Chapter 118 An Eye for an Eye, Mr Sallow?

“Nicholas, it hurts!”

“Save me, Nicholas!

Madelline pitifully sobbed as she swiftly buried herself in Nicholas’ arms.

Nicholas turned to look at Nancy with deep eyes as he wrapped Madelline in his embrace.

Nancy merely stood there. She did not even twitch or blink.

The knife in her hand was still dripping with warm blood as the metallic scent of blood filled the

When she saw Nicholas embracing Madelline, her eyes remained cold and composed. Nothing about her facial expression changed.

If it were any other time, she would be extremely worried, panicking over the possibility he would misunderstand her intentions.

Yet, none of that was important now.

Nothing was important. She did not care about what he would do or say after witnessing this.

She did not care what he thought of her. He could think of her as evil, vicious, and ruthless. She couldn’t care less.

“If you’re so worried about her, hurry up and carry your sweet lover to the nearest doctor for treatment. If you dally any longer, she might die.” Nancy drawled calmly as she stared back at Nicholas.

He seemed to be staring at her in disbelief.

At that moment, she was like a stranger. She was not the Nancy he knew.
