What Separates Me and You

Chapter 226 She Owned Nothing

Smoking a cigarette, Lewis’ gaze fell on the leaf-strewn pedestrian walkway outside the windscreen. He hadn’t spoken for a long time.

Sierra waited until he finished the cigarette before hearing him say, “Do you still want to go to the hospital?”

Sierra paused and looked at the wounds on her hands. The blood had stopped flowing, but the wounds looked gory. Moodily, she said, “Of course. Look at the bites. I should at least get the

rabies vaccination done.”

After she said that, Lewis cast her a meaningful glance.

Sierra pursed her lips, fearless. She knew to which extent Lewis could tolerate, and that was

her merit.

Women needed to know how to keep men wanting more, especially men like Lewis, who had encountered women of different temperaments.

Being mischievous once in a while worked well to stir their interest. As long as they stayed within the boundaries, it would stop men from getting bored too soon.

Lewis discarded the cigarette butt out the window and started the car to bring Sierra to the

hospital.

The doctor shot Sierra a peculiar look when she insisted on taking the rabies vaccination jab. He said, “This doesn’t look like the bite mark of an animal.”

Sierra said, “Is there a difference? Will I not get infected if someone with rabies bit me?”

“Um… there’s a small possibility,” replied the doctor. He continued, “But I can give you the injection if you insist.”

“Get it done, then. I’ll feel more at peace.”

After they left, Josephine tidied the mess the puppies caused and cleaned the excrement at the doorway.

She picked up the remains of the divorce certificate on the floor and glued them back. Sitting on the sofa, she gently ran her fingers over the cracks on it.

The entire certificate was fragmented, but Lewis’ name remained intact, staring coldly at her like his icy eyes.
