With that, she pointed at a painting behind her. “ Mrs. Lynch, do you know the name of this painting?“
Alice rolled her eyes.
What was this woman doing, was she testing her?
She replied carelessly, “This painting is named ‘The Act’, it’s used to critique people who intentionally put on an act in front of others to boast.“
Luna smiled. “This painting is perfect for you.“
Alice paused then realized Luna was using the painting to make fun of her!
She was accusing her of putting on an act!
Anger boiled in her chest. She tugged at Joshua’s arm. “Honey, she’s saying we don’t love each other. Kiss me and prove it to her! “
Joshua stiffened slightly, his arm still in her grip.
Running into Luna in this situation already made him feel awkward, and now Alice wanted him to act all lovey-dovey in front of her?
And… kiss her?
He frowned. “Stop making a scene.“
Since Alice returned to his side, he did consider kissing her.
But every time he almost did, somehow, his body instinctively rejected her.
He even consulted a psychiatrist because of this.
The psychiatrist said it could be because they had been apart for too long. Even though they loved each other mentally, but physically they were strangers.
He could not even kiss her in private, how could he do it here in public?
“I’m not making a scene.“
Alice was determined to take this opportunity to force Joshua to kiss her in front of Luna. “You don’t love me anymore, do you?“
He frowned and looked at her helplessly. “I don’t have to prove my love for you in front of outsiders, do I?“
The word ‘outsiders’ made Luna’s heart feel as if it had been squeezed.
