Chapter 642

Warner froze in his tracks, that all–too–familiar look of impatience creeping back onto his face.

Evadne let go of Thaddeus‘ hand and marched up to Warner with the speed of a tempest.

The next second, her slender arm swung through the air, her fiery blue eyes blazing with fury as she slapped the privileged man across the face–not once, but twice!

The sound resonated, leaving the onlookers, including Thaddeus, in shock.

Warner himself was stunned beyond belief, and it wasn’t until the sting on his cheek flared up and blood trickled from the corner of his mouth that he fully grasped what had happened.

He had been slapped!

“Evadne!” Warner covered his face with his hands, his voice shaking with rage as he struggled to hold back his fury.

Thaddeus strode over with long, determined steps, wrapping his protective arms around Evadne, his gaze upon Warner dark and foreboding.

Warner felt a chill down his spine, the pain on his face momentarily forgotten under the hellish stare.

The first slap, Warner, was for Chasel. I don’t care what he is to you, but to me, he’s my brother, my friend! You hit him, you hit me.

“Wow! Go, Evadne! I’m so here for this!” Aviana almost cheered out loud.

If she didn’t stand up to this jerk now, she’d be serving up a plate of Lionel’s “Golden Grains” to this mongrel.

“Evadne.” Chasel’s eyes brimmed with tears.

It was ironic, really.
