Chapter 266 - 262: Don’t You Ever Learn? (Part 4)
Sophie Smith just treated his words as nonsense, she was too lazy to talk to him now, let alone get close to him.
Alright then, he was just trying to be nice and keep her warm, but she still acted like they had a deep-seated enmity, all for another man?
Neither of them spoke to each other, and an hour later, the car finally stopped at the Land Family villa.
Robert Williams, the driver, truly breathed a sigh of relief from deep in his heart.
There was only one umbrella in the car, and it seemed she was unwilling to share it with him.
Asher Land didn’t say a word, opened the car door, and walked straight to the villa hall in the rain.
"Miss Smith, your umbrella." Robert handed the umbrella to Sophie, who nodded and said thank you, then opened the umbrella and followed his steps.
As soon as they entered the living room, Nanny Garcia was shocked to see Asher Land completely soaked.
"Young master, what happened to you?" Before Nanny Garcia finished speaking, Sophie Smith also limped in carrying her umbrella, equally drenched by the rain.
"Miss Smith..." Nanny Garcia was suddenly at a loss, and neither of them looked good. Many servants were standing in the hall, and Irene Morton, hearing the commotion, also came down from upstairs.
"Brother Asher, Sister Sophie, did you go out without an umbrella?" Irene asked with feigned concern, seeing the expressions on Asher and Sophie’s faces, she knew they were having an argument, something she delighted in witnessing.
"Nanny Garcia, go run a bath for her, and also, has Doctor Lewis been called over?" Asher glanced at her ankle, which was already very swollen.
"Doctor Lewis hasn’t arrived yet; it will probably take another ten minutes..."
Seeing her having difficulty moving, Asher was about to reach out to carry her upstairs, but she pushed him away in resistance.
"Go away, I don’t want you to touch me!"
Since parting with Wyatt Sterling, she hadn’t looked him in the eye, and now she was shouting at him, was that man really that important to her?
"What do you mean? I can’t touch you but Wyatt Sterling can? Don’t tell me you’re still thinking about your fling?" His expression remained indifferent, with a mocking smile on his lips.
"Asher Land, can’t you not speak so harshly?" Did he even understand what really happened? Tyrant!
"Harsh? Ha, if I hadn’t shown up in time today, would you have ended up in bed with him?"
Sophie’s face went pale, biting her lifeless lips firmly, while everyone present widened their eyes. What nonsense was their young master spouting?
She only felt utterly humiliated, how could he say such things? On what grounds?
"Not speaking, am I right? It seems I’m not satisfying you in bed, so you have to look for another man?..."
"Asher Land, you bastard!" Sophie raised her hand and slapped Asher Land hard across the face.
"Miss Smith!..." Nanny Garcia didn’t even have time to stop it before a crisp slap echoed in the hall.
That slap seemed to carry all her strength, landing squarely on his face, pushing his face to the side.
Those around couldn’t help but gasp, my God, did Miss Smith have the courage of a lion today, daring to hit the young master?
The air seemed to freeze, and no one made a sound, holding their breaths and bowing their heads, keeping a safe distance from Sophie Smith and Asher Land.
On his fair face, five bright red finger marks were immediately visible, and there was a trace of blood on the corner of his mouth.
Sophie’s hand slowly fell; she must have gone mad today; she actually dared to slap him?
