The Marriage She Turned into War novel Chapter 286

As soon as I finished speaking, Joshua's expression changed. Joanna also realized she had said the wrong thing.

"Samuel, I know Lana just had surgery and needs rest. But if I'm here bothering you, she probably won't be happy, right? She might get upset, and who knows if she could end up with complications," Joshua said with a cold smile.

"Don't you dare!" I snapped, furious.

Joshua sneered. "Why wouldn't I dare? If you've got the guts, hit me. This ward is a VIP suite anyway. If you lay a hand on me, I'll have every reason to take over this bed."

The nerve of him to even think like that!

"You're just trying to annoy me. Speak up. What do you want?"

I couldn't be bothered to waste more time with him. He was one of those shameless pests I couldn't shake off.

"I saw you bought some fruit. Peel an apple for me," he said with a smug grin.

I shot him a cold glance. If I didn't care about Lana, I'd have already thrown him out of here. But still, I took out an apple and started peeling it for him.

"You're really obedient. Now, fetch me some water to soak my feet. I feel like washing them," Joshua said, grabbing the apple from me.

"What did you just say?" My face darkened immediately. Was this bastard trying to make a fool of me?

"I said I want to wash my feet. What's the problem? If you've got an issue with it, well, I'll just stay here."

He looked like a complete scoundrel, utterly disgusting.

"Samuel, it's just washing my feet. You've done it before. Don't forget, Abigail made you wash my feet several times," Joshua continued shamelessly.

His words were a direct insult, but he wasn't wrong. I had indeed washed his feet before, but that was under Abigail's orders.

Back then, I obeyed as I was trying to atone my sins. But I had moved on now, and there was no way I'd degrade myself like that again.

"You want to wash your feet?" I said, a dangerous smile creeping onto my face.
