The sound of Gwen’s slap rang across the banquet hall.
Luna covered her face in shock, turning to look at her.
Gwen crossed her arms across her chest and snorted coldly, “Who knew you still dared come here! “
She glared at Luna viciously, her eyes full of haughty derision. “In Banyan City, you dared seduce another woman’s husband, ruining her marriage until she’s getting a divorce, and now you dare come flaunting your claws in Sea City! “
Gwen’s voice was loud and boisterous, attracting the attention of everyone around them. They crowded around them instinctively.
As the crowd expanded, Gwen grew more aggressive. “And yet you dare come here? Do you know Alice is from Sea City, the people of Sea City are supporting her! “
Even though Joshua was a family name in Banyan City, in Sea City, not many people knew him.
Most people had missed the news, but hearing Gwen’s words, the crowd erupted into a sea of discussion.
“She’s so beautiful, who could guess she’s just a mistress…“
“And she even ruined their marriage, the wife is getting a divorce…“
“She deserves to be slapped! “
The murmurs of the surrounding crowd made Luna frown.
Even though she and Gwen were desk-mates in high school, they lost touch once Luna moved to Banyan City to attend university.
Why did Gwen suddenly care about her old friend whom she had not contacted in more than ten years?
Seeing Luna press her palm to her cheek and remain silent, Gwen grew even more aggressive.
She raised her hand and tried to slap her again.
In mid-air, her wrist was restrained by someone. It was not anyone else, but the target of her slap,
Luna herself.
Luna held onto her wrist tightly, her voice cold and distant. “Ms. Larson, mind your words. Did you forget how you got into a fight with the kids in the other class because you mindlessly believed some baseless rumors?“
For a second, Gwen was dazed.
In high school, she did get into a fight with students from another class because of a baseless rumor.
