Chapter 1440
Edwin was bending over to examine Joanne's wound. However, she abruptly pushed him away, and he fell to the floor.
His thin lips were compressed into a line. His hair fell over his forehead and blocked his eyes, so Joanne couldn't see the look in his eyes.
Although Joanne had just slapped him in the face, Edwin didn't mind it. He hurriedly took off his jacket and draped it over her shoulders.
Her shirt had been tugged by him and some buttons were open.
"You're hurt. I just want to check your wound." He was drunk. His voice was hoarse.novelxo
"Who got me hurt?" Joanne burst into tears in pain. Her ankle was in severe pain. It was engorged and numb. She braced herself against the wall and slowly rose from the floor. She ripped his jacket off, threw it at him, and hissed," Don't pretend to be kind to me!"
Then Joanne limped on her way out. She didn't pay attention to whether Edwin took the jacket or not.
But her right foot was really hurting. After taking a few steps forward, she lost her balance. She was falling to the ground.
Instantly, a strong arm wrapped around her waist and took her into his arms.
Edwin looked down at her and asked, "If it wasn't for me, you would have fallen down. Are you sure you don't need my help? Your foot looks badly injured. If you don't go to the hospital in time, you'll be lame in the future. You won't be an actress anymore. You may not even be able to live on your own. Are you planning to ask me to take care of you for the rest of your life?" Joanne couldn't hear any emotion in his tone.
She was scared by his words. Her tears fell even harder. She clenched her lower lip and refused to look at him. She was indeed a stubborn woman.
She couldn't stop crying and her shoulders were trembling. Edwin felt remorse.
He stopped scaring her and carried her up.
As Joanne tried to break free from his arms, Edwin warned," If you move again, I'll kiss you right now."
