are not so many things to pack."
Actually, even the suitcase in her hands was not full.
The ground floor and the second floor of this duplex apartment had a floor area of four hundred square
meters in total.
Flynn's mother had asked Reese to clean it every day.
It always took her almost a day to finish cleaning the whole house, do the laundry, buy groceries, and
cook.
Therefore, Flynn's mother never asked him to buy clothes for her on the excuse that she didn't need
new clothes.
He would only buy her one or two clothes occasionally when they had to go to a social event together.
Not only that.
Since she always wore slippers at home, he rarely bought new shoes for her.
She also didn't have any skincare products or cosmetics.
While Reese was packing up just now, it was only then that she realized that after living in this house
for eleven years, she had nothing worth taking away.
She only needed the bank card that Flynn gave her, the property ownership certificate of the house,
and the divorce certificate.
"Let's go," Reese said.
"Okay," Wendy answered.
Ryan took Reese's suitcase without saying anything.
Reese was stunned for a while.
Then she looked at Wendy and accepted his kindness with a smile.
As soon as they went out of the house, she closed the door and locked it.
They were about to leave when a car pulled over at the door.
Before the car could stop steadily, a familiar rough voice rang out, "My poor daughter, why did you
divorce Flynn?"
