The Unexpected Marriage novel Chapter 18

The doctor said that he had never seen a girl so fearless of pain.

When he was using the tweezers and the alcohol to rub her wound, she was motionless, as if she was hit on a acupoint. She didn't even groan.

Only when the glass was pulled out, she trembled slightly, which indicated that the patient he treated still had painful nerves.

All the wounds were disinfected and applied medicine. Joan insisted on not staying in the hospital for observation. Therefore, Shelly carefully put her arms in her sleeves to avoid hurting her back.

"Joan, aren't you afraid of pain?"

Of course she was afraid. She still remembered the time when her father took her to take a vaccine. At that time, she was like a princess. Although her stepmother didn't care about her but still tried her best to play a good mother in front of her father, she never embarrassed her.

All had changed when her father died of an illness.

She buttoned herself up calmly and said, "I was afraid before, I'm afraid of nothing after I stayed in prison."

"You had been in prison?" She asked in disbelief, "Why?"

Patting on Shelly's head, she said softly, "I was framed by my husband and was sent to prison by him in person. So, Shelly, there are more bad people in the society than good people. Don't be too naive. You must protect yourself."

She quickly clicked on the Shelly's phone and said, "This is my phone number. You can call me if you need anything."

Joan wasn't used to be taken care of by others. So she pushed away Shelly's arms and tried to stand up against the pain. After she was cut off from all the routes, there was only one place she could go.

She turned around and said to Shelly, "I don't have any money now. I want to borrow 100 in addition to the medical fee."

Without a word, Shelly took out two notes from her backpack and told Joan not to return the money.

"Shelly, your good deeds will be returned."

She stood in front of the office building for a long time. If she needed to ask for help, she would rather go to beg Darren rather than Scott.

What's more, with Jean she and Scott couldn't communicate well.

His assistant, Selina Zhang, asked her to wait a little longer in the reception room. She just said okay carelessly. She kept reminding herself that she came to beg him, and if he wanted her to wait, she had to wait.

After a long while, the door of the reception room opened with a click. She looked up and stared at the man in a complicated look. He wore a simple black suit, but he looked more graceful than the pricy black suit.

He gestured with his hand to make her sit down, and then he sat down on the main seat.

"You have five minutes." He was cold and arrogant. If it had been in the past, she would have run away. But today, she had murmured it in her heart for several times

"I am looking for a job. He is my interviewer."
