Unstoppable Unforgiven (Shermaine and Joshua) novel Chapter 344

Chapter 344

Danielle replied, “It’s healing fast. Ross has a strong constitution. He’s already up and walking. The stitches should come out in another week. The doctor is doing his routine check. Want to talk to him?” Her foot was still in a cast, likely for another two weeks.

“No, I’m having lunch. I’ll head out soon after,” Shermaine said. With Danielle’s care, she had no worries about Ross. Besides, they were in the middle of a budding romance, no point intruding on their time.

Danielle raised an eyebrow. “Oh? Then why did you date her?”

Ross hesitated. “There was another girl who kept chasing me. I had no choice but to use Amelia as a shield.” Using
