Luke had no expression as he looked into Susan’s eyes. There was even slight disgust in his gaze.
Susan felt as though she had just been thrown into icy -cold water, freezing her heart. She knew that Luke treated her the way because he did not remember her anymore. However, her heartache felt incredibly real a t that moment.
She fought her tears back and looked at Luke stubbornly. "What if I refuse to apologize?”
Luke snorted. "I advise you to obey me. Otherwise, the Jenkins family..."
"What will the Jenkins family do? Chairman Jenkins, you're making a huge commitment there," a cold voice interrupted.
Luke Jenkins was taken by surprise as he turned around to find Julian Shaw standing behind him apathetically.
"Julian Shaw?"
However, Julian ignored him and walked over to Susan. He looked at her discomposure, and his eyes looked like they were on fire.
"Dumb woman, don't you know how to dodge when someone is splashing something at you?" Julian shouted.
Susan was taken aback. After a while, she said softly," I...didn't have the time to dodge..."
"You didn't have time to dodge? Then, don't you know how to retaliate?" Julian snorted, and all of a sudden, h e took the coffee cup in front of Susan and flung its contents at Mandy.
Nobody would have guessed Julian Shaw would have done something like that. In a heartbeat, Mandy was splashed from head to toe.
She was initially stunned, then she shrieked, "My hair!
I put in so much effort into my hair! My bag, my clothes...” Mandy wiped her clothes vigorously with a napkin.
"Did you see that? That is how you splash someone!" Julian looked at Susan pointedly.
While he was still simmering in annoyance, Susan realized that she was not afraid of him anymore. She snorted and even laughed. "Yes, I did!"
"Dumb woman, I’ll kill you if you let yourself be on the losing end again." Julian's expression seemed to improve at the sight of Susan’s smile, but he still looked serious when he helped her stand up.
"Wait, Julian, what does this mean?” Luke ignored Mandy who was fussing about. He looked at Julian, who was holding Susan's hand, as an inexplicable dissatisfaction arose in his heart.
"What does that mean?" Julian snickered. "Are you trying to stop me from taking action after bullying my woman?”
At that point, he pulled Susan aside possessively. In the past, whenever he suddenly made such an intimate gesture, Susan would have subconsciously resisted. This time, she just leaned into his arms quietly.
Luke suddenly felt irritated and he rubbed his clenched fist. "Even if you're Julian Shaw, you can't do as you please."
With a sneer, Julian said arrogantly, "I do as I like. Can you control me?"
His unreasonable attitude angered both Luke and Mandy.
"I'm afraid that today's event was a misunderstanding. As you can see, I have a boyfriend. So, there’s no such thing as me fancying Mr. Jenkins. As for Miss Adams' for slandering me, I'm curious too," Susan spoke softly.
