Matthew and Jeremy reached out to Stella at the same time.

But Matthew was quicker.

He pulled the frozen woman into his arms and shielded her with his side to the trolley.

A second later, Matthew felt a sharp pain in his arm.

He groaned with his eyes shut.

Matthew furrowed his brow and shot a disapproving glance at the careless waiter.

“Mr.

Matthew instinctively wanted to pull his arm back, but it seemed strangely unresponsive.

His expression changed.

Stella’s heart raced with panic.

Gently, she examined Matthew’s arm.

His furrowed brow told her something was wrong.

Stella realized his arm was dislocated.

“I’m fine.

” Mathew brushed her concern away, pretending he was fine.
