Chapter 110 Chapter 110: In the blink of an eye, Khloe delivered a swift kick, sending Dorothy flying several meters before she crashed to the floor with a thud.
Dorothy's shrill screams filled the room as she struggled to her feet, her mouth spewing venomous curses.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBut before she could get another word out, a cold, small handgun was pressed firmly against her temple, silencing her immediately.
"Say one more word, and I'll end you right here," Khloe's voice was icily detached, carrying the weight of a death sentence from the underworld.
Dorothy froze, her body going rigid in shock, her mouth hanging open in disbelief. A strangled, breathless sound escaped from her throat, but no words followed.
The onlookers were just as shocked by the unexpected turn of events, holding their breath as the tension in the room thickened, suffocating the air.
Dorothy's outburst had already worn the officers' patience thin, their irritation plainly etched on their faces. However, they saw no fault in Khloe's actions, as it was clear to everyone that Dorothy had been the aggressor, making Khloe's self-defense fully justified. Under the law, Khloe had every right to take lethal action if necessary. Eric knew this all too well, which explained his calculated decision to remain on the sidelines. He knew Khloe wasn't capable of taking a life; it was just a warning.
Eric's eyes lingered on Khloe, a swirl of emotions flickering within them. She had changed a lot.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEric blurted out, "Khloe, how did you beclike this?" "This is all thanks to you," Khloe replied coldly, casting him a disdainful glance.
Eventually, it was Sloane who stepped forward to drag Dorothy away from the tense standoff. It was clear to everyone now that Khloe held a deep-seated resentment towards the Evans family. Staying on her good side seemed like the only wise move.
Stay connected galnovsBaker fixed Sloane with a commanding look. "You gave your word earlier, Sloane. It's tto honor it and step down as heiress." Another parent chimed in, "If you really care about your classmates, prove it by making this sacrifice." Resentment flickered in Sloane's eyes. After a tense silence, as if battling with herself, she managed to say, "Khloe, you know as well as I do that the decision isn't solely mine to make." Khloe let out a derisive laugh. “In that case, your words hold no weight." She was growing impatient. She had already spent too much there, and Henrik would be arriving shortly.
She had no intention of lingering any longer. Leaving with Henrik mattered far more than entertaining these people. She cut straight to the point. "If you won't agree, then there's nothing left to discuss. Let them deal with prison and the stain of a criminal record." "Khloe, don't push me! I've already told you I won't meddle with Genesis Company. You've stolen my role, and now you're harassing my friends!" Sloane yelled, her anger flaring as her voice grew louder. "Are you really still bitter about Eric and me? It was you who cheated first, and that's why the Watson family turned their back on you. Khloe, stop being so stubborn!" Just then, a calm and steady voice broke through from behind. "I can confirm that Khloe never cheated, and the Watson family has no grievances with her."
Eric and Sloane froze, momentarily caught off guard. Sloane's gazem quickly turned to the source of the voice. Clinton took a step forward, a phone held firmly in his hand.
Eric's expression changed ever so slightly as he laid eyes on Clinton Sensing trouble, Eric tried to take control, his tone sharp. "Clinton, this is my issue. Keep your distance!"
Clinton, undeterred, walked past Eric, his gaze softening as it landed om questill striking face. A Khloe's tired but stilded om fleeting glimmer of sympathy passed through his eyes. mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliIofifl0&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1
