Ambushed (7)

After a moment of silence, Veronica gave an enraged cry before looking like she was about to charge out at Yasmin's body.

When I heard this, I snapped back out of my daze and immediately grabbed her hand to stop her.

Seeing that I was the one that stopped her, Veronica looked at me with a hurt look and said, "Let me go."

I shook my head as I simply said, "No."

The hurt look on Veronica's face became even stronger when she heard this. She bit her lip as she said, "Do you not care about what happened to her at all?"

But then after a pause, she added, "No, you never got along…so you shouldn't care about what happened to her in the first place."

It was clear that she was emotionally distressed, but I couldn't help feeling hurt when she said this.

However, this also told me just how close she was with Yasmin.
