Winson grunted in pain as his body slammed against the ground.
At that moment, Gwen was walking out of the pharmacy with some alcohol pads, sanitizer, and bandages, so she saw how Winson was flung to the ground by the man dressed in black.
Shocked, she quickly rushed over. "Winson!"
"Gwen…" Winson used his hand to support his back when Gwen helped him to get up. He said weakly, "Do you even know this guy? He's so fierce…"
Gwen bit her lip and looked at the man dressed in black. "I…"
She wanted to say she knew him, but she remembered what Luna and Joshua told her.
Gritting her teeth, she answered, "I don't know him."
"You don't know him…" Winson glanced at the man dressed in black in disdain.
Although this man did not have the same motive as him, they were both here because of Gwen. He, however, was much closer to Gwen.
The first one to arrive normally had the advantage of being in a favored position. He and Gwen had known each other since they were in high school, and Gwen had said she did not know this man at all.
He straightened his back and said, "Gwennie."
He called Gwen by her nickname on purpose. "I was expressing my gratitude to this man here just now. I also told him that you and I are very close with each other and that we had known each other since high school. Without so much of a warning, he threw me to the ground!"
Winson continued after a sigh, "If you didn't arrive here just in time, god knows what he would've done. I was just telling him the truth, but he hurt me…"
Gwen's eyebrows furrowed as she looked at both Winson and the man dressed in black helplessly. Although she did not know if Winson was telling the truth, she was aware the man dressed in black would not harm her.
