Chapter 2988


    “Yes.” The man dressed in ck paused for a moment when he heard the delight in her voice, then


    nced at her and nodded. “Are you hurt?” “No.” Gwen shook her head. ’How about you?”


    She scrutinized his right arm, which was wrapped with gauze, and furrowed her eyebrows. “Are you


    okay?”


    “I’m okay.” The man turned to nce at Winson, whose wrist he was holding. “How did you im that


    you know her?”


    At this point, Winson was in so much pain that his entire face had turned pale, and he could not utter a


    single word apart from vague whimpers of pain.


    “He imed to be thisdy’s boyfriend,” one of the passersby piped up. “We thought he was harassing


    her, but he imed to be her boyfriend…and thisdy also referred to him by his name, so we


    assumed that they knew each other.”


    The other passersby agreed. “Yes, we thought something fishy was going on, and we were wondering


    whether he was telling the truth… After all, you never know what goes on in other people’s lives.”


    “Yes, I thought this man looked a little aggressive, but I never once imagined he’d be lying!”


    “Thank God you’re here. Otherwise, who knows what could’ve happened…”


    A split secondter, one of the passersby finally asked, “Miss, do you actually know this man who


    ims to be your boyfriend?”


    “We used to be ssmates.” Gwen sneered as she cast Winson a cold look. “But from now on, we’re


    nothing more than strangers.’


    People like him did not deserve to remain in contact with her, much less be a friend of hers!


    “Gwen…” Winson bit his lip as a distraught look crossed his face. “It’s no big deal; do you really have


    to-ahh!”


    Before he could even finish his sentence, the man had bent his wrist again at a crude angle, and this


    time, he could clearly hear the sound of his bone snapping.


    The man shot him a cold nce. “You deceived everyone by wrongfully iming to be her boyfriend;


    do you think this isn’t a big deal? What would you have done to her if I hadn’t shown up just in time?


    How dare you harass her like this in public? If this is what you’re capable of doing in broad daylight,


    who knows what you’d get up to when no one is around?”


    Winson slumped onto the ground limply and began to howl in pain. “You assaulted me! I’m going to call


    the cops on you! Just wait!”


    As he said this, he took out his phone and dialed 911. “Hello, yes, I want to report a case of assault…”


    Seeing that Winson was already calling the cops, Gwen immediately lunged forward and kicked his


    phone out of his hand, sending it ttering onto the ground.


    “Run!” The moment the phonended on the ground, Gwen grabbed hold of the man’s hand and


    sprinted out of the door.

    If Winson really called the cops on them, not only would they be ckmailed by Winson, but they would


    have to be subject to police interrogation.


    Since none of them were locals, it would be a hassle should the police get involved.


    Most importantly, however…once they arrived at the police station, the man in ck would be forced to


    reveal himself, and Gwen could not bear to see him be subject to such cruelty, especially in front of


    Winson.


    The man was dragged out of the art show by Gwen, and he could not help smiling as he gazed at the


    tendrils of her hair being blown softly in the breeze.


    She was as adorable as he remembered.
