Chapter 67 Show of Affection

Sebastian's eyes narrowed.

His gaze was icy, like a frozen lake.

"Joey, anything but this. Name your price."

"But this is all I want, Mr. Winters. You can't back out now."

Sebastian's stern face loomed closer, his tall frame pinning her down.

His hot breath washed over her face.

"Joey, are you that desperate to get rid of me? So eager to run into another man's arms?"

Joey met his gaze calmly, "Whatever you think."

Sebastian's voice turned cold and ruthless, "Forget it. You're not leaving until our contract is up! I'll make sure the Vales pay for this."

With that, he slammed the door and left.

No one knew how Sebastian pressured Isabella, but she ended up in a hospital gown, apologizing to Joey.

The Vale Family also compensated Joey for emotional distress but warned they wouldn't go easy on her when court convenes on the third.

Joey didn't tell her dad, Benjamin Blackwood, about her near-drowning, afraid it would upset him.

The day she was discharged, she planned to go back to her small apartment but got a call from Benjamin.

"Dad, what's up?"

Benjamin's voice was cheerful, "Joey, I'm at the construction site. I forgot my medicine. Can you bring it to me?"

Joey knew the consequences of her dad missing his meds, so she agreed without hesitation.

She grabbed the medicine from the hospital pharmacy and drove straight to the site.
