Let Me Stay The Night

Having been repeatedly attacked by Victoria, Emilia knew she couldn’t take it lying down longer. It was time to fight back!

Unfortunately, Victoria showed no signs of stopping as she yanked the woman out of the ca and gave her two tight slaps.

For a moment, Emilia’s head spun. When she finally snapped out of her daze and tried to claw at Victoria’s face, the latter easily held her back.

By the time Christina lumbered out of the restaurant, the scene before her had become so chaotic that she couldn’t believe her eyes.

She hastily walked to Victoria, who was straddling Emilia, and pulled her to her feet. “Are you out of your mind, Victoria? You’re being a public nuisance! Do you think you haven’t gone viral enough on social media?”

Red-eyed and maniacal, Victoria bit her lower lip. “I’m about to lose Sebastian, so why should I care? Leave me be, Christina. I want to rip this b*tch’s skin off!”

“Are you happy now?” Emilia fumed as she glared at Christina. “You found someone to stick for you and beat me to a pulp, huh? This is all your fault! Fight me fair and square if you have the guts! Stop hiding behind others and making them do your dirty work!”

By then, Lyle had also heard the commotion and hurriedly approached Christina. “Mrs. Hadley, I’ll arrange for someone to send her away,” he said, shooting a cold stare at Emilia.

To his surprise, Christina shook her head. “No. I have something to say to her. Take Ms. Lesley to the car first.”

After all, we’re in the commercial district, and the crowd around us is getting bigger by the second Victoria is still trending on social media, and given how easily recognizable she is, it wouldnt do her any good if this matter blew up

Despite having a moment of hesitation, Lyle eventually came around Hum Eppose that’d be all right. Emilia has just been beaten up and there are so many unlookers, I doubt she id da amoking to Christina
