The bar turned into a mess due to the fist fight that occurred. Rowan had managed to knock the blonde-haired guy off. But that didn't stop the fact that he was badly injured.Astrid grabbed his arm and left the bar while Rose and Nelson stayed behind. "I am sorry about this." Leaving a compensation card for the bar owner, Nelson dragged Rose out of the bar.Once they were outside, he let go of her and raked his fingers through his hair, frustrated by the incident."Hey, you shouldn't be pissed about this, Minty got what she deserved," Rose mumbled, her mouth pouted to the side." When will you learn to stop making rash decisions? Look what it caused. Rowan got injured because of your bad temper! " Nelson scolded her.Rose scoffed in disbelief. " Look, I did what was best for you. I didn't know that things would go south. As for Rowan, I don't feel any remorse towards him either. He deserved it as well, " she protested, finding no fault in what she did to Minty." Did you even know th

Astrid was sad about his injury and didn't want to talk to him. While he desperately wanted to break the silence between them, Astrid remained stern, treating his wound."Why did you step in front of me? Do you know you would have been killed by that attack?"
