However, to my surprise, this time Joanna still shook her head and refused, "Liam, stop it. I'm really tired. Let's go another day."
"Alright then..."
Liam frowned, looking very unhappy, and kept looking back as he walked away.
But Joanna didn't change her mind.
As soon as I got in the car, Joanna said, "I didn't invite Liam; we just ran into each other..."
Weird.
In the past, Joanna never explained to me. When I asked, she would accuse me of making trouble.
Why was she explaining now?
But I didn't care to listen or even bother. I closed my eyes and went to sleep.
Whatever Joanna said had nothing to do with me.
I didn't know how long had passed when I felt someone gently pushing me and softly calling my name.
It was Joanna's voice.
I thought I was dreaming, but when I opened my eyes and gradually became conscious, I saw Joanna smiling gently at me.
"We're home."
"Go to bed."
Joanna said.
I hadn't felt such a gentle expression from her in a long time.
But I didn't care anymore.
"No, I still have things to do."
I shook my head and went straight to the study to start designing the game character poster.
After a while, Joanna brought a cup of warm milk into the study and placed it on the table, saying, "Drinking milk at night is good for your health."
I used to say the same thing and poured a cup of milk for Joanna every night.
Until one day, she was on the sofa playing games with Liam online, and accidentally knocked over the milk, affecting her performance.
So she threw the cup at my feet and scolded me harshly, then turned around and chatted softly with Liam.
Since then, I never poured her milk again.
Buzz buzz!
At this moment, Joanna's phone vibrated; it was a call from Liam.
"Joanna, I fell and twisted my ankle."
Liam said.
"Is it serious?"
Joanna asked anxiously.
"I don't know... Can you take me to the hospital?"
Liam asked with a sob.
"Okay."
After hanging up, Joanna said to me, "Liam..."
"It's okay, you can go."
I interrupted.
Joanna was stunned for several seconds before continuing, "I'll be back after I take him to the hospital."
After saying that, Joanna turned and left.
In my opinion, Liam was just playing the victim again, his usual tactic.
I remembered that before, when Liam had a runny nose, Joanna took care of him for most of the day.
At that time, I was almost driven mad with anger.
