The night sky was getting gloomier. When Joyce heard those words, she stopped in her tracks and suddenly felt her blood drain from her body. Keith’s words stabbed into Joyce’s heart like a knife, which made her bleed profusely.
The scars Joyce tried her best to hide were uncovered, and she could no longer act as if nothing had happened.
She desperately wanted to forget those three years, but those people always had to remind her that her existence was worthless!
Kai sneered with an extremely dangerous tone as he said, “Keith Ludwig, are you even human?”
He knew that Joyce had a bad time while she was staying with the Becketts those three years, but he did not know any details because his father did not allow them to inquire about Joyce. Thus, the Powell brothers dared not touch this subject.
Now that a glimpse of Joyce’s past
Now that a glimpse Joyce’s past suffering was brought up, Keith’s words instantly angered Kai. So, this is how the princess that we pampered and coddled all this while was treated?!
Keith was silent for a moment, but taking care of Selena Price was Hendrick’s dying wish, so of course, Selena was more important.
“Are you gonna watch her die? It’s just a little blood, so why are you so stingy?
Besides, it’s not the first time you gave blood to her, right, Joyce?”
Tristan frowned and his face grew colder.”
Keith…”
Hearing Keith’s words, Joyce smiled and turned to look at him. Her eyes flashed with a determined ruthlessness.
She walked up and looked down at Selena, who was lying in Tristan’s arms, with the corners of her lips gently hooked.
“Mr. Ludwig, that’s easy to say. It’s just a little blood, huh?”
Keith was stunned for a moment. His face paled and felt that something was wrong with Joyce, but he could not pinpoint it.
“Her life is at stake, so what’s a little blood?” Keith still argued. ‘Did Joyce want Selena to die?’
‘Right… Compared to Selena, what’s my pint of blood worth? Shouldn’t I feel honored to be able to give my blood to her?
Joyce smiled, but it did not have the slightest warmth and was even cold. She suddenly lifted her leg and did not hesitate to kick Selena’s head wound.
Selena suddenly screamed. “Ahh!”
Everyone was caught off guard and shocked by this scene. Keith was startled and pointed at Joyce with his trembling hand. “You…”
Tristan also did not expect Joyce to suddenly kick Selena with such force like it was not enough.
Julie Nixon quickly stepped in to stand in front of Joyce. However, it was not to stop Joyce but to prevent Tristan and
Keith from retaliating against her.
Selena’s scab at her head cracked again.
Besides that, she even got a new wound, only that there was no blood. It was just a bruise, which looked even worse.
“Tristan…” Selena shrank into Tristan’s arms, looking frightened and miserable.
“Mr. Beckett, Mr. Ludwig, I need to make something clear. I’m not a compassionate person and I don’t care whether Selena Price dies or not… But one thing’s for sure, I will never give my blood to this b*tch again.
I’m already showing a lot of mercy by not bleeding her dry. If you guys still dare to ask for my blood, I’ll make sure that I’ll get back every ounce of blood I’ve ever given her, with interest.”
Joyce’s words were crisp and clear and reverberated loudly in the space.
‘Moral kidnapping? I’d rather have no morals than let them get what they want!’
Tristan looked at Joyce and fell silent.
Even he felt uncomfortable hearing Keith’s words, let alone Joyce.
What obligation did the now divorced
Joyce have to donate blood to Selena again?
Keith stood there with a pale face. The hatred in Joyce’s eyes was clear and undisguised, which made him a little frightened.
Joyce’s gaze swept to Selena’s face. The corners of her lips gently hooked up into a cold arc.
“Unlike someone, I don’t have the talento f being a manipulative b*tch, but I do hope that you get to live, Ms. Price.”
Of course, Joyce could see that Selena was just pretending.
Perhaps Selena even did this intentionally. That little bit of blood on
Selena’s head in the dim light only magnified others’ fear and worry for her.
Joyce had kicked Ingrid and Selena out from the venue a long time ago, but they stayed until now just to put on a show like this?
Was Selena just trying to prove that she was more important in Tristan’s heart?
Once Selena was injured, everyone had to revolve around her. Joyce would then be chucked to the side again.
Unfortunately, Joyce did not follow the script Selena intended. Joyce did not get upset, nor did she pretend to be strong.
Instead, Joyce hit Selena.
“This feels great!’ Joyce laughed lightly, then went out the door.
Kai hooked his lips in satisfaction and did not blame Joyce at all. Instead, he gave her a thumbs up and praised her. “Great!
Well done, Joyce! Now, this is the Joyce I know!”
‘Not that stupid woman who lived like a coward for the past three years…’
A trace of ruthlessness flashed across
Kai’s handsome face as he glanced at the woman in Tristan’s arms.
He looked at Keith again, snorted coldly, and said, “Not everyone is worthy enough to get Joyce’s blood. This wretch should just take a good look in the mirror.”
Selena was in so much pain that her teeth began to chatter. The moment Joyce kicked her, her mind went blank, and she
Five minutes later, the doctor arrived and moved Selena Price to one of the sofas in the venue for a checkup.
Ingrid accompanied Selena. After seeing what happened, she did not dare to say a word.
Selena clutched Tristan’s arm tightly as she sobbed continuously, looking so miserable and pitiful.
“Doctor, how is she?”
The doctor paused for a moment and got his assistant to dress Selena’s forehead wound. He spoke calmly, “It’s only a minor abrasion, nothing serious that can’t be solved with a band-aid. As for any internal injuries, I’d suggest going to the hospital to take a CT scan to check it out, but based on my preliminary judgment, it’s probably just a mild concussion…”
“A band-aid?” Keith did not believe it.”
But she bled a lot earlier. Shouldn’t you check again?”
The doctor skillfully packed up his things, ignored Keith, and walked over to greet
Julie. ‘How is this tiny injury worth
Julie. ‘How is this injury worth breaking a few red lights while rushing back here? I thought it was some kind of life-or-death situation… If I came a little later, the wound would probably heal on its own!
Julie sent the doctor off politely. The atmosphere was silent for a moment. Julie came back inside and laughed lightly as she looked at Selena with disdain.
She said lightly, “You asked for it.”
It was originally nothing serious, but this woman had to make a scene. It did not even play out before Joyce turned the gun on her and hurt her instead.
Selena’s face turned pale. Her tears flowed down as she cried in pain.
Tristan’s eyes sank.
He let go of Selena’s hand, passed it to Ingrid, then looked at
Julie. “Thanks.”
Julie did not care for his gratitude.
There’s no need for that. If you can’t trust my doctor, feel free to get it checked out yourself. I still have a lot of follow-ups to attend to, so I don’t have time to waste over here.”
She left after leaving this sentence. When she passed by Keith Ludwig, she stopped, threw a sidelong glance at him, and pointed to her temples. Her voice carried a cold mockery
“Mr. Ludwig, having a brain is a blessing that you, sadly, don’t have..
What Keith said to Joyce earlier was infuriating. Selena Price most probably got kicked in the head because of that, so they deserved it.
The corners of Keith’s lips twitched. He looked at Tristan and said, “Is she saying that I don’t have a brain?! What did I say that was so wrong?”
Tristan raised his eyes, which were deep and dark. His tone was cold. “What do you think?”
‘Well… I admit that ent a little overboard, but that’s only because I was too anxious about Selena’s life, which was Hendrick’s only dying wish! How would I know that Selena’s slight bruise looked so serious?’
“But still… That woman shouldn’t have hit someone!”
‘She must be so angry right now! If I really offended that woman, would she post my nudes in a fit of anger?!’
Tristan’s eyebrows were tightly knitted.“
Take her to the hospital for a checkup. I have to leave first.”
“What?” Keith was surprised. “No, I have something to do too!”
‘I need to apologize to Joyce before she remembers that she has my nudes! I’m a man that knows when to give in!’
Tristan did not care about Keith and left as he held his phone. Keith followed behind him closely.
Ingrid stayed where she was, puzzled. So,
I have to accompany Selena?’
Sitting in Kai’s car, Joyce looked down at her phone reading the dozens of messages in the group chat. It was all about lan’s regret for not attending the show.
