Nicholas bit his lips and slowly straightened up with his hands on his side.

Cordelia ran to Zephyr and looked at Nicholas warily.

Cordelia was angered and was going to say something, but Linda rushed forward and slapped the man.

“Linda…”

“Get out.” Linda glared at the man. “Leave!”

He smiled and looked at Linda, but there was a wash of grief in his eyes.

“Why have you become like this…” Linda’s voice was trembling. “Nicholas, and leave right now. Don’t disturb my friend again!”

Nicholas nodded and swiftly recovered his thuggish way.
