Kelly's legs turned to jelly from fear, but she didn't dare look back, she just ran forward.
The footsteps behind her grew louder and closer.
Suddenly,
a hand grabbed her arm.
She turned her head.
"You wretch! How dare you crash the event and stir up trouble? I won't let you off!" Lisa slapped her hard across the face, cursing furiously.
For such an important gathering, and she had the nerve to cause a scene? If Lisa didn't hit her, she'd be letting Claire down!
Originally, Lisa had been too busy tonight to deal with her, and if Kelly had left a bit earlier, she would've escaped unscathed. But no, greedy for dessert, she stayed for a third helping, giving Lisa the perfect opportunity to settle the score.
"Ah!" Kelly cried out in pain, her vision going black as she clutched her face.
"Let me make this clear. If you dare to make trouble again, I'll have you hauled to the police station. Try me if you don't believe it." Lisa kicked her once more and snapped, "Get lost."
