A Crazy Night Novel

Christina wasn’t a cruel person. Since Gideon didn’t harm her or Sharon when he followed them, she didn’t see the need to beat him up any further.

Staring at his bleeding nose, she asked coldly, “Is your nose all right?”

Surprised by the concern shown toward him, Gideon frantically shook his head. “I’m fine. It’s just a little bit of blood. In fact, it doesn’t hurt at all. There’s no need for you to worry.”

Christina sneered, “You misunderstand. I’m not concerned about you. As I was the one who struck you, my reputation would be ruined if you were to suffer any after–effects later on and word of it got out. I’m not someone who likes to owe anyone favors.”

Just as she spoke, she retrieved the brick from her bag and threw it into the trash. Thereafter, she handed Gideon a packet of tissues and a wad of cash.

Staring blankly at what she was giving him, Gideon looked disappointed as he attempted to speak but hesitated in the end.

“Wipe away the blood on your face and clothes. Otherwise, people might misunderstand and send you to the police station. As for the money, treat it as compensation for the medical expenses for your nose.”

“I can’t take your money indiscriminately anymore,” Gideon declared with a look of conviction in his eye “I know I have been a jerk all this while by using your mom to force you into a marriage just for money. I might be in dire circumstances now, but adversity has allowed me to find meaning in life. Therefore, I’m not going to repeat the same mistakes again.”

Just when Christina assumed that Gideon was lying, the latter stood up proudly before walking away with an unsteady gait.

Briefly stunned, Christina began to pack her things with a sense of dread.

She was uncertain if Gideon had really turned over a new leaf, but what concerned her more was the fact that he could see Sharon in her absence.

Given how soft–hearted Sharon was, she would be in danger if she was taken in by Gideon’s repentant charade.

After all, she was a victim of the latter’s insidious methods in the past.
