Lilia was seen lying on the bed inside her hotel room. The sound of her regular breathing indicated that the woman was fast asleep. A man sat beside Lilia. The man rubbed his wife's cheek gently, being careful not to wake her up.
Lilia's two assistants stood not far from the bed. Their usual stiff faces were filled with respect. Then Dina stepped forward and stopped a few meters in front of Jean. She handed him the ointment.
"Young master, this is the ointment you asked for." Dina said politely, "It is effective in relieving pain from bruises like that suffered by Madame."
After Jean received the medicine, Dina returned to her original position beside Rini. The two of them waited for Jean's further instructions in silence, like a soldier awaiting their commander's orders.
"...Why does Lilia have a fever?" Jean asked coldly, his voice filled with intense anger.
