Chapter 7

“What? Are you gonna throw yourself in my…”

Bruce turned around in disdain, only to see a furious Joanna pouncing on him with her high heels in her hands like a lion cub. Before Bruce could know what had happened, he had been hit more than a dozen times.

“Why are you always so mean to me? What do I owe you? Huh? Why are you always so arrogant and full of shit!”

Bruce was so stunned that he forgot to fight back at all. He just stood up straight and took the hit.

All the years he had known Joanna, she had always been as timid as a lamb. She did not even dare to speak too loudly, let alone hit anyone with her

If anyone messed with her, she fought back.

“How dare you kick me?”

“I’ll kick you again if you continue to offend me. We’d better stay out of each other’s way. Don’t think I’m afraid of you.”
