Chapter 222: Chapter 222: Can You See?

When Summer Shawcross saw the bronze chain tightly clasped around Noah Drexler’s right wrist, she held her breath.

Underneath the bronze chain, his already injured wrist was an unrecognizable mess of blood and flesh.

She bit her lip and continued looking at the back of his hand and palm, only to see those too were badly burned and mottled...

At this moment, she finally seemed to understand why his palms had always felt so rough...

Thinking of this, Summer’s nose was already filled with a sour sensation.

Just then, the hand she was holding suddenly twitched its fingers.

She sniffed and quickly turned off the light on her phone screen.

Noah Drexler, who was resting beside the couch, slowly opened his eyes and raised his gaze, noticing Summer sitting obediently next to him.

"Did I wake you?" Summer asked softly, somewhat guiltily. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

Probably influenced by her earlier emotions, her voice was choked with sobs.

Though not very obvious, it still caused Noah to furrow his brows.

"No," he replied with a mild movement of his lips, then turned over to sit up.

As he sat up, the sound of the chains rang out again, tightening the knot in Summer’s heart as she bowed her head and opened the medicine box, rummaging for remedies in the dim light.

However, the light in the bedroom was so dim that she couldn’t discern the medicines inside the box.

Seeing this, Noah furrowed his brows and directly raised a hand to take the medicine box from her.

Summer was stunned and was about to ask him what he was doing when his low voice resonated.

"What are you looking for?"

"Iodine, cotton swabs, and... burn ointment..." She paused for a moment, then instinctively replied.

The man raised his hand, and his long fingers flicked through the medicine box, then... a bottle of iodine, ointment, and swabs were handed to her.

Summer reached out to take them, opened the bottle of iodine, and sniffed the smell before showing a startled expression.

"How did you find it?"

In such darkness, how could he find the medicine inside?

"With my eyes," Noah responded indifferently, unimpressed.

His vision was excellent, and due to certain experiences, he had developed an ability to see better than others in darkness.

"You can see?" Upon hearing this, Summer was once again taken aback.

In such dim light, her eyes could only discern vague shadows, yet he could clearly see the medicine inside the box...

"Yes," Noah replied calmly.

Seeing her still wearing a puzzled expression, he pressed his lips together and explained further.

"I once stayed in a dark warehouse for two months, so... I’m used to it."

Did he stay in a dark warehouse for two months?

Upon hearing this, Summer was surprised. How could anyone endure staying in a place like a warehouse...

Just as she planned to continue asking, Noah pursed his thin lips, suddenly extending his hand in front of her and quietly asking her.

"Weren’t you going to apply the medicine?"

Summer snapped back to reality, took a few cotton swabs, soaked them in iodine, and then evenly spread it across his palm to disinfect.

Noah leaned against the sofa, lowering his gaze to watch her intently as she carefully disinfected his wound.

The light in the bedroom was too dim for Summer, who had to rely on touch to finish applying the medicine.
