Chapter 222 - Penthouse (2/2)

Stella shifted her eyes from the top of his head to her own foot which was now covered in a white bandage. She furrowed her delicate brows. 'When did he do all of this?'

”I have applied an ointment before covering it with some plain cotton so that it won't get on the bandage. All you need to do is keep changing the dressing daily and keep your wound dry until it is fully healed. Since it's a bit deep, it may take some time.” He spoke up, bringing her out of her own thoughts.

”Umm… ahh… thanks.” She meekly added while scratching the back of her head. She didn't know what else to do besides thanking him. It was then that it struck her like a lighting bolt. She had ruined his pants. 'You better fix that up.' He subconscious reminded her. She could imagine it standing right before her with a ruler in her hand, glaring some knives at her.

”And, I apologise for ruining your dress. Please let me fix that. I may have something you could change into.” She offered him politely only to be turned down by him, again.

”I don't mind it. You can just give me the document you needed me to deliver and the address to which I need to deliver it.” He stood up from the floor after carefully placing her foot on the bed.

”Do you have some cleaning staff?” His sudden question startled her.

”Ah… not now. They come in the morning when I leave for the office, so that would be tomorrow.” She replied to him after coming back to her senses. She saw him frown for God knows what reason as his eyes lingered over the scattered shards of glass.

”Hey, careful.” She yelled at him when she saw him walk up to the carpeted area on which the shards rested.

”I am right here, why are you yelling? I can clearly hear you?” She saw him giving her an annoyed look.

”Don't worry, I won't do the sweeping for you. I am just going to roll the carpet as all of the shards are on it. But I will still check the floor for you, your highness.” He added the last part with a smirk, stressing on the words 'your highness'.

Stella just shrugged in response and continued to sit on the bed as she watched him work. He rolled the carpet carefully and settled it next to the wall so that she wouldn't end up tripping over it.

When he was done cleaning out the mess she had made, she finally told him about the document. ”There's an envelope on the dressing table. Don't you dare open it. Just deliver it to the address which is mentioned on top of it.”

”Okay.” He replied to her with a blank expression.

Just as he was leaving the room after picking up the brown envelope, Stella stopped him. ”I will see you out.” She spoke up as she tried to move her foot and get down from the bed. She was just trying to act a bit nice towards him since he had helped her out so much. But who knew that the man would end up scolding her in return for her kind gesture.
