"You're injured," Luca took a step back. She figured that it was unlikely that only her face was wounded.

“Those who have eyes would know that they should get out of the way. Excuse me." Marie ran out of patience. How she wished that she could throw a tantrum at the person in front of her.

Marie was injured, and Jean was the one who beat her up.

However, she could not call the police to report him for the sake of surviving. She thought of heading to the pharmacy to dress her wound, but the staff working in the pharmacy dared not to help her. She had no choice but to come to the hospital.

The doctor asked her if she was facing domestic violence. She did not dare to admit it. If she admitted it, the medical staff in the hospital would call the police anytime. If Jean was caught and thrown into prison, she would not have anyone to depend on.

That was why she had no choice but to say she was injured from a fall.

The doctor did not expose her and suggested she take an X-ray to see if her bones were injured. However, she did not have the money, so she rejected the offer and asked the nurse to dress her wounds.

She did not expect to run into Luca on such an unlucky day.

Luca, who stood in front of her, was stylish and glamorous. She wore an expensive branded big coat. It was incomparable to the one she was wearing that only cost a few hundred dollars.

Moreover, she was not as flustered as Marie was. Luca's features were delicate, and she looked spirited.

Marie could not help but be green with envy. They were both women, but she had become like this while Luca was living a wonderful life.

Why?!

“Was it Jean who did this to you?" Luca asked again.

Marie paused for a moment. She turned around and mocked her. “What nonsense are you talking about?"

“The wounds on your face were obviously caused by someone," Luca said with confidence. Her eyes were dark as she was preoccupied with something.

“You got it wrong. I accidentally fell and injured myself. Stop thinking that you know everything," jeered Marie as she clasped the pills in her hand tightly.

Luca knew why Marie was defending Jean, and she reminded her in a soft voice, “A man who beats you up will beat you again. There's always a second time. I think you should consider it."
