Chapter 687: 364 What did you do with him yesterday? _3

Beckett Wright walked up to her and gently comforted her, "Avery Jane, don’t be afraid. It should be the doctor who has arrived. I asked him to come and check on you again this morning."

After speaking, he got up and went to open the door.

But something seemed off.

Avery Jane keenly felt danger approaching her. He was very close to her, and through that door, she could almost smell his powerful aura—a kind of mature man’s danger that was like poison but emitted a tempting desire...

The door was opened, and Avery Jane glanced nervously, breathing a sigh of relief. The doctor in a white shirt was holding a medical kit; it really was just the doctor.

Was she overreacting? But she clearly felt that oppressive feeling, as if he was already very close to her.

After the doctor came in, Beckett Wright was closing the door when suddenly a large hand pressed against it, and the door was pushed open.

The man standing outside almost scared Avery Jane out of her wits.

Joshua Hughes was like a terrifying poison to her, always corroding her heart, making her desperate, empty, and numb.

The past few days felt like a century to her.

What she endured was not just physical, but also mental pain. The thought of escaping from him constantly tore at her heart like a saw, painful and bloody.

Beckett Wright noticeably felt a chill wrap around him the moment the door was pushed open, making him shiver involuntarily.

Joshua Hughes stood at the door, one hand pushing the door, the other clenched into a fist.

His tall and muscular figure exuded coldness, and the intense and icy aura emanating from him swept through the entire space, causing the heated room temperature to drop by several degrees instantly.

Indeed, she was in this man’s room, his sharp gaze slicing through the woman trembling on the sofa like a knife, and his clenched hand slowly tightened.

How did he find her here?

He had warned her not to get entangled with men, yet she spent the night with Beckett Wright. Now, even if she jumped into the Nile River, she couldn’t clear herself—how could this proud man listen to her explanation?

Avery Jane didn’t even dare to look Joshua Hughes in the eye. It wasn’t that she felt guilty; it was just that this man was so unreasonable that she couldn’t communicate with him.

"Avery Jane, come here." Joshua Hughes finally spoke, his voice as cold as coming from a distant glacier, making people shiver uncontrollably.

"Mr. Hughes, Avery Jane is ill, and I have called a doctor." Beckett Wright stood in front of Joshua Hughes because he clearly saw Avery Jane’s fear.

Avery Jane was trembling with fear, and although she didn’t cry, he could almost hear her stifled sobs hidden in her heart, pathetic and sorrowful like a little beast about to be slaughtered.

"Beckett?"

Joshua Hughes glanced at the man in white in front of him, this was probably the type Avery Jane liked, lukewarm and sluggish.

What kind of taste does she have in men? Is she blind?

"Move aside."

Joshua Hughes didn’t want to say more, he pushed aside the person blocking in front of him.

Beckett Wright was also tall, but with such a fierce push, he staggered back two steps. The doctor looked at the two people inside, stunned, uncertain if he should continue with the examination for yesterday’s patient.

"Avery Jane, come here, or you won’t be able to bear the consequences." Joshua Hughes curled his lips coldly, his patience had reached its limit.

It had only been one night, yet she seemed much more haggard, was she really ill?

After such intense movement in the car yesterday, she sweat a lot, and then dressed so thinly, maybe she really got sick.

So he didn’t want to do anything to her for now, the priority was to take her home, he couldn’t bear to see her stay in another man’s room for even a moment.

"Mr. Hughes, please don’t treat a girl like this." Beckett Wright guarded Avery Jane, if she didn’t want to leave today, he would die before letting Joshua Hughes take her away. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

Joshua Hughes let out a faint smile, his cold voice rising around him, "She’s my woman, shouldn’t she come with me?"

A single sentence instantly shattered Avery Jane’s numb and icy heart, leaving it bloody and painful beyond restraint.

His woman, yet she didn’t want any of this at all.

Joshua Hughes calmly observed the changes in Beckett Wright’s face, like an outsider watching the drama.

He was curious to see what reason Beckett Wright would use to keep Avery Jane, someone who belonged to another.

This sentence was like a heavy bomb, leaving Beckett Wright stunned, realizing that the person Avery Jane said she couldn’t escape from was Joshua Hughes.
