Although she hadn't asked him about his past, she could sense that he must be carrying a heavy burden. After all, who would be chased and end up stranded in a foreign land unless they had a lot to hide?
Thinking this, she couldn't help but feel a pang of sympathy for him, and she said with concern:
"Make sure you get plenty of rest. I'll have Gary come by every day to change your bandages. Once your injuries heal, you should leave as soon as possible."
He didn't look up, his gaze still fixed on the book in front of him.
"If you don't come, I won't change them."
The words, though full of threat, were spoken so casually, almost as if he wasn't concerned, but they carried an unspoken command that left no room for refusal.
