CHAPTER 377: CHAPTER 377: DO YOU EVEN DESERVE TO MAKE ME ARGUE WITH HIM?

"You..."

Crystal Joyce’s face turned ugly in an instant after getting scolded by Nancy Sutton, but then her eyes reddened, looking pitiful as if she was being bullied.

"I didn’t... Serena, your friend misunderstood me, I didn’t mean to ruin the relationship between you and Damian! I just see Damian as an older brother..."

Looking at her pitiful demeanor, Nancy felt even more disgusted, pointing at her nose and continued, "What are you pretending for? Don’t think we don’t know what you’re scheming in your heart. My Serena couldn’t be bothered with you, but I won’t let you off easily! Anyone who makes my Serena unhappy, I will make sure they never have a good day!"

Crystal Joyce’s expression became even darker under the scolding. Why was everyone siding with that bitch Serena Everett?!

But she could only endure it, still maintaining her delicate, pity-invoking appearance, saying tearfully, "Serena, you’ve really misunderstood me. I was just worried about Damian and took care of him a little, didn’t expect you would misunderstand us like this! Serena, nothing happened between us, please don’t get the wrong idea!"

Crystal kept saying not to misunderstand, yet she was emphasizing it repeatedly, making it easy for others to misunderstand.

Nancy Sutton, no longer able to hold back her anger, shouted deliberately, "Serena, don’t get angry! Otherwise, you fall into the trap of some shameless person. I believe Damian Quinn wouldn’t have such poor taste, he surely wouldn’t fancy someone like her!"

Damian Quinn’s loving gaze toward Serena was unmistakable. Before meeting Serena, he had never been close to women, no woman could approach him.

She simply didn’t believe that Damian Quinn would be bewitched by Crystal Joyce!

Serena certainly could see through her little tricks, her tone was quite nonchalant, clearly not taking it to heart.

"Nancy, don’t be angry, I know."

She naturally believed in Damian Quinn!

Nancy Sutton finally breathed a sigh of relief, holding Serena’s arm, "Serena, let’s go. Watching some unsavory person just makes me nauseous!"

Seeing them about to leave, Crystal Joyce bit her lip unwillingly, her gaze turning cold as she rushed to block their path.

"Serena, I don’t know why you all misunderstood me, I’ve never thought of taking Damian from you, I was just heartbroken seeing Damian so upset..."

Hearing those words, full of pretenses, Nancy Sutton impatiently pushed her away, "Get lost, aren’t you annoying!"

"Ah... it hurts!"

Crystal Joyce cried out in pain, being pushed to the ground, wearing a face full of suffering, her eyes brimming with tears, crying pitifully.

"Serena, if you don’t believe what I say, fine, but why push me?"

Looking at Crystal Joyce’s face filled with pain, Nancy Sutton felt speechless.

She barely used any strength, wouldn’t push someone down, yet Crystal fell heavily to the ground, clearly pretending!

This woman really had no shame!

Crystal Joyce’s eyes flickered, a malicious glint in her eyes, continuing to cry, "If you’re so unwilling to tolerate me, Serena, I’ll ask Damian to send me abroad, I just hope you and Damian don’t fight because of me!"

She didn’t believe that after saying this, Serena could still hold back her suspicion! She wanted to worsen the relationship between Serena and Damian Quinn!

But to Crystal Joyce’s surprise, Serena wasn’t angry, but rather lazily curled her lips and spoke slowly.

"Do you think you’re worth making us fight?"

The girl’s tone was indifferent but filled with strong sarcasm.

Crystal Joyce’s face changed instantly, deeper resentment in her heart, her sharp nails digging into her palm.

Did she really trust Damian Quinn that much? She had tried to sow discord, yet it was useless...

"Don’t play petty tricks on me."

Serena’s cold words pierced deep into Crystal Joyce’s heart, making her gnash her teeth in hatred.

"Miss Crystal..."

Silas hadn’t expected that in the brief time he was away, Crystal Joyce would be bullied like this. Furious, he quickly walked over to help her up.

"Miss Crystal, are you okay?"

"I... I’m fine."

Crystal Joyce leaned weakly against him, feigning fear as she shook her head, this weak demeanor looking even more pitiful.

Silas felt even more pity for her, glaring fiercely at Serena and her group, "Was it you who pushed Miss Crystal?"

"So what if I did?" Nancy Sutton raised her chin and huffed coldly, "I’m always straightforward, unlike some people who pretend to fall to gain sympathy!"

"I didn’t pretend to fall for sympathy..." Crystal Joyce immediately teared up, crying pitifully.

Nancy Sutton snorted coldly, "Still pretending here, truly disgusting!"

"Boo hoo... I didn’t..."

Crystal Joyce cried even harder, making Silas’s heart break, his gaze ominously falling on Nancy Sutton.

"Anyone who bullies Miss Crystal deserves to die!"

With those words, Silas suddenly struck, a fierce palm strike aimed at Nancy Sutton.

It was a lethal move; if it landed, she’d be dead or disabled.

Yet Serena acted faster, intercepting his attack mid-air.

"Dare to touch my people?"

Serena’s exceptionally beautiful eyes carried a chill that inexplicably instilled fear.

"Who gave you the guts."

With that, Silas was kicked away, like a kite with a broken string, crashing heavily to the ground.

"Ugh..."

Silas bore the brunt of the kick, spat a mouthful of blood, looking at Serena in disbelief.

He was a top fighter in The Shadow Guard Barracks, yet Serena, this woman, easily defeated him and inflicted severe injuries, showing her skills were far superior...

Unwillingly, Silas got up from the ground, wanting to charge again.

"Silas, no... don’t fight Serena!"

Crystal Joyce quickly grabbed his sleeve, pitifully stopping him.

She had already lost the protection of the Quinn Family; if Silas hurt Serena, Damian Quinn would never let her off...

She wanted to use Silas to get rid of that bitch Serena, but it had to be in secret, without any ties to her!

"Miss Crystal, they bullied you like this, I can’t let you suffer!"

Serena’s kick was merciless, nearly breaking his ribs, Silas endured the intense pain, glaring at Serena in hatred.

"I’m fine... don’t hurt Serena!" Crystal Joyce shook her head vigorously, "Serena didn’t push me on purpose, I don’t blame them!"

In any case, Silas mustn’t harm that bitch Serena now, otherwise Damian Quinn would definitely not spare her!

Silas regarded her intently, "Miss Crystal, you’re too kind for your own good, that’s why people bully you!"
