Chapter 180 What is torture
From the villa, Iverson Byran didn’t go anywhere, but spent the night in the garage.
I don’t know how long it took, but when he saw the light in the master bedroom on the second floor, his tight brows eased slightly.
The next day.
Amanda Jewell slept until noon.
The voice of a servant knocking at the door came from outside, “Miss Jewell.”
Amanda Jewell’s head was groggy, barely opened a crack, saw a vague shadow looking at herself in front of the bed, and reached out to explore her forehead.
“Ah, why do you have a fever?”
Groggy, I don’t know how long I slept, but I felt that someone wiped my body, and the temperature on my hot forehead gradually dropped.
When I woke up, it was night.
“It can be regarded as a fever.” Sister-in-law Zhang looked at the thermometer with a sigh of relief.
Amanda Jewell leaned against the bed, her body was weak, and sister-in-law Zhang fed her some millet porridge.
While eating, the doorbell rang downstairs.
After a while, sister-in-law Zhang came upstairs. “Miss Jewell, a Mr. Qin said he was your friend. He came to see you. I said you were not feeling well. See you another day, but he refused to leave. Look at this …”
Amanda Jewell was slightly dazed and sat up with a heavy body.
“Let him come in. I’ll change my clothes and go down.”
Halley Sean came to apologize.
As soon as Amanda Jewell went downstairs, he immediately stood up from the sofa, pressing his concern with a nervous expression. “Amanda, how are you?”
“I’m fine,” Amanda Jewell tugged at the corner of her mouth. “I just have a little fever. The fever has gone away now. How did you find it here?”
“I went to see you at Jiaan Company, and Joleen Lewis said you were here.”
Amanda Jewell paused. “Joleen Lewis said that?”
“Well,” Halley Sean nodded. “What’s the matter? What’s the problem? ”
“No,” Amanda Jewell recovered. “It’s okay.”
She just felt a little strange. Everything happened so suddenly yesterday that she hadn’t mentioned it to Joleen Lewis. How did Joleen Lewis know that she was here in Iverson Byran today?
Halley Sean said, “I’m really sorry about yesterday. I don’t know how to apologize to you after thinking about it, so I drew up a compensation agreement.”
“No need.”
“Yes,” Halley Sean directly pushed the opened agreement to Amanda Jewell. “It’s your business if you don’t care.”
Amanda Jewell had no choice but to open it and have a look.
In addition to the direct compensation amount, the agreement also increased the income share of this Qin project by two points to her.
Amanda Jewell put down the agreement. “Halley Sean, you really don’t have to do this. It’s none of your business.”NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
“The meaning of marriage is not to become a community, sharing weal and woe? I married her, and what she did wrong should have been shared by us. ”
Halley Sean’s eyes flashed. “My only regret is that I learned this truth too late.”
“How do I feel that it’s not too late for you to know?”
A thin, cold voice came from behind the sofa. I don’t know when, Iverson Byran came back, quietly standing behind them, deep, dark eyes sinking to drip water.
Halley Sean immediately stood up, “Mr. Byran.”
Amanda Jewell’s eyebrows chugged twice, and her first reaction was to explain something. But looking at Iverson Byran’s preconceived expression, she swallowed the words that came to her mouth.
The agreement fell into Iverson Byran’s hands and flipped through it.
“Oh,” the cold scoff echoed in the huge room, “the compensation agreement?”
“I’ve come to apologize for yesterday.”
“Why didn’t the person who should apologize come?” Iverson Byran glanced at him coldly, mockingly. “I forgot, yesterday’s incident was not exposed. Mrs. Sean’s business must still be booming?”
Halley Sean turned pale for a moment.
“All right.” Amanda Jewell frowned and interrupted Iverson Byran.
Facing Halley Sean, her tight lips loosened. “You go back first.”
Halley Sean’s hand hanging by his side shook it, but he let it go feebly. “Well, then I’ll go first. Please have a look at the agreement. Feel free to communicate with you if you have any problems, and say sorry again.”
“Sister Zhang, seeing the guests off.”
Iverson Byran’s cold voice echoed in the room, and Halley Sean paused and stepped away.
As the sound of the engine outside left, the sound in the room disappeared little by little, and even the ups and downs in the air froze, making people breathless.
Amanda Jewell stood up.
“Where to?” Iverson Byran, stop her.
“Go back to your room and rest.”
“If I don’t come back, are you going to take him to have a rest?”
Amanda Jewell jerked her head up. “Are you happy to humiliate me like this?”
“Am I humiliating you? My front foot just left, and you met your ex-husband in our house. Are you humiliating me or are you humiliating me? ”
“This is your home, not ours.”
Iverson Byran’s eyebrows gave a hard jump, and his anger had reached the top of his head, but he still forced it down.
He raised his hand at Amanda Jewell’s agreement, and changed the subject. “There is 2 million compensation in it, plus the income share of the project. I don’t need to tell you how much the market price is. Do you think the one you put up last night is worth so much money?”
“I didn’t sign the agreement, and I don’t intend to sign it, but what do you mean? Worthy? ”
“If it weren’t for other intentions for you, who would baba’s door-to-door delivery of money?”
“attempt? Oh, “Amanda Jewell laughed instead of anger, and even laughed out loud.” Do you really mind Halley Sean? To put it bluntly, you mind that I was married. To put it bluntly, you are no different from those people outside. In your eyes, I am a second-hand product! ”
To put it mildly, you have to trust him, but from beginning to end, how much did he trust yourself?
When is it not a trivial matter that breeds estrangement, which makes the chickens fly and dogs jump, and makes people upset?
“White paper looks for white paper. Both of us were wrong from the beginning.”
Amanda Jewell’s eyes gradually returned to calm, which made people flustered. “Iverson Byran, the two of us are really unsuitable. Don’t torture each other.”
“Do you think being with me is a torture now?”
As soon as the words fell, Iverson Byran’s big hand held her cheek hard, forcing her to raise her head. He roared, “Do you know what torture is?”
She talks and laughs with other men, but gives herself the cold shoulder. It’s torture!
She trusts all her friends around her, but refuses to leave a trust for herself. This is torture!
She always hesitates in this relationship, and she wants to get away with it at the slightest trouble. It’s torture!
Even so, he never wanted to give up. Compared with these tortures, losing her and never seeing her again is the biggest torment for him.
Amanda Jewell’s cheek was pinched and painful, and her delicate brow twisted into a ball, but she said nothing. The painful tears slipped down her cheek and penetrated into his rough palm. The two kinds of scalding were intertwined, and when through flow blew, there was only a sadness left.
Since when have the two of them come this far?
