Chapter 196 She Was Injured When I Was Not There
When she saw him stop at the door, she looked over.
Sensing her gaze, Leo turned around and left the room.
In less than ten minutes, he came back.
He seemed to have just made a phone call. He put his phone back in his pocket and then went straight
over.
Megan was surprised. “Why are you back?”
“Everything has been arranged. Let me see your head.”
As he spoke, he walked to her bedside and sat down. With one hand around her shoulder, he pulled
her into
his embrace and gently stroked the back of her head.
“What are you doing?”
“Don’t move!”
Looking at the red color on his fingertips, he frowned even more tightly.
He pressed hard on the blood-colored area, and sure enough, he heard her cry out in pain.
Paul rushed over and grabbed him by the collar. “Mr. Mayor actually hit a woman!”
With a cold face, Leo raised his hand to show him the blood on his fingertips. “Someone attacked her,
but it
wasn’t me.”
Paul narrowed his eyes. “Who is it?”
“Call the nurse over, Mr. Travis. Bring along cotton swabs and disinfectants. She was seriously injured.

“Why me? Why don’t you go?”
Leo said coldly, “You promised that you would protect Megan in the future, but what about now? I was
gone for a night, and she was injured. If I hadn’t seen the blood on the pillow just now, you wouldn’t
have noticed it
at all!”
“…”
Paul didn’t know how to reply for a moment.
The first half of his words were still annoying, but the second half was right. He didn’t find out that she
was
injured.
“Fll get a nurse to treat your wound, Megan.” Paul sighed.
She could only nod.
Paul ran out quickly, and Megan pushed Leo away as fast as she could. “You don’t have to hold me like
this.”
He paused for a moment and didn’t say anything. He took out a tissue and wiped his hands slowly. “Go
ahead.”
“What?”
“What happened between you and Alex’s family?”
Megan frowned and said, ‘Didn’t you say that you only wanted the results and didn’t need to tell you
how the
process went?”
“When did I say that?”
“About two and a half years ago, when I first became a regular worker, I had to check my notes. Do I
need to check them now?”
She deliberately said that.
However, Leo was no longer the same as before. He had thick skin now.
“Who did this to you? Alex’s mother, grandma, or uncle?”
“I knocked it myself.”
“I don’t think so,” he said. “Forget it if you don’t want to tell me. I’ll know when the nurse comes later.”
Paul quickly called the nurse over.
The nurse dipped the cotton swab in the disinfectant and carefully separated her hair, revealing the
inside.
“It’s already scabbed,” the nurse said. “Many hairs have been stuck together.”
Looking down from above, Leo had a better view than the nurse. It was about the size of four coins.
The scabs had covered the wound, so he couldn’t tell what was going on.
“Can the scabs be washed away?”
“Yes, but it will take some effort.”
“Sorry to trouble you. Please be gentle.”
“Okay.”
The nurse was very gentle. She used disinfectant to dissolve the blood scabs little by little. After all the
blood scab was washed clean, she used five bags of cotton swabs.
The nurse checked her scalp and wound and said, “I can’t see the obvious wound.”
Leo asked, “Was she hit by a blunt?”
The nurse shook her head. “It doesn’t look like it. Mr. Mayor, look, there’s obvious liquid under her
scalp. It looks like…”
“Like what?”

Leo instantly understood. “A woman.”
“What?”
“His mother.”
The nurse was confused. “What did you say, Mr. Mayor?”
“Nothing. Go on.”
The nurse asked Megan, “Ms. Vance, do you feel dizzy and disgusted now?”
Megan shook her head. “No.”
“Then there should be no cerebral concussion. The wound will heal slowly. It’s okay, it’s not serious.”
Leo suddenly said, “Let’s have a CT examination. We don’t know if she was really fine. We can only
rest
assured if she does it.”
“Okay, then I’ll go find a doctor.”
“Alright.”
The nurse packed up and left.
Leo carefully helped her restore her hair. His voice was very soft, but his tone was firm. “Why did Alex’s
mother pull your hair?”
“How do you know it’s Alex’s mother?”
“When have you ever seen a man pulling each other’s hair? It can only be a woman. Alex’s grandma
has a hunchback, which is very different from your height. And her strength is not enough to hurt you
like this. In
other words, it should be Alex’s mother.”
Megan was a little sad, but at the same time, she acquiesced.
“You’re going to apologize. With your ability, you shouldn’t have gone so far. What happened?*
She raised her head. “Are you sure you want to know?”
