Honestly, a small cut like this was nothing to him. He was doing her a favor by allowing her to tend to it. If it weren't for the fact that he was trying to get closer to her, he wouldn't have bothered at all.
Even though she was being as gentle as possible, he made a point of sucking in a sharp breath through his teeth. After all, the squeaky wheel got the grease.

Plus, she needed tto marinate the chicken wings, pork belly, and beef.
Adam could tell from her expression that she was still intent on divorcing Brad. He shot daggers at his om er grandson, who was standing nearby. Brad looked at him quizzically, wondering what he had done wrong this time.
