You're The Best Medicine For Me novel Chapter 42

When Shirley heard a loud sound from the back, she turned back to take a look.

The tower of wine placed on the rectangular table was tilting forward. The wine on top fell sporadically and when they smashed to the ground, the attention of the crowd was drawn.

There was suddenly a panic in the scene.

“Oh my goodness, the tower of wine has collapsed, run.”

“Let’s go.” Before Shirley could react, Bryan wrapped his arm around her waist and quickly retreated.

She only could follow his footsteps and walk forward. Her hands were pressed against his chest and she could only let him lead the way.

‘Clink, clink, clink’. Not long after, there were loud sounds behind.

Some were screaming.

Some were shrieking.

Some were bawling.

“Sabina!” At this time, Olivia’s scream sounded behind her.

She turned her head and saw that one of Sabina’s legs was trapped under the long square table. The wine glasses of the tower of wine entirely fell on her body. The wine had soaked and stained her white gown.

She covered her face with both hands and shrieked, “My face!”

Only then did Shirley see that the part where Sabina was covering with her hands was bleeding.

The blood slowly overflowed from the fingertips, flowed along her wrists and dripped on the white dress.

Seeing this scene, Shirley’s lips slightly curled into a cold smile.

What was this called?

Retribution!

“Paisley, do you have a grudge against Sabina?” Bryan’s face sounded next to her.

Shirley frowned. When she turned her head, she met his sharp eyes.

His eyes were full of scrutiny and questioning, which made Shirley felt uneasy. Her hands that were against his chest pushed violently and she retreated from his arms, saying, “Perhaps it can be said that way. Mr. Moore, we shouldn’t be able to meet Mr. Stewart since there’s such a mess tonight. If you still want to continue with the reception, you can do so after the mess of the scene is dealt with. I’m tired, I’ll go home to rest first.”

She patted her dress that was stained by the wine. She took a sip of wine, turned around, and walked to the door.

When Bryan saw her attitude like this, a fire was inexplicably formed in his mind all of a sudden.

He had behaved so obviously tonight, could not she still understand his thought. There were so many women who put in much effort to get a glance from him but she was surprisingly not moved at all.

What did it mean to be his woman?

She would have glory, wealth, fame and status.

Was this woman’s brain made of elm?

The more Bryan thought about it, the angrier he became. When he saw Shirley almost walking out of the door of the ball, he quickly followed, pulled her hand, and said, “Paisley, stop.”

“What are you doing!” Shirley impatiently shook off Bryan’s hand. When facing this man, even if she really had a good temper, she also could not bear anymore, “Mr. Moore, you have money so you can be wilful but I cannot as I have to raise two children. If you plan to stay overnight tonight, then please do me a favour, let me go home to accompany my children. I haven’t accompanied them properly for half a month.”

When she thought of the eyes of the two little kids, she was heartbroken and crestfallen.

When Bryan heard her words, the anger that entirely clogged his mind instantly disappeared.

The angry look on his face also gradually eased, “I won’t play until late night, I’ll accompany you to go back to Spennor Residence.”

“Wait!” Shirley abruptly raised her hands and put them against his chest, “You accompany back to where?”
