What Separates Me and You

Chapter 270 His Injuries Are Too Severe

The first thing Conrad witnessed upon arriving at the City Hall was the sight of Lewis’

wretched state.

He didn’t even have time to grab an umbrella. The moment he opened the car door, he rushed toward Lewis and quickly supported him. “Chairman Alvarez, are you alright?”

Clearly, that was a stupid question. When Conrad was chasing behind Lewis’ car, he witnessed it crashing into the divider, which almost gave him a heart attack.

Just as the assistant was about to call the emergency hotline, he noticed his boss staggering out of the ruined car before forcing him out of his car and driving it away.

By the time Conrad was able to catch up to Lewis again, that was the exact scene he witnessed.

“I’m fine.” Lewis placed one hand on the hood of his car as he got ready to stand up. However, he wobbled dangerously before collapsing on the spot.

“Chairman Alvarez!”

Josephine walked for a significant distance, dragging Quintin along with her. Finally, she came to a halt and released him.

Then, she turned around to look at him.

At that moment, the young woman’s wet hair was a total mess, not to mention she was still drenched. Water droplets continued to fall off the ends of her hair as she gestured, “Did you get hurt?”

Quintin stared at Josephine blankly for a moment before shaking his head instinctively. When he finally registered what her sign language depicted, he quickly added, “Right. I’m fine.”

Overall, he was doing fine, save for the punch that Lewis had thrown at him. Even though that punch might seem mighty, it didn’t hurt much when it made contact with his face.

Josephine noticed the bruise starting to form on Quintin’s chin, making her feel guilty. She had no idea that Lewis would chase them all the way to the City Hall and start picking a fight with them like a mad dog.

What confused her was that Lewis had seemed so uncaring and unbothered when Robert called him earlier.

Jack soon caught up to the couple via his car. He wound down his window while hollering at thern, “Get into the car, you two!”

Quintin nodded immediately before shooting Josephine a look. Then, he dragged her into the

car.
