Memories Of The Night

Ever so proud, she raises her hand to hit Farrah. "What gives you the right to judge me, b.i.t.c.h!"

Farrah is just a nurse, not to mention an orphan like Katrina. She grew up in an orphanage without a father or a mother. Sophie is p.i.s.sed off to hear Farrah belittle her like this.

Caught off guard, Farrah is completely defenseless and nearly gets slapped by Sophie.

But Katrina is quick to step in front of Farrah and grab Sophie"s wrist.

Until now, Katrina never fought back against Sophie, no matter how horrible Sophie treated her. But Farrah has always helped her and defended her against Sophie"s abuse.

Katrina has always been polite to Sophie, but now Sophie wants to attack Farrah. She can"t sit back and do nothing this time.

Keeping a firm grip on Sophie"s wrist, Katrina shoots her an even look and says, "Sophie, haven"t you done enough? Have you had enough fun?

"If you"re done, then please leave us alone. We have other things to do; we don"t have time to waste with you. Before you lose your temper and attack us, think of the consequences carefully. This time, I"m not letting you go."

Everything that Sophie ever did to her is still fresh in Katrina"s mind. But she endured it all to repay Carl"s upbringing. But if Sophie will actually dare to lay a hand on Farrah just because Farrah is defending her, Katrina will pay Sophie back in kind for everything right now.

At Katrina"s words, Sophie retreats. She is on her own, while Katrina and Farrah have strength in numbers. Sophie also has to admit that she can"t handle Katrina on even ground. Adding Farrah to the mix, she will definitely lose.

To save face and prevent further embarra.s.sment, Sophie has no choice but to bear the displeasure in her heart.

"Who wants to fight with savages like you? Only losers who hit rock bottom would do such a thing! You deserve to be losers all your life!" Sophie spits. Whirling around, she storms out without another look.

Katrina scoffs at Sophie"s words. Sophie was the one who came out of nowhere to pick a fight. She was the one who started hurling insults and even moved to attack Farrah, not to mention the countless times that Sophie attacked someone unprovoked.

If poor people who pick fights are savages, then rich people who pick fights are animals. Wealthy people with double standards are pathetic. All they have is a little money to show off, nothing else.

As soon as Sophie leaves, Farrah turns to gush at Katrina with an adoring look in her eyes. "Katrina, you were so cool just now!"

Keeping a tight grip on Sophie"s wrist, Katrina stared Sophie down with an expressionless look on her face as she threatened her.

Farrah is used to seeing Katrina gentle and sweet. Suddenly seeing her bare her claws like that was surprising. She didn"t know that Katrina could be so aggressive.

Since Farrah is a few years older than Katrina, she always looks out for her. This is the first time for her to feel Katrina"s protection. It"s a rea.s.suring feeling.

Katrina smiles at Farrah"s praise. She understands Farrah"s surprise. After all, she only shows her fierce side to criminals and other bad people, always remaining gentle in front of her close friends. "Well, I am an officer of the law," she points out.

Suddenly remembering Sophie"s news, Farrah worries for Katrina. "Katrina, now that it"s over, you will both go back to your own lives."

Knowing that Farrah is thinking about Marcellus" new girlfriend, Katrina smiles. Her best friend must be worried about how the news will affect her.

With a rea.s.suring smile, she says, "Farrah, I"m fine."

Although the news is giving her inexplicable feelings, Katrina knows that this is a good thing for both her and Marcellus.

Farah lets out a sigh. "I took you out to go shopping to cheer you up, but I never imagined we would run into that b.i.t.c.h, Sophie! Katrina, let"s go eat something to cheer up!"

"Okay!" Katrina readily agrees.

There are a lot of restaurants outside the mall. It remembers that one of Katrina"s favorite restaurants is nearby, Farrah perks up.

"Let"s go to that restaurant we used to go to! It"s been a while since I last had their grilled fish. Remember that restaurant, Katrina? Their grilled fish is your favorite!" Farrah exclaims, pulling Katrina in the direction of the restaurant.

After ordering the dishes, Farrah and Katrina chat about funny stories from Farrah"s s.h.i.+ft at the hospital while waiting for their food to be served.

Soon, the waiter brings a large dish of grilled fish. "Excuse me, miss. The plate is hot."

Katrina moves the plates and her phone away to make room for the dish. As she raises her head, she inadvertently sees a familiar figure nearby.

Guided by a waiter, Marcellus is walking in their direction with a girl beside him. Katrina recognizes the girl as the same woman who ran out of Marcellus" hospital room the last time she visited him.

It seems Marcellus has really moved on. Katrina is not that surprised to see that his new girlfriend is Irene Harrison, the heiress of the Harrison family. She is a perfect match for Marcellus, not to mention Claire likes her very much.

Unfortunately, Marcellus" eyes meet Katrina"s. The encounter catches each other off guard.

After staring at each other for a couple of seconds, Marcellus suddenly takes Irene"s hand.

Feeling the warmth of Marcellus" palm, Irene looks at him in disbelief.

Although Marcellus promised to be responsible for her since their one-night stand, he has always been cold to her ever since. This is the first time that he touches her again. Even when she takes the initiative to hold his hand, he would always pull away quickly.

Now that Marcellus is holding her hand himself, Irene can"t help wondering if he"s finally starting to like her.
