Stella and Matthew looked at each other. Then, Stella asked worriedly, Did she say why she didnt want to eat?
Erin shook her head. She didnt say anything. But she doesnt look well. Maybe she is not used to staying here.
Stella was even more worried. She turned to Matthew and said, Ill go upstairs to check on her.
Matthew nodded in agreement.
Stella went upstairs and knocked on the door of Lindsays room.
Lindsay heard the knock. She fixed her hair and stood up to open the door.

But when she saw Stella standing outside the door alone, she felt a sense of loss.
Even so, she didnt show anything unusual on her face. She smiled and asked, Why are you back so early? I thought you would stay long at Bellas.

.
Bella has not been feeling well recently, so we have to leave early,
Stella answered.
After explaining, she was about to ask Lindsay why she skipped dinner.
But before Stella could open her mouth, she saw Lindsay quietly hiding her injured arm behind her back.
When Stella noticed that Lindsay had removed the gauze, she couldnt help asking, Are you going to apply medicine and change the dressing?
Lindsay nodded.
Ever since the doctor bandaged Lindsays wound, Stella didnt know how it was now. She said worriedly, I dont think its convenient for you to do it on your own. Let me help you.
Thank you, but its okay. I can do it, Lindsay refused, taking a step back.
However, Stella insisted, ignoring her refusal. I insist. Its just applying medicine. I can do it. Dont worry.
After saying this, she gently grabbed Lindsays wrist. Although mentally prepared, she still couldnt help gasping when she saw Lindsays wound.
The wound was not deep, but it was very long. It hadnt scabbed yet, and the skin around it was still red. She could imagine the pain.
At the sight of this, Stella felt even guiltier toward Lindsay. She was speechless for a while and didnt know what to do.
Id better do it myself, Lindsay said when she noticed Stellas reaction. She slowly withdrew her hand.
But Stella grabbed it again and pulled her into the room. You got injured because you wanted to save me. I have the responsibility to take care of you.
Then, Stella asked Lindsay to sit on the chair. She turned around, opened the medical kit, and took a cotton swab. She dipped it in the medicine and applied it to Lindsays wound.
While doing it, she said, If you feel pain, tell me. Ill try to be as gentle as possible.
