Roderick stared at her for two seconds, then suddenly pushed her against the wall in the hallway, “Andic, you’ve been acting really weird lately.”
“Did you find anything?” She struggled and tried to push it open, but couldn’t.
This struggling only made Roderick more irritated.
He roughly kissed her, only realizing he had bitten her lip when he tasted the bloody flavor.
Andrea didn’t even frown, just wiped away the blood with her fingertips and said softly, “I’m going to take a shower.”
Roderick stared at her straight back, then suddenly kicked over the flower stand in the hallway.
“Andrea came back?”
Matilda came downstairs when she heard the noise and asked, “Feeling better?”
Andrea sidestepped, the outstretched hand frozen in midair.
Faced with Matilda’s fake concern, Andrea couldn’t help but feel disgusted.
My stomach was in turmoil.
She instinctively covered her stomach.
“Still feeling uncomfortable? Let’s go upstairs,. I’ll make you some

nourishing soup,” Roderick frowned, but his tone was caring.
“Please step back,” Andrea said softly, causing Matilda to take a step back.
Matilda’s smile froze on her face.
When Roderick entered the kitchen, Matilda’s eyes instantly turned malicious.
The stairs were made of marble, thirteen steps.
When Andrea was halfway up, she heard the hurried sound of high heels behind her.
“You thought you won?”
Matilda grabbed the railing to block her way, the fake gentleness disappeared, “Besides pretending to be weak in front of Roderick, what else can you do?”
Andrea clenched her fist, feeling uncomfortable now, not planning to pay attention to this woman.
“Wait a minute!”
Just as she was about to continue walking up, Matilda suddenly grabbed her arm, and Andrea caught a glimpse of Roderick walking
out.
She immediately understood Matilda’s intention.
“If you’re going to fall, fall big.”
Andrea suddenly grabbed her wrist and pulled her forward, getting close to her ear in Matilda’s terrified gaze, “Remember to cry out loud.”

In the screams, Matilda tumbled down eight steps.
Her skirt was rolled up above her knees, her carefully styled curls were messy like grass, the tears this time were real, and her ankle was visibly swollen.
The noise over here successfully caught Roderick’s attention.
“Andrea, why did you push me?” Matilda exaggeratedly cried.
When Andrea saw Roderick at the staircase, she immediately put on a look of grievance and said, “I didn’t.”
“It’s okay Andrea, I won’t blame you,” Matilda pretended to be understanding.
Roderick glanced at Matilda on the ground, no pity in his eyes, as if to say, “I warned you last time.”
I didn’t expect Roderick to not stand by her this time. Matilda’s hope in her eyes, suddenly vanished.
“Do you believe her, not me?”
Roderick didn’t even give Matilda an extra glance, in his eyes, it was just her little trick.
He walked upstairs quickly and supported Andrea, “How are you?”
Andrea shook her head, “I’m fine, what about Matilda?”
“Go back to the room.
Roderick led Andrea up the stairs, and when they reached the last step, Andrea turned around and gave Matilda a defiant look.
Matilda was so angry that she almost bit her back teeth off.

Just the thought of Matilda failing makes Andrea feel great.
Luckily, Roderick didn’t come to her room last night, so she slept peacefully.
Early in the morning, she was already holding her tablet, Andrea’s fingertip hovering over the deficit in the quarterly report.
The art studio “Cloud Gallery” was her father’s final wish for her, but now the profit curve is plummeting like a bird with broken wings.
“The ‘Ink Gallery‘ across the street poached three of our VIP students last month.”
