Let Me Stay The Night Novel (Christina and Nathaniel)

Chapter 717 Backfired

Is Azure at her wit’s end? I can’t believe she still wants to clear Nigel’s name!

Christina retorted sharply, “There’s no need for you to exhaust yourself trying to clear Nigel’s name. If he never had the intention to harm anyone, he wouldn’t need Winston’s help. Nigel is going to jail, and that’s a fact, so you don’t need to waste time defending him or attempting to overturn his case.”

Right after her words fell, a knife swung toward her.

Azure had swiftly retrieved a knife from her bag and swung it menacingly at Christina, her expression filled with hostility.

With lightning-fast reflexes, Lyle swiftly disarmed Azure, knocking the knife out of her hand. He then twisted her wrist, causing a loud crack to echo through the room as Azure let out a piercing scream of pain.

Lyle forcefully pushed Azure away, creating distance between her and Christina. After positioning himself in front of Christina, he assumed a protective stance and fixed Azure with a stern glare.

Azure was too old to climb to her feet after crashing to the ground.

Right then, someone knocked on the door from the outside.

Azure gathered her might and called for help, “Help! Someone wants to kill me! Save me! Don’t come near me!”

Both Christina and Lyle stood rooted to their spots, watching Azure putting up an act.

Outside, the commotion grew as people heard Azure’s cries for assistance. They started pounding on the door, desperately trying to break in and come to her aid.
