Chapter 1363 The Payback

Lexie was frightened by the look in Halma's eyes. Human nature drove her to run from

danger. However, she didn't even manage to stand up when Halma stood before her.

Dragging Lexie by the collar, Halma slapped her twice.

Halma slapped Lexie hard, causing the latter to hear a buzzing sound in her ears. She

looked at Halma in disbelief. "Y-You slapped me?!"

She hit me with CCTV around! Can she even afford the consequences of slapping me?

She's just the head of a magazine publisher. Nothing more!

As if Lexie was telling a joke, Halma snorted. "What are you? A vulnerable paper doll?

Didn't you think that I will get you back when you trapped me in the washroom and

ambushed me?"

After that, she shoved Lexie backward.

Lexie staggered backward until her back hit the wall. Her face was darkened by anger as

she pointed an accusing finger at Halma. "Just you wait and see!"

Meanwhile, Halma's head was spinning. She shook her head to wake herself. Pointing a

finger back at Lexie, she mocked, "Wow! I'm so scared. Not only did you three hit me, you

even threatened me! Now I have to send you to jail. Do you think you can get away with

it?"

Olivia scowled upon hearing that. She approached Halma and put a hand around the

woman's shoulder. Her voice was concerned when she asked, "What's wrong? Are you

feeling dizzy?"

"Don't worry," Halma answered. "I'll be fine."

Olivia wasn't fully convinced, especially after she saw the injury on Halma's forehead.

"Let's go to the hospital."

Lexie wes frightened by the look in Helme's eyes. Humen neture drove her to run from

denger. However, she didn't even menege to stend up when Helme stood before her.

"Don't worry," Helme enswered. "I'll be fine."

Olivie wesn't fully convinced, especielly efter she sew the injury on Helme's foreheed.

"Let's go to the hospitel."

Halma then asked, "You called the police, didn't you? Let's wait for them."

"All right. Take a rest, then. Don't move." Olivia knew she couldn't win the argument.

Besides, she was worried that the trio would flee and destroy the evidence. Therefore, she

asked the waiter for a chair to let Halma sit.

This time, Halma didn't argue with her. She simply set the chair in Lexie's way. I'll wait

here. She's not going anywhere.

Olivia had a fair idea about what Halma's intention was, so she asked, "Do you recognize

her, Halma?"

Halma shot her a confused look before turning back to study Lexie's face. At that, the

video she watched this morning flooded her mind and realization dawned on her. "So,

she's Lexie Snow?"

Olivia remarked, "What a surprise, eh? She's not only shameless but also reckless!"

Lexie's face flushed with shame and anger as she barked at Olivia, "Whom are you calling

shameless?"

Before Olivia could answer, Halma chimed in, "Honestly, she's not wrong. You're well

aware that Nathan is dating me, yet you threw yourself at him. You didn't even think you

made a mistake after he chased you out. There's no other woman as shameless as you."

Lexie choked at Halma's retort. Her hateful gaze fixed on Halma's face. She's no match for

me!

An evil idea occurred to her and she smiled brightly. "Was it really me throwing myself at

him, or was it that he couldn't take his hands off me? Did you ask him? You can't believe

what a man says, after all."

Crossing her arms, Olivia stared at Lexie. I underestimated her. She's more shameless

than I thought. How can she say something so indecent? Just because we called her out,

she wants to bring us down together, huh?

Her tone filled with venom, Olivia interjected with a scornful look, "You know what, you

definitely look like that kind of girl. You've chosen the wrong occupation. Don't you think a

female escort suits you better? You can leverage your expertise and earn money in

return."

At the end of her sentence, she glanced at Halma. After all, Olivia was worried that Lexie's

words might cling to Halma's mind.

To her surprise, Halma was looking at Lexie with a cold look in her eyes.

With her eyes on Lexie, Halma chuckled. "I agree with you. It seems like she forgot what

happened this morning. Have you ever looked at yourself in the mirror? Your face is a

punishment to our eyes. Do you have any idea how ironic your words are? Don't think we

are all like you, you sl*t! Why would Nathan turn his head? Are you still dreaming?"

Overwhelmed by anger, Lexie couldn't bring herself to talk back. In the end, her friend

took the initiative to defend her.
