The True Heiress: Legend Mode novel Chapter 41

That sudden, explosive curse made Babur feel a rush of vindication. If he could, he would have kicked the guy himself.

Rhiannon saw Juno walk in, secretly cursing her as brainless for taking such a hardline stance.

It was one thing to be arrogant on a normal day, but right now, she had zero backing—why was she picking a fight with them?

Manny straightened up, furiously slamming his grapes onto the floor. He whipped around with a vicious glare, only to immediately receive a stinging slap across the face from Juno.

"What are you getting so fired up about?"

The slap echoed with a crisp, resonant smack.

Manny was stunned senseless. For a moment, his brain couldn't process what had just happened.

The remaining guys had been about to step forward, but seeing this, they stopped dead in their tracks.

Manny puffed out his chest. "Yeah, I did! You want me to beat you up just like him?!"

Without another word, Juno slapped him again. "I wouldn't even dare beat him like that, and you did?"

Babur, still in the hospital bed, stayed quiet. The hell she wouldn't! Who was it that literally kicked him out of his wheelchair just a little while ago!
