The man's deep eyes narrowed slightly, and he pulled the teenager's collar with force, dragging him towards himself.
Bella Green was so frightened that she quickly crawled over with her hands and feet, fearing that the hospital gown wasn't sturdy enough and would be torn apart by the man.
Startled by the man's cold gaze, Bella was about to speak when her cheek was pinched again, this time with even more force.
Mason Bennett forcefully rubbed the girl's face with his fingers, then looked at his reddened fingers and the little floral face of the teenager, bursting into laughter.
Bella was taken aback, looked at the man's fingers, then shivered and covered her face with her hand.
"Allergic?" The man pinched his fingertips, inquiring in a gloomy and low voice.
Bella's face turned beet red, having a demeanor as if caught in the act of doing something bad.
