Susan Saxton's eyes were bloodshot with hatred and ferocity, traces of blood on her cheeks, making her disheveled appearance all the more detestable.
Seeing Susan pounce, Ariel Morris took two steps back to avoid the assault and, in the moment Susan struck, seized her wrist, moved in close, and elbowed her hard in the abdomen.
Pain shot through her, Susan hunched over, her face pale, gritting her teeth as she glared angrily at Ariel Morris.
Ariel Morris looked at Susan coldly, her eyes filled with an icy light.
Only then did the officers behind Susan react, moving quickly to restrain the injured Susan, scolding her: "Be quiet! Do you hear me?! How dare you launch a surprise attack!!"
Ariel Morris glanced at Susan, her mind set on finding Arlo Seys, she had no desire to entangle with Susan further, and said coldly to her: "You better pray I find Arlo today! Otherwise, Susan, I'll come to the precinct tonight to tear you apart!!"
