As Rose turned around, she caught sight of a hand swinging toward her face.
The slap came so suddenly that she barely had time to react.
Rose's expression darkened instantly.

James was still holding her arm.
Instinctively, he had positioned himself in front of her, blocking the slap Samantha had intended to land across her face.
It created a strangely protective stance.
Rose had no idea what they were talking about.
Nor did she understand why they had suddenly appeared and started making accusations.
