Chapter 83

Chapter 083 Playing the Martyr Hailey was correct, Owen looks badly injured, but all were some superficial injuries, Although Jared was ruthless, this time he showed mercy. It was true that he was doing this for her while it was also true that he had scruple to offend Mazedew Group. But even if they were just superficial injuries, Owen may not let him go. She hated Jared for his self–assertion. She hated trouble, but he actually found trouble for her. She wondered that if he thought she was living an easy life after back to Paya? But what confused her most was Owen Even if the gang was powerful, they were no match for a SWAT officer.

Why would he be beaten so badly? Hailey stood by the bed with her arms cross, quietly looking at Owen. Her expression was frozen cold. Owen had awaken and dressed in a hospital gown, with his head wrapped in white bandages. His face was as pale as paper. An energetic man who was arguing with her only hours ago now became a sickly beauty.

“Why are you looking at me like that?” Owen felt somewhat guilty by her gaze, ‘I look terrible now, right?” Hailey said coldly, “Don‘t worry. Not as terrible as three years ago, when you were a paraplegic.”

Owen felt like he got pricked in the heart and couldn‘t help but cough. Matthew was distressed and went over to pat Owen‘s back, discontentedly blaming Hailey, “Hailey, he‘s still a patient. Don‘t irritate him.

Couldn‘t you say something nice?”

Hailey just said, “I will give you an answer for this. But likewise, you also have to give me an answer.

She gave Owen a deep look and said to Matthew, “Take good care of him. I‘ll come tomorrow. I won‘t disturb your bromance night.”

N Owen and Matthew were both speechless by her words. They watched Hailey leave and looked at each other, both saw the dislike in each other‘s eyes and immediately let go of each other‘s hand.

Matthew had a worried look on his face, “She won‘t think that we are in that kind of relationship, right?”

He held out his finger and curved it. Owen felt disgusted and rolled his eyes to him, “Even if you were, I wouldn‘t be.” “Fuck you, I‘m straight!” Matthew was not stocky enough but he could be threatening by raising his voice. He also straightened up but Owen just ignored him, covering the chest and lightly coughing again. “Does it hurt a lot?” Seeing this, Matthew stopped joking and looked at him with worry, “You are not as strong as before since the car accident. How could those little minions hurt you if this happened three year ago?”

Owen said indifferently, “Just skin trauma, it‘s not that serious.” “Not serious? Who is lying in the hospital bed now?” Matthew poked the bruise on Owen‘s cheek, which caused Owen to flinch and hiss. He gave Matthew an angry glance.

“You know who did this to you, right?” Matthew asked coldly.

won raiced his eyes and looked at him “Why do you say that Jose snorted lightly, “You can fool others, but not me. You‘re not a troublemaker, but if troubles come to you, you won‘t hide. But what happened today, I just think you asked for it.” Jose told Matthew everything that happened and Matthew felt it quiet odd. Why a president who cherished time like gold suddenly became a sentimental literary youth and went for a walk? Why he didn‘t let Jose and bodyguards to follow him? And why he walked to the deep alley? Matthew and Owen had the same military background. Matthew knew better than anyone that Owen had strong vigilance. Even if someone would steal up on and he was covered by a sack, at least he could struggle. Unless he clearly knew that there was a trap, but deliberately jumped in, which called “taking the bull by the horns.”

Owen opened his eyes lazily, “I ask for it? Yeah, I enjoyed being beating up.” “Of course you won‘t do this kind of stupid thing, but in times of emergency, not necessarily. I heard that you were rejected by Hailey again tonight.” Matthew had a gloating expression, “You know, when people get in the corner, they will break the boat. Difficult times often bring out the best in people. This is called playing the martyr. I‘ve played it before. I‘m quite familiar with that.” Owen said indifferently, “So, no pot calling the kettle black.” “Haha, I‘ve got you!” Matthew, who had drawn out Owen‘s words, immediately became excited, “Dude, are you stupid? You risked everything to win back Hailey‘s heart? You‘re not afraid of getting yourself killed?” Owen said disdainfully, “Those little minions are not able to kill me.” Looking at Owen‘s bruised face, Matthew shook his head with a sigh, “Sure enough, even smart men, when they meet their destined foe, they would be fools.” The destined foe... Owen pondered and felt that it was very appropriate to describe the feelings that Hailey gave him. Whether he learned that Hailey had a crush on him for ten years, or suddenly realized that he had fallen in love with Hailey, they had all subverted his understanding of love. He used to think that love was being accompanying and there was no so–called uncontrollable emotion, which was all imagined by those pretentious poets. But after he experienced it, he knew that he could not help it, and it made him helpless.

After Owen woke up, the police came over again. They wanted to know what the victim had to say. But Owen said it was just a misunderstanding, nothing serious, and withdrew the report. After seeing the police off, Jose asked Owen, “So you know who did this?” Owen said, “It‘s not hard to guess.”

Matthew frowned and suddenly remembered Hailey‘s words. “I will give him an answer.” A thought sprang to him mind, “Jared Gomez?”

Owen‘s deep browe narrowed, “I think so.”

At the Nomad, Brook tried to stop Hailey all the way, “Welt well little six, how big a thing ah, do not get angry do not get angry ....

“Get out of my way!” Hailey put on a grim face and kicked the door open. In the private room, many girls were having fun with Jared. They were all shocked when the door was open. The lively atmosphere died down.

Hailey stared at Jared, who was sitting on the sofa, and said in a cold voice, “You girls, get out.” Girls looked at Jared in unison. Jared picked up a cherry and put it into his mouth without saying a word.

The air in the room seemed to be freeze.

Brook stroked his forehead and waved his hand to gesture the girls out. As he closed the door, he said, “Keep cool. No arguing, okay?” As soon as he said that, Hailey shook her fist at Jared, “Jared, look what you have done!”
