Joshua gently placed one hand under Luna’s chin, and the other on the back of her head, kissing her with fervent and passion.
Luna widened her eyes. She struggled against him, trying to get away, to no avail.
Luna glared at this man. How dare he kiss her? Right in front of Theo, no less!
Even though she and Theo were just pretending, they were still a couple in public! How dare Joshua do this to her? He had no respect for her dignity at all!
“Joshua Lynch! “ Theo growled through gritted teeth. He clenched his fists and grabbed Joshua’s collar. Before Joshua could react, Theo drew back his fist and struck a blow towards Joshua’s face.
However, Joshua was quicker, and he immediately grabbed hold of Theo’s hand in mid-air. He said nonchalantly, a hint of taunting in his gaze, “Look at this. How are you even supposed to protect her?“
Theo grew even more enraged upon hearing Joshua’s insulting tone. He clenched his teeth and swung his other fist toward him.
This time, Joshua did not stop him, but instead, he stepped aside and dodged Theo’s blow. Then, he curled his lips into a sneer and said mockingly, “Are all artists as slow as you?“
Before Theo could say anything in response, Joshua reared his arm back.
Seeing that Joshua’s knuckles were about to connect with Theo’s face, Luna immediately lunged forward, putting herself right between the two fighting men.
A flash of surprise passed through Joshua’s eyes, but it was too late. He could not stop his arm anymore.
Joshua’s fist connected forcefully with Luna’s body, right in the middle of her shoulder wound.
In the split second that he struck his blow, Luna could hear a ripping sound coming from the recently sutured wound. The next moment, all she could feel was an excruciating pain that shot down her shoulder and into her entire body, as if someone were ripping her apart!
