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.

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?”
