Chapter 212
Aside from him… who else could it be? Is it really Stefania? Tessa could not be certain that it was
Stefania. Although she promised to leave Gregory, she could not deny having met Gregory three more
times since then. It was possible that Stefania wanted to take revenge.
However, this matter was very strange. It was far too convoluted, causing her to be depressed. She had
been mulling over this matter for half a day now, but her efforts were in vain. She couldn’t even be
certain who was targeting her. There was only one thing that she could be certain of-the mastermind
behind this incident was somebody in the Sawyer Family.
If I offended somebody or didn’t do a good job, then why didn’t they tell me? Why can’t we talk things out
peacefully? It’s another matter altogether if we can’t come to a peaceful agreement. But, we didn’t even
talk. Why pull such insidious tricks from the shadows? The bourgeoisie are powerful indeed. When they
claim that they want to destroy somebody, then they really intend to destroy that person.
While stewing in her thoughts, she wandered off the pedestrian sidewalk in a
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtdisoriented manner and stepped onto the side of the road. A row of cars honked and shouted at her
angrily as they passed. However, she continued walking forward, as though she didn’t hear them.
All of a sudden, somebody grabbed her by the arm and pulled her back, whereupon a car narrowly
brushed by her side. Only then did she return to her senses. She looked at the person who pulled her
back in confusion, almost as though she did not understand why this person had grabbed her.
This person turned out to be a good-looking young man. He was wearing a well designed casual suit,
and he looked very clean and gentle. His face was fair and amicable, making him seem rather gentle and
elegant. More importantly, she had the feeling that he looked very familiar. It was just that she could not
recall where she had seen him before.
After the man helped to steady her, she finally realized that it was rude of her to stare so brazenly. Thus,
she quickly stood properly. “Thank you.”
The man’s gentle lips curved into a smile. “It’s nothing. But, don’t daydream while you’re walking. It’s very
dangerous.”
She nodded in embarrassment. Now that she thought about it, she felt a sense of lingering fear. She had
failed to notice the danger that was approaching her when the

car drove by and continued to be immersed in her own world. If this man was just one step later, the
consequences would have been disastrous.
The man continued, “You have some scratches on you. They should be treated as soon as possible.”
Reacting to those words, she looked down at her arm and discovered that there were indeed some
scratches. It was just that they were not serious. She was not a vain person; these injuries were nothing
to her. Therefore, she smiled at the man gratefully. “It’s fine. I’ll treat them myself when I get back. Thank
you for your help just now. If there’s nothing else, I’ll be taking my leave now.”
When he saw how uncaring she was toward her own body, he immediately frowned in response.
“Women should cherish and take good care of themselves. You clearly don’t take your body seriously.
Wait for a bit.” Looking around their surroundings, he finally found a relatively large-scale pharmacy
nearby. He continued, “Come with
me.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmFollowing his gaze, she saw the pharmacy and immediately shook her head. “There’s no need. Thank
you very much.”
Her injuries were not so severe that she needed to go to the pharmacy. It would not take long for them to
heal on their own, so there was no need to go to the pharmacy.
“Don’t hesitate. Just come with me. It’s not like I’m going to sell you off.” The man chuckled softly. Acting
as though he had not heard her refusal, he pulled her by the arm and walked in the direction of the
pharmacy.
He might look tall and thin, unlike those who often exercised, but his grip was so strong that it was scary.
No matter how she struggled, she could not pull her arm out of his grasp. On the contrary, her struggles
hurt her arm instead.
It didn’t seem like he was a bad person. Besides, he rescued her just now. If she continued to refuse him
after what he said, it would seem like she was unappreciative of his help. Hence, she sighed to herself in
her heart. I wonder where this enthusiastic passerby came from. Forget it. It’s just buying some
medicine. I might as well go with him.
