Chapter 18

Frowned, Joanna looked at Roxanne and asked, “What are you doing?”

Roxanne merely sneered. She turned around and slammed her head against the wall. In an instant, her forehead was swollen.

Roxanne collapsed weakly on the floor and started moaning, “Ouch, it hurts. Don’t hit me, Joann, please. Help!”

Bruce heard the noise and pushed the door open in a hurry.

Then he saw Roxanne lying on the floor and covering her head pitifully.

“What’s going on?”

Roxanne looked at Joanna in horror and said weakly, “Joann, she hits me. She just hits me…”

Bruce took a glance at Roxanne’s forehead. There was a bruise.

“It hurts!” Roxanne sobbed, looking so poor.

That finally convinced Bruce.

“Joanna Haynes, how could you do that to Roxy? She is your sister!”

Joanna tried so hard not to roll her eyes. “She hit the wall herself, and I never touched her. I had nothing to do with it.”

“Oh, stop it! How can Roxy be so stupid as to run herself into a wall?”

“Fine, fine, what do you want then?” Joanna looked at them wearily and with disdain.

“I want you to apologize to Roxy!”

Joanna narrowed her eyes at his words. Arms folded, she stared coldly at Bruce and Roxanne.

“This is no drama show. What’s the point of playing such little tricks?” she said icily.
