Chelsea sneered in despair.
“I know. As of now, I can only let myself be hit and I can’t fight back. If I did, everything I have left now will be taken away by you.”
Chelsea’s words jolted Tammy’s memory. With Elliot and Jun lending their support for her, she was never going to let Chelsea off the hook!
She rushed up to Chelsea and gave her such a fast, tight slap that Chelsea did not even have the time to cover her ears! The slap caused Chelsea’s mask to fall off.
“You’re a maggot, Chelsea! You don’t want anyone to see your face, but that’s exactly what I’m going to do! You’ve got it coming for you! You’ll die the most miserable of deaths!” Tammy’s anger did not seem to decrease one bit and she raised her hand once more to vent out all the rage that she had in her.
Elliot watched coldly at one side without interfering. Jun held Tammy in his arms and turned her around.
“Tammy! We’re in a police station! You can’t beat her up here! She’ll get her punishment for sure! And besides, if anyone’s getting their revenge on her, it should be me! Can you please listen to me?!”
Tammy pursed her lips as two streams of hot tears trickled down her face.
She did not want to talk about it again and so she changed the topic.
“Why isn’t Avery here?”
“I didn’t allow her to come,” Elliot replied.
“Let’s head home. She’s worried about you.” Jun carried Tammy up and left the police station with Elliot.
Chelsea covered her hot face with her hands and watched them leave.
“Ms. Tierney, your mask.” Chelsea’s bodyguard handed her the mask.
Chelsea threw the mask away and said angrily, “There’s no point wearing it! I’m not going to wear it anymore! Everyone already knows how ugly I am anyway!”
That evening, Elliot brought Tammy to Avery’s house. Avery hugged Tammy as soon as they saw each other.
“I was too impulsive today, Avery,” Tammy said softly.
