Rupert knelt down and didn’t hurry to rub away the stains on his pant.
Instead, he took out a handkerchief and meant to wipe Joanna’s face.
But Joanna stepped back hurriedly.
Lukas went to protect Joanna behind him, “Don’t touch my sister!”
“I mean no harm. I just want to wipe her face.” Rupert hold out his hands and said warmly.
But Lukas still remained cold, “There is no need of that. I will take care of my own sister.”
Then he dragged Joanna and ran away.
Rupert meant to chase after them, but Erika went to hold back his legs.
“Geez. Your pant is so dirty. Let’s go to the bathroom and clean it.” Erika then dragged his pant and went inside the
bathroom.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtFlustered and annoyed, Rupert shouted, “Let go of me, Joanna! This is the Ladies’ Room!”
It took Rupert a long time to finish cleaning his pant and walk out of the Men’s Room.
His pant was all soaked, but that black stain didn’t really come off and was even now smudged wider.
“Well, we should get you a new one.” Erika lifted up her hand and stroked her chin.
Rupert nodded and agreed.
It was certainly uncomfortable to walk around with his lower half wet.
Rupert then went to a nearly mall to get new pant and while he was browsing around, he gave Sebastian a call.
“I just ran into Erika in the bathroom and she bumped into me.”
“Is she injured?” Sebastian asked.
Rupert really can’t keep his normal calm and gentle voice at this point and clenched his teeth together, “Am I that
clumsy to you?”
What’s more, he was Sebastian biological cousin and Erika was just a stranger! Why on earth would be Sebastian
concerned about her first?
He was really hurt deep inside!
But at the very next second, Sebastian said, “You can have the mansion in the west end.
Rupert immediately beamed, “I know you are the best! I love you!”
“Stop it. I’m disgusted! In all seriousness, how is Erika?” Sebastian got to the point.
Rupert answered, “Well, it seemed that the freckles on her face were all painted on and they can come off easily.”
“So?” Sebastian remained calm.
Rupert smacked on his thigh, “Do you still remember what I said to you before? Why would Joanna suddenly be
different and even would have heart diseases now and then? Well, it could be that she swapped identity with
someone else and I’m doubting that person is Erika now.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSebastian got silent for a long time over the phone and finally slowly said, “But I really didn’t sleep with any other
women!”
The only time that he slept with Bella was because he was drugged.
“Well, it might be a disguise. I will investigate if Erika and Joanna look the same first and then let’s talk about what
to do next.” Rupert suggested.
Sebastian replied okay and hung up the phone.
He then walked into Bella’s ward.
Bella had come round now, but she looked terrible as she was bandaged all over the body and was just like a
mummy.
Seeing that Sebastian was here, she just burst into tears.
“Sebastian, you are here! I thought that you are still mad at me and wouldn’t want to visit me.” Bella sobbed.
Standing afar, Sebastian looked down upon Bella and the vibe in the ward was pretty cold.
He then took out a pile of files and handed them to Bella, “Sign them if you don’t have any question with the
terms.”
Bella skimmed the files curiously and instantly froze.
