Lola Hussey was pushed away by Sophia Bell, her eyes fixed on Sophia's reddened neck.
She had acted rashly, trying to help out of a heated impulse.
She wasn't even fully prepared, which is why people from Pine Blossom Hall pulled out halfway, and she was seen as a joke.
When James Harrison slapped Lola earlier, she wasn't afraid at all. But when Sophia pushed her away, Lola took the slap instead.
Lola felt extremely guilty.
If she didn't intervene, Sophia wouldn't have to suffer like this.
But if she didn't intervene, Sophia would only become more corrupt. Why should she care about such a thing with a Lady Bountiful attitude?
But she intervened already, hadn't she?
Since she had intervened, she might as well see it through.
So Lola rushed up, regardless of the consequences, and kicked James Harrison.
