Chapter 1010

I forgot that he had just come out of the shower and was only wearing a pair of shorts inside.

This was a little awkward, but it only lasted for a moment before I put my mind at ease. I was just

checking his wounds and nothing else, so this was very normal.

Jordan was not that at ease, though. His body was constantly in a tense state. I looked up and

glanced at him, saying with a smile, "Don't be nervous, I'm just checking your wounds. We may

have to dress your wounds again or there'll be an infection."

After saying that, I searched for the first aid kit and bent down beside him to apply the medicine for

him.

Everything else aside, this man had a really good physique.

Although he usually looked quite thin, I realized after h e took his shirt off that he had muscles in all

the right places. He had an absolutely great physique.

"Your wound is wet and there's some pus," I said a little angrily.

I looked up at him and continued, "If you want to clean yourself, then just wipe your body with a

towel. It's easy for your wounds to get infected if you shower

like that."

He looked fixedly at me and smiled slightly, saying," I'm used to it. Besides, these are just minor

injuries."

Minor injuries?

He sounded too casual with complete disregard for his life.

I glared a little angrily at him. "Even if you don't cherish your life, please don't harm yourself. It

wasn’t easy for you to come into this world. Can't you just appreciate your life?"

Jordan smiled slightly, his face was still cool as ever. "I s this how you treat Theo?"

I noticed that he was very curious about Theo and me.

I frowned slightly and said faintly, "Theo is my husband. If he's hurt, then I’ll be heartbroken. I'm only

worried that you'll get hurt because I owe you a favor."

After a pause, I asked, "When can we go back?”

Jordan smiled and said somewhat nonchalantly, "I still have things to handle here in the north. We

can g o home once I'm done. Besides, your friends' health conditions don't permit them to travel

home now, don't you think?"

He was right. Shannon and the girls had to recuperate for a few days after the surgery before they

could go home as the journey could take a toll on their bodies.

I looked at Jordan and thanked him from the bottom o f my heart. "Thank you, Jordan."

He merely smiled and said nothing.

As the pus on his wound was due to an infection, coupled with the fact that his wounds were a little

deep, I feared that he would be in pain when I was cleaning his wounds. I could not help but move a

little carefully.

With neither of us saying anything, the awkwardness was bound to linger in the air. I glanced at him

and asked, "Is the Fredericks' business on a global scale?"

He nodded. "I guess you can say that.”

I pursed my lips. "I've known you for so long and still don't know what business you’re involved in."

Jordan smiled slightly. "A lot, but mainly in technology."

"Who are you in the Fredericks family?” I asked again.

The man merely raised his eyebrow but did not answer the question.

I suddenly recalled the auction in Salt City and hesitantly asked, "Have you held an auction in Salt

City before?"
