"What's wrong with being cocky? If you've got a problem, come fight Ms. Henderson yourself!"
Jamie taunted George with a smirk. She was not afraid anymore. If Yolanda could take down Donovan, what was there to worry about? Even if the Havaria Martial Arts Association got involved, the Shadow Clan had clearly been the ones who had started this.
Besides, she had always disliked George. This was her chance to rub it in. Without waiting for Yolanda's order, she had her people throw Donovan, George, and their group out. Since Donovan was unconscious and injured, the Shadow Clan members did not dare to linger and quickly drove him to a nearby hospital.
The evening's battle had practically destroyed the Hendersons' living room. It would need complete renovation before anyone could live there again. Yolanda didn't care, of course.
…
Julie went to the hospital looking for Winnie as George had asked. But Winnie seemed to be avoiding her and would not answer her calls anymore. Nothing was going right, and it was making her unstable.
Especially since arriving in Riverdale, she had not completed a single task for Boris. She had been ruining his plans instead. Going back to Creybia like this would be bad for her.
Agitated, she parked by the road and bought a pack of cigarettes from a convenience store. When she was back in her car, Julie stomped on the gas in frustration. But she suddenly realized something was wrong with the brakes.
Damn it! She had parked by the roadside earlier without much thought! It was too late by the time she realized what was happening. Her car spun out of control toward a planter, finally stopping when it hit a large tree.
Onlookers immediately called an ambulance. As they moved to save her, the car's fuel tank caught fire. Within seconds, they heard a boom as the sports car exploded.
