Chapter 19 Stop Crying , You'll Get A Job Chapter 19 Stop Crying , You'll Get A Job +10 Free Coins While they were fighting , Juliette had already hidden herself . She only knew a few small tricks to buy time ; if it came down to an actual fight , she'd probably just get in the way . She crouched in the corner nervously ,, but thankfully , Max handled every moment of danger with perfection . His final kick landed on one man's nasal bone . Juliette could practically hear the sound of that bone cracking . Blood gushed from the man's nose . She didn't feel a shred of sympathy for scum like them - so long as they weren't dead , she didn't care what happened next . With two of the men already taken down , Juliette was just about to come out from hiding when she noticed the one Max had knocked out earlier slowly getting up . Somehow , he'd found a brick and was silently approaching Max . " Behind you ! " Juliette shouted , running forward . Max heard her just as the brick was raised high in the air and brought crashing down . Suddenly , he felt someone throw themselves at his back ... It was a soft , warm body . The brick smashed against a skull and shattered into pieces . Juliette felt a sharp numbness spread through her entire body . Realizing he'd made a huge mistake , the man stepped back in a panic and bolted toward the exit . Max turned around and saw Juliette's face , pale as a sheet . " Where did it hit you ? " " The back , but I don't think it's serious ." Juliette reached to touch the back of her head . Looking at her hand , it was stained red with blood . Her vision blurred , her strength seemed to drain all at once , and she couldn't stay on her feet anymore . But she didn't collapse onto the floor ; she fell into someone's arms . " Idiot ! " That was the last thing she heard before losing consciousness , the man's frustrated voice . She was an idiot , and she admitted it . Otherwise , how could her life have ended up like this ? Inside the Rolls - Royce , Juliette was completely unconscious . Max ordered the driver to head straight to the hospital , and Caleb quickly contacted a renowned local neurologist . That chaotic night passed . The next time Juliette opened her eyes , it was already noon the following day . 1/4 19:49 Fri , Sep 26 Chapter 19 Stop Crying . You'll Get A Job +10 Free Coins That familiar hospital smell lingered in her nose . A handsome man sat beside her , watching her closely . His eyes were bloodshot . He clearly hadn't slept well . The doctor said you might have memory loss . Do you remember me ? " " Nope . Juliette blinked innocently . The man pressed his lips together . For someone used to calling the shots , to controlling lives with ease , he now looked completely at a loss . Seeing his face , Juliette couldn't help but laugh . Just kidding . Max , my bodyguard husband . Super good at fighting , and has a sharp tongue too . " Max's face darkened instantly . He raised his hand , intending to flick her forehead , but remembering her head injury , he grabbed her cheek instead . Pinching the soft skin between his fingers , he tugged it lightly and said , " Do you think this is the time to be joking ? " Ow ! It hurts ! " He released her face , and the soft feeling between his fingers vanished . " Don't worry , I'm Juliette , not Vivienne . I'm tough . I've had worse injuries in prison . Ran a high fever for ten days straight without even seeing a doctor ," Juliette said , her face still pale . " How reckless . Since you're awake , don't you think you owe me an explanation ? Why were you working at that kind of place ? " Max questioned . She got lucky this time because he just happened to be passing by . But what if he wasn't there ? Did she ever consider what could've happened to her ? Or did she simply not care about her own dignity anymore ? " What's wrong with working at that kind of place ? " Juliette's tone fell . Don't you think there's a problem ? A girl working somewhere like that ? The chances of running into scum are way higher ! I might be able to save you once , but what about twice or three times ? How many times can your head take a beating ? " Juliette knew Max wasn't wrong . But that job paid five thousand dollars a month ! It was the highest - paying job she could find at the moment . Seeing her stay silent , Max said coldly , " I'm going to quit that job for you . You're not going back " " Why do you get to decide for me ? " Juliette snapped emotionally . 2/4 19:49 Fri , Sep 26 Chapter 19 Stop Crying . You'll Get A Job +10 Free Coins " What ? Not playing mute anymore ? Then tell me - what's so great about that job ? What's holding you back ? " Juliette was so angry , her chest heaved . " That job isn't great , okay ? It sounds terrible , makes people think I'm cheap , and I know all that ! But have you ever thought about what kind of situation I'm in now ? I've been to prison ! What company would even consider hiring me ? Max . do you think I haven't tried ? But just having a place to live , and one meal a day , is already more than I could hope for right now !" By the time she finished , her eyes were red . She didn't want him to see her tears , so she pulled the blanket over her face . From underneath , he could hear her sniffing quietly. Max pressed his fingers to his temple . He was trying to reason with her , and he never meant make her cry . When it came to comforting women , he had zero experience . " We're both adults . Stop crying already , " he said awkwardly . " None of your business ," came the muffled reply from under the blanket . " What did you study in college ? " " Clinical medicine . " Just saying it made Juliette want to cry even more .
