Chapter 117

Claire's eyes blazed with fury as she glared at the driver in front of her. "Move," she demanded, enunciating each word with icy precision.

Yet, the driver acted as though he hadn't heard her. His eyes were full of disdain, and a smirk tugged at the corner of his lips. To him, Claire was nothing more than an annoyance. He looked her up and down with a sneer, and in a show of disrespect, he sniffed dismissively, not even bothering to budge.

Claire's anger flared like a wildfire. "I said, move!" Her voice rose sharply, tinged with a hint of hysteria. She reached out, pushing against him in frustration. But the driver was built like a mountain, solid and unyielding. Claire might as well have been pushing against a brick wall for all the good it did.

"Smack!" The slap landed squarely on May's face, sending her sprawling to the ground like a leaf in the wind.
