I’m Sorry But I Love You

Chapter 21

Catherine was not concerned about Anderson’s attitude and didn’t even look at him.

“This must be Ms. Johnson.” The lady who spoke to Anderson stood up and walked to Catherine as she smiled, “I’m Allison, the doctor hired by Anderson. I heard that you’re hurt.”

Catherine nodded.

Allison smiled warmly, “Is it convenient for you to come with me so that I can examine the wound?” Catherine looked at Lincoln and didn’t want to leave him for a moment.

Lincoln looked at Catherine with his black eyes and said, “Go ahead, mommy, I’ll wait for you outside.”

The wound was increasingly painful. Catherine couldn’t bear the pain much longer and released Lincoln’s hand and nodded to Allison.

“Mommy, pass me your cellphone. I’ll record a video for Sophia.” Lincoln took Catherine’s phone and walked off.

Allison smiled radiantly at Anderson and said, “Andy, can we borrow your room to examine Ms. Johnson?”

Anderson looked at Catherine and gently raised his eyebrow.

“Okay, your silence is acceptance, “Allison pulled Catherine into the rest room at the rear of Anderson’s office.

As she closed the door of the rest room, Allison’s smile turned cold as she asked, “May I ask Ms. Johnson where you are hurt?” “On the leg,” Catherine answered but didn’t notice the change in Allison’s expression.

Just now as Catherine walked quickly to keep up with Allison, her wound started to bleed again. Catherine endured the pain as she pulled up her dress to avoid being stained by the blood.

Allison looked at the blood on Catherine’s thigh and smiled sinisterly. Her eyes lit up devilishly when she saw a bottle of alcohol in the first aid box. She opened the bottle and splashed the alcohol onto Catherine’s thigh. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

“Ah!” Catherine screamed when the wound stung intensely as soon as the alcohol was splashed onto it.

Lincoln was waiting outside and opened the door when he heard Catherine’s scream, “Mommy, what happened to you?” Allison didn’t expect that LincoIn would be by the door and smiled, “Don’t worry, I’m disinfecting your mother’s wound.”

Anderson walked over when he heard the commotion. He looked at the normally fair and gorgeous Catherine. But now her forehead was full of sweat and some of her hair was wet. He then looked at his leg and saw blood trickling from her thigh to the lower leg. Her skirt was also stained with blood. She looked very pitiful.

The air was thick with the smell of alcohol and Anderson asked, “What’s the matter?”

“Andy, Ms. Johnson’s wound is too serious. I used some alcohol to disinfect the wound.” Allison pretended to be concerned, “Perhaps the alcohol was too strong and Ms. Johnson couldn’t endure it. I came in a hurry and didn’t bring any betadine. Can you have the assistant to buy some?”

Anderson frowned, “It’s too troublesome, just use the alcohol.” He then looked at Catherine and said, “It’s better that she learned her lesson.”

Then he pulled Lincoln and said, “Let’s go.” Lincoln didn’t move and looked at Catherine.

Anderson became impatient and said with some anger in his tone, “Hey Lincoln, are you leaving with me? If you don’t leave, then I will never let you see this woman again.”

Lincoln ground his teeth and left with Anderson reluctantly. He then pushed Anderson away and ran out of the office as he yelled, ‘lll go and buy the betadine!”

When Catherine saw that Lincoln was about to run out, she endured the pain and shouted, “Stop!

Lincoln was dumbfounded as he looked at Catherine.

“Mommy’s handbag has the medicine. Bring it over to mommy.”

Catherine endured the pain and maintained her cool as she looked at Allison, “Don’t have to inconvenience Ms. Peterson.” Allison laughed softly and said, “Why didn’t tell me that you already have the medicine? If I had known I wouldn’t have used the alcohol to disinfect for you.”

How Allison turned it around to accuse Catherine! Catherine scoffed, looked coldly at Anderson as she wondered where he hired this doctor, “Ms. Peterson, please say directly if you are interested in Anderson. You don’t have to splash the alcohol on my leg in the pretense of disinfecting my wound.”

Allison’s expression changed and looked nervously at Anderson, “Andy, I didn’t.”

Catherine took the medicine from Lincoln and looked coldly at Allison, “You don’t have to regard me as your competitor. Don’t think that Anderson is some hunk that everyone likes. I for one do not have any interest in him.”

Disgusted? She wasn’t interested in him? Not even a little? Was this her attitude towards him?”

Anderson became upset, looked with disdain at Allison who was still trying to explain herself, and said impatiently, “Get out.” “Andy, I really didn’t. Don’t listen to her nonsense.” Allison bit her lips and tried desperately to explain herself.

“Remove her,” Andy ordered.

Arthur who stood as far away as he could quickly rush over and said, “Ms. Allison, please.”

“Andy, you said before that she was full of tricks. You must believe me.” Allison said before leaving.

It was as if Catherine didn’t hear her. She turned to assure Lincoln, “Lincoln, go and record a video for your sister. Mommy will dress up the wound.”

Lincoln looked very worried.

“Mommy can do it. This is not the first time I dress up my wound.” She didn’t have the time to dress up her would that morning when she bought the medicine.

Lincoln nodded, “I’ll get some candies for mommy. It won’t be painful after you eat the candies.”

Catherine ground her teeth as she cleaned her wound. She broke out in cold sweat as she endured the pain but didn’t make a sound for fear of worrying Lincoln.

Anderson and Lincoln waited in the office as they stared at each other. Lincoln’s cute face looked uneasy as his eyes lit up and said, “Do you know what my mother experienced in the prison?”

Anderson frowned, “She killed someone. Regardless of what she experienced, it was her own doing.”

Lincoln was about to say something else when Anderson glanced at him and said, “I won’t forgive her even if she tried to act pitiful.”

Lincoln looked disappointed and kept silent.

Catherine came out of the rest room. A tall secretary smiled and gave her a parcel, “Ms. Johnson, these clothes were bought for you by Mr. Clark.

Her dress was already stained with blood and she didn’t want to scare Lincaln o she went back into the room to change her clothes.

When she came out of the rest area, Lincoln served her a plate of candies, “Mommy, have some candies.” Catherine smiled and took two candies. She unwrapped one and placed it in Lincoln’s mouth, “Have one too.” “I was first in my cohort for the examination at the new school.” Lincoln shared a piece of good news with Catherine.

Catherine also shared a piece of happy news with Lincoln. Both of them started to laugh as Anderson sat behind the computer. He was working but couldn’t help but be distracted by the laughter nearby.

Arthur looked at the time and it was time for the young master to eat. He hesitated for a while before saying, “Mr. Clark, do you want to invite Ms. White for dinner?”

Anderson frowned slightly and walked towards Catherine and Lincoln. He looked down on Lincoln and said, “Let’s go and have our dinner.”

Lincoln was unwilling to and then looked at Anderson, “You can go and eat with Ms. White, I want to eat with my mommy.”
