One Night Surprise

Chapter 487 Blood for Blood

On the way downstairs, Ruby gave Courtney a basic rundown of the situation.

“A dozen or so employees who were fired before are now bringing a bunch of people downstairs to cause trouble. They are holding banners while shouting that Citron Apparel is heartlessly profiteering and treating human life as a child’s play…”

At the moment, the building was surrounded by a group of strangers, some of whom were holding wooden signs and banners while others had bandanas tied around their heads with three large bloody letters written on it—blood for blood.

When Courtney rushed downstairs, she could see Angie trying to calm everything down. Her slender body looked particularly helpless among the restless crowd, and her shouts were all swallowed by the clamor of noise.

“Angie!” Courtney yelled to call back Angie as the latter moved forward. When Angie retreated behind her, she already had a clear sight of the entire situation.

“Citron Apparel doesn’t care about human lives!”

“They are heartless and only care about their profits. Give me back my health!”

“They are the scum of society and Melrose City. Citron Apparel, I want you to pay me back blood for blood!”
