Chapter 21
As soon as Arianna recognized Trevor’s voice, she immediately ran over to complain to him.”Trevor, that b*tch Emma threw coffee in my face!” Slinging accusations despite being the guilty party was something Arianna had often done in the past, so Emma was used to those little tricks.
Besides, she did not expect Trevor to speak up for her.
She simply whispered to Susanna, “I’m going to the restroom.” She did not wish to hang around and continue arguing.
Although she had been splashed with coffee, she had also retaliated in kind.
In her opinion, they were even now.
Her top priority at the moment was to treat the spot on her wrist that had beenburned earlier.
A cold water rinse would probably help a lot.
As she was unable to bear being slandered by Arianna, Susanna immediately retorted, “Miss Bateson, why didn’t you mention that you had splashed Emma first?Moreover, the coffee you splashed her with was burning hot.” She grabbed Emma, who was just about to leave, and revealed Emma’s arm that had turned bright red from the burn.
Grilling her teeth, she snarled angrily, “Emma’s arm has been burned so badly.
How dare you go around slinging accusations! If anything happens to her, I will ruin that face of yours!”
It wasnot until Susanna pulled Emma over that Trevor noticed how Emma’s white T shirt was a complete mess and the fair skin of her arm was shockingly red.
Recalling that Susanna had mentioned how the coffee Arianna splashed was scorching hot, he immediately ordered furiously, “Apologize.”
Arianna triumphantly crossed her arms in front ofher chest and looked at Emma “Trevor has spoken.
Hurry up and apologize.” He glared at her coldly and spoke each word clearly.
“I asked you to apologize!” His words surprised Emma, Susanna, and even the people around them.
However, Emma immediately looked away since it was rather ironic.
He had never stood up for her when they were still husband and wife, but he was protecting her now thatthey had been divorced for a year.
The author Lilian Lee had a classic quote that summed up the situation very well: “Whatis redundant? A padded jacket in summer, a fan in winter, and your kindness after my love for you has gone cold.” Emma no longer needed his protection, which was why she was not thankful toward him in the slightest.
“What?!” Arianna jumped to her feet and screamed in rage.
“Trevor, are you crazy?! Why should I apologize?! I might have splashed her, but she splashed me too!”
