Just pulled at the wound a bit,” he replied.“Oh damn, I totally forgot you’re injured,” Alejandro muttered, clearly concerned. He moved quickly to check on Regis’s injury, but Regis stopped his hand.“I’m fine, Dad,” Regis said, trying to show there was nothing to worry about.Alejandro let out a deep sigh. “If you're hurt, you shouldn’t be drinking with me.

He’d worried she wouldn’t accept her.
