All eyes were on Olivia, Joe, and Thomas. No one noticed the change in Sean’s expression as he stood there on the stage.

His eyes had widened almost comically when he spotted Thomas, and immediately after, the young man who could bring all of Irieson to his knees if he wanted to broke out into a foolish grin.

“What makes you think you can butt in now, Olivia Pearson?” Joe retorted icily.

He didn’t have a single ounce of respect for Olivia, so why would he bother to show her any courtesy?

“Why, you…” Olivia was infuriated.

But at the same time, she was also regretting her decision to bring Thomas in on a whim. If she hadn’t, then none of this would’ve happened.

In her defense, she didn’t know that Thomas and Joe were enemies! He broke Harvey’s legs… so it won’t be easy to settle things today.

However, regardless of everything, Thomas was still her savior, and she would protect him no matter what.

“My sister is merely working as a server at a bar. She’s not a bar girl. You need to apologize for what you said just now!”

Thomas’ voice was firm and authoritative.

“Apologize? Hahaha!” Joe guffawed. “Am I hearing things? A little thug like you expects me to apologize? Do you know who I am? Did you get dropped on the head as a baby?”

Several among the onlookers began to snicker as well.

Their thoughts were largely the same. How can a bar girl’s brother like you compare to Joe Patton? How can you make such a ludicrous demand? What an arrogant fool!

“I don’t care who you are. You humiliated my sister, so you need to apologize, or else, I’ll make you pay!”

Olivia was startled. She immediately nudged Thomas as she thought to herself, I can’t believe how hot-headed Thomas is. He’s even threatening Joe Patton, of all people! Everyone in Irieson knows that Joe is a well-known bully. Things will get even more out of hand if Thomas angers him!

I wrong? Your sister is a b*tch who’s selling herself out at the bar, isn’t she? The audacity you have
