Sophia lowered her head, studying him carefully, and finally noticed what looked like a bruise on Damien's face. To confirm it, she even leaned forward, but Damien immediately lowered his head as if trying to keep her from seeing clearly.
"Damien, lift your head."
"When did you learn to force people to do things they don't want to do?"
"Where did the injury on your face come from? I'm not blind—I saw it. There's no point hiding it. No wonder you're wearing a hat. You didn't want me to find out, did you?"
Lucas noticed it too. "If I'm not wrong, that injury is the price you paid for helping Sophia."
Damien stayed silent for a moment before finally saying, "I didn't do anything."
"Whatever the case," Lucas replied, "we came to thank you. If you hadn't saved Sophia, I might never have seen her again. She already told me everything. And if it was your father who tried to hurt her, you could have told us."
