Chapter 189
Dexter, Sebastian, and Candice were good at setting the mood as they ran around Kimberly in circles
with sparkle sticks in their hands and chanted, “Oh, Oh, Oh! Mommy’s wish will surely come true.”
After making a wish and opening her eyes, Kimberly saw the three kids looking lively and vibrant.
The fireworks were still blooming beautifully, and the silent night sky looked particularly beautiful
tonight.
Genevieve, who had always been a loner living in this city, felt a lot of warmth tonight.
She was envious of Kimberly for getting pampered by her five brothers.
Her troublemaking brother, on the other hand, would only drag her into desperation instead.
She was grateful that Kimberly’s usual kindness to others had sown seeds of goodness, leading to the
fruitful results that could be seen today.
Genevieve was a diligent girl, and although she came here as a guest today, she made herself busy as
she played with the triplets as soon as she arrived.
After noticing the kebabs were almost finished, she walked to the barbecue grill and operated it
skillfully.
At first glance, one could tell that she did not lead a pampered life. Her presence was full of warmth
and ease.
After having a few drinks with the other brothers, Samuel chatted with Gerald again.
With a side glance, he noticed Genevieve, who was beautifully dressed and was grilling kebabs orderly
and calmly.
Samuel sat in his seat with his gaze fixed on Genevieve unconsciously, and his small eye movement
was keenly noticed by Kimberly.
Kimberly smiled meaningfully, took a piece of watermelon, and handed it to Samuel.
She knew that Samuel liked watermelons.
When Samuel took the watermelon, Kimberly smiled and said teasingly, “Samuel, go help Genevieve!”
Kimberly pointed at Genevieve. Then, she got up to leave immediately after and searched for Olivia.

Looking in the direction that Kimberly pointed at, Samuel’s gaze lingered on Genevieve again. He
repeated the action multiple times.

Genevieve looked very attractive in a beautiful gown today, appearing way sexier and skin-revealing
than usual, in contrast to her comfortable and casual-looking attire every
day.
The shoulderless design of the gown displayed her exquisite-looking collarbone, which looked utterly
breathtaking. Her sun-kissed neck was also very eye-catching, appearing elegant and noble.
Samuel got up and tidied up his wrinkled trousers, inserting his hands habitually into both sides of his
trousers’ pockets and striding lightly towards Genevieve.
Hearing the sudden, gentle, and magnetic voice behind her, Genevieve was startled and felt her body
tremble.
She accidentally dropped the kebabs in her hand but went to pick them up reflexively.
In an instant, her fingers inadvertently touched the barbecue grill, and a hissing sound was emitted.
Hiss!
Genevieve uncontrollably groaned in pain from the burning sensation and retracted her hand
automatically.
Upon seeing it, Samuel turned anxious as he rushed forward and grabbed Genevieve’s injured hand.
He asked anxiously, “Are you all right? Let me see it. Is it blistering?”
He then lowered his head, carefully examined the hand, and blew cold air on it. Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org
Their commotion caught Kimberly and the others’ attention, and several people rushed
to them.
Seeing Samuel’s reaction, Gerald could tell that he cared about Genevieve very much, forming a smile
on his face after the realization.
Since he knew medical skills and had already shown the skills when he was in Mysonna, he turned to
Samuel and kindly reminded him, “Looking at the burn, it shouldn’t be serious. Take her to find a
running tap water to rinse on it. It will relieve her burning sensation. If you have healing ointment, apply
a little on the wound, or you can replace the ointment with aloe vera gel.”
Samuel listened to the instructions attentively. After Gerald finished speaking, he took Genevieve to
find tap water for the rinse.
Being the most thoughtful person, Esther also followed them behind.

When Genevieve’s wound was getting rinsed, Esther found the healing ointment and hydrogen
peroxide from the spare medical kit in the house.
Esther said with concern, “Ms. Scott, here is some hydrogen peroxide. Use it for disinfection after
cleaning your wound. It will heal quickly without easily getting infected. But this may hurt a bit, so
please endure for a while.”
Genevieve frowned at Esther’s words.
Seeing Genevieve’s reaction, Samuel took the hydrogen peroxide from Esther’s hand and said,
“Esther, let me do it!”
Esther got the message immediately and quietly left the living room.
Samuel looked up and said to Genevieve affectionately, “It may hurt a little, so bear it for a while. If you
can’t stand the pain, just grab on me.”
Genevieve nodded but was not confident at all. Despite having the appearance of a tough woman, she
feared getting injections the most and felt terrified of wound handling with just the thought of it.
Besides injections, she was also particularly afraid of caterpillars.
When she was in primary school in the countryside, there was a big tree beside the school.
Every summer, the tree would have a lot of green-and-yellow-striped caterpillars.
A few bold and naughty boys liked to use the.bugs to play tricks on a few quiet girls in the class, and
Genevieve was one of the victims.
The boys caught the caterpillars and slipped them into her school bag.
When Genevieve opened her schoolbag, she got frightened by the caterpillars and screamed in fear.
Those were Genevieve’s two major weaknesses.
Fortunately, due to the burn not being severe, the hydrogen peroxide that dripped on Genevieve’s skin
disappeared after forming a few bubbles.
If the burn was serious, a lot of bubbles would emerge.
Samuel then gently applied the ointment with a cotton swab to the red and swollen area of Genevieve’s
hand.
He blew air on the wound softly as he applied the ointment, treating Genevieve gently
like a child.

Genevieve was rather embarrassed by Samuel’s actions, causing blushes across her face.
Samuel raised his head and happened to see her shy face, and it immediately put him in a good mood.
After applying the ointment, Samuel searched Google about precautions after getting burned and read
them to Genevieve.
He said, “Remember the precautions, okay? I’ll send the information to your WhatsApp. Remember to
refer to them.”
Seeing Samuel’s serious look, Genevieve was in a trance and thought, ‘What a sweet guy. Whoever
marries him in this lifetime must have done good deeds in their previous life.’
Finally, Samuel asked, “Did you get it?”
Genevieve was brought back to reality by the question and nodded.
After treating the wound, they walked outside and joined the activities with everyone again.
Kimberly gave them a meaningful look. ‘Those two look exactly the same as Vincent and Olivia back
then. It must be that. Family traits run deep, after all. As the younger sister, I have to do something for
Samuel for his happiness!’ she thought.
She had heard that some men in the company were attentive to Genevieve and thought, ‘If we let go of
such an outstanding girl like Genevieve, we won’t find someone like her again.’
