Zofia and I had a check in the clinic. Since I was well protected by Calvin Knight, I wasn’t injured. However, Zofia’s elbow was bruised when she fell on the floor.
When a doctor applied medicinal liquid on her, she screamed and almost everyone on the street could hear her.
I sat beside her and tried to analyzed who wanted to hurt me.
In fact, it wasn’t difficult to analyze it.
I analyzed, “I have only one enemy in this city and it’s Fairy Dixon. But she married to Calvin today, so she was happy. When she was happy, she wouldn’t hurt me. Furthermore, she didn’t know that I was here, so she wasn’t the one who hurt me.”
Zofia stopped screaming and asked me, “Who else wants to hurt you?”
“There is another person who hates me more than Fairy does, because her husband divorced her in three days due to me. Don’t you think that she hates me most?”
Zofia said, “Are you talking about the ex-wife of Brooke Knight?”
“It must be her.”
While I was about to draw a conclusion based on my analysis, Brooke came, stood in front of me, staring at me.
He was tall. Now he stood and I sat, I felt uncomfortable because I had to look up to him.
“Josephine Wood, you are smart. Indeed, she hurt you.”
What I wanted was security instead of his compliment.
“Why didn’t you give her lots of money? Now she is furious and wants to kill me by a bomb attack.”
“The bomb wasn’t powerful. It wouldn’t kill you and it only would damage your appearance.”
“The appearance is vital for women. If your ex-wife damages my face, I will damage hers.”
“I am sorry that I wasn’t considerate enough, so she got a chance to hurt you,” he sounded sincere.
But I didn’t trust him. I asked him, “Did you cooperate with her and give me a lesson?”
He looked at me and said, “Josephine, you are smart but too suspicious.”
Being suspicious could protect myself.
I married to a rich man whose family was complicated. I didn’t know what would happen to me.
After the accident, the wedding ended suddenly. It didn’t bother me because I didn’t want to stay in the wedding.
When I went out of the clinic, Calvin was standing under a tree and staring at me.
The fireworks were shinning above him on the sky.
It was extremely beautiful.
I had a look at him and then I turned around.
I wouldn’t appreciate him though he saved me.
I was cheated by him once and I wouldn’t be cheated again.
I wasn’t Zofia who would be attracted by a man’s appearance.
I let Zofia live in our villadom. Then I went to the Knights with Brooke.
A long motorcade followed us, which was unprecedented.
The house of the Knights was huge and the youngest generation lived on the top.
I found that we lived next to Calvin.
We became neighbors and would meet often.
I thought Brooke’s place was a bedroom, but I found that it included a living room, a study, a bedroom and a kitchen when I entered there.
It was a three-room suite.
The life of the rich was astonishing.
The house was new and good-looking. And I liked those furnishment and decoration very much. I was on the left of the bed in the bedroom with Brooke behind me.
I gave him a pillow and a quilt.
