Eric Candi closed his eyes and ignored her.
Ellen Candi cautiously reached out and grabbed his arm. Eric's body trembled slightly, and he quickly shook off her hand.
His movement was too violent, causing his not yet healed skin to tear open, and the bandages on his shoulder began to seep bright red blood.
He sat up from the bed, turned his head to look at her, with no expression on his face.
Ellen was slightly surprised by his actions. She watched the beads of blood gradually slide down his shoulder skin and moved her lips, but in the end said nothing and just pressed her lips tightly together.
Eric's gaze fell on her face, but it was as if he was looking through her to another woman.
