I'm Sorry, But I Love You novel Chapter 63

Anderson strode over. Looking at Johanna’s tearful face, he asked nervously, “What happened? Who bullied you?”

“It was... Catherine... and Ms. Aurora Adams.”

Johanna cried so hard that she couldn't catch her breath. She looked like a child who had suffered a lot of grievances and met her family.

She pounced at Anderson, and the latter took a half step back subconsciously.

He reached out and helped Johanna up. “Please don’t cry. Come in and tidy yourself. Tell me what happened.”

Johanna nodded while sobbing, following Anderson into the villa.

“I went shopping today and met Miss Johnson. I truly like her appearance, so I talked to her. She just asked me to get out.” While she spoke, Johanna carefully studied Anderson’s expression.

“She was quite rude to me, so I asked her if I’ve done anything to offend her. Then Miss Johnson started to humiliate me for my appearance, calling me ugly... Then she also called Ms. Adams. Since that store is invested by Ms. Adams, she asked her bodyguard to send me away.”

Anderson handed a piece of tissue to her. When he heard that Catherine humiliated Johanna for her appearance, his eyes turned cold completely.

Johanna wiped off her tears. With reddened eyes, she asked, “I know I’m not so good-looking as her, but I’m not that ugly as she said, am I? Why did she attack me with her friend?”

“Don’t worry. I...” Anderson wanted to tell her that he would deal with Catherine for her.

Just before Anderson could finish his words, a clear voice sounded from the stairs.

“My mommy isn’t that kind of person.”

Anderson frowned. “Why did you come downstairs?”

Lincoln didn’t answer him. Walking to them, he stood beside the sofa and looked at Johanna who had reddened eyes. He said, “Miss, if you want to marry Mr. Clark, you don’t need to step on my mommy.”

Meeting Lincoln’s crystal clear eyes, Johanna was stiffened. She felt that this kid had seen through her already.

She believed that it must be an illusion. This kid looked so young.

Johanna shook her head. Looking at Anderson fearfully, she hurriedly explained, “No, I didn’t. You can ask someone to look into it. All the customers in the store had witnessed that she asked me to get out.”

Anderson’s gaze fell on Lincoln. “Go back to your room. Stop minding the adults’ business.”

Lincoln closed his eyes, his long thick eyelashes covering his eyes.

After a moment, he raised his head and looked into Anderson’s eyes. “One day you’ll regret it.”

Finishing his words, Lincoln turned around and left.

If someone were with him right now, it could be seen that this boy’s eyes were reddened.

His father had never trusted his mother, and nor had he ever cared how his children felt.

However, Lincoln comforted himself that he had grown up and it was all right for him to have no father’s love...

After Lincoln was gone, Anderson stared at Johanna.

His eyes were slightly cold.

Anderson had never stared at her in such a way, so Johanna was quite uneasy, wondering if he was suspecting that she lied.

She forced a smile and said gently, “Anderson, I came to complain to you not because I have an evil intention to Catherine. I just felt so wronged. After all, I truly like Catherine. Since I was humiliated by someone I like, I felt quite sad.

“It’s my fault. I shouldn’t have told you those matters.” As she spoke, Johanna burst into tears again.

Looking at her face that looked almost the same as Isabelle’s, Anderson recalled that her age was the same as Isabella’s when the latter passed away. Back then, Isabelle used to cry, laugh, and played at being cute to him.
