Chapter 270

He wouldn't blame her for falling in love with someone else.

Despite his high fever and almost contorted body due to pain, Steven staggered toward the school gate that day.

He had to ensure his girl entered the school.

"This necklace is worth something , right ?'' However , a group of ruffians robbed her, They took money from her bag and snatched the necklace from her neck.

Stephanie cried and pleaded for them to return the necklace. "My mom gave me that."

Furious, Steven charged at them, but the thugs escaped on their motorcycles.

He watched her crying while collecting her books from the ground.

"Don't cry, Stephie... Don't cry." He longed to comfort her.

Still, he couldn't bring himself to do it.

Finally, he couldn't resist and hobbled over to help her pick up her books.

However, his gruesomely bloodied hands scared her.

Numbly, he watched his beloved girl run away in terror.

Powerless and panicked, he hid his hands behind his back and wanted to say something. Still, he ran off instead.

That day, he found those thugs.

Despite his fever and unhealed wounds, he managed to fight them and retrieve her necklace and money.

But how was he a match for so many people? He would feel pain too. If he hadn't been desperate enough to grit his teeth and punch as if he wanted to kill the lead punk, how would those people have given him her stuff back?

"Pfft!" Finally , he couldn't hold on and spit out blood. He held the necklace and fainted on the concrete floor filled with blood.

It was cold.

Gazing at the gray sky, he murmured, "Stephie... It's so cold."

Outside the school.

Stephanie left cautiously, Stephanie looked around cautiously after school.

She was afraid the punks would haunt her.

She was trying to avoid them.

But as soon as she got out of school she smelled the strong scent of blood.

She looked up in fear and bumped into Steven's deep eyes.

Perhaps to avoid scaring her, Steven had put on gloves before slipping her the necklace and money. Then, he hurriedly walked off.

Stephanie wanted to say something but didn't in the end.
