This was outright provocation
How dare you ask something like that?” Suddenly, a striking woman with a killer figure stepped forward, her eyes fixed on Raven, blazing with fury.
The expressions of the other women turned icy as they looked at Raven
“You’re practically throwing yourself at Mr. Lysander. Don’t you have any shame? Mr. Lysander is a gentleman. He just doesn’t want to humiliate you in public. Did you really think you could take advantage of that?”
“Don’t think just because Mr. Lysander is nice, you can do whatever you want. Let go of him. Now!”
After those sharp words rang out, a wave of realization spread across the crowd.
They wondered, “So those rumors about Cassian being a pushover? Maybe they were true. He probably just has too much of a conscience to turn people down.
Isla must have really crossed a line for him to actually get mad. Yeah, that must be it
That was what they all thought. Cassian was simply too kind to reject Raven outright.
After all, Cassian was practically perfect, handsome, accomplished, and admired. No one believed he could possibly be into a woman like her, so plain and pathetic.
To the people around them, Raven holding Cassian’s hand was nothing short of defiling him. The women around her looked like they were ready to rip her apart. And yet Raven found it oddly amusing
Slowly, she raised her hand, still clasping his, and gently ran her fingers along his. Then, with a soft smile, the spoke. Let go But his hand isn’t just good–looking. It’s nice and warm. Why on earth would I let go!”
A collective gasp swept through the crowd. For a few seconds, it felt like no one could breathe.
“Who is this woman? How could someone be this shameless? That was the only thing running through their minds
It took several deep breaths before one woman finally managed to swallow her rage and hold back from lunging at Raven.
Her voice shook with fury as she glared at her. “You little tramp. Watch yourself.”
She quickly turned to Cassian, her tone pleading. “Mr. Lysander, she’s not worthy of you. You’re too kind. That’s the only reason she dares to behave like this. Please, push her away”
“She’s right, Mr. Lysander. If you let her get away with this, she’ll just keep going further.”
But to their surprise, Cassian didn’t move. It was as if he hadn’t heard a word they said. He made no effort to pull
Just then, with all eyes on her and every woman fuming with rage, Raven arched one brow ever so slightl
“Oh? Is that so?” she said, voice laced with amusement. “And what exactly do you mean by going further?”
Before anyone could reply, she leaned in close and kissed him, right on the lips
There was stunned silence. The crowd froze. They had not expected that she had just kissed Cassian right in Once the shock wore off, their expressions twisted with rage. Now it wasn’t just about killing Raven
No, at this point, even that didn’t feel like enough. She had tainted their crush. How could they possibly forgive that?
