Capítulo 121: ~Hellbound~

Ishi couldn't resist sharing her thoughts with Nikita, muttering quietly, "Why does that chick always get the better one?"

Nikita, her jaw tight with unease, replied, "Anyway, Elena, I've come to ask about Paul. He hasn't shown up for classes in the last few days. What happened to him?"

"I'm not sure," I responded calmly, refusing to be drawn into her provocation.

However, Nikita persisted; her words were designed to hit a nerve. "Oh, I see now you have a husband, so you've forgotten about the previous one, right?" She taunted, her voice dripping with sarcasm. Nikita's taunting words, laden with sarcasm, didn't elicit an emotional response from me.

Derek, protective and steadfast, couldn't stand by and let Nikita's words go unchallenged. His reaction was immediate and fierce. "Girl, watch your language," he warned her, his tone firm as he fixed his gaze on Nikita.
