Like your face

As soon as I thought of the scene of Carroll beating him yesterday, my hand, which was taking out my phone, stopped. Wasn't self-defense considered as an intentional injury? When I was not sure, I really didn't dare to act rashly. Seeing me leaning against the wall in fear, Peter came over and said, "You are scared by my few words. You're like a mouse. Why does Carroll like you?" He began to look at my face again. "Oh, I like your face. I didn't expect Carroll to like a good-looking woman." I felt uncomfortable being stared at by him, so I took a small step and wanted to escape. "No, Kelly, why do you always run away when you see me? Do I eat people?" Peter was standing at the door of my ward, blocking my way. Looking at his pervert face, I pursed my lips and said, "Yes." "Huh?" While he was not paying attention, I raised my left hand and poked the part where he was injured by the hairpin yesterday. "F*ck!" Peter shrank his body in pain. I seized the right time and got into the ward. I closed the door and locked it. My movements were smooth. "Kelly, if you have the guts, don't come out!" Peter shouted at the door. Looking out through the peeping hole, I felt lucky that I had survived a disaster. Rose came out of the bathroom with a rag in her hand, confused. "Young Madam, why did I hear someone call you?" Bang! Peter kicked the door hard. "Come out." "No. You're a bad guy. You're a perverted killer. I don't want to go out." After confirming the safety of the door, I talked back. "Wait for me. I'll call the police. Wait for the police to arrest you!" As I spoke, I took out my phone. "Haha, just do it! Everyone in the world knows about Carroll's fake death. Let's see if you dare to do so!" Peter simply leaned against the door. Hearing that, I stopped pressing the numbers. I couldn't call the police. Carroll was faking his death. "What's wrong? Are you scared?" "Anyway, you are a perverted murderer. Just wait, someone will catch you sooner or later!" After I said that, I moved back to the bed, pressed my whole body on the goose, and covered my head with a pillow, trying to isolate the voice of the pervert. "Kelly, I seriously suspect that you didn't go to school. Oh, no, you know nothing about the law. Anyway, you're uncultured." Peter lost his previous arrogance. "My wound hurts. I don't want to argue with you." It was quiet outside the door, but I was in a panic. Peter was right. I knew nothing about the law. In this era where everyone graduated from college, I graduated from junior high school, so I was no different from being illiterate. In this world, there were too many things that I had never seen before. Even when I took a shower in the Bamboo Pavilion for the first time, I studied for half an hour before I released hot water. I didn't know all kinds of desserts, either. I don't know anything about this world, as if I broke in from another time and space. Every person acted as if they saw a creature from another continent when they saw me. They were full of curiosity and scrutiny. They had more contempt. The most important reason why I agreed to marry the dead was that I left Phoenix Village and gave myself a chance to study. For the whole afternoon, I was searching for the adult college entrance examination. For someone like me who didn't graduate from high school, I had to take part in a tutoring class. The tuition fee was 30,000 dollars. ... Why was it the same as my deposit? My heart ached when I thought of the 30,000 dollars I had hidden in my cloakroom in the Bamboo Pavilion. I thought that I had a huge sum of money, but I didn't expect that it would only be enough for me to sign up for the tutoring class. The tutoring class lasted for three months, and in three months, I would participate in a unified adult college entrance examination. I would have to earn enough tuition fees in three months. However, I had an ID card. I could choose a lot of jobs. I didn't have to work part-time as someone who didn't have an ID card and earn little money. Everything seemed to be fine. With a smile on my face, I sat on a rocking chair on the balcony. The sky was azure and there were birds flying over. Old Madame Brown? I went back to the ward in a panic and let Rose close all the doors and windows. Why was this old woman targeting me? I was almost crippled. Why did she still come over to catch me? I squatted at the door and whispered to Rose, "We won't make a sound when Old Madame Brown comes. She'll think that there's no one in the ward." "She doesn't know that Mr. Carroll is still alive. How could she come here?" Rose frowned and didn't understand. However, Old Madame Brown didn't come looking for me. She took a group of people with her cane and rushed into the ward opposite me. "Peter, where did you hide my granddaughter-in-law? You little b*stard, you even dared to steal the wife of a dead man. How long hasn't your grandfather taught you a lesson? "Aren't you afraid of bringing your grandfather disaster? You're such a bad guy." What the hell? She was just like a widow cursing at the entrance of our village. I was so shocked that my mouth was wide open. I stood up bravely and looked out of the peeping hole. Kendra stood at the door of the ward, with one hand on her waist and the other on her crutch. She shouted at Peter, who was lying on the bed. Peter covered his wound and sat up with the help of the person next to him. "Old Madame Brow, you should be more reasonable. Your granddaughter-in-law has been rescued by Carroll's people. She lives in the opposite ward." Peter didn't mention that Carroll was still alive. This made me a little surprised. However, I could sense that he was very helpless in front of Kendra. Old Madame Brown, who was in her 80s, couldn't be beaten or scolded. She stood there like a plague. Who wouldn't be afraid of her? "The opposite side?" Kendra came over and smashed my ward a few times. Seeing that no one answered, she pulled a nurse over and asked, "Where is the person in this room?" "Old Madame, this is Mr. Carroll's private ward. Since Mr. Carroll is dead, who would be able to live in this ward?" The nurse explained patiently. In the ward, I let out a long sigh of relief. Everyone in the courtyard saw the living Mr. Carroll, but no one leaked a little bit of information to Kendra. It was interesting. Kendra returned to Peter's ward. "Brat, how dare you lie to me. Just wait and see. I'll talk to your grandfather right now. The Garcia clan actually bullies a widow." "Madam, it's almost time." Joey helped Kendra who was exasperated and said, "Let's go and find Peter's grandfather." "Hey? Why are you looking for my grandfather?" Peter struggled to get up from the hospital bed. He wanted to stop Kendra but was stopped by the bodyguards brought by Kendra. After Kendra and the others left, Peter immediately ran over and slammed my door. "Kelly, I know you're inside. Don't pretend to be a coward. Look at the old shrew. Hurry up and show up, or she'll go to find my grandfather." I chuckled and said, "Aren't you afraid of nothing? I didn't expect you to be afraid of your grandfather. Later, I'll ask Mr. Carroll for your grandfather's contact information. If you bully me again, I'll call your grandfather."
