Chapter 77 Can I Hug You?

Kerwin was stunned. He didn’t expect that

Betty would make such a request.

He didn’t answer. Betty seemed to respond

and realize what she had just said. She

blushed and quickly forced a stiff smile,

pretending to say casually, “Well… I was just kidding. I’m going back.”

She tried to get off the car in a panic.

But before she stretched her foot out, her

wrist was suddenly grabbed.

Then, she was pulled into warm arms.

Kerwin had the breath of mature men which

was mixed with the slight cigar smell. She

was wrapped up in his smell and felt secure.

“Thank you,” Betty whispered, and looked

up in Kerwin’s arms with bright eyes. “I’m

going back to work.”

Feeling the soft body in his arms, Kerwin put

on a smile. “Ok, I’ll wait for you at home.”

Betty nodded and got out of the car.

She didn‘t hurry back but just stood where she was and watched Kerwin‘s car leave.

The warmth of the lunch box in her arms reached her skin through her shirt.

It was just like… Kerwin‘s hug.

Recalling the hug, Betty seemed to smell Kerwin‘s scent. She couldn‘t help blushing.

That was enough.

Betty patted her face and hurried upstairs.

She didn‘t even notice that the depression that haunted her after she talked to Jeffrey had been dispell ed by Kerwin‘s arrival.

After a whole day and night of work, the samples of the magazine were finally delivered to the printers on time.

When Betty got home, she didn‘t even have the strength to talk to Kerwin. She threw herself into bed a nd slept for two days and two nights. When she woke up, the magazine

was on the market.

Their efforts were worth it. The exposure of the food processing factory really caused a sensation. Altho ugh the magazine didn‘t outsell Kerwin‘s magazine, it attracted enough attention and many advertisers.

In this way, their magazine finally survived the crisis.

Betty also felt glad. After all, she had worked for the magazine for two years and she had feelings for it. This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

The only fly in the ointment was that Lydia became incredibly proud as the news caused

a sensation.

But they were still in a good mood. Jeffrey, who had always been estranged, said that he would invite t hem to dinner.

They cheered and asked for a big dinner.

Sarah leaned to Belly excitedly. “Betty, you will go with us, right?”

Betty glanced at Jeffrey in the crowd and

shook her head. “No, I need to go back home. You guys have fun.”

Sarah was a little disappointed, but she knew that Jeffrey and Betty had an awkward relationship, so sh e had to nod in dismay.

Betty went to the lobby with the others, who were still talking about where to eat and have fun. Betty to ok the initiative to say, “Editor in chief, I have a family matter, so I can’t go with you guys. Sorry, I’m leaving.”

Jeffrey’s eyes flickered when he heard that,

but he still nodded.

The others looked at Jeffrey and Betty with a strange look. Jeffrey was here, so they didn’t

dare to talk much about this.

Betty ignored their gaze, turned around and

was about to leave.

But when she was about to leave the office

building, she bumped into someone.

“Ouch.” She staggered a few steps, looked up, and saw that it was a man in his early

thirties. He was dirty all over, with rough and dark skin.

Betty was stunned.

He didn‘t look like someone who worked in office buildings. Moreover, as a reporter, Betty noticed that t he man looked particularly flustered. He didn‘t apologize or stop after bumping into her, but just stumble d forward.

Betty had a premonition for no reason. She immediately turned around and saw the man taking someth ing out of his arms. It was shining silver.

Betty turned pale at the sight of the thing.

It was a dagger!

She was about to call security, but the man was running towards Jeffrey in the crowd.

She turned completely pale, ran to Jeffrey without hesitation and exclaimed, “Jeffrey! Look out!”

Betty shouted his name and screamed

subconsciously.

When Jeffrey heard Betty‘s voice, he was stunned. Turning around, he saw a thuggish man rushing tow

“Ah!”

Other people in their magazine also saw this man, and they scattered with screams.

The man‘s target was obviously Jeffrey. As the crowd dispersed, he immediately quickened his pace and rushed straight towards Jeffrey. He shouted with an accent, “Jeffrey! You son of a bitch! It‘s all your fault. I lost m

Jeffrey had been taken good care of since childhood. Even if he pretended to be poor back then, he only

Almost without thinking, Betty rushed

towards the man at full speed while

exclaiming.

They were not far apart. She soon caught up with him, grabbed the man’s arm and tried to stop him from

The man was rushing to Jeffrey madly and didn’t expect that he would be suddenly

grabbed by a woman. He staggered, turned

his head and saw Betty. He roared with a

more ferocious face, “Bitch! How dare you

stop me! Damn!”

With that, he shifted his attention to Betty

and stabbed her with the dagger in his hand!

Betty had been grabbing him, and she was forced to stagger as he turned around. Before she could stea

She was so pale with fear and had no time to

dodge.

Jeffrey’s face was drained of blood. He suddenly responded at the sight of this.

“Betty!” He roared and rushed to her immediately
