Chapter 271: Treatment_1

After a late-night snack, Basil Jaak drove Dawn Sutton home.

Once they were inside, Dawn set her bag down, just settling onto the couch when Basil suddenly called out, "Take off your socks!"

"What…" Dawn widened her eyes, staring at Basil in confusion. Was he getting out of control after drinking, planning something inappropriate? A flurry of fear crept up in her heart, but for some reason, she also felt a tinge of joy.

Basil laughed and said, "What's that look in your eyes! I asked you to take off your socks so I could check on your foot injury."

"Ah…" Realizing Basil's intention, Dawn blushed from embarrassment and uttered in silent shame. She wished she could disappear into the floor, unable to meet Basil's gaze.

Basil, lost for words, sighed and saw Dawn, face blushing, frozen on the spot. He decided to take charge. He stood up, crouched in front of her, lifted her foot onto his knees, and began to examine it.
