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! Rosemary’s gaze fell on the dozen people groaning in agony in the bushes, then shifted to the distant street. Roo’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 Rosemary’s violence. She looked so delicate and frail, but when it ca to a brawl, she was stronger than most n...
How scary!
Rosemary walked to the side of the road, Roo’s car pulled up just in ti. He got out, walked over to Rosemary and opened the car door for her, "Sorry to keep you waiting for so long."
Rosemary hopped into the passenger seat, "You didn’t have to co and get ."
"I missed you." Roo bent down to fasten her seatbelt.
Rosemary studied his handso face. This close, she could clearly see Roo’s straight nose, smooth skin....
"I’m not a kid."
After fastening her seatbelt, Roo looked up and doted on her, "No matter how old you are, you’ll always be a kid to ." I’ll always spoil you. Rosemary’s cheeks grew warm.
As Roo 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 Rosemary, "What were you negotiating just now?"
"Outsourcing." Rosemary 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 so outsourcing for too."
Rosemary thought: What?
"I have a new company that won’t draw attention."
As Roo drove, he asked, "Are you hungry? I’ll take you to grab a bite first."
Rosemary checked the ti, it was almost noon, so she agreed!
Once in the restaurant’s private room.
Roo took Rosemary’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?"
Roo 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...
Rosemary 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 n’s clothes had zippers or accessories that accidentally scratched her..
She couldn’t rember the exact reason.
Roo called for the restaurant manager to bring a first aid kit.
The manager was startled, thinking that the girl Roo 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...
Rosemary 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 seed to have been given a reprieve, he bowed and thanked them profusely before rushing out.
"Where were you injured?" Roo asked with concern, "How did you get hurt?"
"I forgot"
Rosemary really couldn’t rember.
She had been injured countless tis 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 centiters long felt like a light scratch, they didn’t hurt at all.
"Did soone bully you?" Roo looked at her, his eyes filled with heartache and concern, "Who was it?"
*No one." Rosemary reassured him, "I don’t even know when I got hurt, it’s okay, it doesn’t hurt."
Roo looked down, hiding the rage in his eyes. He couldn’t bear to hurt Rosemary, how dare anyone else harm her!
He would definitely get to the bottom of this.
’I’m going to apply so dicine, it might sting a bit..." Roo’s movents were very gentle, "If it hurts, tell , don’t bear it."
Rosemary didn’t even cry out when she was stabbed in the past, she didn’t need to pay attention to these small cuts...
As Roo gently disinfected and applied the dicine 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.
Rosemary watched as Roo 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?"
Rosemary was helpless.
"Does it still hurt?"
Rosemary didn’t feel any pain, but Roo’s heart felt like it was being torn apart. He suddenly rembered the two empty cars by the side of the road earlier...
"It doesn’t hurt, you’re overreacting." Rosemary didn’t care about the small injury, but she felt a warm feeling in her heart seeing how much Roo cared for her.
Just then, there was a knock at the door. The restaurant manager who had left earlier ca in pushing a food cart.
"Mr. McMillian, your al is ready..."
No other staff dared to co in, so the manager had to do it himself...
As soon as he entered, he saw the usually cold Roo holding a girl and whispering sweet nothings.
He knew Roo must be in love and cared deeply about this girl.
The manager kept his head down while serving the food, then said, "Enjoy your al, and was about to leave when he heard Roo’s voice-
"Wait a minute."
The restaurant manager was all in a flutter, thinking, "Mr. McMillian isn’t gonna hold 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 Roo would lose his temper, but surprisingly, Roo wasn’t as bad–tempered as the rumors suggested.
On the other hand,
When Molly and Iris arrived at Sunshine Apartnt, 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 environnt inside!
The house was lavishly decorated, A house as clean as if no one ever lived in it could cost only $350?
"Did Ms. Rose get it wrong?" Molly couldn’t believe her eyes, "Dean, are you sure about the price?"
"Yup, that’s the price." Dean chuckled, dropping the luggage, "I’ll leave you alone then."
Molly and Iris exchanged a glance, too shocked to react....
After Roo dropped Rosemary back at her office, he imdiately asked Carl to investigate her injury.
Soon enough, Carl sent him a video.
The video was taken by a roadside security cara.
Three cars parked in front of Rosemary, a man and a woman got out of the car and surrounded her, followed by a dozen strong n. Soon, they left the cara’s range, heading towards a nearby
wasteland. A few minutes later, Rosemary appeared alone in the footage, getting into Roo’s car.
Whatever had happened, with so many people bullying her alone, Roo’s expression darkened, "Find them. I want to question them personally." So ti later.
The group of n were brought to the wasteland. They looked up to see a man, tall and elegant, with eight bodyguards standing behind him....
They had no idea what was going on, and asked the man, "Sir, can we ask who you’re with? We’re with the Cooper family! Why did you bring us here...Do we know each other?"
Rubbing their sore bodies, they all looked puzzled.
"I’m here to avenge my girl." Roo said coldly, his gaze icy, "Do you rember that?"
The n seed to understand sothing. Was he avenging that girl?
When they thought of that terrifying girl, they couldn’t help but shudder...
"You’re all grown n, bullying a little girl?" Roo’s eyes flashed with authority, like a king in the darkness, "So many of you ganging up on one person? Bullying a woman?"
"Sir, we can talk this out, that girl beat us up real bad, we’re the ones who got bullied! Look at our wounds!"
"Yeah, that girl is too strong, we’re no match for her!"
"She must have been boxing since she was little..."
"No, I’ve been boxing since I was little, but I’m not as strong as her. She’s a demon!"
"A demon?" Roo’s voice was low and filled with a hint of anger.
"No, sir, we an...she’s very strong..."
"Take them away." Roo’s voice was cold, "Let them think about what they’ve done."
"Sir, you need to believe us..."
"We were the ones who got beat up..."
"We didn’t touch her..."
A dozen n were beaten up again by Roo’s bodyguards, they were in so much pain they could hardly stand.
They complained in pain, "This is so unfair!"
Roo’s eyes narrowed, he asked sternly, "I’ll ask you again, who touched her?"
One of the n was close to tears, he whimpered, "You’re overestimating us, we couldn’t even get close to her if we tried."
Another man also whined, "We didn’t even touch her hair and she beat us up like this. Look, even lost a tooth."
Roo’s eyes were cold, "Then how did she get the injuries on her hand?"
"She got injured?"
A dozen n were all stunned. They clearly didn’t touch her.
