Man, what's wrong with you? novel Chapter 54

"No, I didn't. Let me go!" Jeremy had shackled Sherry with his hands. Sherry was starting to get hurt. She tried to break away from him but he was too strong for her.

She fought so fiercely but he just wouldn't let her go. When he saw her contorted face, he assumed she was being hateful.

Suddenly, she waved her hand that successfully distracted Jeremy. For the slightest moment, he had loosened his grip on her.

Sherry took advantage of this opportunity by breaking away from him. She pulled so hard that she accidentally hit the wall behind her.

"Ouch..." she moaned in pain.

"Jeremy, what the fuck did you do?" A man's voice chimed in. Steve quickly put down the medicine in his hand and quickly rushed to push Jeremy away from Sherry.

Jeremy was just about to pull Sherry back in when Steve pushed him away. Steve then defensively put an arm around Sherry.

The anger on Jeremy's face disappeared as it was replaced with regret.

"Are you okay?" Placing his hands on Sherry's shoulders, he helped Sherry sit up, carefully supporting her with his hands.

The piercing pain spread to every part of her body in an instant, causing her to tremble terribly.

"She's a patient! If you want to fight with her, you should at least wait until she recovers!" Steve bellowed.

Sweat started to break out on Sherry's forehead. Her face was pale. She grabbed the quilt tightly, trying to bear the piercing pain.

"I..." Jeremy wanted to explain himself but instead found himself stammering, at a loss for words.

How could he explain? Why couldn't he control himself? Why couldn't he just talk to her nicely?

Steve didn't know what had happened between them. All he knew was the distress he felt when he saw the pained look on Sherry's face.

Steve would rather that he get hurt than Sherry.

Jeremy never apologized to anyone. He couldn't bring himself to say sorry to Sherry but the pain in his heart to see her like this was undeniable.

"No matter what happens, you should never hurt a woman," Steve hissed. He then turned to Sherry and tried to comfort her.

"She was just treated yesterday. How can you hurt her? You're so cruel!" Steve added, still angry.

For the first time, Jeremy couldn't find anything to retort with.

It was indeed his fault. He was too impulsive.

Sherry didn't want to lean on Steve but she had no strength left now. Still, she liked that Steve was blaming Jeremy.

Jeremy fixed his eyes on Steve's hands that were still placed on Sherry's shoulders.

This made him very unhappy but he couldn't do anything about it as he couldn't lose his temper again.

"Ahem!" Jeremy stayed silent as he couldn't argue with Steve since he knew he was wrong. After a while, Sherry didn't seem to be in much pain anymore. Jeremy then worriedly asked, "Does it still hurt? Do you need me to call the doctor?"

"No, thanks. You can go now," Sherry said coldly as she took a deep breath.
