My sudden appearance made Eason startled. He was about to lose his temper, but when he saw Hendrix behind me, he was frightened. He knelt immediately on the ground and looked at me. "Mrs. Roberts is right. It's all my fault. I won't do it again!" he said.
A leopard cannot change its spots. Looking at Jessica, I couldn't help but feel a little sad. What made her fall for such a scumbag?
I looked at her and said, "Leave him. Such an a*s doesn't deserve you."
I knew that words might be useless, but I still said it. Jessica looked at me and was stunned. She didn't look as charming as she did in the room just now. At this time, she looked haggard, with an expression of surprise on her face. She said to me after a moment's pause, "Thank you!"
I shook my head and said calmly, "You're welcome, I just can't bear seeing a man bully a woman!"
Hendrix pursed his lips and looked at me. "Let's go!" he said.
I got up and left with Hendrix. After a while, I couldn't help but look back at Jessica. As I went down the stairs, I couldn't help sighing.
Hendrix held me and his expression softened a little. He smiled and said, "Everyone has their own way of living. If you care too much about everyone and everything, you will be exhausted!"
I gave him a sideways glance and curled my lips. "Are you saying that I shouldn't meddle in other people's business?" I asked.
He smiled, raised his hand to rub his nose and replied, "No, that's not what I meant!"
I snorted and didn't talk to him. The ship was docked. Hendrix and I disembarked. We saw Evan waiting outside the port. I was surprised and said, "Evan, when did you arrive?"
