Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl romance Capítulo 1489

Darius stumbled and then collapsed to the ground with a thud. His wound was deep, and blood was gushing out. He felt like he was losing consciousness but couldn't fall because Joelle was still by his side.

Seeing Darius weak, the men were about to move forward, but Joelle suddenly grabbed the dagger from the scarred man's hand and waved it around. "Don't come any closer. If anyone dares to do anything, I'll take them down with me!"

Watching Darius nearly fainting behind her, Joelle was determined to protect him, no matter how scared she was.

"She's crazy!" Seeing Joelle wildly waving the knife, they dared not approach Darius for the moment.

Suddenly, the sound of sirens came, scaring the group of men away. Joelle finally breathed a sigh of relief, and the knife in her hand fell to the ground.

Joelle crouched and gently picked Darius up into her arms, tears still lingering on her cheeks. "It's okay, Dar. We're safe now..."

Darius raised his hand to wipe her tears, then passed out.

When Darius woke up again, he saw Joelle lying peacefully asleep by his bed. He didn't want to wake her up, so he just watched her face, feeling like he couldn't get enough of her.

After a while, Joelle slowly opened her eyes with a soft whimper and looked at the gentle figure before her. She shed tears and smiled. "You're finally awake, Darius. You have no idea how worried I've been."

"Come on, you're all grown up now, yet you cry every single day."

Joelle was furious to see how carefree Darius was. "Do you know how serious your leg injury is? If the ambulance hadn't arrived early, your leg might have been gone!"
