Chapter 790
"Argh!" cried Waverly as she crashed to the ice-cold marble stone floor. Such a sight tugged at everyone's heart as they imagined how painful it was. 1
"Waverly!" Susan and the rest rushed over to her.
Fredrick was utterly anxious and immediately ran to Waverly, asking nervously, "Are you alright, Waverly? Are you injured anywhere?"
"I..." Waverly attempted to make a move and she frowned in pain. "My leg. I think it's twisted... I can't move it..."
’Her leg is twisted?'
Suddenly, someone shouted, "Blood!"
Everyone lowered their head to look and noticed that Waverly's ankle was indeed bleeding from the harsh fall. 2
Fredrick immediately looked at Anthony. "Hurry, Anthony. Come and carry her to the restroom! I need to attend to her injury!"
He would not allow his daughter to have any scar. He must apply his plastic surgery techniques to sew it up!
Everyone looked at Anthony.
Anthony, as Waverly's fiance, was to bear responsibility and take care of his injured fiancee.
Max's eyes were dim. 'Let’s see how Anthony worms himself out of this!'
It would make the headlines if he carried Waverly, one large enough to make Charmine heartbroken. Also, Max believed that should Anthony and Waverly spend more time together, with a slight intimate relationship, he believed that Anthony would fall in love with Waverly!
’Who'd reject her?'
Anthony frowned and, under intense scrutiny, said, "I'm sorry, but I didn't hold myself back last night, and my waist is still supported by a metal
plate. Luke, hurry and carry my lady to the restroom." 1
He gave his mature and stern order as if it came naturally, and that made the people talk yet again, speculating loudly.
'Anthony admitted that he didn't hold himself back last night?'
'And he got so badly injured that he even had to put on a metal plate?'
■Just how aggressive were they last night, to a point that he couldn't even carry her today? Is he exaggerating it?' 2
Some of them held their suspicion.
At that moment, Luke went toward Waverly and squatted.
Max's expression was utterly dark. He thought he was improving Anthony and Waverly's relationship, but never did he think that an assistant would be in Anthony’s stead.
'How can I allow a mere assistant to carry my Waverly?’
He was all set to head forth when Anthony suddenly grabbed a shawl from the side and placed it on Luke's arm. With that, Luke would not have direct contact with Waverly’s being as the shawl layered her from his touch.
Luke then carried Waverly in his arms as the shawl lined underneath her.
Some among the crowd were envious while those with suspicion dropped the idea that Anthony was insincere.
They thought through it. 'His assistant was merely carrying her, yet Anthony lined her with a shawl. This just shows that he doesn't wish for Luke to touch Waverly!'
