Clupter 14
“Joey, did you see his face?”
“What?”
“He’s the handsome communications expert I mentioned. Did you see what he looks like?”
Joey shook his head. “He said his face was burned and he didn’t want
to scare anyone.”
Upon hearing this. Cathy first opened her eyes wide in surprise, then sighed in disappointment.
“I thought he wore the mask to remain mysterious, but I didn’t expect it to be ugly!”
“Cathy, don’t say that.” Joey quickly stopped her, “He might have been injured in the war. We should respect him.”
Cathy stuck out her tongue and said nothing more.
Three days later, the fighting came to a temporary halt.
The rescue team did not rush to the next war zone, but stayed here to provide follow–up treatment for the wounded.
Joey finally noticed the “communications expert” who had been following her silently.
The man saved her life on the battlefield, and she took good care of him out of gratitude.
But as time went on, she felt more and more that something was
Wrong.
The man’s behavior and voice were all very similar to someone.
Joey thought he must be crazy.
Humphrey was already engaged to Willette, so how could he come to such a war–torn place?
Besides, he couldn’t find himself….
Not far away, Humphrey looked at Joey’s figure and slowly tightened his fingers.
He traveled thousands of miles to find this place, and the moment he saw Joey, his heart was filled with great joy.
But he resisted the urge to go forward, and instead put on a mask and interacted with her in another way, just because he was worried that his appearance would bring back bad memories for Jocy.
But now, she started hiding from herself again.
Did you discover something?
Humphrey has a complicated heart, but reality doesn’t give him the opportunity to think too much.
That night, the communications base was attacked again.
Humphrey, who was using a fake identity, was not required to participate in the repair work, but he applied to join for the first time, which made the person who matched the work break out in a cold.
sweat.
“Mr. Rhodes, the front line is very dangerous. You are just here for a show. There is no need to act so realistically!”
Humphrey glanced at him coldly, “Who said I was here to put on a show?”
He came to Joey with the idea of atonement.
Even if he died on the front line, it was his fate and the sin he had to pay for.
The matchmaker still failed to stop Humphrey
Worried that something might happen to Humphrey, he hurried to find Joey and wanted to tell her the true identity of Humphrey.
But before he found Humphrey, worrying news came from the communications base.
The communications personnel suffered heavy casualties, and three are still missing, including the communications expert wearing a mask!
Chapter 14
Joey rushed to the front line with the main force, looking anxiously through the ruins.
After an unknown amount of time, the man was finally found next to an abandoned truck.
The man was carried onto a stretcher, and after taking only two steps, the mask on his face fell off.
Cathy exclaimed: “Oh my god, so handsome!”
Joey bowed his head.
The moment she saw the man’s face clearly, her breathing stopped instantly!
Humphrey….
It’s really him!
At the same time, Humphrey on the stretcher opened his eyes.
Seeing Joey beside him, he grabbed her wrist without saying anything. his voice trembling with the feeling of having survived a disaster: “Joey, don’t go…”
Cathy opened her eyes wide, “You know each other?!”
Joey didn’t know how to explain it.
She struggled hard, but Humphrey’s hands were like shackles. embedded in her flesh and she couldn’t get rid of them.
The two returned to the camp in a strange posture.
Jocy wanted to leave, but Humphrey refused and left her alone to receive treatment.
In the end, even Cathy was helpless.
“Joey, just help him, because he is so handsome!”
”
Jocy was almost forced to stay.
She silently fetched the medical kit and said nothing while treating the wound.
Until Humphrey called her name, she suddenly became angry and pressed hard on his wound!
Humphrey gasped in pain!
Joey still felt unsatisfied.
She thought she had let it go a long time ago.
But when I see Humphrey‘ face, I can’t help but think of the past when he was nailed to the pillar of shame.
She trusted Humphrey so much, but how did Humphrey treat her?
He sent the video to humiliate her, had his brother torture her with pepper spray, and even watched the kidnappers die without helping her…
Why would such a person come back to find her?
Joey’s grip became increasingly forceful until Humphrey‘ forehead was
covered with beads of sweat due to the severe pain, and he finally let
- go.
“The wound has been bandaged, I’m leaving.”
Joey turned around without hesitation.
But Humphrey suddenly stood up, grabbed her wrist like crazy and pressed her down on the bed.
Joey was shocked, “Humphrey, what are you doing!”
Humphrey spoke in a restrained voice, unaware of the blood oozing from his wound. “Joey, come back with me. I have broken up with Willette. When we return to Oxyork, I will hold a grand wedding for you!”
Joey looked him straight in the eyes, his eyes cold and cold.
After a while, she murmured:
“What makes you think I’ll go back with you?”
“The Joey who once loved you deeply is dead. He was killed by your own hands.”
“Humphrey, if the same pain happened to you, would you choose to forgive?”
Humphrey shuddered.
He wanted to refute.
But when he thought back to what he had done to Joey in the past, he couldn’t utter a word.
Joey pried open Humphrey’s hand and said word by word, “Operation
Chapter 14
Dawn will take a long time. I will not leave, and you don’t need to waste time here.”
“Humphrey, I don’t like you anymore, and I don’t intend to continue to hate you. I just wish I had never met you.”
Humphrey was pushed away by Joey and staggered to the edge of the bed.
He struggled to get up, but groaned in pain from his injuries. He gritted his teeth and said, “I don’t ask for your forgiveness, but I won’t let you go. Now that I’ve found you, don’t even think about disappearing from my world!”
Joey didn’t even look at Humphrey, and turned and walked away.
She thought that after this incident, Humphrey would no longer bother her.
Unexpectedly, the next day, Joey was covered by his mouth and nose by several people on his way to the toilet and fainted on the spot!
When she woke up again, she was back in Oxyork.
