"You're worse than an animal! I... I'll kill you!"
Verna Golding was startled for a moment, then she exploded with fury. Like a lioness, she pounced on Storm Xavier, pummeling the beast with both fists. 'How dare he try to harm my son? I'm going to kill this animal!'
"Even a vicious tiger won't eat its own cubs, but you want to harm your own son! You're more vicious than any tiger! I'll kill you first, and if I have to, I'll pay for it with my own life!"
Verna Golding's plain face turned ruthless as her hands tightened around Storm Xavier's neck. She squeezed harder and harder. Storm Xavier's eyes rolled back in his head, his breathing growing faint. He was filled with regret.
'If I'd known this ugly hag was a psycho, I wouldn't have said all that to provoke her.'
His vision blackened. At that moment, Storm Xavier desperately hoped the Old Madam and Clayton Xavier would return quickly, but he saw no sign of a savior before he passed out.
