Evelyn curled up in the back seat for half an hour before she finally gathered the strength to haul herself back into the driver's seat and drive away.
Every inch of her body throbbed with a dull, excruciating ache. That devil truly had no mercy in him!
The pain was overwhelming.
When she finally pulled up to the Sin residence, she bumped into Mary Donald, who was coming downstairs to fetch a glass of water.
Curiously, Mary looked at Evelyn, who had just stepped through the front door with a deathly pale face and a tight, pained expression.
"Evelyn, what's wrong?" Mary immediately set her glass down and rushed over to support her.
Evelyn quickly waved her hand, trying her best to cover her flush. "I'm fine... I'm just going upstairs to rest." She pulled her collar higher, desperate to hide the dark red marks near her jawline and ears.
Forcing herself to walk normally, she began ascending the stairs step by step.
