Chapter 393
After all, even if someone got killed, it wasn't their problem.
Seeing this, Morgan knew it was the right time, so he stepped forward.
"Hey, Lily, are you okay? Are you feeling better now? Did you get it off your chest? He's really eating his words now that you've shown him how it feels. Leave the rest to me. I'll handle it from here!" Morgan said firmly, acting like he was really concerned about the situation.
"Fine. But remember to make him pay a heavy price!" Lily snapped back, gritting her teeth as she glared at Logan. It was as if she wanted to peel his skin off.
"I'll make sure he does," Morgan replied, finally finding an excuse to grab Logan and drag him out.
He was eager to get away, afraid that something might go wrong if they stayed too long.
Soon, the two of them disappeared from view, leaving only Lily, still fuming in place.
But by now, no one else seemed to care.
The crowd had quietly dispersed, not wanting to stick around for the drama.
"What do we do now? Should we leave?" Christina whispered.
Even though the photos weren't of her, she couldn't shake the feeling of unease.
She couldn't help but wonder what would happen if it had been her.
"No need. Why should we leave? The photos weren't of us, so we'll just keep taking ours! I'll stick around to keep an eye on things. Don't worry," Hayden said seriously, his tone firm.
"Okay." Christina felt a bit lighter at his words. It felt nice to be protected. It gave her a sense of security.
"Exactly. We're all here, so who's gonna mess with you? And besides, where there's nothing to poke at, trouble won't come looking for you. If we just mind our own business, why would anything happen? Right, Hayden?"
Jenny's voice was loud, almost like she was trying to make sure Lily heard her.
She remembered how the Sterling family had treated Hayden. Now, she was finally getting a chance to fight back.
"Ugh, you little troublemaker!" Hayden sighed, clearly helpless.
It seemed like Jenny was almost hoping for things to get worse. She just couldn't resist poking the hornet's nest.
"You! Who were you talking about just now? What do you mean, 'when there's nothing to poke at, trouble won't come looking for you?'" Lily spun around, her face twisted in rage, eyes burning with hostility.
She clenched her fists, ready to take a swing at Jenny.
"I wasn't talking about anyone. I didn't name any names. And, didn't you just say that yourself? I'm just repeating it. Is that a problem? Didn't you say that it was right? Oh wow, is it possible that the Sterling family ever makes mistakes?"
Jenny couldn't help but burst out laughing, clearly enjoying herself. She was using this moment to get back at Lily and the whole Sterling family.
The things that they had done recently were totally disgusting. She wasn't going to pass up this chance to rub it in.
"Jenny..." Christina bit her lip, touched by her boldness. She thought that Jenny was causing trouble in order to stand up for her.
Hayden sighed again, realizing that Jenny was serious about pushing things to the limit.
She was definitely trying to make things explode.
Finally, Lily couldn't hold it in anymore.
Her anger, already at a boiling point, reached its peak when Jenny kept mocking her.
"You! I'm gonna tear that mouth of yours apart!" Lily lunged at Jenny, raising her hand to slap her across the face.
