His Destructive, Toxic Love novel Chapter 718

The whole restaurant was caught in a stunned silence, eyes glued to the commotion unfolding.

It was Daniel, ruthlessly dragging Kate out by her hair. She was a bloody mess, leaving a crimson trail in her wake. Kate fought desperately, hoping against hope that someone would step in and help her.

“Help! He's going to kill me…”

“Someone, please, I'm begging you…”

Her cries echoed, but whether out of shock or fear of getting involved, everyone just sat there, frozen, not lifting a finger.

Eliza's eyes landed on Allysha, sitting not too far away. Given how close Allysha and Kate were, surely she wouldn’t just sit there and do nothing, right?

Yet…

Allysha barely glanced up, then went back to her meal, as if Kate was just another stranger.

“I don’t get it. Aren’t Allysha and Kate best friends? Why isn’t she doing anything to help?” Eliza mused, baffled.

Friendships between women shouldn’t be so heartless.

Eliza didn’t understand. But Casper did.

In the cutthroat world of showbiz, friendships like Allysha and Kate's often had strings attached. If Allysha jumped in, the media or someone with a hidden agenda might catch wind, sparking rumors and scandals. She knew all too well that while rumors spread like wildfire, the truth struggled to catch up.

For the sake of her own career, Allysha wouldn’t risk it.

“Just fair-weather friends,” Casper remarked.

Eliza was speechless.

Soon enough, Daniel dragged Kate out of the hotel. And just like that, she was gone.

In the blink of an eye, the restaurant buzzed back to life. People resumed their chatter and laughter, as if none of it had ever happened.
