Chapter 126
I shook my head and put away my phone. He then called Evan, took my hand, and rubbed my
fingertips. He asked with a smile, "How's your hand?"
It took me a while to realize what he meant. My face turned a little red, and I took my hand back, "What
are we eating?"
"You'll know in a while," He reached out to hold me in his arms, pressing my head against his chest.
I wasn't used to it. When I tried to pull back, he wrapped his arms around my waist and said, "One
more minute."
When Evan came in, he was carrying a bag, in which there were many small containers. He left after
putting the bag on the table.
Hendrix had an incoming call. I knew that he was busy, so I took out the containers from the bag and
saw that there were pastries and porridge from the Gallery Lane.
After taking few more bites, I noticed that Hendrix was quite busy. I didn't want to disturb him anymore,
so I got up and prepared to go back to my office.
It was normal for Andrea to be around here. Therefore, I wasn't surprised when I saw her when I left
Hendrix's office, carrying a lunch box in her hand. It looked like she was bringing food for Hendrix.
Seeing me had just come out from Hendrix's office, she stretched out her arm and blocked my way,
"Why are you here?"
The way she asked was really funny.
I raised my eyebrows while looking at her, and asked, "Do you think you are at the top of the world just
because you wore branded clothes and watches, Miss Burton?"
As expected, she acted differently after reuniting with her wealthy family.
"That's right. I'm nobler than you. Which is why I'm the only one who's worthy of Hendrix," She said
with a look of arrogance.
I wasn't in the mood to mess with her. I replied flatly, "Well yes, you two are a match made in heaven!"
After that, I ignored her and prepared to go back to the office.
When I went out in the morning, I wore three-centimeter high heels, and unfortunately, there were two
pine trees in front of Hendrix's office. I wanted to distance myself from Andrea so badly that I forgot to
take note of where I put my foot.
So, I tripped. In addition to the fact that I was walking in a hurry, before I could even stand firm, I fell
forward.
Out of instinct, I stretched out my hand to grab on anything near that could support me. Since Andrea
was closest to me, I grabbed onto her. But she was wearing seven-centimeter high heels, so we both
fell down together as soon as I pulled on her.
Andrea and I fell to the ground at the same time. Out of my maternal instinct, I quickly shifted my knees
and elbows to my front as I fell.
Andrea, on the other hand, was in the opposite direction of me. When she fell to the ground, she
screamed in pain.
She was so loud that it attracted both Hendrix's and Evan's attention. Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.
Hendrix was still holding a phone in his hand. When he saw us both on the floor, he frowned slightly
and came forward to help Andrea up.
Then he walked up to me, But Evan had already helped me up. Hendrix scanned me from bottom to
the top, and asked in his deep voice, "Are you hurt?"
I shook my head and looked over at Andrea, who was clutching her wrist. Her back of the hand was
bleeding. It was rather garish.
I dodged Hendrix's hand that was trying to support me and signaled in Andrea's direction, "Miss Burton
is injured. Bring her to the hospital."
Then I looked at Evan and asked, "Can you help me get to the seat?"
Evan nodded and supported me to the sofa in the hall.
Andrea felt ill- treated as she had fallen down because of me. She looked at Hendrix with watery eyes
and whined, "Hendrix, it hurts!"
Hendrix glanced at me, then looked at Evan and gave him order, "Take Miss Burton to the hospital."
"I don't want him!" Andrea grumbled, her eyes turned red, "Hendrix, I want you to send me there.
Otherwise, I won't go."
"I still have work to do," After saying that, he went back into the office regardless of Andrea's
expression.
