My Husband's Betrayal My Brothers' Revenge (Rebekah) novel Chapter 179

Rebekah turned back to the clerk. "In that case, can I wait for Daphne in her office?"

"I'm afraid not," the clerk said bluntly. "Dr. Rivers' office is private."

Benjamin looked at Rebekah with impatience. "Can you go one day without embarrassing yourself? Do you really think you can just demand to see someone like Daphne? Just put some ointment on whatever little scratch you have. Stop being so dramatic."

Candice, still leaning on Benjamin's arm, shifted her injured foot and let out a small hiss of pain, immediately drawing his concern.

"What is it?"

"It's nothing. It just hurts a little when I move my ankle."

Benjamin frowned. "You have to dance. If your foot is permanently damaged, your whole life will be ruined."

Rebekah laughed coldly to herself. So he did understand that a ruined foot meant a ruined life. She wondered if he'd considered that when he deliberately delayed her treatment at the hospital all those years ago, ensuring her own injuries would never fully heal. The memory sparked a flicker of true hatred within her.

Benjamin suddenly turned his glare on her. "Candice has injured her foot twice now because of you. Don't you have anything to say?"

Rebekah smirked. "Like what?"

"Apologize!"

There it was again. Apologize. Rebekah held up her bruised wrist in front of him. "And what about this, Mr. Forrester? Shouldn't you be apologizing to me?"

For a second, seeing the bruise, Benjamin felt a jolt of guilt. He had been the one to ruin her wrist and ankle. Had she found out?

Candice was dressed in a fresh green dress that fell to her knees. She was putting all her weight on her left foot, using Benjamin for support. Her right foot, clad in a delicate white stiletto sandal, was held slightly off the ground.

Daphne's comment made her blush. She was about to retort when Daphne spoke again. "Your little problem doesn't require my attention. I'll have one of the other doctors in the clinic see you."

"Miss Rivers, we have an appointment with you."

Daphne ignored her. "Miss Fletcher, I suggest you take better care of your feet. Otherwise, they might never heal properly."

With that, she walked over to Rebekah, her expression softening instantly. "Let's go."

Rebekah nodded. As they were about to head to the back, Benjamin's voice stopped them. "Our appointment was with Dr. Rivers. Is this how you treat your clients?"
