A Replacement Bride

Chapter 67

"Whoa, is this a fight I'm seeing?" Aberama's eyes lit up upon seeing the commotion inside the elevator, and he bypassed Katherine to take a closer look.

Katherine rolled her eyes in response, speechless by the man's love for juicy gossip.

He might be a man, but he was more gossipy than a woman.

The young girl blushed upon seeing Aberama's good looks and hurriedly went up to him, hoping he could mediate the situation. "Please settle a debate for us, mister. This woman is nuts. We were just talking, and she suddenly threw herself at us. But now, this mister wants us to apologize. What kind of savageness is this?!"

"Hmm, you're right. It's not right of them to do so." Aberama wanted bigger drama.

"I know, right?! She's in the wrong!" The young girl found Aberama good-looking and reasonable, which was much better than the rude masked man.

"You liar! You maligned Joe! You guys called him ugly!" Beatrice argued with red-rimmed eyes while looking aggrievedly at Aberama. That gaze of hers was clearly one of ogling.

Meanwhile, Katherine quirked her lips as she stood to one side. What are they, children?! How can they be fighting over something so minor?!

"Hmm, you're right too." Aberama nodded thoughtfully and glanced at the young girl in front of him. "It is indeed wrong of you two to call people ugly behind their backs."

Having led astray just like that, the young girl reflexively retorted, "We didn't say it behind his back, did we?! We clearly said it in his presence…"

It was only then she realized what she had just said. Blushing with embarrassment, she looked at Aberama before shifting her gaze to Joaquin and finally said with unwilling resignation, "I'm sorry. It was wrong of us to talk about your looks in the first place. However, she can't assault for no reason either."

"I…" Beatrice looked toward Joaquin for aid, not knowing what to say.
