Wendy exclaimed, "Mr. Lynch, Irene was beaten! You have to stand up for her!"
Janet walked over to Michelle and stood behind her. "Ms. Landon."
Michelle gave a slight nod, signalling her to stay calm.
Nathan's handsome face showed no trace of emotion. His gaze settled lightly on Irene and asked, "You were beaten?"
Irene knew the importance of appearing weak and pitiable before a man like Nathan. Her eyes immediately reddened as she put on a pitiful expression.
"Mr. Lynch, I was beaten up. I was only going out to buy you cigarettes, but they bullied me…"
Nathan replied evenly, "So? You suffered a beating. What does that have to do with me?"
His words froze Irene in place with shock and horror. Her face turned deathly pale.
Wendy stared at Nathan in disbelief. "Mr. Lynch, what's wrong with you? Irene is your woman! Someone hitting her is just the same as them disrespecting you!"
Nathan looked straight at Irene. "You're my woman? Is that what you told her?"
Irene stammered, "I…"
Wendy pressed anxiously, "Irene, what exactly is going on between you and Mr. Lynch? Why doesn't he want to acknowledge your relationship?"
Irene felt utterly humiliated.
In truth, back in the private room, Nathan hadn't paid her much attention at all, and he had made it very clear that he was already married.
It was her own vanity, her need to save her ego, that made her boast in front of Wendy. She'd let the entire bar believe she belonged to Nathan, just to raise her own value.
Nathan's voice cut through sharply. "Speak. Why are you suddenly quiet? Are you mine? Have I ever touched you?"
Irene felt as though someone had just poured a bucket of ice water over her head.
Wendy grabbed her arm. "Irene, what's going on?"
At Wendy's question, Irene looked up and saw Michelle watching her calmly, with Janet beside her. They seemed as though they were waiting to see her make a fool of herself again.
Irene forced out, "Mr. Lynch, this is between us. Let's not talk about it in front of outsiders."
