Bryan Hawkins suddenly looked depressed, as certain thoughts crossed his mind.
Seeing him in that state, Carolline Ruiz felt guilty, thinking she had really pinched him too hard. In fact, she had quite a bit of strength, at least strong among girls. Back in primary school, she once made a fellow student cry while arm wrestling.
Thinking about this, Carolline felt regret and upset. How could she show such a barbaric side in front of him? So she smiled apologetically, "I'm sorry, did I hurt you? Do you want me to call a doctor?"
"No need, just leave. I want some time to myself," Bryan responded coldly and distantly.
"..." Carolline stared at him, unsure how to react. Finally, she tried explaining, "I didn't do it on purpose. You were the one who asked me to grip harder."
She had followed his instructions, so why was he angry now?
"I know. I'm not mad. Go ahead and do what you need to," Bryan said calmly. "By the way, didn't you say you'd bring my girlfriend here? Where is she?"
