Chapter 718
You Hit My Heart
Juanita walked into the pharmacy, searched the shelves, took a box of
medicine and an anti-inflammatory spray. Finally, she walked to the
checkout counter and picked up two bottles of mineral water.
"How much?"
She handed over the stuff in her hand.
The staff was a woman. She glanced at the box and said, "Girl, you
should pay attention to the usage of this medicine.â
âOne capsule at a time, within 72 hours.â
âI'll get you the black bag for it.â
âA total of $109."
"Oh, thanks."
Juanita was a little embarrassed.
After checking out, she hurriedly took the black bag and walked out.
Back in the car, Karl was still waiting for her.
"Sorry for the long wait."
Juanita got into the car. She took a bottle of mineral water from the bag,
opened it and handed it to Karl, "Got a bottle of water for you too."
"And this anti-inflammatory spray. When you're in the police station,
you can use it when you're free.â
âThere are still many areas of the wound that have not scabbed over.â
âIt gets better faster with this and so you won't have to worry about
infection.â
She took the spray out of the bag and put it in his hand.
Then she opened her bottle of mineral water, took a pill out of the box
she got for herself and swallowed it.
Karl looked at her suspiciously when he saw her raise her head to
swallow the medicine.
He suddenly gripped her hand hard, "What kind of medicine are you
taking?"
âIt's nothing, just ordinary medicine."
Juanita did not even look into his eyes when she said that.
Karl was a detective. He immediately sensed something wrong from
her expression. He snatched the black bag from her and got the box
inside. When he saw the name of the medicine, his eyes were wide
open.
"What are you doing? You can't take this medicine, spit it out!" He
squeezed Juanita's chin hard and forced her to open her mouth, trying
to make her spit out the medicine.
Juanita was squeezed by him, "I ate it already! How can I spit it out?
Let go.â
âI'm fine."
Karl let go of her hand, his brow furrowed, and anger was written in his
handsome face.
"Emergency contraceptives should not be taken indiscriminately. They
could be very harmful to your health."
"Wow, you even know about that. Not bad for a detective.â
Juanita laughed dryly, "last night we did not do contraception, and I am
not in a safe period. Of course, I need to do something to remedy the
situation.â
âDon't worry. I won't give you any trouble.â
"I didn't mean that, and I ..."
Halfway through Karl's sentence, Juanita had started the car, "We will
get to the police station soon.â
âI'll drop you off, and then I'll take a taxi myself."
Karl tried to speak, but was interrupted by Juanita again.
âYou're going back to the Capital next month, and I'm planning to go
back.â
âThis month, I'll be handing in my resignation to R&S Group and hand
over the job."
Karl looked at her in disbelief.
Juanita turned her face and gave him a serious look, "Since you are
going to the Central Prosecutor's Office, I'll go to the Municipal
Secretary's Office. Perhaps I can help you sometime in that case.â
âTogether we will avenge Joyce and make Charlotte pay for it ."
âYou ..." Karl was dumbfounded, not expecting her to have such an
idea.
She was such a good and generous girl.
"About last night, I still have to say that, I ..." he tried to speak.
Juanita suddenly braked sharply.
Karl was almost thrown forward. He pulled on the handle before he
could sit still and eventually he couldn't finish his sentence.
"Here we are in the police station, so get out of the car.â
She showed him a stunningly gentle smile, "There are some words that
need not be said.â
"I understand.â
Karl frowned gently and responded, "Good."
