Chapter 108 The Retaliation.
She approached Mindy and, showing no hesitation, she slashed the latter’s face viciously.
Raylee’s actions were swift and came without warning.
Before Mindy had the chance to dodge, she was cut by the knife. The pain was so intense that she let out a piercing scream.
“Ah, it hurt How dare you cut me, you wretched woman. I’m going to kill you!”
With a fierce determination. Mindy wanted to lunge at Raylee and beat the latter to death.
Yet, when she saw the gleaming utility knife in Raylee’s hand, she didn’t dare attack.
Raylee looked at the fresh blood on Mindy’s face, a cruel smile forming at the corners of her mouth.
“Hahaha” Our grudges, past and present, will all be settled at once. Oh, no, this is just the appetizer. I’ll take everything you owe me bit by bitt
“The utility knife was incredibly sharp and had deeply pierced Mindy’s delicate skin, causing a ceaseless flow of blood.
She felt the warm liquid trickling down her face and immediately covered it with her hand, which was soon soaked with fresh blood
Given a scare, she cried out in fear, “My face is ruined. Save me, Wavy! Quickly, call for an ambulance…”
Despite her frail condition. Waverly rushed to Mindy, tears streaming down her face in distress.
“Mindy, are you alright? Don’t worry, your face isn’t ruined. Let me help you stop the bleeding…
Tears streaming down her face, Waverly fetched the first aid kit. She then proceeded to treat Mindy’s wound with gauze and lodine.
Looking at the ghastly wound. Waverly tearfully reproached Raylee.
“Raylee, that was way out of line. How could you possibly hurt my best friend with a knife! If you have any grievances, take them out on me! Why did you have to lay a hand on Mindy?”
“Heh, remember, those were your words, not mine. I’ll grant you your wish, so here I come!”
Raylee’s face was filled with a chilling hostility. She raised the utility knife, advancing menacingly toward Waverly.
However, before he had the chance to approach her, the three members of the Goodridge family had already rushed over to protect their little princess.
Harriet anxiously said, “Ray–Ray, please don’t hurt Wavy, she’s your sister!”
“Raylee, if you dare harm Wavy. I will never forgive you!” Samuel warned.
“Enough, how dare you raise your hand in my presence? Do you think I, the head of the family, am dead?” Alaric barked.
The protective stance of the three toward Waverly was a stark contrast to their earlier indifference.
Raylee regarded Alaric with a sarcastic gaze.
“Exactly, it was Mindy who started it. She hit me right in front of you, as if you were invisible, didn’t she?”
Alaric frowned, realizing that his indifference when Mindy hit Raylee earlier was inappropriate.
Mindy shouted, “Raylee hurt me on purpose! I’m going to call the police. I’ll make sure she ends up behind bars!”
Alaric turned his head, glaring at her fiercely.
“I cant believe you still have the nerve to call the police! You were the one who started the fight. What right do you have to blame Ray–Ray for this?”
Chapter 108 The Retaliation
Upon being shouted at. Mindy tucked her head between her shoulders.
“Daddy.” Waverly defended through her tears. “Mindy only slapped Rayler, but Raylee cut her! Minity is not just my best friend, but shes also like a sister to me, as we grew up together Even though she came from a poor family, she treated me very well and was an incredibly loyal friend. She only attacked Raylee because she couldn’t stand to see me being bullied
Seeing his younger sister’s tear–streaked face, Samuel couldn’t help but pull her into his embrace.
He patted her back to soothe her, then Raylee gave a reproachful look.
“Wavy is right. Why did you have to resort to violence! The face means a lot to a girl, and yet, you had the audacity to cut Mindy’s face. You’ve really crossed the line!”
“I crossed the line!” Raylee, brimming with resentment pointed at Mindy
ned
“
“This woman hit me, and you did nothing. She slandered me in the bar accusing me of pushing Waverly down the stairs, and still you did nothing Raylee listed her grievances one by one
“Also, four years ago, she wrongly accused me of stealing a necklace in public, and you did nothing about it. And now. I just gave her a small cut and you’re defending her you really love to play faventes dont you.
dear brother?”
When she said the word “brother,” Raylees tone was thick with malice and sarcasm. Her disgust couldn’t be any more
obvious
Samuel was left speechless by her sharp retort
Suddenly, he realized that he was the one who had crossed the line
Not too long ago, he had seen Baylee on the brink of death It was then that he had made a promise to himself to treat her better going forward.
Yet, in a blink of an eye, he had neglected her by showing bias toward a stranger.
Samuel instinctively raised his hand, wanting to gently touch Raylee’s face, and to ask if it hurt from the slaps.
He had barely lifted his hand when he quickly pulled it back
She would surely reject my show of concern, so why should I set maefup for humiliation
“What happened at the bar! Why hasn’t anyone told me about it” Alaric suddenly asked with a serious expression
He deliberately skirted around the issue by only mentioning the incident the bar and conveniently overlooking the matter from four years ago.
