Knowing that Stella was fine, Veronica breathed a sigh of relief. She moved her foot, but the pain in her ankle made her lose her balance. Veronica almost fell.
Her ankle was swollen so badly that it became as big as an apple.
With a sullen face, Raymond helped Veronica sit down aside. "Didn't I tell you to wait in the hall? Why did you run around?"
Because Veronica's ankle was sprained, when Raymond and Edwin took people to look for Stella, Raymond asked Veronica to wait in the hall and not to go anywhere.
However, soon after that, Veronica moved on her own and even made her injury worse.
Veronica felt sorry, and she didn't dare to look into Raymond's eyes. "I ... I was worried about Stella, so I didn't want to just wait there and..."
"So, weren't you worried that your injury would become worse and you would become a cripple?" Raymond's voice was still gloomy. "Before you do anything, can you think about it first?"
Veronica thought, "Was he saying that I was stupid?'
