A — pril Jones gently pushed April Jones away as she hugged her bag and looked at Elizabeth Jones worriedly.
However, Elizabeth Jones used her eyes to tell her to stop worrying about her and quickly leave.
April Jones had no choice but to flee in panic. Just that, when she just reached the elevator door, she heard the sound of someone slamming on the door. Her heart stuck, and a bad premonition struck her heart once again.
It's over. Will this really affect their relationship?
After the door closed, Elizabeth Jones's heart instantly sunk. She nervously held her hands, not daring to raise her head to look at the furious Joshua Wayne.
But even if she didn't care, she could feel that the air around her had become so cold that it was hard to breathe.
"I'm sorry!" Elizabeth Jones bit her lower lip and apologized with a trembling voice.
Joshua Wayne suddenly extended his hands and fiercely pinched her chin, he did not like her lowering her head to talk to him like that, she really did not put him in her eyes at all. He wanted to force her to look at him in the eyes and say it, even if it was just apologizing, he had to speak sincerely.
Elizabeth Jones's snow - white chin was pinched by him, causing it to hurt, and she didn't dare to resist anymore, so she could only directly meet his gaze.
However, the moment when they touched, panic arose in her heart. She felt that this time, even deities would not be able to save their fragile relationship that was like water and fire.
"I'm sorry, I didn't tell you my aunt's whereabouts in time. I won't explain anything else." Elizabeth Jones realized that the reason why Joshua Wayne didn't like listening to her explanation and apologizing.
Are they enemies?
Joshua Wayne stared at her eyes, which were filled with tears. Those misty eyes contained pain and sadness, but gave off a pitiful feeling.
"Did your words get eaten by a dog when you promised me?" Joshua Wayne asked angrily.

However, this lesson had made her remember one thing. In the future, she would not easily agree to things that others that she could not do. If she suffered, others would be very disappointed as well.
"Have a look at by yourself. My aunt is not living a peaceful life. She also lives in fear every day. How can I bear to hurt her again?" Elizabeth Jones also had her own pain, so she could only answer him truthfully.
Joshua Wayne scoffed, "But back then, when she planned to frame my father, she wasn't like that. She even dared to kill people, so how could she be afraid of living a life that was filled with fear?"
"She didn't kill him. She already explained it, she just let your father drink!" Elizabeth Jones retorted in a low voice.
"Based on her words alone? You want me to believe she's innocent, innocent? " Joshua Wayne's mind was clouded by anger, why would he listen to her pale explanation?
Elizabeth Jones bit her lips, and could only stop talking. Perhaps, what she said was wrong, since in his heart, she already had zero trust level.
"Why are you April Jones's niece? If you had nothing to do with her, how good would that be? " Joshua Wayne suddenly roared angrily, as though he had been enduring it for a long time, and lost control of herself.
Being forcefully let go by him, Elizabeth Jones, she was caught off guard and fell onto the sofa at the side. Looking at the man's crimson eyes, she trembled in fear.
In the end, he still said it out loud. He definitely cared about her identity.
Even though they had concealed it well previously, The two pretended not to poke the hole covered by the fragile window paper.
They felt like they could forget each other's identities and stay together. The two were deceiving themselves, but behind that beautiful scene, there were still mottled scars.
