Chapter 290

Ethan Sullivan gripped Susan Thompson's wrist tightly, glaring sharply at Andrew Lucas.

"Andrew, cut the fake act!"

Andrew repeated expressionlessly, "I'm treating her wound."

"Not needed!" Ethan sneered. "Susan's affairs are none of your concern!"

"You'd rather watch her bleed?" Andrew scoffed. "Ethan, are you seriously this childish?"

Ethan fell silent. He looked down at Susan's bleeding wrist, his brow furrowed.

"My car has my mother's special medication," Andrew said coolly. "A hundred times better than pharmacy drugs."

Ethan clenched his teeth. He knew Victoria Lucas's medical skills well. For Susan's sake, he had to relent.

As he hesitated, Andrew suddenly yanked Susan into his arms. The elevator doors opened just then, and he carried her inside.

"Let me go!" Susan struggled desperately.

"Susan!" Ethan rushed forward but only saw the closing elevator doors.

Andrew shoved Susan into the backseat. She immediately reached for the door handle.

"Stay still!" he barked.

"I don't need your fake kindness!" She pushed him hard.

Andrew pinned her beneath him, his voice dangerous. "Keep moving, and I won't mind taking you right here."

Susan froze. She knew this man's vile nature too well and stopped resisting.

Andrew grabbed the first-aid kit and roughly seized her wrist. But as he unwrapped the bandage, his fingers trembled slightly.

Two gruesome scars came into view—one old, the other still bleeding.

"Does it hurt?" The question slipped out before he could stop himself. His face immediately hardened. "Susan, don't misunderstand. I'm saving you only because I don't want you to die too easily."

"I know," Susan said calmly.

Those three light words made Andrew's chest tighten. He applied the medicine roughly. "A vicious woman like you deserves to suffer!"

"Andrew!" Susan suddenly looked up. "Insult me all you want, but don't you dare insult Daniel!"

"That crippled brat?" Andrew sneered. "Is he worthy of inheriting the Lucas family?"

"You bastard!" Fury burned in Susan's eyes. "Daniel's leg will heal! And you're the one who caused all this!"

Her lips curled mockingly. "Oh, I heard you and Nicole Capra have been partying every night? Reeks of piss. Disgusting."

"Susan!" Andrew roared, grabbing her chin.

Susan broke free and ran, but he dragged her back and slammed her against a pillar. He crushed his lips against hers, his voice hoarse.

"Let me make sure you smell exactly what's on me."
