Chapter 1416
Lucas seldom saw Edwin so angry, so he apologized again and again, "I'm sorry, Mr. Atherton. I was wrong. Ms. Winters was too ruthless. How could she beat you like this?"
Edwin did not want to mention Joanne and Jack, and a trace of cruelty flashed in his eyes.
He ignored Lucas and the doctor and went back to the top floor.
The window of the living room was open, so he could smell the aroma of hot pot downstairs, along with Joanne's and Jack's intermittent voices, which were not very clear but could be vaguely told that the atmosphere seemed to be very harmonious.
Edwin took a bottle of wine from the wine cabinet and stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window quietly, looking lonely.
Downstairs, Joanne made Jack sit on the sofa and brought the medical kit.
Fortunately, the medical kit Cat had prepared was filled with essential medicines, gauze, tweezers, and other tools.
"Jo, that bastard has been kicked out. Tell me the truth. Did he bully you or not?" Jack stared at Joanne with anger. It looked like he would beat Edwin hard if she said she had been bullied by Edwin.
"No, he didn’t!" Joanne removed the gauze from his forehead while saying, "He lives upstairs. Just now, his clothes had been blown onto my balcony, so he came to pick them up. Nothing else happened."
"Hiss..." Jack let out an involuntary gasp of pain and then beamed with delight, "If he dares to bully my woman, I will kill him!”
Joanne used a little extra force while applying the ointment on his forehead with a cotton swab. Jack almost jumped up from the sofa, "Jo, you are murdering your boyfriend!"
"When did I become your woman? Jack, if you keep talking nonsense, I’m really going to kick you out," Joanne complained.
Jack raised his chin and smiled, "The woman I have a crush on will surely be my girlfriend sooner or later. Besides, I bled for you. If you don't be my woman, how can you repay me for saving your life?"
Joanne was speechless, 'Is he really twenty-seven?’
After a while, she uttered, "Didn't you bleed because your car crashed into Edwin's car?"
Jack was triumphant, "That day was the first time I saw you take off your mask. I was shocked by your incredible beauty, so in the final analysis, you should be responsible for me!"
"My face is artificial. There are many people who look just like me. Why don’t you prefer a natural face?"
Jack replied, "No matter how artificial your face is, you have to have a foundation!"
Joanne was speechless again. She quickly applied ointment to his wound, put gauze on it, and then told him not to let himself be tired.
Jack closed his eyes and sniffed at Joanne, "This is the gauze you put on my forehead, and I will never change it as long as I live. My head hurts a little bit. Can you blow at it?"
Joanne reached out and pushed his head away with disgust, "Hot pot is ready. Would you like to eat with me?"
"Great, I came here to have dinner with you. Patrick said you were very good at cooking." Jack followed Joanne to the dinner table.
Under the light, Joanne's face was perfect with no scar. She had beautiful almond-shaped eyes, curved eyebrows, and a straight nose. Her chin was completely different from the popular pointed ones. Hers was a little round and unique.
Jack couldn’t help thinking, 'Why did I think a pointed chin looked good before? I was so blind!’
They happily ate hot pot together.
Jack had a wound on his head, so Joanne didn't let him eat spicy food for the recovery of his wound.
Jack's taste was very light, so he was happy and even asked Joanne if she knew he would come and specially prepared clear soup for him.
Joanne ignored him and said nothing but ate and drank beer quietly.Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.
