The Beauty and the Brain by Natalie Jones novel Chapter 126

Chapter 126 

Christopher rubbed his leg and laughed, saying, “No more nonsense, I’ll be discharged from the 

hospital in a couple of days.” 

Marie sat to one side, smiling as she said, “I still have to thank you for saving Sasha.” 

Christopher glanced at Sasha and joked, “It’s my honor to save a popular celebrity!” 

In the past few days, Sasha was bored in the hospital and often went to visit Christopher. As a result, the two of them became very close. 

Marie saw that Sasha was not seriously injured, advised her to rest well, and reminded her that she needed to return to the production team to continue filming in a few days. Then, Marie went back to 

the studio. 

When Darwin and Sabrina entered, Sasha and Christopher were chatting. Sasha was peeling an apple for Christopher, and they laughed while discussing the plot. 

Sabrina had a bandage on her arm, but she was still smiling. “Sasha, what are you talking about? You seem so happy!” 

Sasha turned to look at Sabrina and laughed, “We were just talking about how you killed Jasper in 

the play!” 

Sabrina stuck out her tongue and said, “It’s for the plot! Definitely not my intention!” 

Darwin, with a dark expression, said, “Even when you’re injured, you can’t stay still for a moment. Why are you running around everywhere?” 

Sasha had a puzzled look on her face, “I didn’t run around randomly. I just went next door for a bit. 

Besides, the doctor said I could be discharged in a couple of days.” 

Darwin choked, glared at her, and said, “I see you’re not in any trouble either! You’re still able to peel apples!” 

Darwin walked over, snatched the apple from Sasha’s hand, and stuffed it into Christopher’s hand, saying, “A grown man eating an apple shouldn’t peel it! It’s not that dirty! You won’t get sick from eating it!! 

Christopher was yelled at, confused, Sasha glared at Darwin. “Darwin, are you sick? What’s your problem with me peeling apples?” 

Christopher comforted Sasha, “It’s alright, Sasha, don’t worry. I usually eat apples without peeling 

them too, so let’s not argue.” 

Sabrina also pulled Darwin aside and whispered softly, “Darwin, don’t be angry. Let Sasha take care 

of Christopher, after all, he saved her.” 

Darwin snorted, “Yeah, someone saved you! You should repay them properly, Sasha!” 

He viciously bit down on the words “Sasha” that Christopher had just called out, furious and 

frustrated. 

Sasha looked at Sabrina shaking Darwin’s hand and shouted angrily, “Of course I’ll repay him! Just 

leave me alone!” 

Darwin, with a cold expression, kicked a chair aside and walked out of the ward. Sabrina followed 

him, chasing after him. The door closed with a loud “bang.” 

Sasha had a cold expression, lowered her head and peeled another apple. She handed it to 

Christopher and said, “Eat this.” 

Christopher took the apple, hesitated a bit, and asked, “You and Darwin… you guys…” 

Sasha shook her head and said, “It’s nothing, I’m just a bit tired. I’ll go back and rest first, and I’ll 

come see you again tomorrow.” 

Darwin arrived downstairs and drove Sabrina back to her condominium with a car full of groceries 

they had just bought at the supermarket. Since Sabrina had dislocated her arm, Darwin helped her 

carry the groceries upstairs. Sabrina wanted to invite him to stay for a meal, but Darwin declined. 

After going downstairs, Darwin drove straight to Maris Entertainment. As soon as he entered, he sat down in Marie’s office and exclaimed, “When is Sasha getting discharged from the hospital? Are we still filming this movie or not?” 

Marie looked at him with a puzzled expression, “Sasha was injured, didn’t you say to let her rest for a couple more days?” 

Darwin choked and said, “Then go home and rest! Why stay in the hospital all the time? Hospital 

beds are in high demand! Can she not occupy medical resources?” 

Marie asked, “Darwin, who upset you?” 

Darwin leaned on the sofa, kicking his legs. “Nobody upset me! I just wanted to act! Can I still work or not?” 

Marie commented, “Pigs might fly! And when did you want to work?” 

Darwin, feeling annoyed, shook his car keys and asked, “That Christopher, the one who plays Jasper, is he about to die? Is his part almost wrapped? Can we hurry up, finish filming, and leave?” 

Marie suddenly realized something. Was it Christopher who had provoked him? 

Did he become unhappy because Christopher was hospitalized with Sasha? He came here to vent his anger. 

“Darwin, Christopher saved Sasha, so it’s only right for Sasha to take care of him a bit,” Marie said. 

“I know, I know! Wasn’t it just protecting her when she fell? Any man would do that. Does everyone really need to praise him? How else should Sasha thank him? Devote her life to him?” Darwin was so angry he wanted to blow up the hospital. 

“Who knows, maybe little girls nowadays just like a hero saving a damsel in distress?” Marie shrugged. 

“Damn it! Was Sasha a damsel in distress? Sasha was totally a hero! She was so manly! She didn’t need anyone to save her!” Darwin cursed angrily.
