"It is just a game. Why are you kicking up a fuss?" April berated. "Anyway, you are the party's hostess. We do not need to be so obvious when it comes to certain issues, do we?"
April was blatantly hinting at Yvonne with her last question.
Overwhelmed by their accusations, Yvonne was so ashamed that her face was bright red.
"You are no longer a child. How can you act so impulsively?" Liam was very dissatisfied with how she acted.
Only an unruly little girl would act out of petty jealousy.
"We grew up together," Yvonne said as she stared at the three people criticizing her with bewildered eyes. "Why are you not on my side? Why are you instead biased toward Vania who you have just met?"
She then placed a hand on her chest as if her heart was in pain. "What did I do wrong? Why must you do this to me? I am only concerned about Hanson. I just did not want him to be condemned by public opinion."
Bryan looked at her, confused. "This is just a game. He will not be condemned for this. Yvonne, you are being way too serious about this." He really did not understand what was going through her head.
"Also, we are not biased toward anyone. We are simply acting according to the facts of the matter. You, on the other hand, went overboard." There was a dark look on April's face. This was supposed to be a fun gathering, yet it had been ruined by Yvonne's actions.
"Why are you treating me this way?" Yvonne looked really confused with a painful expression on her face.
"Ha." Vania finally snorted and said, "The lot Hanson drew wrote that he could do it with any woman he wanted to in the venue. Would you have been okay with the dare if he chose you?"
She stared straight into Yvonne's eyes, making Yvonne panic.
"He did not choose me though," she nervously stated.
"If he did, I would surely have gone along with it so that he would not be embarrassed."
She spoke so confidently that it was immediately obvious what kind of double standards she was operating when she stopped the kiss.
"Heh." Vania loudly sneered. "Did you hear that, everyone? As Hanson's girlfriend, kissing him means being condemned by the public. However, if Yvonne did it, it would be okay. Why would that be the case?"
Even though everyone was friends, they still found Yvonne's actions to be weird.
Those who were close to her knew of her crush on Hanson, but not even they dared to step forward to defend her.
"I just can't accept it," Yvonne whined in an attempt to play the victim, knowing she would not win the fight.
"You need therapy for that." Vania pulled out a card from her bag. "Here, I'll pay for your bill. If you can't find a good therapist, I can help you with that as well."
"You are the crazy woman here, Vania!" Yvonne flung the card away. "You should see a therapist instead."
Vania smirked. "Do not think I do not know what is on your mind. I have tolerated the many tricks you've pulled on me since the first time we met. Today, with everyone as my witness, let me be plain with you. Listen up now."
"What is it?" Yvonne narrowed her eyes at her, warning her to be careful with her words.
In spite of Yvonne's warning, Vania was not afraid of her at all. "Hanson Luke is mine. You stand no chance. If you wish to keep pulling childish tricks on me, I will not mind giving you a taste of what I am capable of."
"Is that a threat, Vania?" Yvonne puffed.
She was from the great Kepler family. There was no way she would be afraid of Vania.
"I always stick to my word." Vania was strong enough that she did not need to threaten anyone.
Unwilling to bow down before Vania, Yvonne said with an interrogating tone, "Why should he be yours only? We were childhood sweethearts. Why can't I like him?"
