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.

“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.”
