Luna laughed at Alice’s words and shot her a glance. “You want me to apologize?“
Alice deliberately bumped into her and made her fall right into Gavin’s arms. He took advantage of her,
yet she was supposed to apologize instead?
“Yes, you should apologize. “ Alice pursed her lips and was about to say more when Joshua hung up
his phone and got out of the car. He had been taking a phone call, so he did not notice what went down
outside. He glanced at Gavin, who was rubbing his swollen face, then at Luna, who was cleaning
herself with a tissue. “What’s wrong?“
Alice immediately grabbed onto Joshua’s arm. “ When I was getting out of the car just now, I

was trying to take advantage of her.“
With that, Alice pointed at Gavin’s swollen cheek. “ Look. She slapped him right across his face, and
now she’s trying to clean herself up… Aren’t you being a little disrespectful, Luna? I asked her to
apologize to Gavin, but she refused to…“
Joshua frowned at that. He shot Luna a glance. “Is that true?“
Luna paused and lifted her head, meeting Joshua’s gaze directly. “Yes. Are you going to make me
apologize to someone who just took advantage of me, Mr. Lynch?“
Gavin was displeased to hear that. He glanced at Luna and said somewhat bitterly, ”I was trying to help
you. What makes you think I was trying to be handsy?”
”He’s right, ” Alice piped in. ”Joshua, the Walters sent Gavin over to give us a tour, but now, Luna has
made the situation awkward. At best, people would think Ms. Luna is feisty and just trying to protect
herself , but if word gets out, some might think the Lynch Group and the Walter Group have a rivalry !
This can be easily settled with an apology, but why is she so reluctant to do so? I don’t understand.”
Luna knew Alice was trying to coerce her into apologizing to that creep by talking about the impact of
her actions on the company. However, she still refused to do so. Luna narrowed her eyes and tossed
the tissue into a nearby trash can. ”I won’t apologize.”
Luna was not an arrogant person. She was willing to be Joshua’s maid and employee , all for the sake

so, he and Alice would take this win and try to irritate her even more.
Besides, Luna knew that Gavin’s motive was not to take advantage of her. Instead, he and Alice would
go out of their way to make her uncomfortable and upset her.
”Luna, it’s just an apology. It’s not like you’ll lose anything. ” Alice rolled her eyes. ”It’s just a simple
sorry, but if you don’t do so, Joshua will have a hard time explaining this to the Walters… ”
“Yes, ” Joshua interjected before Alice could finish her sentence. “It’s just a simple sorry.” He shot Luna
a glance, then turned around to look at Alice. “ Apologize to him.”
Luna lifted her head to gaze at him. Her entire face was pale. He wanted her to apologize?
Luna knew Joshua could see through everything that happened. In the car, he noticed that Luna was
unnerved by Gavin’s presence and switched seats with her. This meant that he was aware of how
uncomfortable Gavin made her.
All of a sudden, he wanted her to apologize to that creep, all because of what Alice had said?
