Chapter 120 Don't Provoke Her
"Martin, I didn't!"
Gretchen refused to admit it, crying as she explained, "I was trying to call Gwenda and talk to her, but I
didn't expect to run into that girl, and I slipped. Then it ended up like this..."
"Then why did you frame the girl?"
Martin frowned.
"I was confused due to the fall. If I hadn't seen the video, I would've thought that the girl was the one
who pushed me."
Gretchen sniffed miserably and sobbed. "Martin, you know me. How could I deliberately cause trouble
for my sister? Don't be affected by her words... I really didn't..."
She began to cry, her weak shoulders shaking with the force of her sobs.
...
Martin looked at her and saw how pathetic she was, which caused his anger to fade and a sense of pity
to rise instead.
Crouching down, he wiped away the tears on her cheeks. "Alright, darling, don't cry anymore. I just
wanted to figure out the whole story. Don't overthink it, okay?"
"Then... Do you still think that I did it on purpose?"
Gretchen asked in a whimper.
"Silly, I know you, don't I? You're the kindest girl on this planet. How could you have done it on
purpose?"
Martin patted her head.
Gretchen bit her lip. "This matter was my fault, anyway. How about I apologise to my sister personally
after getting discharged?"
Martin paused as he recalled the way Gwenda and Olivier had acted around each other. Then, he
frowned. "Forget it. No matter how you apologise, she will never change her opinion of you. Don't
provoke her anymore."
"I really don't have to?"
"Yeah, just do as I say."
"Okay."
Gretchen nodded and looked down. A sharp glint flashed through her eyes at that angle where Martin
could not see them.
...
On the way back from the hospital, Gwenda apologised to Wendy. "This happened because of me. You
must have gotten quite a shock. I'm sorry."
"It's okay, Gwenda. I'm fine."
Wendy smiled.
In the driver's seat, Olivier snorted. "Relax, she's one cheeky girl. She won't be so easily shocked."
"Olivier!!"
Wendy glared at him and grimaced.
Olivier raised his eyebrows. "Was I wrong?"
"Humph, I'm going to ignore you!"
Wendy returned her attention to Gwenda and asked curiously, "Gwenda, was that really your sister?
She feels really b*tchy to me, 'cause she acts like some delicate flower, but wasn't at all that shy when
she was framing others."
"When you see her in the future, just stay away from her. She's not someone to be taken lightly."
Gwenda advised her.
Wendy nodded. "Got it. I'll naturally stay as far away as I can from nasty women like her."
Melanie knew nothing of tonight's unexpected accident.
Therefore, when she saw the three of them entering the villa together, she was surprised. "What did
you all do?"
"We just strolled around."
Olivier replied casually. This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
"Weren't they taking a soak in the hot springs? Did you go too?"
"Yeah."
Melanie turned to glare at Wendy. "Come here."
Wendy was confused. "Grandmama, what's wrong?"
"Why are you following your cousin and your sister-in-law on that stroll? Are you trying to be a third
wheel?!"
"I..."
Wendy was unjustly accused.
"Alright, that's enough. Help me upstairs to rest."
Melanie tugged on her hand and dragged her upstairs.
With their departure, only Gwenda and Olivier remained downstairs.
There seemed to be a shift in the atmosphere, and Gwenda could not bear to stay any longer. "Um...
I'm going upstairs too."
With that, she left as quickly as she could.
Staring at her retreating silhouette, Olivier smirked slightly before he went upstairs as well.
...
Back in her room, Gwenda reorganised her belongings before grabbing a fresh set of clothes. Then,
she entered the bathroom.
Finishing her shower, Gwenda exited the bathroom only to hear someone knock on her door.
She walked over to the door while drying her hair with a towel before opening it.
At this moment, Olivier appeared before her. "Just finished your shower?"
