My Wife is a Hacker

Chapter 3052

"It's much better," Patricia responded softly.

Ellar frowned. "You haven't changed this bandage at all, have you? You haven't redressed the wound."

Patricia was momentarily taken aback, her voice even softer, "It's really okay."

Indeed, she hadn't changed it, but that was because the wound wasn't serious. It had been properly

treated yesterday, and it would be fully healed in a couple of days.

Ellar, however, wasn't satisfied with her brushing it off and fetched a first- aid kit to help Patricia redress

the wound.

"Really. I'm fine," Patricia instinctively tried to stop Ell ar but found herself being held even tighter.

Holding her arm tight, Ellar said seriously, "Stay still."

Feeling a bit uneasy, Patricia reluctantly replied, "I can manage on my own. " If the dressing really

needed changing, she preferred doing it herself.

"I already said, don't move." Ellar had unwrapped the bandage. Seeing the still slightly red wound, Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

even after treatment, he frowned. 'If not taken care of well, it could get infected.'

After removing the bandage, Ellar took out a cleaning swab and started to clean the wound.

Watching his careful actions, Patricia unconsciously bit her lip, her feelings all mixed up.

"You're injured and still pushing yourself so hard. Can't you take a break?" Ell ar muttered while treating

the wound, his tone betraying his concern for Patricia.

"It's really just a minor injury. In the past..." Patricia started to explain instinctively but stopped herself

mid-sentence.

El I ar paused in his actions, hesitated for a moment, and then continued to tend to her wound.

"Let's not dwell on the past. You won't have to live like that ever again," Ellar said with determination in

his eyes. 'Now that she's with Nicole, she'll only be involved in corporate affairs, far removed from the

constant dangers of her previous life.'

Patricia didn't respond, thinking, 'Who could be certain about the future?' "Tell him to find a more

peaceful job," Ellar said, avoiding Patricia's gaze as he spoke.

It took Patricia a moment to realize he was referring to Charlie.

With a slight twitch of her lips, Patricia gave Ellar a somewhat resigned look. 'Charlie's decisions aren't

up to me.'

Seeing her silence, Ellar frowned unhappily, "Do you really want to live a life always on edge?" "You

don't understand," Patricia bit her lip slightly, offering no further explanation to Ellar.

The kind of life she and Charlie had was all about the present situation. With all the challenges and

secrets they dealt with, hoping for a peaceful life seemed almost impossible.

Maybe, once everything was sorted out, they could have that peaceful life. But by choosing to stick with

Jared and Nicole, they were set on following through with their decisions and doing what they believed

was right.

Patricia took a big breath and told Ellar, 'Thanks, Ellar. I'm really glad we crossed paths." This side of

him, she knew, would stick with her, a memory that wouldn't fade.

"Hmph, don't give me some fake award," Ellar grumbled, a bit sulky. If she couldn’t accept his feelings,

these gestures only made him feel worse.

Watching his childish demeanor, Patricia couldn't help but smile.

"It's good to see you smile," Ellar said, his mood lifting at the sight of her smiling face.

After packing up the first-aid kit, Ellar instructed, "Take good care of yourself."

"I will," Patricia promised.

"I'm leaving." Ellar’s heartbeat quickened inexplicably as he quickly made his exit.

Watching him go, Patricia sighed, her heart filled with mixed emotions.
