Chapter 124 Take a shower!
Chapter 124 Take a shower!
In the end, I didn't say a word. The two of us returned to Evie's house in silence.
As soon as she opened the door, Evie came over. She saw Dylan and I coming back with a smile, but
when she saw my clothes, her smile froze on her face.
This shirt was worn by Brandon yesterday. Evie must remember it. After all, Brandon was the kind of
man who attracted everyone's attention.
"Hollie, you're back."
Evie held my hand, and the expression on her face became a little unnatural.
"Yes, I'm back. Evie, are you alright? Does your face still hurt?"
Although it had been a night, Evie's face was still terribly swollen, and there was even a bruise on the
corner of her mouth.
This was all done by that woman and Gabriel. This shameless couple had gone too far.
"I'm fine. I'm much better now. It's you who got you into trouble for nothing. If it weren't for me, your
face wouldn't have become like this. It's all my fault."
Evie gave me a hug and looked at me guiltily. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
"It doesn't matter. We're good friends. Of course, we can enjoy the blessings together. If we have
difficulties, we can do it together. Watching you being bullied for nothing, do I have to sit back and
watch?"
Although I was beaten, I didn't feel wronged, because it was for the sake of Evie, my best friend.
"Mr. Moss, you're here too."
Looking at my neck, the smile on her face became a little stiff. Then she looked at Dylan and greeted
him.
"Well, I called her again and again, but no one answered, so I came to see her. I happened to see her
coming back when I was downstairs."
Dylan's tone was faint, and there was no smile on his face.
"I called you last night because..."
"Hollie. You'd better take a shower and change your clothes first."
I was going to explain, but before I could finish my words, I was interrupted by Dylan. He still cared
about my clothes, and he asked me to take a shower. Did he think I was dirty?
However, he could understand this thought. His woman had been slept with another man. Any man
would think that she was dirty, wouldn't he?
However, Dylan's attitude made me dislike him very much. I knew it was my fault, but I would rather he
quarreled with me and scolded me. I didn't like his cold violence.
"Yeah, don't worry. You'd better take a shower. Look at how embarrassed you are now."
Evie was the one who knew me best. She knew that I was dissatisfied with Dylan. When I wanted to kill
him or something, he quickly stood up and pushed me into the bathroom.
Evie locked me in the bathroom, and I calmed down a lot. I kept telling myself in my heart that I should
endure it. Anyway, things had become like this. It was reasonable for Dylan to be angry. If he was not
angry, I should be anxious.
I opened the shower and kept washing my body, feeling more and more annoyed. I really didn't know
how to deal with my relationship with Brandon and Dylan.
Half an hour later, I changed into my clothes and walked out of the bathroom. Brandon was still talking
to Dylan in the living room.
I sat opposite Dylan. Looking into his eyes, I lowered my head guiltily.
"Evie just told me what happened after I left last night. I'm sorry that I didn't help much. When you
called me, I was busy talking to the client, but I didn't hear my phone ringing. I'm sorry..."
Before I spoke, Dylan spoke first. I thought he would complain about me, but he apologized to me.
Looking at his sincere apology, my previous dissatisfaction with him disappeared in an instant. No
matter what happened yesterday, I was the one who did something wrong. He was not wrong, but he
apologized to me. I was a little moved.
"The one who should apologize is me. It was me last night..."
Dylan apologized to me, and I felt even more guilty. I should be satisfied to have such a man who could
tolerate me. After all, it was my fault.
"Well, what happened last night is in the past. I don't want to mention it anymore. Don't talk about it
again in the future. Hollie, we both want to be together sincerely. I hope that what happened last night
won't happen again. I am a man, and I can't accept betrayal again and again."
Although Dylan had already intended to forgive me, he still couldn't do what happened between
Brandon and me last night as if nothing had happened. I understood him. If it were me, I would have
broken up a long time ago. I couldn't accept it. There was a little stain on my relationship, just like
Vaughn in the past.
"I'm sorry. I promise I won't do it again. It's really an accident this time..."
"Although I slept with Brandon, I didn't do it voluntarily. I put my feelings for Dylan in my heart. I also
know that I can't betray our relationship."
"Miss. Stokes, do you have a medical kit here?"
Dylan didn't continue this topic. He turned to look at Evie and said lightly.
"Yes, I'll get it now."
Hearing Dylan's words, Evie immediately stood up and went to the room to get the first-aid kit. After
that, she handed it to Dylan.
Dylan took out the swollen ointment from the medicine chest and sat down beside me.
He smeared my face with a cotton stick. Although it had been a night, the swelling was certainly not so
fast. His movements were very gentle, as if he was afraid of hurting me.
Seeing that Dylan had applied the medicine on me, Evie sensibly returned to her room.
I couldn't help but think of the scene when Brandon applied medicine on me last night. He was also so
gentle that it was difficult for him to be gentle in Brandon's eyes.
Brandon's face appeared in my mind again. I shook my head irritably. I didn't want to think about him
anymore, but when I touched Dylan's hand, it hurt so much that I grimaced in pain.
"Are you okay? Did I hurt you?"
Dylan looked at me anxiously with distress in his eyes.
"No... no."
I quickly denied it. His movements were already very light. I moved around on my own. I didn't blame
him at all.
"I shouldn't have left last night. If I hadn't left, you wouldn't have suffered in the police station."
Looking at my face, Dylan still looked distressed.
"This matter has nothing to do with you. You left because of your work, and no one expected that such
a thing would happen. Fortunately, Evie and I came out safely, otherwise, I really didn't know when we
would come out.
Dylan's face was full of self-blame, but that thing really had nothing to do with her. No one could predict
it. And fortunately, Brandon arrived in time, so Evie and I were not forced to sign.
