Noticing Mason Nightshade approaching, Aurelia Shaw's pupils shrank, and she picked up the glass shards on the ground, slashing towards him.
"Ah!" Aunt Rong screamed in fright, instinctively wanting to stop Aurelia. "Young Madam, you..."
Aurelia only felt someone approaching her, intending to feed her those bitter white pills, so she slashed at them with the glass shards in her hand.
Aunt Rong's face turned white with fear.
"Aurelia!" Mason Nightshade reached over and grabbed her wrist, but still got cut by the glass shard accidentally.
He stretched out his long arm, pulling her into his embrace. She struggled in his arms, still holding half a glass shard, leaving fine, long scratches across his chest.
Mason Nightshade patiently patted her back, soothing her gently, "No one will hurt you. With me here, no one can harm you. Don't be afraid, I'm here. You're safe, no one can harm you."
