Rebirth: Top Actress, Your Big Shot Husband is Jealous Again!-Chapter 889: Joanna Ramsey, Are You Angry Because You’re Embarrassed? Don’t Tell Me You Like Me?
...
Joanna Ramsey didn’t know why she ran when she saw Victor Bennett.
Anyway, her first reaction was to run.
She had said she didn’t want to see him again, but now she was the one who showed up. What was that supposed to mean?
"Joanna Ramsey, stop where you are!"
Behind her came Victor Bennett’s exasperated voice.
Hearing his voice, Joanna ran even faster.
Panic-stricken, she ran straight into the stairwell.
Victor Bennett followed her in.
Joanna rushed downstairs quickly, but how could she be faster than Victor Bennett?
His long legs quickly caught up with her.
Victor Bennett grabbed her arm and pinned her against the wall, staring at her angrily.
"Joanna, what’s wrong with you, running like that?"
Victor Bennett was furious. This girl just took off when she saw him. What did that mean?
Was he so unbearable to look at?
Joanna, panting from the run, stared at Victor Bennett.
"What’s wrong with you, why are you chasing me?"
Joanna glared back at him.
Victor Bennett laughed in anger, "Joanna, you still haven’t explained what you meant during that phone call. What do you mean, huh?"
Fiona Grantham said she might have a boyfriend now, but Victor Bennett instinctively didn’t want to believe that. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂
How could she possibly have a boyfriend?
"I didn’t mean anything, just that we shouldn’t meet again."
Joanna looked away as she said this.
"Ha, you say we shouldn’t meet, and why should I listen to you? Besides, you told me not to find you, yet here you are in front of me. What do you mean? Joanna, could it be you missed me and that’s why you appeared in front of me on purpose?"
Victor Bennett said with a smile, with a bit of a teasing tone.
Joanna’s face immediately turned red, and she angrily glared at him.
"Stop talking nonsense, I’m here to see Bella, not you."
"You’re just making excuses for yourself. If you didn’t miss me, why did you run when you saw me? Isn’t it just to make me chase you out?"
"You!"
Joanna was infuriated by his shameless words.
"You’re shameless!"
"Joanna, you’re just angry out of embarrassment. Do you like me?"
Victor Bennett suddenly asked.
He had said it instinctively to tease her, to refute her.
But once the words were out, the air suddenly became still.
The stairwell suddenly became quiet.
It was so quiet they could only hear each other’s breathing, nothing else.
Victor Bennett’s heart suddenly beat a little faster, even though he had asked the question casually.
But at this moment, he unexpectedly found himself anticipating Joanna’s answer.
Even he didn’t know what he was expecting.
Joanna stared at him with wide eyes, forgetting to react, even forgetting to breathe.
Why would he ask her this question?
Like him?
Joanna asked herself in her heart.
Yet she found that not only could she not give Victor Bennett an answer, she couldn’t even give herself one...
The two of them just stood there, neither speaking.
Even though no one was talking, neither of them was willing to break the silence.
"Click..."
The door to the stairwell was pushed open.
The two of them instinctively looked over.
Joanna’s body instantly tensed up.
The cold wall behind her seemed to penetrate through her clothes and into her body, making her feel completely frozen as she looked at the man in the white coat at the door.
Victor Bennett didn’t expect Richard Shaw to suddenly appear either.
He awkwardly lowered his hand that was resting on the wall.
