Chapter 369 No Bail

After a one–sided scuffle, Jane snorted disdainfully and gave Christopher a contemptuous glance. “Tsk. I didn’t expect you to have such endurance.”

Christopher’s face bore the marks of Jane’s slaps and scratches, and his suit also showed signs of her aggression. Despite being able to endure, he didn’t retaliate after the initial impulse to slap her.

What frustrated Jane was the soreness in her arms from the altercation.

“Ms. Coolidge, have you released all your anger?” Christopher inquired with a lowered voice.

Jane retorted, “What if I haven’t? Will you return tomorrow for another round of hits?”

She intended her words as a taunt, but Christopher didn’t respond. Instead, he raised his hand and swung it fiercely.

His sudden movement startled Jane, causing her to step back.

Jane observed Christopher’s instantly swollen face with a hint of amusement.
