Chapter 358 I Ma*saged You
I pursed my l*ps, raising my hand to touch my burning face. It wasn’t painful, but it was uncomfortable. The grievances I had been harboring suddenly seemed somewhat ridiculous.
Looking at her, I took a deep breath and said, “Did you consider me as your daughter? Have you been caring for your daughter day and night in the hospital these past few days? Did you know she fell and was limping when she came back? You didn’t see it, did you? You only knew she wanted to leave without a word, without your permission. You only knew she wanted to defy you, not listen to you, right?”
My mother was taken aback, clearly stunned for a moment. She opened her mouth, looking at my b*dy.
felt a tightness in my ch*st as I picked up my suitcase and left the yard. Walter’s car was parked outside, As I was leaving, he was walking towards me. Seeing my pale face, he slightly furrowed his brows and asked, “What’s wrong?”
“No!” His butt was hurting badly. He took the luggage, and I immediately got into the car, leaning to one side.
My mother didn’t come out, she just stood in the yard watching me. After Walter put down the suitcase, he entered the yard and sat in the car. I didn’t know what he said to my mother.
After coming out, he immediately started the car.
Along the way, no one spoke, they all remained quiet with each other.

The old lady, several aunts from the Hinton family, and William’s family of three had all arrived and were chatting in the VIP waiting
room.
Seeing us arrive, the old lady looked at me and smiled, saying, “You’re here.” Noticing something off about my walk, she hesitated slightly and asked, “Tabatha, are you not feeling well?”
I shook my head, politely greeted a few elders and youngsters.
It was soon time to board the plane.
On the plane, Walter and I sat together in business cla*s, the seats were spacious and comfortable. In the past, I would probably have closed my eyes and fallen asleep as soon as I got on the plane, but I was not in the mood at that time.
Glancing sideways at the clouds outside the window, I felt an indescribable sense of melancholy.
After a while, someone gently tugged at my sleeve. I turned around and it was Walter, holding a bottle of something similar to red flower oil. He looked at me and said, “Let me rub it for you.”
I didn’t react in time, slightly furrowing my brows in confusion, “What?”
He hesitated slightly, didn’t speak, but I caught on. I had fallen on my buttocks, my tailbone hurt, he…
Realizing, I spoke up directly, “No need, it’s already fine.”
He seemed not to hear what I said, pouring some red flower oil into his palm and rubbing it open. Then he extended his hand towards my lower back.
I was startled and pressed my back tightly, yet worried about the oil on

his hands staining my clothes. In my hesitation, I felt a warm and solid sensation from my lower back. Then, I clearly felt the slightly rough palm of the man forcefully pressing on the slightly aching spot.
A strange sense of comfort washed over me, my face felt somewhat hot, and I wanted to avoid it.
His voice came to my ear, “Don’t move, you’ll get it on your clothes.”
Pausing for a moment, he added, “Don’t worry, others won’t notice us here.”
I couldn’t quite describe what I was feeling, because he had to be close to me for the ma*sage. He was so near that with every breath I took, I could faintly smell the familiar scent of his b*dy wash, as well as that unique fragrance that belonged to him.
Even, it seemed as if one could hear the man’s faint breathing.
I knew he meant well, but I just couldn’t be at ease. Unable to avoid it, I braced myself and let him press on. Fortunately, when I had some difficulty breathing, he withdrew his hand. After closing the lid of the red flower oil, he looked at me and asked, “Does it still hurt?”
I shook my head, my face burning unbearably, my voice hoarse as I said, “Much better.”
He controlled his strength well, accompanying it with an oil ma*sage. I intuitively felt a warm sensation in my lower back, it was very
comfortable.
Upon seeing this, he hummed in acknowledgment, then got up to wash his hands.
Watching him leave, I absentmindedly rubbed my burning face, forcing myself not to overthink.

When Walter returned, I had already adjusted my mood. He brought a box of fruit salad, very fresh, and handed it to me, saying, “Have some first, we’ll be in Springbury in two hours.”
I nodded, reached out to take it, and looked at him, saying, “Thank you.” These words were absolutely sincere.
He put the wet tissue into the trash can, glancing at me, “Why did you argue with your aunt?”
He hadn’t asked anything all the way, I thought he wouldn’t ask, but unexpectedly, he is asking now.
Pressing my l*ps together, I said, “It’s nothing.”
He raised his eyebrows slightly, saying, “The red flower oil was given to me by your aunt, and she also reminded me to apply it to you on the plane. She said you’re afraid of pain, and if possible, I’ll take you to the hospital after we get off the plane.”
