True Fated Marriage novel Chapter 2126

Lowell frowned, he stared at Claudia's ankle with a serious expression on his face.

He then said in a milder tone, "Try to move. Come on, let me help you."

Lowell reached out to grab her ankle as he spoke.

"Hey, don't touch it!" Claudia immediately shouted in a painful expression. "Don't touch it. I think I really broke my leg."

Lowell thought that Claudia's scream was too exaggerated. He frowned and did not let go of her ankle, 'I don't think that it is broken. You are a police. Can't you stand even this kind of pain?"

"What?" Claudia immediately protested, "Do you have sympathy or not? Am I supposed to go through pain just because I'm a police? How many people can bear such a pain?"

"The problem is that it is not broken," Lowell spoke in a deep voice.

As he spoke, he even shook Claudia's leg. Usually, when someone's legs were broken, they would be in so much pain that they would definitely scream out in pain if it was being moved like that.

However, Claudia was still able to argue, protest, and refute against him. It could be seen that it wasn't that serious.

Claudia was stunned. "You are not a doctor, and you are not an X-ray machine either. How could you be so sure that I didn't break it?"

"You should know clearly whether you broke it or not." Lowell stood up and looked down at her. "I know that you are just trying to buy time."

In order to give Kendrix and Sylvia half an hour, Claudia put on an act.

He lowered his head and showed no expression on his face.

Claudia twitched her lips in embarrassment, she realized that he had seen through her real intentions.

She stopped her acting and sat on the stairs. She looked up at Lowell and said, "How could you tell?"

"So, you're admitting to it now. You've been acting this whole time." Lowell retorted, "There is no such thing as a 'broken leg'".

"Oh, fine." Claudia nodded. "I did sprain my ankle, but I did not break it."

Even after hearing that, Lowell was still expressionless.

Claudia mumbled softly, "I thought that my acting is realistic enough. I did not expect you to see through my real intentions. How disappointing."

"I am not interested in acting with you," Lowell said in a low voice, "Let's go, it is time to go."

"However, I really haven't finished taking photos yet," Claudia said with a pitiful look, "Besides, we even agreed that we are here only for fun today. Look at the time, there is still a long time before lunch, are you going to go back on your words altogether? You said that you were going to treat my cousin to lunch."

"I won't go back on my words." Lowell's face was still expressionless. He went on, "Since we have already gotten what we want, then let's eat together at noon."

"It's still so early, yet you already want to go down," Claudia said, "I still want to eat here first."

"Let's go down the mountain and meet them at the parking lot first, we'll decide on where to go later," Lowell said.

Claudia pursed her lips. After some time, she stood up and walked down the stairs. However, she gasped.

Lowell frowned, it seemed like he wanted to say something.

Claudia immediately said, "I am not pretending this time. I really sprained my ankle. It hurts a little, but it's all right."

Regardless, the man from The Jones family just did not know how to care about a woman at all.

After that, Claudia stopped acting in front of him.

Lowell remained silent for a few seconds. He looked at how Claudia was walking, she was indeed limping.

It seemed that she really did sprain her ankle, but it was not as serious as she pretended it to be. However, it still affected her walking.

"Do you need me to support you?" Lowell asked.

"What?" Claudia was stunned. She did not expect Lowell to be so kind to her. However, she shook her head at once and said, "There's no need for that, I can walk by myself."

Just like that, she hobbled down the mountain with Lowell. The two of them did not walk fast, and Lowell continued walking in Claudia's speed.

By the time they walked down the mountain road, half an hour had passed. Almost 40 minutes later, they arrived at the parking lot.

Kendrix and Sylvia had been staying in the car, engine turned on, throughout the whole period in silence. They had been sitting there for nearly 40 minutes.

When Lowell and Claudia showed up, Kendrix immediately saw them.

"Claudia and Lowell are back," Kendrix said.

"What?" Sylvia froze and asked, "Where?"
