Chapter 867 “Hmm, Christine?” Meanwhile, a rather pleasantly surprised voice was heard from the right elevator entrance. Christine‘s expression froze before turning icy cold instantly upon hearing the voice. The voice belonged to a beautiful woman with a tall, slender, and well – proportioned figure. She walked over with a smile on her face.
“It really is you! Christine , why didn‘t you tell me that you‘re coming to Skyspring? Am I not your bestie anymore?”
Her tone was tainted with a tinge of accusation.
Christine turned around to face the woman, her expression icy cold. “What a coincidence to bump into you here, Verna.”
Verna Sox was planning on giving Christine a hug, but her smile froze instantly when she sensed Christine‘s coldness and anger.
Verna looked at her innocently. “What‘s going on, Christine? We‘re besties. Have I done anything that offended you?”
Christine chuckled coldly. “I bet you‘re very disappointed that I‘ve already recovered from my injuries, right? In fact, you‘ve taken care of me so well over the years!”
Verna‘s expression changed ever so slightly upon hearing that. She said in a grieving tone, “What are you talking about, Christine? I don‘t understand.”
“Why are you still pretending to be clueless, Verna? Who are you feigning for? Could it be that you‘re still unaware of the energy you left in my body?”
Christine‘s eyes were burning with fury, and she said through her gritted teeth, “I treated you like my bestie and regarded you as my best friend in the world! Yet, this was how you returned my friendship.
You attacked me in secret and caused my injury!” Verna‘s expression changed drastically. She furrowed her eyebrows, then cracked a smile in contempt all of a sudden.
“I didn‘t expect that you‘d actually notice that... Christine, you‘re a lucky girl, huh? You‘re still alive after being injured to such a severe extent!”
Meanwhile, Kayson remembered that he had removed the cold energy from Christine‘s body, and Christine told him about the incident in the past.
He remembered that she was traveling with a person she regarded as her friend at the time.
He did not expect that the person would actually be her best friend in the world.
Eira said angrily, “It was you who harmed my employer? What a malicious woman you are!” Verna sneered. “Who do you think you are? You‘re just Christine‘s personal slave. Who gave you the right to
speak?”
Upon saying that, she raised her hand in preparation to give Eira a slap.
Christine stepped forward swiftly upon noticing the situation and clutched Verna‘s wrist.
Verna chuckled and said, “Christine , do you think that you can fight me when I‘m capable of channeling energy into your body without your notice?”
Christine‘s expression changed drastically. In the next moment, a layer of invisible energy was released from Verna‘s wrist.
The energy injured Christine‘s palm that was clutching Verna‘s wrist. Her palm was flushed, and it appeared as if her skin was blistering.
Verna assumed an arrogant expression. “You think too much of yourself!”
Then, she continued to swing her palm at Eira.
At this exact moment, Kayson stepped forward and
shielded Eira with his body. He did not clutch Verna‘s wrist but used his palm to block Verna with precision.
Then, he nudged her hand gently and sent Verna staggering backward with a shocked expression.
“You!”
Verna looked at Kayson incredulously, her gaze filled with fear. This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
“You‘re a skilled fighter?”
Kayson said nonchalantly, “Trying to hit my friend before me?”
Verna‘s gaze was sinister, and her eyes looked like a venomous snake‘s. She said in a ghastly tone, “Piss off. How dare you meddle with other people‘s business? I‘m going to ensure you can‘t walk away from Skyspring!”
