Chapter 14 Car Accident
Chapter 14 Car Accident
After Ellis left, there were only two people left, Wendy and Georgina. Georgina pointed to the sofa opposite and said, "Sit down. I'm not a person who is used to others standing and talking to me..."
Georgina and Cheryl were both difficult to deal with, but there was one difference. Cheryl both looked sharp and gloomy on the surface, while Georgina always smiled at people with a smile, but this woman gave you a strong pressure in her smile. Maybe the latter one was more terrible.
Wendy sat down opposite Georgina. Her injured hand was still hanging stiffly, but she didn't say anything, she lowered her head, her eyelashes were trembling, and the emotions in her eyes could not be seen clearly. Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
In the end, Georgina was the first one to speak, "Well, tell me... What's wrong with your hand? "
Georgina frowned deeply, Wendy was not stupid enough to think that Georgina asked this question because she cared about her too much!
"We met a drunken man on the way back home and he suddenly rushed out, so..." Wendy murmured, she raised her head and saw Georgina raising her eyebrows.
"What a coincidence! You just went out with Ellis and got hurt?"
Hearing this, Wendy was stunned. The irony in Georgina's words was obvious, Wendy opened her mouth but said nothing in the end, she just frowned slightly, but didn't know what to say.
Georgina snorted and then left Wendy. She walked to the stairs and said to Wendy, "If Leo will come back tonight, prepare the dinner and don't let him starve. You should know that you are a member of the Jiang Family now, you should know what your duty is."
"I see!" Wendy answered softly behind Georgina.
Is this a punishment from Georgina?
She just asked Wendy to cook for Leo at this late hour, she looked at her hand wrapped in white cloth and smiled bitterly.
Wendy didn't know what Leo liked to eat, and it was not convenient for her to do things now. She had to make a bowl of porridge with some ingredients in the kitchen, after all, it was good for his stomach to have porridge at night.
After the porridge was ready, Wendy didn't dare to go back to the room. Otherwise, Georgina would definitely talk about it again, so she could only watch TV on the sofa in the hall.
She had been very tired after a whole day. In addition, she had a car accident at night. Now she felt even more tired, her whole body ached and her eyes were about to close, but she still forced herself to open her eyes.
But in the end, Wendy felt sleepy and closed her eyes in the end.
All of a sudden, the door was opened. Wendy, who was a light sleeper, got up as soon as she heard the sound. Thinking that it was Leo who had come back, she rushed out. However, after lying on the sofa for a long time, Wendy felt sore and numb under her feet, and fell forward with an unpredictable inertia.
But...
Wendy didn't feel the expected pain, but pressed on a warm but strong body, which exuded a familiar and strange smell of ancient dragon perfume!
"I underestimated you. Your way of seducing man is so direct and rude..." The man's cold and sneering voice came to her ears.
Wendy's heart missed a beat, she was about to get up from Leo.
But when she touched her injured hand, she screamed, "Ah..." Wendy couldn't help but groan and fell on the man again.
But this time...
Wendy didn't have time to shout or even react, because her lips had accurately fallen on the lips of Leo, the two could feel the other's heavy and wet warm breath.
Because they were so close to each other, Wendy could even see Leo's dark green eyes. There was no light in the living room, only the faint moonlight fell from the window, and she could see the clear face and the clear tenderness between his lips.
Wendy was in a trance for a moment, and then was pushed away by a strong force. She stumbled and bumped into the handle of the sofa made of sandalwood behind her, she frowned in pain, and her little face was even more miserable under the moonlight.
"You are really a shameless woman with brilliant means..." Leo had already stood straight, his tone was cold under the moonlight, and his dark eyes were as cold as cold gemstones.
Wendy's heart sank, she didn't care about the irony in Leo's tone, but... It turned out that Leo hated her so much, but he had to play along with her in front of Georgina. It was difficult for him.
"I have cooked some porridge for you. Go and have some... It's so late, drink something hot is... It's good for the stomach... "
"I'm not hungry!" Before Wendy could finish her words, she was interrupted coldly by Leo without any expression, her pale face was even paler in the moonlight.
However, Leo didn't notice it at all, he walked past Wendy and she felt that he must hate her more tonight!
Thinking of this, Wendy couldn't help smiling bitterly.
However, Leo, who was walking in front of her, suddenly stopped and didn't turn around. He just said lightly, "Go to sleep in the guest room. Don't expect to appear in my room for some improper reasons!" After saying that, he left without looking back. His slender figure was pulled apart in the moonlight.
Why was he so wary of her? It seemed that she would suddenly appear in his room and do something terrible to him. Wendy was at a loss whether to cry or to laugh.
There were many guest rooms in the Jiang Family, Wendy was so sleepy that she found a room randomly and fell asleep on the bed.
In the middle of the night, Ellis stayed downstairs the Jiang Family for a while before coming back home.
The tiredness of the whole day made his handsome face full of fatigue.
When Ellis just opened the door and didn't turn on the light, he suddenly felt a warm feeling on his waist. A soft body wrapped around his waist. Without turning on the light, he knew who it was.
Ellis put the hand on her waist slowly down and away. "Shelly, stop it. It's late. I'll drive you back..."
Ellis turned around and faced Shelly, he couldn't see her face clearly in the darkness, but he could only feel her anger at the moment. "Why did you do this to me? I called you the whole day, but you didn't answer. Did you do it on purpose..."
Hearing Shelly's aggressive words, Ellis sighed slightly, he didn't know where to start, so he could only perfunctorily press on Shelly's excited shoulder and said, "Something happened today. I'm a little tired. Shelly, I... I'll drive you home first, okay? "
Ellis tried his best to make his voice sound gentle, but there was no smile on his face, only cold helplessness.
Shelly grew up with Ellis since childhood, they grew up together all the time. However, Ellis only treated Shelly as his little sister, but she didn't think so. She tried her best to make Ellis be her man, she even threatened Ellis's parents with the property of his family to force Ellis to marry Shelly.
"What's wrong with me? Why do you have to do this to me? You smile to everyone, but only not to me. You always have a cold face. I'm so... Humble. I love you, but what about you? " As Shelly spoke, she also felt very aggrieved. Tears fell down from her delicate little face, one by one on the thick cashmere carpet.
Ellis was reluctant to part with her. Although Shelly forced him to do something he didn't want to do, the two of them grew up together, and she was indeed a very cute little girl, but... He had fallen in love with someone for so many years.
So... He had no choice but to avoid Shelly.
Ellis wanted to say sorry to Shelly, but he couldn't help smiling bitterly. He seemed to have said it for many times, it seemed that this was what she hated most, so he couldn't say it again!
However, at this time, the hands that were holding Shelly's shoulders slowly dropped, and their expressions were dim.
In the darkness, Ellis sighed deeply, "If you really don't want to leave. There are three guest rooms, you can choose whichever you like. I'm really tired... "
After saying that, Ellis turned around and walked towards his bedroom. Behind him, there was a dim expression on Shelly's face, but a feeling of grievance spread in the corner of her eyes. "You don't like me so much? For so many years, are you going to not even give me a chance? " Shelly shouted behind Ellis. She was so agitated that Ellis finally stopped, but soon he walked into the bedroom with his back stiff.
It was a not bad night. Except for the tiredness all over her body, Wendy's relaxed nerves became tense, she stretched himself and forgot that her hand was still bandaged. At this time, she accidentally touched her wound and groaned.
But when she suddenly saw the clock on the wall was already eight o'clock, she was shocked!
My God? She went to bed too late yesterday, and she even forgot to set the alarm clock. Since she came to the Jiang Family, she had made breakfast at home, but today she actually slept until eight o'clock. Moreover, Leo also came back last night. By then, Georgina would definitely sneer at her later.
Wendy quickly washed her face and rinsed her mouth before running downstairs. As expected, Leo and Georgina had already sat at the table, Georgina was eating bread in a gentle and elegant manner while Leo was reading newspapers and eating porridge. It seemed that he didn't notice that someone rushed downstairs.
But Georgina saw Wendy first. "It seems you've slept well. You don't even know your identity? Why do you come down so late? Do you want us to make breakfast for you?"
