Upon seeing this, Dustin was truly rendered speechless. With a worried expression on his face, he

urged, “Take it easy, both of you. Don't drink too much as it's bad for your health.”

“Shut it! You're not even Joan's match despite being a man!” Abelyn was totally wasted then, so she

naturally wouldn't have much of a recollection of whatever she said.

“Tell me, Abelyn, why do you like that bartender? What exactly about him that makes you so crazy

about him?"

“Everything!” Sprawling over the table, Abelyn muttered, “He looks like my ex-boyfriend, so that's

reason enough.”

Her voice was a mere whisper, but beside her, Joan still caught her final remark. In a flash, she

understood her obstinacy.

"What is it?” Dustin queried curiosity while looking at Joan in front of him.

“She said that bartender looks like her ex-boyfriend.”

All at once, both of them went silent.

As Joan gazed at the woman lying over the table, sympathy welled within her...

"Ahh!" Joan cried out when someone walking past her bumped into her out of the blue.

“I'm sorry. It was an accident.” The other person hastily wiped the liquor off her while apologizing.

“It's okay.” Joan flashed her a smile.

Suddenly jumping up, the other person pointed at Joan and exclaimed hesitantly, “Hey, aren't you

the woman...”

Hmm? What is she trying to say? Joan was perplexed as she stared at the person in front of her. I

don't think I know her.

“Aren“t you the woman who snatched Lucinda Xenos' bra?”

At that, panic instantly engulfed Joan. Damn it! Why is there someone who would remember such

trivial gossip that has nothing to do with her?

“I'm sorry, but you got the wrong person.” As Joan said that, she made to leave.

"Hey, stop right there! I definitely didn’t get the wrong person! Everyone, come check it out! She's

the person who snatched someone else's bra!”

In the blink of an eye, many strangers surrounded Joan

“So, you're Joan Watts?"

"She's even the ex-wife of the president of Norton Corporation. How shameful!”

"Ah, ex-wife means she’s a stranger to him!”

Several people around her kept talking about her, their expressions disdainful.

“Stop running your mouths! That's not true!” Dustin immediately raced over and defended her while

shielding her behind him.

"And who are you? Don't tell me you're her boy toy?”

"Exactly! She's greedy as hell, what with her wandering eye! Therefore, karma will get her sooner or

later!”

“Right back at you!” Dustin roared indignantly as he pointed at them. He simply couldn't fathom

how those people had the nerve to spread such rumors when they didn't know the first thing about

it.

“What are you if not her boy toy? Why would you be with her, then?” The scene quickly descended

into an uproar, and the atmosphere turned exceedingly mortifying.

At that precise moment, Joan was seized by the urge to crawl into a hole and never come out.

"Sorry, we've still got something to do, so please excuse us.” As she said that, she made to do a cut

and run.

“Jeez, why are you in such a hurry? Are you panicked now? Why would you be flustered if you

hadn't done those despicable things?” the person censured relentlessly with a contemptuous

expression.

Damn it all to hell! Why won't they just drop it?

Joan's hands clenched into fists, and a chilly air radiated from her.

“Let's go, Joan. Just ignore them.” Dustin then wanted to pull her out of there.

But unexpectedly, that person proceeded to holler at the top of his lungs. “Everyone, come and

have a look here! This woman, Joan Watts, is really something else! She pesters Larry Norton during

the day, and at night, she carries on with her boy toy!”

In a trice, the crowd grew. They took photos and hurled criticisms, making the scene extremely

embarrassing.

At his wits’ end, Dustin swiftly helped Abelyn up and left the nightclub with Joan.

"Are you okay?" He then turned to the side and looked at the person in front of him worriedly.

Joan merely shook her head lightly in response, saying nary a word. However, how could she

possibly be fine? She had been plagued by that matter throughout the past few days, so it had long

since driven her crazy.
