Let Me Stay The Night

The irregular footsteps made Christina feel even more anxious.

A strong sense of impending danger caused Christina to retreat and instinctively place her hand over her tummy to protect her baby.

Little did she know that her action had further irritated the person.

In the next second. Christina felt someone yanking her hair and slamming her head against something heavy. The intense pain made her feel like her head was splitting open.

Apparently, the person had smashed Christina’s head against a steel pole. After that, she mumbled, “You b*tch! You’re a b*tch! You must die! I’ll kill you! I’ll kill you!”

That’s Madison! Christina could never forget Madison’s voice.

“Let go of me!” Christina scratched Madison’s arm with all her might as pain and confusion flooded her mind. Didn’t Madison go crazy? How would a lunatic know how to pay someone for carrying out their dirty deeds?

Countless thoughts were racing through Christina’s mind, but Madison didn’t give her time to register what was going on. Her actions became even more violent. Hence, Christina was so focused on defending herself that she couldn’t think properly.

Soon, Madison’s wrists started bleeding due to the scratches. Upon feeling the stinging pain, she let go of Christina. Somehow, the black bag over Christina’s head was torn apart during the scuffle.

Christina could barely see clearly under the dim light, but she immediately noticed how horrible Madison looked.

Madison’s tangled-up long hair looked dried and discolored. Her skin was no longer as healthy and fair as before. Instead, it was pallid. Besides, there were blisters all over her lips. As for her eyes, they were bloodshot and filled with viciousness.

At that time, she was clad in a hospital gown smudged with dirt and bloodstains while wearing a pair of slippers, exposing her scarred legs.

Christina couldn’t believe her eyes when she saw Madison’s haggard and disheveled state. Madison was prideful and glamorous back then. Now, she looks miserable! Who would’ve seen this coming?
