Reborn Wife

Chapter 168 

On her skin, there was a faint red bruising that looked like it had began fading. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

It was obviously a hand print if one looked closer.

Bruce's gaze darkened, and his desire to kill Charlie rose again.

‘'Damn it”

He strode towards Olivia and reached out to touch the bruise lightly.

"Does it hurt?" He asked her seriously.

Olivia froze for a moment before she could react.

"It doesn't hurt"

It had already been two days since the incident.

At that time, Charlie had been intent on hurting her, so the marks were obvious due to the force.

After two days, the bruise on her skin had faded away quite a bit.

To not make her parents worry or notice it, Olivia wore clothes that would cover up the bruising.

However, she never expected Bruce to suddenly visit her in the middle of the night-exactly at the moment she finished her shower.

Olivia took two steps back to escape his touch.

"Are you looking for me?" She asked him.

"Yes"

"Why?"

"To see you."

Olivia's eye twitched.She just wanted him to leave already.

"Now you have.Go.I need to rest."

Her tone wasn't polite at all, and a hint of anger was even heard.

Even though Olivia told him to go, Bruce was bent on staying as he stood motionless "Why are you making me leave?"

Olivia rolled her eyes, her temper rising.She didn't care about what he said.

"You like to sneak in through the window, right? You should perform.Let me see how you sneak out."

As she said that, she pushed him forcefully.

When he didn't budge, she used more strength to push him.

All of a sudden, a ripping sound caused her to stop.

She felt a chill run through her body, which made her look down.

Silk pajamas were incomparably comfortable but they weren't exactly a good choice when forcibly pushing someone away.

She had pushed him forcefully that her pajamas ripped open at the side.

Olivia went silent.

Bruce was stunned.

The atmosphere turned awkward.

The two of them froze at the same time.

"Ah!"

Olivia was the first to react and immediately stepped back.

She hurriedly grabbed the coat beside him and put it on, her face turning red.

'I don't know if I'm angry with myself or with him!"

Although Bruce was quick to turn away, Olivia was still furious.

She kicked his shin and spoke angrily, "You bastard!"

He didn't dodge, and Olivia's kick was basically her venting her anger.

When he looked at her again, his handsome face was serious.

"Alright, I'll take care of it."

Olivia gritted her teeth, "Who told you to take responsibility?"

"You're a responsibility to me."

Bruce sighed softly, suppressing the smile on his lips.

"You're innocent, after all."

‘'Innocent?’’

The implication was that she was innocent, and as the culprit, he had to take responsibility.

Olivia almost continued to argue with him about that topic.

‘'Speaking of which, who isn't innocent here?'’

But the more she thought about it, the more wrong and confused she became, and so she refrained from rebutting.

"Alright, it's late.You should leave."

Olivia sat on the bed and looked at him as she waited for him to leave.

Bruce merely raised his eyebrows and smiled at her carelessly.

"Don't you have anything you want to know? Or ask me?"
