Chapter 723: Blessing and Curse

James heard the noise downstairs and knew that Kara had returned. He forced himself to get up and go downstairs.

Seeing Kara push open the door, James couldn't help but quicken his steps and pull her into his arms tightly.

He rubbed his chin against the woman's fluffy little head and smelled the medicine on her body. Only then did his uneasy heart calm down.

"James, you hugged me too tightly."

James quickly let go of her and looked down at her face. Half of her face was red and swollen, and her cold eyes were malicious.

The man's fingertips were slightly cold as he gently touched her face. Kara subconsciously rubbed her cheek against his palm.

"James, it hurts."

James lowered his head and kissed her cheek. He comforted her softly, "I'll apply medicine for you."

"Uncle Corey has already applied medicine for me. James, how are your injuries? Let Uncle Corey take a look at you." Kara nervously held his palm and stared at Corey with anticipation.
