Chapter 73 Reasonable

Kaia stared at him, eyes cold—like he’d just told the world’s dumbest joke.

“I know you and Kimberly don’t get along, but wasn’t kicking them out a bit much? They had nowhere else to go!”

He pressed on, trying to justify himself.

“Yeah, maybe Kimberly crossed a line-but she’s the one who spread the rumors, and now Luna’s the one getting scolded for it. Don’t you think… maybe you owe her an apology?”
