Chapter 1188 Lucy is Burning Up
Why was Lennon here?!
"Here for business," he curtly responded.
As they prepared to leave, Lennon walked past them. To everyone's surprise, Mandy, usually fiery, rushed up to him.
"Smack!" The sound echoed through the night.
Lennon staggered, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth. "Had enough?"
"It ain't finished yet!"
Gritting her teeth, Mandy prepared to charge forward. However, Cherise restrained her, holding Mandy's arm firmly but gently.
Glaring fiercely at Lennon, Mandy unleashed a torrent of emotions she had bottled up. "Listen, Lennon! I came to Yatesville to settle the score with you once and for all!"
"How casually you used to treat Lucy, huh?"
"Now she can't even pursue her dream of being a doctor, can't enjoy a summer day in shorts without her joints screaming on rainy days—all because of you!"
"And now you're all lovey-dovey with Violet, can't keep your hands off her! Have you got any compassion left?"
"Your precious Violet nearly took Lucy's life and her unborn child's four years ago!"
"Is this how you repay the woman who loves you?"
"You're worse than an animal!"
Lennon stood stoically, absorbing Mandy's accusations in silence.
Finally, he turned to her, his expression unreadable behind a mask of calm. "Are you quite finished?"
His unwavering demeanor only served to intensify Mandy's boiling anger!
Meeting Cherise and Lucy had brought immense joy to Mandy, who had few friends.
As she observed Cherise and Lucy pulling away, she felt a growing sense of isolation and helplessness consuming her.
