Chapter116
But the her from the past is already dead, when she heard his words, she didn’t feel happy, she just felt disgusted!
Lizzie just felt like he only said that to make peace, how could she not feel disgusted!
“So, putting me and Johanna together in the same research institute again, is that not unfair to me? Or are you implying, Mr. Howland, that you still want to have your cake and eat–it too, trying to have the best of both worlds?”
Theron’s eyes showed clear hurt, “Lizzie, how could you think that of me? I never felt that way! I was just trying to make it up to you. I hope. you understand, Johanna is just a temporary arrangement here, I’ll find another way out for her soon.”
His explanation didn’t move Lizzie at all, the sarcasm in her tone was almost overflowing. “Oh? Is that so? Well, I really have to thank Mr. Howland for thinking of me so ‘thoroughly.”
She spun
spun in her chair, facing Theron’s legs, and bumped into him again.
Theron instinctively dodged, and Lizzie walked away from him.
Johanna also found out that Theron helped Lizzie walk around and wanted to help her return to work, so she hid in the distance early to watch.
Watching Lizzie still stubbornly throwing a tantrum and not forgiving, she secretly felt happy, so don’t blame her for interfering!

So, she just happened to pass by and‘ saw the two of them parting ways after an argument, with a look of just the right amount of concern ont her face.
She walked quickly and caught up with Lizzie, pretending to advise Theron, “Lizzie, don’t make things difficult for Theron anymore. Theron has arranged a new way out for me, and I will really leave soon. Please stop throwing a tantrum, okay?”
Lizzie was almost laughing out of anger, “You two are a perfect match! If I don’t go along with you, don’t revolve around you, am I throwing a tantrum, am I being stubborn?”
Johanna sighed helplessly, turned to look at Theron, was about to speak, but was interrupted by Lizzie.
“Theron, didn’t you see that she was secretly showing off like, even if I forced her to leave, so what, you would still arrange another way out for her, Theron!”
Lizzie didn’t give them any face.
Theron’s eyes widened in surprise as he looked at Johanna through Lizzie’s perspective for the first time. It seemed like when she was openly conceding, she was actually showing off.
Johanna felt a bit flustered when she saw Theron’s scrutinizing gaze on
her.
Lizzie smirked and said, “Drop the fake act, it’s disgusting to watch.”
She finished speaking, turned her wheelchair, and planned to avoid the two annoying people.
Johanna’s eyes flashed with a hint of fierceness, but quickly returned to her calm and graceful demeanor.

She took a step forward, reached out her hand, as if she wanted to stop Lizzie, wanted to talk to her again.
“Lizzie, listen to me…”
She deliberately used her body to block Lizzie, so that whatever action she took could be blocked by herself. In the end, it was up to her to say whatever she wanted!
However, Lizzie was already a pro at framing others with her usual tricks.
Just as Johanna’s fingers were about to touch the wheelchair armrest, her body prepared to tilt to one side – Lizzie pushed down on the armrest with both hands, exerted force with her upper body, and stood up directly from the wheelchair, hands outstretched, revealed.
She didn’t touch Johanna!
Johanna was stunned, but her body had already fallen backwards.
When they thought about trying to stand firm or further trap Lizzie, she was already within arm’s reach.
If she tried to touch Lizzie again, it would be way too obvious!
She didn’t have time to think about what to do, and the person had. already fallen to the ground.
This act of pretending to be hit is just so awkward and stiff.
Lizzie raised an eyebrow, she really wanted to see how red Johanna’s face could get, to keep acting. And how blind Theron’s eyes were, couldn’t even see that!
Johanna didn’t look good either. Johanna secretly cursed, how did Lizzie predict that she was going to fall!

Although Lizzie didn’t “knock down” her routine, the show must go on and she still had to keep singing!
She put her hand on her stomach, didn’t even cry out in pain, just bit her lip tightly.
Theron, who was standing next to them, was completely stunned by the scene.
Theron froze in place, he even forgot to help Johanna who fell down.
Johanna’s behavior at the moment gave him a strong shock, it was so different from the gentle and considerate image he remembered.
