“Who is she?” Bella demanded then, dragging the attention back to her. “The girl who attacked me—what’s her name?” Narrowing her eyes, she spat out, “I know you all know who she is.” “What girl?” Gibsie replied calmly. “I didn’t see a girl, did you, lads?” “Never saw any girl,” Johnny agreed. “But I did see Cormac hit Joey first.” Cormac’s eyes widened in disgust. “You liar.” Johnny shrugged. “That’s what I saw.” “Funny, I saw that, too,” Gibsie offered. “He just lunged at you, Johnny. Lynchy was protecting you.” “That’s what I saw,” Hughie agreed. “And Mr. Twomey was standing behind Johnny. His view was obstructed so he couldn’t see who threw the first punch.” “And there are no cameras in the car park,” Gibsie mused. “I guess that makes it your word against ours.” “Five against two,” Hughie offered. “Funny that.” “Karma’s a beautiful thing,” Gibsie agreed with a smirk. “There was six of you!” Bella hissed. “There was a girl.” “Nope,” Gibsie replied with a shrug. “You’re imagining things.” “You’re a pack of liars,” Bella hissed, furious. “You do realize you caused all of this?” Hughie shot back. “Or do you just not care?” “Leave her alone,” Cormac quickly came to her defense. “She’s hurt.” “She’s a parasite is what she is,” Gibsie sneered. “And you’d do well to get as far away from her as possible because you’re not acting like the lad we grew up with.”

Lol 🤣 imma pretend i didn’t see a girl either and even if I did, Bella so deserved that.
