“What’s the difference? She’s married too! Who do you think you are, deciding for her husband?”

When Julia heard “husband,” her eyes turned red right away.

Gilbert’s eyes widened. He covered her ears, but it was too late. Furious at her red eyes, he snapped, “You got no right to talk about her! Keep it up, and I’ll kick you out of Bode Villa butt-naked!”

Sherry clenched her fists, eyes red too. Five years of giving everything, just to get kicked out naked. She bit her lip. “Good riddance.”

Gilbert frowned. Sherry’s no match for Julia, and Julia hasn’t done a single thing wrong. Why won’t Sherry back down? Is it all because of this guy?

Julia cut him off first.

“Stop fighting-it’s all my fault. I’m useless.” Julia’s voice was soft and charming, stubborn but wronged, like she’d suffered a lot.

“That’s messed up! Bullying our hero and her friend? Go after them, and you’ll fight every big shot on this ship!”

“Yeah! They’re saving you, and you’re complaining? If they messed up, would you blame ’em? No one will help you if you fall later!”

“Total con artist!”

Lucas raised an eyebrow and stared at Julia hard.

He was nothing like the other guys-no awe in his eyes. Barely any guy could stay cold when seeing her.

But who knew what he was really thinking?

Julia stared back at him. Anyone who didn’t know the truth might think there might be a spark between them.

Everyone else thought so too-they’d hit it off soon.

Sherry would be all alone before long.

Lucas smirked. “You’re good at twisting things. Why didn’t you tell them your sister scammed people and crashed a marriage-making this innocent woman suffer for no reason.

“Saving them doesn’t erase your sister’s mistakes. Even in court, one good deed doesn’t cancel one bad

one.”

Julia’s eyes turned dark. “Wendy would never do that-must be a misunderstanding. Gilbert’s always treated her like a kid. This ‘side chick’ crap is nonsense.

“I know you’ll say Gilbert and I are too close.

“We were forced apart. The Bodes were hunted-my parents crashed into the ocean to save them.

“I lost my parents. Gilbert lost his dad. To survive, I married Mr. Miller to get him to help Gilbert-I never came back. I asked him to watch Wendy. How does that make her a side chick?”

Julia told her story plainly. No talk of feelings, but you could hear her heartbreak.

Gilbert took her hand, comforting her for their past pain and separation.

“Happy now, Sherry? Julia did ten times more for me-she sacrificed her marriage and married a guy 20 years older, all for me.

“You had it easy for two of your five years. What you did is nothing.”
