Chapter 223 Blood for Blood
But Simon didn’t believe a word Lily said.
He also didn’t want to disappoint his precious Lizzy, so his voice came out cold and cruel.
“Lily, I don’t want to hear your excuses. I just want to see you pay in blood.”
But she wasn’t making excuses.
She was telling the truth.
A crushing sense of helplessness devoured Lily’s heart, followed by a tidal wave of emotions that left her too drained to even want to keep fighting.
But why?
Why should she be the one to suffer the consequences when someone else had done wrong?
The one who deserved to die wasn’t her–it was Elsa, that venomous snake, and those two blind fools, John and Simon.
She didn’t want to die. She didn’t deserve to die.
And yet, it felt inevitable.
“Lily!”
Just when she thought John was going to break her neck and toss her over the railing, the stairwell door burst open again–and James came striding in.
He caught sight of Lily–most of her body already past the edge of the railing–and his heart nearly stopped.
Normally calm and composed, he actually lost his cool for once.
His eyes burned with fury. In a blur of motion, he shot forward and drove his fist squarely into John’s face. At the same time, his other arm wrapped tightly around Lily’s waist, pulling her securely into his embrace. The sheer terror of what could’ve happened still gripped him like a vice. Even with her safely in his arms, he couldn’t shake the fear.
Just moments ago, John had been tightening his grip, and Lily had truly believed she was going to die. She hadn’t expected James to appear out of nowhere and drag her back from the edge of hell.
In that instant, it was as if the world around her disappeared. The only thing she could see, the only thing she could feel–was James.
Earlier, when they’d hurt her, when she’d been cornered, all she felt was fury, fear, and injustice.
