Luna laughed at Alice’s words and shot her a glance. “You want me to apologize?“
Alice deliberately bumped into her and made her fall right into Gavin’s arms. He took advantage of her, yet she was supposed to apologize instead?
“Yes, you should apologize. “ Alice pursed her lips and was about to say more when Joshua hung up his phone and got out of the car. He had been taking a phone call, so he did not notice what went down outside. He glanced at Gavin, who was rubbing his swollen face, then at Luna, who was cleaning herself with a tissue. “What’s wrong?“
Alice immediately grabbed onto Joshua’s arm. “ When I was getting out of the car just now, I accidentally bumped into Luna, and she fell. Gavin grabbed her to break her fall, but she thinks Gavin was trying to take advantage of her.“
With that, Alice pointed at Gavin’s swollen cheek. “ Look. She slapped him right across his face, and now she’s trying to clean herself up… Aren’t you being a little disrespectful, Luna? I asked her to apologize to Gavin, but she refused to…“
Joshua frowned at that. He shot Luna a glance. “Is that true?“
Luna paused and lifted her head, meeting Joshua’s gaze directly. “Yes. Are you going to make me apologize to someone who just took advantage of me, Mr. Lynch?“
Gavin was displeased to hear that. He glanced at Luna and said somewhat bitterly, ”I was trying to help you. What makes you think I was trying to be handsy?”
