Chapter 1068 Let Me Take Care Of You (2/2)

Sean frowned but bitterly allowed her to drive the spoon into his mouth. ”You don't have to take care of me. Carl is just outside. He'll do it, and you can leave.”

”Why are you crying?” he asked. The last thing he wanted was to see her in pain.

She blurted out, resting her head on his good shoulder.

Sally was willing to sacrifice anything so he could live a safe and happy life.

But now that he was badly hurt, she couldn't bear to leave him alone.

Sean caressed her hair and whispered softly, ”Don't cry. It was just an accident. It won't happen again.”

In order to stop them from escaping, Sean had to take the risk and come face to face with the two gang leaders to kill them.
