The Clutches Of Hell Novel

Chapter 125

As soon as Janice heard that, she stopped in her tracks abruptly and ran over to stand in front of the two guys. She lowered her head to take a look at Christian’s hem. If she was not intimidated by him, she would have been so tempted to pull up his hem and take a look at the wound.

However, Victoria continued to move forward without stopping at all and she headed in the direction of the car by herself without giving a toss about what was going on behind.

Christian watched her disappearing figure and he frowned slightly before replying, “I’m fine.”

Matthew followed his gaze and looked in the same direction. He lifted his brows slightly and strode over to stand in front of Victoria as he stopped her in her tracks. “Miss Coleman, I’ve got to send Janice back and I have some work to deal with at the firm, so I can’t spare the time to send Christian to the hospital. Could you accompany him to get his wound checked out at the hospital?”

“Didn’t he just say he’s fine?” Victoria responded calmly.

Matthew overtook her and spared a look at Christian before coughing mildly. “Christian, your wound’s started to bleed again. I think you should get it checked at the hospital to prevent any complications. What do you say?”

Pausing for a moment, Christian acted naturally as he glanced at Victoria, who was standing not too far from them. “That’s fine with me.”

“I’m sorry, but I’ve got an early shift tomorrow morning, so I don’t have time either. See you.” After Victoria said that, she did not give Matthew a chance to convince her to stay as she instantly hailed a cab and hopped onto it.

As soon as she shut the car door, Janice swiftly entered the car from the other side and wound down the window to say to Matthew joyfully, “Sir, since you’re busy, then there’s no need to send me home. I’ll catch a cab with Victoria.”

Subsequently, she said to Christian softly and solemnly, “See you, Mr. Thatcher.”

The man did not respond at all as he merely directed his dark, moody eyes on Victoria’s side profile inside the car. He pursed his thin lips and there seemed to be a turbulent look in his eyes.

Inside the car, Victoria did not bother to spare him a glance or say anything to him despite sensing his gaze on her.

“Miss Mooney, where are you headed?” She turned to look at Janice by her side.

Janice hastily replied, “Town Hall; I’ll get off at the… the Town Hall Station!”
