The Cold Surgeon's Contract Bride novel Chapter 566

"Selena!"

"Careful!"

Leon and Caspian reached out simultaneously to catch me, saving me from crashing to the floor.

Using their support to stand upright, I saw Zoey instantly whirl around, looking the picture of panic and guilt. "Oh my god, I'm so sorry, Selena! I didn't mean to. Are you okay?"

Only then did Ferris lazily turn his head. His expression was completely blank, those dark eyes behind the silver-rimmed glasses utterly devoid of emotion.

Not a single ounce of care or worry.

Leon's blunt accusation was already flying out of his mouth. "Dr. Zeller, did you do that on purpose?"

"Dr. Zeller, I know you're jealous that my Selena is prettier and more accomplished than you, but you don't have to physically attack her, do you?" Caspian's face darkened, his tone dripping with venom.

"I... I didn't." Zoey looked even more flustered, her fingers nervously clutching Ferris's sleeve, her eyes already turning red. "Ferris, I swear I didn't mean to bump into Selena. Why would I want to hurt her? The doorway is just too narrow. I tried to turn sideways, but I still ended up bumping into her."

Here we go again. This was always her go-to move. Whenever she was backed into a corner, she was an expert at playing the victim. She'd get teary-eyed and act horribly wronged. Since she naturally looked frail, and had lost weight recently, staring up at Ferris with tear-filled eyes made her look incredibly pitiful and innocent.
