She looked gentle, but she fought like a devil. How scary! Despite her brother still hiding in the bushes,
Myra ran for the car, started it up, and took off! Arabella’s gaze fell on the dozen people groaning in agony in the bushes, then shifted to the distant street. Romeo’s car was on its way.
“Be quiet.” At her command, the dozen people clamped their mouths shut, no matter how much they
hurt, they dare not make a sound. Harry was so scared his body was trembling.
He had already sampled Arabella’s violence. She looked so delicate and frail, but when it came to a
brawl, she was stronger than most men…
How scary!
Arabella walked to the side of the road, Romeo’s car pulled up just in time. He got out, walked over to
Arabella and opened the car door for her, “Sorry to keep you waiting for so long.”
Arabella hopped into the passenger seat, “You didn’t have to come and get me.”
“I missed you.” Romeo bent down to fasten her seatbelt. |
Arabella studied his handsome face. This close, she could clearly see Romeo’s straight nose, smooth
skin….
“I’m not a kid.”
After fastening her seatbelt, Romeo looked up and doted on her, “No matter how old you are, you’ll
always be a kid to me.” I’ll always spoil you. Arabella’s cheeks grew warm.
As Romeo was about to close the passenger door and get into the driver’s seat, he noticed two empty
cars nearby with their doors still open.
He looked around but didn’t see anyone else, so he didn’t pay much mind. Once inside the car, he
turned to Arabella, “What were you negotiating just now?”
“Outsourcing.” Arabella glanced at the rearview mirror. Not one of the group had crawled out from the
bushes, probably because she hit them too hard, they couldn’t get up yet.
“In a few days, you can do some outsourcing for me too.”
Arabella thought: What?
“I have a new company that won’t draw attention.”
As Romeo drove, he asked, “Are you hungry? I’ll take you to grab a bite first.”
Arabella checked the time, it was almost noon, so she agreed!
Once in the restaurant’s private room.
Romeo took Arabella’s hand only to find it damp!
He looked down and saw that her right hand was injured, with two bloody scratches!!
“You got injured? When did you get injured?”
Romeo hadn’t looked carefully when he took her hand, he must have touched her wound!
He felt guilty for his carelessness, “Did I hurt you just now?”
Even though he touched her wound, she didn’t cry out in pain, she bore it…
Arabella didn’t even know when she got injured. She glanced at the wound and said lightly, “I’m fine.”
The wound didn’t hurt, she probably got it when she was fighting.
Maybe the men’s clothes had zippers or accessories that accidentally scratched her..
She couldn’t remember the exact reason.
Romeo called for the restaurant manager to bring a first aid kit.
The manager was startled, thinking that the girl Romeo brought had been injured in his restaurant. He
started apologizing as soon as he entered…
He even promised to replace all the items in the room, to ensure that nothing could potentially cause
harm…
Arabella couldn’t help but laugh at his terrified look, “This has nothing to do with you, you may leave
now.”
Upon hearing this, the manager seemed to have been given a reprieve, he bowed and thanked them
profusely before rushing out.
“Where were you injured?” Romeo asked with concern, “How did you get hurt?”
“I forgot”
Arabella really couldn’t remember.
She had been injured countless times and bled a lot in the triangular zone, but she never shed a tear or
complained about the pain…
Compared to that, these two small cuts that were only two centimeters long felt like a light scratch, they
didn’t hurt at all.
“Did someone bully you?” Romeo looked at her, his eyes filled with heartache and concern, “Who was This is from NôvelDrama.Org.
it?”
*No one.” Arabella reassured him, “I don’t even know when I got hurt, it’s okay, it doesn’t hurt.”
Romeo looked down, hiding the rage in his eyes. He couldn’t bear to hurt Arabella, how dare anyone
else harm her!
He would definitely get to the bottom of this.
‘I’m going to apply some medicine, it might sting a bit…” Romeo’s movements were very gentle, “If it
hurts, tell me, don’t bear it.”
Arabella didn’t even cry out when she was stabbed in the past, she didn’t need to pay attention to
these small cuts…
As Romeo gently disinfected and applied the medicine to her wound, he didn’t hear a single sound
from her. He knew she was holding back to spare his feelings, and this made him even more
determined to find the person who hurt her.
Arabella watched as Romeo carefully wrapped the gauze around her hand, a bit speechless.
“That’s not necessary” She wanted to undo the gauze. It was too visible. She still had to work.
Having such a thick bandage on her hand would draw too much attention.
“When you’re injured, you need to bandage it up. Otherwise, it’ll get infected, heal slower, and leave a
scar. What then?”
Arabella was helpless.
“Does it still hurt?”
Arabella didn’t feel any pain, but Romeo’s heart felt like it was being torn apart. He suddenly
remembered the two empty cars by the side of the road earlier…
“It doesn’t hurt, you’re overreacting.” Arabella didn’t care about the small injury, but she felt a warm
feeling in her heart seeing how much Romeo cared for her.

Just then, there was a knock at the door. The restaurant manager who had left earlier came in pushing
a food cart.
“Mr. McMillian, your meal is ready…”
No other staff dared to come in, so the manager had to do it himself…
As soon as he entered, he saw the usually cold Romeo holding a girl and whispering sweet nothings.
He knew Romeo must be in love and cared deeply about this girl.
The manager kept his head down while serving the food, then said, “Enjoy your meal, and was about to
leave when he heard Romeo’s voice-
“Wait a minute.”
The restaurant manager was all in a flutter, thinking, “Mr. McMillian isn’t gonna hold me responsible, is
he?”
“Mr. McMillian, if necessary, I can get a doctor right away to check on this lady…”
“Take the first aid kit away.”
“What?” The manager was dumbstruck. That’s all he wanted?
“What are you waiting for?”
“Right, I’ll take the first aid kit away…” The manager hastily picked up the first aid kit and bolted with
the food cart.
He thought Romeo would lose his temper, but surprisingly, Romeo wasn’t as bad–tempered as the
rumors suggested.
On the other hand,
When Molly and Iris arrived at Sunshine Apartment, they were stunned!
Was it for only $350 to stay in such a luxurious neighborhood? As if they were standing in the clouds,
they followed Dean to the 10th floor, and after entering the password to open the door, they were
shocked by the environment inside!
