Chapter 1161
Chloe gave a cold, sarcastic laugh. Hoping for a shred of remorse from her was like looking for a needle in a haystack.
The pain she was in had become so numbing that when Wendy saw Chloe, she gathered herself up with great struggle. Her eyes were fixated on Chloe, reddened with rage.
Everyone’s gazes were glued to her, uncertain about her next move.
“Chloe…” Her voice was weak but there was a notable effort behind it.
Upon hearing this, Chloe’s smirk broadened.
Her smirk, however, made everyone else feel awkward. They didn’t know whether Wendy had been hypocritical towards Chloe before, but the fact that she had just taken the initiative to swing a whip towards Chloe in the arena was proof enough of how much she hated Chloe deep down.
If she harbored such hatred, her previous kindness to Chloe seemed hypocritical and fake now.
Wendy’s face crumpled with embarrassment. All her honesty was a negation of the past. She just couldn’t pretend anymore; even if she wanted to, it was impossible.
In the past, she may have been insincere, but it was her way of getting closer to Damon. Even if it meant just a few more encounters, it was worth it.
As long as she had a chance to appear in front of Damon, he would eventually see how good she was, that she was better than Chloe.
But now she had cut off that path herself. From the moment she swung her whip at Chloe on the racetrack, it was clear that she had completely severed ties with Chloe.
Everyone knew they were done.
She scoffed. Maybe it was better this way. She hated her; she never wanted to hide it.
Each time she saw her and had to hypocritically call her in a friendly way, even she felt nauseous. She glared at her, clenching her fists so hard that it looked like her bones might pop out. “I won’t forgive you. Everything I suffered today, I’ll make you suffer one day!”
She roared out the last part with all her might. That feeling of resentment, even though she didn’t have much strength at the time, was deeply felt by everyone present.
A gunshot resounded suddenly.
Everyone jerked in response. Even Chloe was startled.
“Are you out of your mind?!”
Presley’s voice boomed, echoing through the shooting range. Everyone looked over in that direction. They saw Presley just set down the cane in his hand, his whole body swaying, his face turning pale. The person he had just hit with the cane was none other than Damon.
Everyone then slowly turned to look at Damon, who was coolly holding a gun, the barrel still smoking. The bullet that had just missed Wendy was undoubtedly fired from his
gun.
Everyone stared in shock. Wendy was trembling violently, her gaze fixed on the bullet near her foot. She looked up at Damon with a mixture of astonishment and shock.
“Damon…” She murmured, her lips trembling too much to form words.
No one could comprehend her feelings right now, but seeing her in such a state, they couldn’t help but feel a pang of sympathy.
Everyone knew how Wendy felt about Damon! To be pointed at with a gun by the person you loved, it was a feeling beyond comprehension.
“Damon!” It took Elizabeth a while to react, and she rushed over to grab Damon’s arm. “What the hell are you doing?!”
Damon’s hand was aching from the cane, but he didn’t show any sign of pain. “If she wants to die, why shouldn’t I oblige?“.
Wendy thought she wouldn’t cry for a while, but Damon’s words triggered a flood of tears.
“You… want to kill me?” She finally managed to croak out, her voice almost a whisper.
Damon coldly looked at her, “What do you think?”
“Why?”
“You’re asking me?”
“It was her idea to race!” Wendy suddenly screamed, “She said there were no rules! She said anything goes during the race! She deliberately provoked me! Look, look… these wounds on me, she caused them!”
Everyone was silent.
Elizabeth couldn’t help but respond to Wendy’s hysterics, “Even without rules, no one would think of using a whip on another person! Wendy, this isn’t just a race, it’s a reflection of your character! Including that little girl just now, what did she do to deserve being whipped off her horse?!”
“She was blocking my way!”
Chloe had been scared just now when Damon almost killed Wendy for her, but now, hearing Wendy’s words, her heart raced. Her anger was once again ignited.
Wendy continued to shout, “If she hadn’t appeared, I might not have lost! Hitting her was letting her off easy!”
“You’re nothing but a lunatic!”
Chloe held back from slapping this woman who was already bruised and battered, but in the end, she couldn’t resist. She raised her hand and slapped Wendy’s face.
Wendy’s face was knocked aside, and the pain in her face seemed to awaken all the pain in her body, making it unbearable.
“Chloe!” Wendy glared at Chloe, her face twisted in a horrifying grimace.
“You can’t beat me!” Chloe cut her off coldly, her voice piercing like a thousand icy shards.
She slightly lifted her chin, standing tall. Despite her tall and slender figure, she seemed to be filled with a powerful energy, exuding a cold and dominant aura that was truly imposing.
“What did you say?!”
“I said, you will never beat me! Not this time, not next time, not ever! You will always be a loser in my hands! Don’t say you’ll let me go, that you’ll stop bothering me! Remember, I won’t let you go! From now on, whatever you want, I’ll snatch it away! Whatever you’re proud of, I’ll trample it underfoot!”
