Chapter 167
Niles led Charlie back into the room. Toby was still there while Neo had already fainted from the pain. When he saw Charlie come in, Tobry stood up and greeted him politely.
“I heard he got hurt. I’m here to clean the wound,” Charlie said calmly as he put down his medical bag and took out a bottle of rubbing alcohol,
Niles peeked through the window of the room. He quickly covered his crotch and hurried away, muttering to himself, ‘Better stay away from this. The Moores really raised a disaster of a son.‘
Toby instinctively stepped back. Neo was already out from the pain. Charlie uncapped the bottle of rubbing alcohol and poured it onto the blood–stained part, showing no emotion.
Neo, who had been out cold, screamed out in terrible pain, flipping and writhing wildly on the floor.
Charlie had already poured most of the alcohol on Neo. Seeing his face covered in cuts and blood, Charlie calmly poured the rest over him. Neo’s scream’s were loud and piercing. His face was so badly hurt it was hardly recognizable.
Charlie threw the empty bottle into the trash and told Toby, “I’ve finished cleaning the wound. You can take the rest.”
Toby thought to himself, ‘No wonder he is close to Yannis. They are both cold and super effective. Neo got what he deserved for his bad mouth. Of all the people to pick a fight with, he just had to mess with these girls.
‘If it weren’t for Maisie being a fighter and Zinnia knowing her medicine, they wouldn’t have been able to protect themselves. Facing a bunch of spoiled
rich kids and troublemakers like that, they might not have made it out unhurt.
‘The Moore family has really met their end this time.‘
“Should I stay with you girls for a bit?” Yannis asked, glancing at them as he drove towards the Jenkins residence.
Maisie was munching on her bread. “Nah, it’s okay. Go back to work. Zinnia and I are hanging out tomorrow, so don’t stay and cramp us!”
After all the chaos, the girls were super hungry. They hadn’t even eaten and were really mad about it. Yannis then bought them some bread.
He looked at Zinnia, worried because this might be her first time going through something so crazy and she might be scared. Zinnia said, “Yannis, go
home and get some rest. Don’t forget to make your soothing soup.”
Zinnia took small bites of her bread. After everything that happened, she was definitely hungry. “The milk is warm,” Yannis said.
At the red light, Yannis reached into the armrest compartment and grabbed the milk. He put in a straw and handed it to Zinnia. After everything, something warm and sweet might help her feel better.
“Thanks, Yannis,” Zinnia said as she took the milk and sipped it. The warm drink went down her throat and slowly made her feel less panicked.
Zinnia thought, ‘I was really shaken by today. It was the first time I saw such a violent fight. Watching Maisie fight all those people alone while I couldn’t do anything really got to me.‘
“Yannis, what do you think will happen to them?” Zinnia asked.
“I’ll handle them,” Yannis promised her. “Zinnia, don‘
They won’t bother you two again.”
In the backseat, Maisie listened. She knew Yannis would fight all of them. ‘If they caught some regular girl instead, who knows what could have happened?‘ she thought grimly.
‘These spoiled rich kids are just Neo’s followers with no sense. Never underestimate how bad they can be. I’d never feel sorry for scum like that, Zinnia thought. Knowing they were finally going to get what they deserved, she felt at ease.
Seeing her mood get better, Yannis finally felt a little relieved. “Go rest properly. Call me if anything happens,” he said.

Chapter 167
Yannis gently tousled Zinnia’s hair and said, “Zinnia, call me if anything comes up, okay?”
He slipped a piece of candy into her hand. She saw the wrapper looked just like
the one she gave him that morning
“Okay.” Zinnia said, holding the candy in her hand as she opened the door and got out, Maisie was already outside, and the two girls walked away together.
Yannis watched them walk away before starting the car again. While driving, he looked at his phone and saw what Charlie had done. A small smile appeared on his face. ‘Really good work for a medic,‘ he thought.
That night, as the two got ready to sleep in the same room, Maisie suddenly said, “Zinnia, you look amazing!”
Maisie saw Zinnia step out of the bathroom in a simple white nightdress with spaghetti straps. Standing there so soft and gentle, she looked like a sweet
marshmallow.
Maisie was blow–drying her hair when Zinnia came out. Right away, she jumped up and ran over, playfully touching her soft skin. Maisie pinched her cheeks and stroked her stim back, her eyes shining with fun mischief.
Without thinking, Maisie buried her head against Zinnia’s chest. “Your breasts are so soft! Why aren’t mine?” Zinnia’s face instantly turned bright red.
“Let me put some medicine on your shoulder,” Zinnia offered when she saw the bruise on Maisie’s arm.
Maisie couldn’t help but gently pinch her chubby cheeks, teasing, “Sweetie, you’re just too cute!”
“Zinnia, looks like Yannis has been treating you well,” Maisie said softly as she pinched Zinnia’s soft, springy cheeks that felt just right.
She thought, ‘I really didn’t think Yannis was the type to take care of someone. But Zinnia is a little chubbier than when I first saw her.‘
