Jason quickly took off his suit jacket and knelt down to cover Tanner’s exposed body.
Tanner was crying and screaming, a scene of utter chaos.
“Sophia Wells, get out!” Jason roared, completely oblivious to my pale face.
Ryan recovered from his shock and hurried to support me.“Are you alright, Manager Wells?”
I gritted my teeth, my eyes red–rimmed.“Jason, you really disgust me.”
I pushed Ryan‘ hand away, unable to stand steadily, but still insisting on leaving on my own.
Jason’s heart tightened; his wolf sensed my previous look was like the closing of a door–a door that would never be reopened.
He was a little panicked.
Ryan said, “Mrs. Win… Manager Wells, it seems she’s injured her waist, pretty badly.” Jason’s eyes flickered.
Remembering that he had pulled me without consideration, vaguely recalling my pained expression, he immediately chased after me, regardless of Tanner’s crying.
“Summer, I want to cancel the trip early. I really… I don’t want to see his face again.”
I leaned against the elevator corner, speaking weakly on the phone, my voice filled with barely suppressed sobs.
I couldn’t return to the project department in such a pathetic state, so I could only endure the pain and leave the company, driving to my new house.
Summer could hear the breakdown in my voice and immediately grabbed her bag and car keys and rushed out.“Where are you?”
I gave her the address.
Summer:“Okay, I’m coming right away.”
She’s not only my bond severance lawyer but also my childhood best friend; she understands me well. I appear gentle and delicate, but I’m fiercely proud and strong at heart. From the moment L discovered Jason’s infidelity to now, even though I’ve been suffering, I’ve still remained calm and prepared for bond severance, never crying in front of her.
Unless he had hurt me to the extreme, I wouldn’t be like this.
That bastard Jason Winter!
“Yeah, I’ll wait for you.”
I hung up the phone and closed my eyes, motionless.
My long hair covered my face, blocking out all the surrounding light, my thoughts seemed to be
Charter?
dragged into an endless black vortex, constantly falling… My wolf empathized with my pain, but was powerless to help.
I don’t know how long it had been.
“Are you almost done?”
A deep, clear male voice suddenly broke the silence in the elevator.
I opened my eyes sharply and turned my hend.
In
my line of sight, I saw a broad, black shoulder and a long, slender, pale neck. The contrast of black and white created a cool and sophisticated texture. Looking up, a pair of deep, icy peach blossom eyes were fixed on me.
“It’s you…”
I recognized him, muttering a word, then continuing to stare at him.
Xander Shaw was very troubled by this woman who looked like she was missing three souls and seven spirits.
He had been following me like a little tail from the parking garage into the elevator, and then occupied the most important corner of the elevator without moving.
He leaned over.
His 6’4 height was like a towering mountain.
I subconsciously raised my hand to block him.“What are you going to…”
Before I could finish my sentence, a slender, beautiful hand landed on my arm, palm outward, and then… moved my body to the side, touching the fingerprint lock.
I stared blankly.
Only then did I finally come to my senses from
senses from my dazed state. The elevator hadn’t moved because I hadn’t pressed the button…
I had also blocked the fingerprint lock, so he couldn’t My wolf was quite awkward, “PLEASE STOP THAT….
So awkward.
The elevator started to rise.

When the number reached 5, I quietly touched the fingerprint lock and also saw his floor.
