Where Petals of Vengeance Bloom

Chapter 163

The car door was suddenly yanked open by Brian, and a blast of cold air swept inside, making Claire shrink back in fear.

Brian leaned forward to peer into the car at Claire, but before he could get a good look, Sean's fist connected squarely with his face.

Staggering back several steps before regaining his balance, Brian touched his mouth and saw bright red blood on his fingertips.

The Cole family was Cresthaven's elite, and people always greeted him with smiles. Never before had he been punched in the street.

Although he knew Sean was the heir to the influential Foster family of Northcrest City, and not someone to be trifled with, being publicly humiliated infuriated him beyond measure.

In a fit of rage, Brian lunged forward and landed a punch on Sean.

Sean, not one to back down, retaliated in kind.

Claire clung tightly to the car door, her knuckles white, as she watched Sean and Brian grapple with each other. The dull thuds of fists meeting flesh echoed in her mind.

Her heart raced with anxiety. It was all her fault; if it weren't for her, Mr. Foster wouldn't have been attacked.
