What Separates Me and You novel Chapter 9

Magic Cube was a popular club in Elysium, a paradise for the wealthy. Talking to a random guy here could mean talking to a prominent figure of Elysium. 

It was Josephine’s first time there, and her simple attire looked incredibly out of place in the crowd. 

Several people were in the private room, including Avery. 

She was sitting in a nonchalant position with both hands behind her head. She looked more relaxed than some of the men there. 

“Tyler, did you call me here just to let Mr. Alvarez interrogate me?” Avery asked, glancing at Lewis and Sierra, who were sitting beside him. 

Lewis leaned expressionlessly on the sofa with his legs crossed. The dim light was only shining on his chest, leaving his face in the shadows and making him look mysterious. 

Tyler Green furrowed his brows and spoke softly, “Just apologize to Miss Woods and this will all be over, okay?” 

“Who is she to ask for my apology?” Avery scoffed. 

“Avery, stop messing around!” 

It was really brave of Avery to even touch Sierra. Everyone knew that Sierra was Lewis’ beloved darling. 

“I’m not messing around. I hit her because I don’t like her. So what? Hey, bro, you drink chicken soup all the time, but I don’t see you apologizing to the chickens.” 

As soon as she said this, Sierra’s face changed drastically. She stood up abruptly but fell back down because of the pain in her ankle. 

“Watch your mouth! When I was dating Lewis, he wasn’t even married to that mute woman yet!” 

Avery glanced at her and sat upright with a grin. “Well then, they’ve been living together for more than ten years. Where were you during that time?” 

“How is that the same? She’s just an orphan. The Alvarez family took pity on her and let her…” 

Bang! 

Before Sierra could finish her sentence, the glass in Lewis’ hand fell on the table, and because of the strong impact, shattered into pieces. The spilled alcohol spread across the table. 

Lewis leaned forward, exposing his cold face under the light. His face was so grim that it was almost frightening. He then turned to glare at Avery. “Apologize.” 

Avery raised an eyebrow and uttered casually, “I won’t.” 

“Is it necessary to be so angry, Lewis? We’ve all been friends for so long,” Fred added sheepishly. He wanted to but didn’t dare to say that it wasn’t worth it for a woman. 

Lewis glanced at him, and Fred awkwardly shut his mouth, retreating to his own corner.
