Chapter 370
The stall owner was quick and efficient, mixing various ingredients and tossing them, finally adding a generous handful of cilantro. Just looking at it was enough to make anyone’s mouth
water.
Carmen paid, grabbed the food, and headed back home.
Halfway there, she saw a familiar figure blocking her the pervert Calvin.
Her face instantly turned cold, and she tried to keep her distance and walk around him, but he moved to block her way, grinning as he stepped forward.
“Carmen, that’s a lot of delicious food you bought there. When will I get to taste the food your cook for me? I’d be the happiest man alive.”
“Get lost!”
Goosebumps rose on her skin. She would have loved to slap this shameless garbage if she hadn’t held the food in both hands!
But he was the scoundrel who would laugh it off no matter what and even say something disgusting like, “Fighting between men and women is showing affection.”
Carmen didn’t want to let him ruin her mood, so she ignored him.
But Calvin, who clearly had no sense, stepped up and tried to grab her hand, saying, “Carmen, I’ve been pursuing you for so long. You can’t just keep ignoring me, can you?”
She felt nauseous and immediately shook off his hand.
Was this what he called pursuit?
Spreading rumors about her, spying on her from the shadows, and even watching as she almost jumped off the roof–was this his idea of pursuit“?
If only he had been normal and pursued her properly, she could at least have given him basic respect even if she didn’t like him..
But now, she only found him revolting!
She coldly said, “If you don’t move, I’ll call the police.”
He hesitated momentarily but eventually stepped aside, though he kept following her, showering her with sweet words.
She walked as fast as she could, eager to shake him off.
Just as she was about to enter the building, Calvin suddenly stopped and threateningly said, ” Carmen, I’m giving you one last chance. If you agree to be my woman,
I’ll tell you something.
about your good friend.
“But if you reject me again, I guarantee your friend… will die!”
He smiled triumphantly.
This statement made Carmen stop in her tracks.
She whipped around, threw the food to the ground, and rushed toward Calvin, grabbing his collar with both hands. Her delicate face twisted in fury, and her eyes were filled with
murderous intent.
“You dare touch my friend? I’ll kill you!”
Her eyes were bloodshot, not from sorrow but from rage.
She could tolerate Calvin’s pestering, but his threat crossed the line!
The thought of him targeting Felicia made her furious. All her rationality evaporated, replaced by a surge of anger and a single thought rushing through her mind-“Kill him! Kill this
scourge!”
“Go to hell!”
In her hand was the small ball Felicia had given her for self–defense in case of danger. Inside, it was a toxic powder!
Carmen lost her composure, not caring that throwing the ball might poison her too.
Even if it killed her, she didn’t care–she would rather die with this scumbag.
With a scream, she was about to throw the ball when, at that very moment, two people walked into the building. It was Tom and Alyson.
To them, it looked like Carmen and Calvin were struggling, even hugging.
They were immediately furious!
Especially Tom, who rushed up and slapped her hard, knocking her to the ground. He shouted, “What are you doing with this kind of person? Are you shameless?”
