Chapter 58

Percy grinned and waved it off. "Forget it, forget it. Your hand's already broken anyway. I didn't lose anything. I'm in a good mood today, so I'll let it slide."

Jonah had actually put away the carefully prepared written apology she had given him, and even apologized so sincerely. For what? Jonah hadn't done anything wrong! It was Percy who broke Jonah's hand. If anything, Percy was the one who should be apologizing! Jonah walked off the stage, still in a daze. Everyone swarmed around him, talking over each other, trying to explain. Only then did he realize that they had gotten it all wrong. The protests earlier hadn't been directed at him. They had been aimed at Percy. However, none of that mattered anymore. That bitter taste had already sunk deep into his heart, scraping away a good part of his arrogance. "Jonah," Lily said, looking at him with worried eyes.
