A Crazy Night (Nathaniel and Christina) novel Chapter 736

Chapter 736 Avenging Sebastian

Victoria couldn’t believe what she had just heard. She widened her eyes in shock, her face turning as pale as a sheet.

“What did you just say? Say that one more time!”

That was when Brenda realized she had said something she shouldn’t. Not wanting to look like a coward in front of Victoria, she decided to admit to her doings.

“You heard me! I hired someone to set Christina’s studio on fire! Now that her studio is no more, you’ll have to go back to managing your own studio! You’re the heiress of the Lesley family, so why would you give up on your position as a boss and work for someone else? You may not be ashamed of yourself, but I am! Christina had the audacity to show up at my house and threaten me. She thinks she can get away with anything simply because she married into the Hadley family, but I’m no pushover either! Anyway, she is responsible for your relationship with Sebastian, so she deserves to be taught a lesson!”

Victoria had never thought her mother would be the one who set fire to the studio. Her chest tightened with anger, and she found it a little hard to breathe.

“What you did is illegal! Do you know that two people have died in that fire of yours?”

The look on Brenda’s face changed when she heard that, and a sense of panic began to well up within her. “That’s impossible! I told them to clear the place before setting it on fire, and my men were there to keep an eye on things! There’s no way that fire would’ve killed anyone!”

Brenda was panicking so much that her mind was a mess, and she didn’t even know what to say anymore.

As for Victoria, she sank into despair and slumped weakly against the seat. There was a lifeless look in her eyes as she stared blankly at the scenery outside the window.

Brenda whipped out her phone and dialed a number, but it was no longer in service.

“What should I do, Victoria? I only wanted to teach Christina a lesson! I didn’t mean to get anyone killed!”

Brenda was already in a lot of trouble with the lawsuits she faced, so she couldn’t imagine what would happen if word were to get out about her hiring someone to set the studio on fire,

“Victoria, you and Christina are junior and senior, so could you please tell her to let this slide? I’ll agree to whatever request she has!”

Victoria shot her mother an icy-cold glare and replied with a sarcastic sneer, “She tried to be nice to you before, but you disrespected her and set her studio on fire. Now that you’ve gotten yourself in trouble, you expect her to just let this slide? What are you even going to say to her?”

“Christina is the one who started it! I wouldn’t have tried to teach her a lesson if she hadn’t messed with me! Victoria, are you seriously going to just sit by and watch me get taken away by the authorities?” Brenda protested stubbornly.

Victoria didn’t want her mother to g3

o to prison, but she couldn’t bring herself to betray Christina and the family of the deceased either.

She covered her face and cried in agony. “I don’t know! I don’t know what to do! Why must you guys force me to make such decisions?”

After taking some time to calm herself down, Brenda had returned to her usual domineering self by the

time the car pulled up inside the courtyard of the Lesley residence.

“Please escort Victoria to her room. Do not let her leave her room without my permission, and do not let anyone visit her either,” she told the butler.

Victoria looked up at her in shock. “Are you going to confine me?”
