Chapter 106: I don’t joke when it comes to you
Diana remembered hitting her forehead on the floor as she fell on her face. The store room was dark and she had shouted for help but no one dared to help. She had screamed about being hungry, she was cold, she was scared as her head bled but she was just left there alone with what felt like a shattered wrist, aching in pain. There was not even a single window in that room...
She was alone and she gradually started losing consciousness....
’’Diana!"
Diana’s dazed eyes regained focus as she looked at Maxim, confused and lost, ’’Yes...?" her voice was hoarse and she realized that she felt something salty in her mouth, a wetness trailing down her cheeks.
Maxim’s expressions were beyond terrifying. His hair was in a mess as a result of being raked over again and again.
It has been 3 minutes. 3 whole minutes since he came here, witnessed this scene, and kept calling for her but she seemed to be in a trance. And he was scared...
To avoid shocking her, he did not touch her and kept standing at a distance and every passing second seemed to be the hit of a sledgehammer on his heart filling him with regret.
He should have known better than to let her work here.
Veronica’s face turned pale when she saw Maxim. She had been indignant about this woman who get this job which was meant to be hers. But now confusion filled her. This bloody assistant... was not just an assistant, was she?
As soon as Diana came out of her trance, Maxim just wanted to press her into his arms but his eyes caught the sight of her hand.
Maxim’s cold gaze shifted to the woman who was clutching Diana’s wrist, ’’Hands off,’’ his voice was covered in a layer of frost.
