Chapter 147
Leo took a step forward and stared at her domineeringly.
Madison took out the car key from his pocket. The lock clicked, and at the same time, she felt a chill on
her waist..
Immediately, she was wrapped in Leo’s arms and was pressed against the car door by
Leo.
Their posture was strange, but there was an indescribable sense of intimacy.
“Leo, you…”
Holding the car keys, Madison gulped and looked at him like a frightened kitten.
After a long while, she said, “It’s unlocked.”
Leo lowered his eyes and stared straight at her. After a moment, he looked up and took a step back
expressionlessly. “Open the door.”
There was no extra emotion in his h oa rse voice. There was even a hint of coldness, as if
someone had offended him.
Madison frowned and thought, I didn’t do anything just now, did I?’
He was the one who asked her to take the car keys, so she complained a little. She didn’t do anything
else. But why was he so cold now?
‘How stingy is he, she thought.
The car door opened and Leo bent down to place her on the passenger seat. However, he did not
leave and squatted down beside her legs.
Madison was puzzled. “What else do you want to do?”
Leo did not respond. He grabbed
or foot and said, “Don’t move.”
As he spoke, his other hand had already opened the secret compartment in the car. He glanced at it
and took out a small medical kit with ease.
Madison opened her mouth and wanted to say something. But she silently swallowed the words that
reached her mouth.
She lowered her eyes and looked at the well-defined fingers carefully rolling up her trouser leg,
revealing the wound on her ankle.
The scar was not deep, so she did not need to take off her shoes and socks. He just

needed to deal with it briefly.
It was only then that Madison saw her wound. It was a long and thin scratch. It did not look very
serious, but there was a lot of blood on her shoes, socks, and pants. It looked a little scary.
Leo rolled up her pants and fixed them. He took the medicine from the first aid kit and said, “I’ll treat
your wound first. When we go to the hospital later, you will just get a tetanus shot to save us the
trouble.”
As she moved, she could still see the red marks on his palm. From the looks of it, the marks had not
recovered very well.
At least compared to Antoine, Leo’s recovery was very slow.
Madison did not pay attention to what he said. Her gaze followed the mark on his palm. It was only
when the cold touch and pain spread to the cerebral cortex that she pulled back from her thoughts. She
hissed softly and subconsciously wanted to pull her leg
back.
However, her ankle was grabbed by him, making her unable to move.
“If it hurts, bear with it. It’ll be over soon.”
Leo pressed her ankle and said in a deep voice.
Madison pursed her lips. The warmth coming from her ankle made her feel very. uncomfortable.
She resisted the urge to kick him and suppress the panic in her heart. “Leo, it’s not serious. You don’t
have to do this.”
“You’ll only be satisfied if there’s a scar, right?” Leo said coldly without even looking up.
Madison was silent.
A moment later, she shifted her ankle unnaturally. Lco, can you take your hand away? I appreciate your
concern, but you’re making me uncomfortable.”
“Why?”
Hearing this, the man holding the cotton swab looked up, seemingly puzzled by her words.
Madison frowned and seemed even more puzzled by his question.
She thought for a moment and said seriously, “We’re not very close. And your behavior made me very
uncomfortable. Just like when you address me as Mrs. Palmer in front of
others. We’re already divorced, but you still call me that. Don’t you think it’s very inappropriate? Leo,
keep the distance between us.”
She was probably afraid that Leo still did not understand, so she added, “Social. distance.”
She was serious.
Leo stared at her with his dark eyes. He sneered and removed his hand.
“Social distance? Madison, you and I grew up together. We even slept in the same bed. and wore the
same pants when we were kids. You’re talking about social distancing with
me?”
“But we’re not kids anymore.”
Madison looked back at him and said mercilessly, “We’re not only adults now, but we’re also divorced.
We can be said to have nothing to do with each other anymore.”

Leo sneered coldly, “You grew up with me. Just because ended a wrong marriage, you want to have
nothing to do with me?”
“Leo, can you stop being so childish?”
Madison felt that he was a little unreasonable. She deliberated over his words.
Then she said seriously, “Can you not always talk about the things we did when we were young? Take
today for example, you thought that you were fooling around with me because of our friendship. You
wanted to help me when you saw that I was injured, and you thought that these actions were nothing,
but do you know what others think? In the eyes of others, you’re entangled with me, your ex-wife.
You’re about to marry Sally. What will she think if she sees this?”
Madison felt that sometimes, she really could not understand Leo.
He could send her overseas for Sally. When Edgar set them up, he avoided her. In order to avoid
arousing suspicion, he did not even want to look at her.
However, ever since she returned to the country, he acted as if he did not know his limits.
Before their divorce procedures were completed, she could take it that he was making
fun of her.
But they were divorced now.
He treated her well because they grew up together, but she did not want to be entangled with him,
especially when he was about to marry another woman.

Madison could not understand.
However, not to mention her, even Leo himself could not understand.
Leo only knew that after Madison said this, an inexplicable frustration was stuck in his chest. He could
not tell how he felt now.
He tried to understand what she meant, but the moment he thought about it, his mind. was so messy
that he could not even think.
Why did he not even have the right to care about her when they grew up together?
Why should they have nothing to do with each other after a divorce?
She should always be by his side, shouldn’t she? She had always been by his side since she was
young.
Leo had a terrible headache. He decided not to think about it and started to deal with the wound on her
ankle again. With a cold face, he dipped the medicine into her wound and wiped it.
Madison did not know if he was listening. She carefully probed, “Leo…”
However, she had only said one word when he interrupted her coldly, “Shut up.”
Madison was silent and did not say anything else.
No matter how much she said, he had already carried her out today. Although she did. not do it
willingly, it was still pretentious to say anything more.
Anyway, she had bandaged his wound for him before. He could just return it to her.
This way, he could enjoy it with a clear conscience.
Leo did not know what was going on with her mind. At this moment, his attention was completely
focused on the glaring mark.
He looked very focused. His eyes darkened slightly as he carefully wiped the wound. He was probably
afraid that she would hurt, so he wiped and blew on it at the same time.
*Done.”
After a while, the medicine was applied. Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Leo put the first aid kit back in its original place. When he got up, he reminded her expressionlessly.
“There’s no gauze in the car. Take care of yourself. Try to avoid. rubbing your wound on your pants
before the medicine is dry, understand?”

Madison responded, picked up her pants and retracted her leg. Finally, Madison sat steadily in the front
passenger seat.
She looked down and suddenly thought of something. She turned around and glanced. at the man who
was about to close the car door.
“By the way, Leo, is your hand healed? Do you need more medicine?”
