In the end, Chandler brings Kit to his villa, where the Hunter familyâs private doctor examines Kitâs injuries.
Fortunately, these injuries are only superficial, not serious.
âHowever, the bruising on the face will take at least a week to fully fade,â the doctor says.
âCanât it heal faster?â Tina interjects, considering that Kit is a celebrity and still has a film to shoot. If fans see the injuries on his face, it will definitely lead to negative speculation.
âThatâs difficult. When I say a week, itâs already the fastest time,â the doctor explains.
Kit, less concerned than Tina, says, âItâs okay, these injuries can be covered up with makeup. They wonât be noticeable from a distance.â
His casual remark catches Tina off guard, âDo you often get injured?
âWhat?â he looks at her, raising an eyebrow.
âUm, I was just wondering if you⦠are used to covering up wounds with makeup?â she says.
âBeing an idol, itâs a common thing,â he says nonchalantly.
Tina tightly purses her lips, suddenly feeling a bit uncomfortable.
She always thought Kit was glamorous, even if he worked hard and struggled for his dreams.
Itâs true that injuries are not uncommon for idol stars like him, maybe from dancing or acting⦠but she never imagined he would be injured like this.
What about before? Has he experienced situations like this? How many times has he gone through this?
The doctor gave Kit some ointment for external use and left.
Kit stood up and said to Chandler, âThanks for today. I just called my agent and he will be here to pick me up soon.â
Tina opened her mouth to speak but didnât know what to say.
âThank you for today,â Kit said, looking at her and then glancing at Chandler. âBut I hope what happened today can be kept confidential.â
âOf course, it will be kept confidential,â Tina quickly replied.
Shortly after, Kitâs agent arrived. After they left, Tina suddenly hugged Chandler and buried her head in his chest.
âWhatâs wrong?â Chandler asked, looking down at the person in his arms.
âI just feel really sad,â Tina whispered.
âBecause of what happened to Kit today?â
he asked.
âYes.â In fact, what disgusted her more than Mr. Perkinsâ vile actions towards Kit was⦠From Mr. Perkinsâ words, she could tell that all of this was somehow connected to Kitâs father.
How could a father do such things? How could he push his own child into this situation just for resources!
âDo you sympathize with him?â Chandler asked again.
âI do sympathize, but I also want to help him, at least to ensure he wonât encounter these things again in the future,â she said.
âBut donât you think that by doing this, youâre going beyond what a fan should do?â Chandlerâs eyes flickered slightly.
âDidnât you just say that you wanted to be a well-behaved fan?â
She looked up abruptly. âBut-â
He interrupted her. âIf you help him today, and tomorrow he encounters something else, are you going to continue helping him? Until when do you plan to help him? For a lifetime?â
Tina paused, not knowing how to refute his words.
âTinaâ¦â Chandler sighed, gently brushing his fingers against her cheek. âDo you really see him only as an idol you like?â
