As before, she was being unabashedly clingy around him; she only tightened her tentacle-like grip on his arm when he tried to shake her off.
The veins on Devin’s temples pulsed amidst his trepidation. That was when a white silhouette arrived at their side.
That figure stopped before them while they tussled away and pulled Sabrina away from the man without warning. She then sent one tight slap across Sabrina’s face.
Slap!
Its crisp sound reverberated throughout the bar and turned it deathly silent.
Sabrina mentally blanked out from that backhand and stayed that way for a long time.
Even Devin was dumbstruck for a moment. His eyes then widened when he recognized who the newcomer was.
He had not had the opportunity to speak before that figure in white started to berate Sabrina. “Who gave you permission to pester my fiancé like that, you shameless slut? Who the hell do you think you are? How dare you consider yourself fit enough for him?”
Time seemingly came to a standstill for Sabrina. Upon hearing the woman’s words, Sabrina turned and gave her a ferocious kick.
“Ah!” shrieked Shanae as she was ejected like a cannonball.
Everyone was dumbstruck by what unfolded before them. Devin, too, was so stunned that even his basic cognitive functions seemed to have deserted him.
Could that damned woman get any more violent than that?
“What did you just call me? Huh? I dare you to repeat that to my face!”
Upon seeing Shanae sprawling on the floor like a dead stray, the still-seething Sabrina went up to her and drove the heel of her stiletto right into Shanae’s face.
“Ahhh!”
Not only did Shanae wail in anguish, but those who had come to throw a birthday bash for her also covered their mouths and gasped. Never before had they encountered such a belligerent woman!
“You ought to know that I have never in my life had anyone call me shameless or dared lay a hand on me. You really have the guts, huh?”
With eyes bloodshot, Sabrina drove her foot down forcefully.
To be honest, Sabrina genuinely had no qualms about killing anyone, but the man behind her suddenly strode over and reached out to grab hold of her. He was looking very stern.
“What do you think you’re doing, Sabrina? Get your foot off her.”
Sabrina then turned her head around to look at him.
In the midst of her rampage just now, she seemed to recall that Shanae spoke of Devin as her fiancé. That was also what seemed to have triggered her.
Fiancé? Since when did he have a fiancée?
