He’d almost let that idiot throw him off. Of course anyone who hung out with Sherry was a liar. She’d gone bad hanging around these people-and she actually thought they were good!

Since this was a last-minute thing and everyone was just there for fun, they hadn’t booked the place out. No chance to rearrange who stood where.

Julia tried the same move as Juan-bumped into Tony, trying to shove him aside and slide next to Lucas.

But Tony? Sure, he had his flamboyant moments, but he was still a solid guy.

He stood beside Lucas like a boulder, didn’t budge an inch.

Julia stumbled and almost hit the floor. Gilbert caught her, pulling her against his chest, and whirled on Tony. “You shove a woman around, you piece of trash?”

“Open your damn eyes. Your woman slammed into me.” Tony glanced at their cozy position. “Keep your girl on a leash. Maybe she’ll stop drooling over other men.”

There were more people in line than just their group.

A lot of people still didn’t know the backstory.

In a flash, everyone’s eyes landed on Julia.

One woman spoke up, “Got one guy hanging off her, still fishing for another. Pretty face, trash behavior.”

Gilbert stepped toward her. “Watch your mouth. How could someone as kind as Julia pull a stunt like that?”

Julia’s face crumpled into wounded innocence. “It’s fine. I just get scared easily. Didn’t want to be in the back and cause trouble. I don’t matter.”

“Ugh. Such a fake.” The woman wasn’t buying it.

Her boyfriend elbowed her. “Come on. She’s just trying not to inconvenience anyone. Don’t be such a shrew.”

No woman liked being called a shrew. She bristled. “What’s that supposed to mean? I’m a shrew?”

“Please don’t fight because of me. I’ll stand anywhere. Really.” Julia’s soft voice made it worse.

The boyfriend glared at his girlfriend. “Look at her. Sweet, classy, polite. You’re just bitter and loud.”

“I’m bitter? I saw her slam into that guy on purpose. A classy woman wouldn’t be here causing drama.”

The man glanced back. Julia gave him a fragile, wounded smile.

Her eyes said it all. She’d been misjudged. She didn’t do that.

Something clicked in the guy’s head. He yanked his hand from his girlfriend’s. “Enough. You’re just jealous because she’s prettier. I don’t need a woman this embarrassing. We’re done.”

The woman’s eyes went red. She bit down hard. “Breaking up with me over some stranger? Fine! We’re done!”

She turned and walked.

Gilbert patted the guy’s shoulder. “You get used to it. Some women can’t handle seeing a better woman succeed. Julia’s kind, capable, knows her place. Not like ours. Always unreasonable.”

He said it loud enough for Sherry to hear.

“Right? No gratitude, no contentment. I already deal with family pressure just being with her. It’s exhausting. And she still acts out.”

Gilbert felt a rush of kinship. “Exactly. My wife’s the same. Everyone told me not to marry someone with no connections. Not only do they have no backing, but their vision is narrow.
