Chapter 54 Don't Hurt Her (Part One)

"No, I didn't. Let me go!" Jeremy had shackled Sherry with his hands. Sherry was starting to get hurt. She tried to break away from him but he was too strong for her.

She fought so fiercely but he just wouldn't let her go. When he saw her contorted face, he assumed she was being hateful.

Suddenly, she waved her hand that successfully distracted Jeremy. For the slightest moment, he had loosened his grip on her.

Sherry took advantage of this opportunity by breaking away from him. She pulled so hard that she accidentally hit the wall behind her.

"Ouch..." she moaned in pain.

"Jeremy, what the fuck did you do?" A man's voice chimed in. Steve quickly put down the medicine in his hand and quickly rushed to push Jeremy away from Sherry.

Jeremy was just about to pull Sherry back in when Steve pushed him away. Steve then defensively put an arm around Sherry.

The anger on Jeremy's face disappeared as it was replaced with regret.

"Are you okay?" Placing his hands on Sherry's shoulders, he helped Sherry sit up, carefully supporting her with his hands.

The piercing pain spread to every part of her body in an instant, causing her to tremble terribly.

"She's a patient! If you want to fight with her, you should at least wait until she recovers!" Steve bellowed.

Sweat started to break out on Sherry's forehead. Her face was pale. She grabbed the quilt tightly, trying to bear the piercing pain.

"I..." Jeremy wanted to explain himself but instead found himself stammering, at a loss for words.

How could he explain? Why couldn't he control himself? Why couldn't he just talk to her nicely?

Steve didn't know what had happened between them. All he knew was the distress

Drugged one night by her ex-boyfriend, a mysterious man took advantage of her in an ecstatic night filled with sex.

To take her revenge, she married the man, and used him.

"As long as I'm alive, I'm still his legal wife, while all of you are just his mistresses."

She remained adamant even when he was involved in scandals with other women.

Eventually she stormed off after she learned that he had betrayed her again.But life brought her back to him a few years later, to his astonishment.

ow voice.

"I said I didn't want to see you. The minute you set foot in this hospital, I'm transferring," she said firmly.

Steve almost burst into laughter. He'd never seen Jeremy being treated like this.

Rendered speechless, Jeremy pressed his lips together and in a resigned tone, he said, "Okay."

Then Jeremy turned around and walked to the door, looking back at her, his eyes ridden with guilt.

After the door was closed, Sherry exhaled sharply.

"You were so brave just now," Steve teased.

It wasn't until she turned her head to look at Steve did she realize how intimate their position was right now.

She moved her body slightly along with her shoulders as if to signal to Steve that she didn't want to be held anymore.

"Are you really fine? Don't you need to see a doctor? What if the wound reopened again?"

"It's fine. Don't worry. I know my body." Sherry smiled feebly. Her lips hurt a bit as in trying to endure the pain, she bit her lips so hard that they busted open.

"I really don't understand Jeremy. What were you two arguing about anyway?"

Sherry really didn't know how to answer his question.
