Chapter 139

"What's wrong with your face? What happened, Miss Ross?" Henry asked with gentleness in his voice.

His deep yet soothing voice was like a rain blessing Erin's dry heart. She felt so relieved and wanted to seek his protection since she got beaten by her sister last night.

Thus, Erin tried her best to squeeze her tears and then pointed at her sister, "It's her, Mr. Grant. She assaulted me last night! She slapped me so hard, and then kicked me until I became like this!"

Everyone was surprised by her statement, and Kate was no exception. 

She was surprised because she thought Erin would report everything when she was alone with Henry, but Kate had overestimated Erin this time. 

Of course, that bimbo wouldn't even wait a minute to report everything to her white knight in shining armor. 

Henry glanced at Kate, who was also caught off guard. They seemed to have the same idea in mind, so he improvised, "Really? Mrs. Woods did this to you?"
