Flash Marriage: She becomes Mrs. CEO after the Failed Dowry Talk

Chapter 558: A Whole Day Wasted

There was a knocking sound from outside the door, it sounded very urgent.

Jasper Sinclair gestured to Nora Northwood to stay still, while he went to open the door and found it was Lily Sloan.

"Are you looking for Nora for something urgent?"

His implication was very clear: If it’s not important, don’t disturb our time together!

"The rain outside is too heavy, the filming crew’s car overturned!" Lily spoke incoherently, tears almost falling out of urgency.

"After returning to the city, The Sinclair Group will sponsor and get a few new cars."

The capitalist was generous, but the situation was far from simple as described.

"A lot of mechanical equipment is inside, as well as today’s shoot, all inside."

"I’ll go with you to take a look."

When Jasper came out, he found that the water on the ground had already submerged half the car, and the water level was still rising, a few men gathered in the hall discussing countermeasures.

Their car was parked under a tree, going to get it was dangerous, especially with the water level...

Jasper calmly suggested, "The place for water flow is blocked, causing severe flooding, ask the innkeeper if there are any tools for grabbing trash."

A group of people started to handle the water on the street to retrieve the equipment, which took nearly twenty minutes to find the corresponding water flow channel, Jasper braved the rain to get in the car, found the cabin flooded, and the equipment soaking in muddy water.

He and the photographer moved some of the more valuable equipment indoors.

Nora learned about the situation from the female stylist and insisted on waiting downstairs.

Upon going out, she found Jasper soaked from head to toe, his fierce short hair was also stuck to his forehead, looking quite distressed, and most alarming, his inner forearm was bleeding continuously.

"How did you get injured?"

Nora grabbed his arm, the blood marks stood out on his skin, causing alarm.

"Accidentally bumped into something, it’s okay."

Jasper tugged at his suit collar, after getting soaked, the clothes stuck to his skin with a sticky feeling that made him uncomfortable, wanting to take them off.

He then gave Nora a reassuring look, indicating he was fine and not to worry.

Nora didn’t think it was a small matter, the long blood trail couldn’t be ignored, so she took the equipment from Jasper, muttering, "Put these down first, I’ll take you to treat the wound, don’t let it get infected."

The inn had iodine and gauze, allowing them to perform simple wound care.

The wound was rinsed under clean water for quite a while before barely getting clean, obviously cut by something sharp.

The small few square meters bathroom was filled with the smell of blood, making one feel uneasy.

"Why is the wound so severe?"

Nora whispered softly, feeling uncomfortable and guilty inside.

If it weren’t for her, Jasper probably wouldn’t have been caught in this turmoil, upon returning to the bedroom, she held her breath, mimicking the way Jasper had earlier, gently applying the iodine.

Beneath the short hair were droplets densely packed, indistinguishable whether they were raindrops or sweat from pain.

During the process, Nora looked up and saw Jasper’s slightly grim expression, curiously asked, "Does it hurt too?"

In her eyes, he seemed omnipotent, saying he could control everything with one hand was not an exaggeration.

Would such a person also feel pain?

"I’m not a senseless monster, of course it hurts." Jasper was amused by her words, distracting his attention, easing the pain considerably.

"Bear with it for now, I’ll try to be gentle while handling it."
