Chapter 148 Does It Hurt?
Lincoln was dissatisfied with “the owner’s boyfriend”.
He raised his eyebrow and said, “Change it to ‘family’.”
Drew nodded and said, “That’s right. It’s simple and direct. One word is enough.”
Lincoln closed the door and took the ointment to Zayla.
“The property manager came to ask about the power supply,” Lincoln explained concisely.
Then, he opened the ointment box.
When Zayla saw that, she was about to withdraw her leg, but Lincoln grabbed it and pulled it forcefully.
“Lincoln,” Zayla shouted.
“What?”
“Who is the boss?” Zayla asked angrily.
“You,” Lincoln answered firmly.
“Let go of my leg right now.”
“Forgive me for being unable to comply.”
“I am the boss.”
How dare the employee not obey the boss’ order?
“I am an employee who cares about the boss. However, my boss is disobedient,” Lincoln
said with conviction.
“Who is disobedient?” Zayla asked with anger.
Lincoln looked at her and asked calmly, “Someone’s ankle is swollen, but she doesn’t allow me to apply ointment for her. Do you think she is obedient?”
Zayla refuted, “I can do it myself. I don’t need you.”
At that moment, Zayla’s phone rang.
It was from Stephen.
Zayla picked up her phone and looked at Lincoln. She said solemnly, “Be quiet.”
Lincoln frowned.
He couldn’t be known by others.
Zayla answered the call. “Stephen?”
“Are you working overtime again?”
Stephen’s gentle voice came from the other end of the line, and Lincoln heard it clearly.
The house was quiet. There were only Lincoln and Zayla’s breathing and the pitter-patter of the rain outside the window.
“Yes. I was delayed in Seattle for some days. Many murals need to be repaired. The repair of the Snow Building has not been accomplished. I have to speed up.”
“Don’t wear yourself out, okay? Or I’ll be worried,” Stephen said gently.
“I know. Stephen, you too.
“Don’t wear yourself out, okay? Or I’ll be worried.”
Zayla imitated Stephen’s tone and said gently with a smile.
Zayla’s gentle and sweet voice made Lincoln’s eyes turn cold.
If Stephen was Zayla’s brother, it didn’t matter.
However, he was not.
Lincoln chuckled and grabbed Zayla’s ankle.
Zayla was startled and blurted out, “Hey.”
“What?” Lincoln looked up.
Zayla glared at Lincoln and covered her phone.
She whispered, “What are you doing?”
“I am applying ointment for you.” Lincoln had a reason.
“I’ll do it myself.”
At the same time, Stephen asked in confusion, “Zayla, what’s wrong?”
“I am fine, Stephen. There’s a puppy in my studio. It’s pulling me,” Zayla responded.
When Lincoln heard Zayla’s words, his eyes gradually became malicious.
How could Zayla say he was a puppy?
That was good.
Lincoln laughed and didn’t control his voice.
He said some ambiguous words in a normal voice.
“Does it hurt?
“Do you want me to be gentle?”
