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.

If anyone messed with her, she fought back.

“Ow!” Bruce was caught off guard and was kicked in the crotch. The pain coming from the most vulnerable part of him made his eyebrows twitch.

“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.”
