Obediently, Nathaniel turned around as she had requested.
Without hesitation, she removed the bandage directly.
She peeled off the many layers of bandages covering his back with speed and strength.
As the final few bandages were removed, Nathaniel couldn’t help but gasp at the pain.
Upon the sight of blood as well as Nathaniel’s groan, Lucinda removed the remaining bandages with a gentler touch.
Once the bloody bandages were removed, she was confronted with a palm-sized burn on his back.
Frowning, she inspected the wound closely.
Despite four days have passed since the incident, the wound remained in a gruesome state.
Trembling slightly, she reached out a hand to touch his back but stopped short of doing so.
“Your wound is still bleeding and looks extremely severe. It seems that the sulfuric acid wasn’t the only cause of your injury.”
She couldn’t bring herself to touch the wound, withdrawing her hand sulkily and with a grave expression.
Nathaniel let out a deep sigh.
As expected, Lucinda spotted something wrong with the wound immediately.
“How could that be?” he replied casually.
“It was caused by mere sulfuric acid. Is it bleeding now? Strange. It didn’t bleed when I treated it earlier.”
Lucinda was highly skeptical.
“Tell me the truth. Do you know what caused this?”

“Yes, it was caused by sulfuric acid,” Nathaniel replied calmly.
He appeared to think for a moment before adding, “I hid in the car trunk earlier tonight. It’s possible that my back accidentally hit something when I fought with Kyson later on. That might be why it’s bleeding now.”
“Really?”
If that was the case, then why had Kyson felt the need to remind her that something was off about his wound?
Was Nathaniel lying or was Kyson lying?
“Is it really just a coincidence? Did you just happen to hit something with your back tonight? Don’t you think the excuse seems a little feeble?”
“No, I don’t think so. Sometimes things in life are just coincidental.”
