A Crazy Night Novel

Victoria had already offended the Ludwig family and didn’t mind blowing the matter up.

Those who dare to bully my friend will pay the price.

“Vera, we haven’t resolved this issue yet, so you’re not going anywhere!” Victoria exclaimed, rushing over to block Anya’s path with a determined stance. Folding her arms defiantly, she lifted her chin and shot Anya a sarcastic gaze. “Did you conveniently forget how arrogant and smug you were in front of my friend last night? You had the audacity to act that way, yet you cowered at the thought of me exposing your actions to everyone?”

Anya’s fists clenched tightly, her anger bubbling to the surface as she shot Victoria a menacing glare. The growing whispers around them seemed to amplify. The onlookers relished the drama and chose to indulge in the show rather than intervene or defuse the situation.

Christina’s expression twisted into an evil grin as she declared, “Oh, it seems you were desperate to offer yourself to him, but he rejected you. How pitiful. As a member of the esteemed Ludwig family, you clearly didn’t uphold your position and instead stooped so low as to offer yourself as someone’s lover. Has the once prestigious Ludwig family fallen so far that they are willing to discard their dignity and pride in exchange for money? If your ancestors were to learn of your disgraceful actions as their descendant, they would surely rise from their coffins in righteous fury.

Though Anya seethed with frustration, she knew they were currently being watched by a curious audience. She growled softly, “Victoria, let’s not go too far. I haven’t done anything to harm you, and we should both conduct ourselves as adults. Isn’t it childish to publicly accuse and slander me, tarnishing not just my reputation but also that of my family?”

Victoria’s confidence remained unyielding as she fired back a retort. “Being a coward is embarrassing. I’m confronting you in public instead of resorting to despicable tricks behind your back. How is it childish to address the situation directly? It seems you’re feeling guilty, and that’s why you find this embarrassing!”

Clearly, Anya was not Victoria’s match.

Humiliation coursed through Anya’s veins, overwhelming her as an instinctive urge to retaliate and teach Victoria a lesson welled up inside her. But before she could act on it, a firm grip closed around her wrist.

Surprised, she turned over her shoulder to see Yerek gazing at her darkly. At once, she stiffened.

“Ms. Ludwig, don’t be reckless. We are in a public setting, and even if someone else disregards their own dignity, you should be mindful of your own image. Yerek spared Victoria a malicious smile. “Ms. Lesley, resorting to violence will not resolve anything. Perhaps it would be wise for both of you to find another venue to have a discussion. Indulge me by engaging in a civil conversation.
