Thanks to his quick reflexes, Lucian was able to shield Roxanne behind him and grab Christina by the throat at the same time.
His long arms stopped Christina from getting any closer, so she could only claw helplessly at the air, flailing her limbs while cursing under her breath.
With a gentle shove, Lucian sent her tumbling backward and falling to the floor.
“I hate you, Lucian! I hate you so much! How could you treat me like this, Lucian? Have you no heart? Have you no conscience?” she shrieked at the top of her voice.
Even Madilyn was a little shocked by Christina's sudden hysterical outburst. She was not expecting her to lash out like that.
“Have you lost your mind, Christina?” she shouted angrily.
“Hahaha! Yes, I have! I'm madly in love with you, Lucian! I love you so much that I would cut my heart out for you, but... I'm filthy now... Why would you be so cruel to me, Lucian? My family is ruined! You're just his ex-wife, Roxanne! I'm his fiancée! How dare you steal him from me? I will never forgive you, not even in death!”
As Christina shrieked, her expression alternated between sadness, excitement, and anger, which showed just how unstable her mental state was.
She wasn't even looking at Lucian and Roxanne. Instead, her eyes were actually fixated on the walls and ceiling around her as she writhed about in agony.
She then started pulling at her hair and cupped her hands over her cheeks as she thrashed about violently, only to hit her head on the concrete wall next to her a few seconds later.
The loud noise sent shivers down Madilyn's spine.
“What has gotten into her? Has she gone crazy?” Madilyn was clearly frightened by Christina's actions.
The look in Roxanne's eyes turned gloomy as she said, “She's unable to cope with the overwhelming shock, so her subconscious is creating illusions to help her escape from the pain. This may be a sign of hysteria.”
Christina continued slamming her head against the wall with an increasing amount of force until blood came spurting out of her head.
