This misunderstanding… was pretty awkward.Her ears were so red and flushed. She did not know that at this moment, not only were her ears flushed, but her neck was scalding red as well.She did not know this, but the man sitting on the couch in front of her had captured her every move and changes in her movement. For no reason, something was burning in those long and narrow phoenix eyes.“I want to beg for forgiveness on behalf of Susie Thompson.”“Get to the main point.” His deep and low
“Jane Dunn, you don’t deserve anyone’s kindness in this world. Anyone who treats you kindly is making a huge mistake! You’re not worthy of anyone’s kindness!” He spoke without choosing his words. In his eyes that were always indifferent and frosty, there was a ball of rage—a hint of grief and indignation!Sean Stewart’s words pricked Jane Dunn, penetrating the most sensitive spot in the innermost part of her heart!She raised her head abruptly!There were blazing stars in her eyes. It was rag
Amid her anguish, she gained even more clarity instead… He said, “Jane Dunn, you’re finally willing to admit it.”Admit? What did she admit?... Admit about that life?Oh… He misunderstood her again.Sean Stewart wore a cold and frosty look on his face. All of a sudden, he noticed that the woman was laughing like she had gone insane. “Ha ha, ha ha ha…”“What are you laughing at? Stop laughing!”He was mad.“Ha ha ha, ha ha ha ha…”“I said stop laughing!”For some reason, he hated this lau
His slender fingers met the scar.There was a sensation of an uneven surface coming from his fingertip.The moment his fingertip touched the scar, Sean Stewart felt as though his fingertip was scalded.“Honestly, Sean Stewart, how do you even have the heart to torment an incomplete body like that?” The call had not ended yet. Elior White said in a half-serious and half-mocking manner.On this side of the call, it looked as though the man did not hear Elior White talking. His thumb was stroki
He was even more convinced of what he felt after studying the HD image of the scar over and over again.“Are you done looking? Did you see it clearly?” Suddenly, Sean Stewart asked grumpily on the phone. Elior White coughed twice and said quickly, “I’m done looking. I see it clearly now.”“What did you see?”“I’m certain that she was cut up by someone from the black market. That person stitched her up poorly three times and it was even stitched out of line. They didn’t even want to hire a lic
Sitting by the sickbed, Sean Stewart’s gaze fell on the lying woman on the bed. Elior White had just performed a checkup on her.“Nothing major.” Elior White reiterated, “However, you should stop tormenting her. She has suffered enough today, drowning, fever, losing consciousness—worst of all? She woke up and you made her pass out again.”Elior White “tsk, tsk” twice. “Sean Stewart, you’re getting more skilled at tormenting people, aren’t you?”There was obviously a hint of sarcasm in his voi
As soon as he left, silence engulfed the ward immediately. With the absence of Elior White’s voice, the hospital at night carried an odd kind of silence, actually.This was a completely different silence than when he spent his time alone at home late at night.Sean Stewart grabbed a high-back chair and sat by the sickbed.His vision fell on her forehead.The wound which she covered with a band-aid and her bangs earlier was eventually exposed to him.Elior White told him that this wound was
Jane Dunn woke up in the afternoon. Maybe she was too tired and maybe her fever was too high, that was why her body was very weak.The white ceiling was the first thing she saw when she woke up and opened her eyes. At this moment, she was still stuck in a haze not knowing where she was.“You’re awake?”A magnetic voice sounded all of a sudden.Jane Dunn’s heart jolted as she turned her head subconsciously. Beside her bed, the man was sitting elegantly on a high-back chair. There was a file i
