Victoria scowled as well.

Allegra was the pawn she had prepared to attack Cordelia, but she did not expect the pawn to be this useless, being

countered in just a few sentences and getting embarrassed in front of the other heiresses!

Cordelia was also to be blamed for being a sharp-tongued monster!

Victoria bit her lips. Keeping a straight face, she feigned sternness as she looked at Allegra. “Cousin, have you had

too much to drink? What nonsense are you talking about in front of everyone!?”

“Your Highness, I—”

“Apologize to Ms. Irwin!”

Allegra was indignant but understood it when she saw Victoria’s look. She smiled and politely approached Cordelia

with a glass to say, “Sorry, Cordelia. I just say what’s on my mind without thinking. I don’t mean anything bad!”

Cordelia remained calm and composed.

“You know what, Cordelia? This toast is for you. Consider it my formal apology to you, okay?”

When Cordelia looked at Allegra, she had already raised her glass. The other heiresses were insensible one if she

did not accept the apology now.

She smiled. Well-behaved children rarely got consolation candies. One reaped what they sowed in this world. It was

better to play the game till the end.

“A formal apology?” She emphasized each word. “A formal apology has its rules in Southeast Aciatic… Are you

planning to gloss it over with just a glass of wine, Ms. Oliver?”

Allegra froze, not expecting Cordelia to know the local customs and rules so well when she had not been there for

long.

Cordelia was right. According to their rules, there was a difference between an apology and a formal apology. A

formal apology required one to visit the other party with gifts and, if necessary, get on their knees to ask for

forgiveness.

Cordelia looked at her with a small smile.

Allegra truly regretted her words now. Her brain-to-mouth filter did not work again. Why did she even mention

“formal” when she just had to apologize?

Now that she shot herself in her own foot, others were laughing at her too!

Allegra glared at Cordelia resentfully and cast a pleading gaze at Victoria. However, the latter was helpless and did

not care.

“Alright, Cordelia’s just joking with you.” Victoria mediated. “She’s a graceful heiress and the matriarch of a

significant family in Centrolis. She isn’t that petty. Drink the wine and consider this done. Will that be okay with you,

Cordelia?”

Cordelia had not wanted to be involved with Allegra and had to do Victoria a favor since the princess had spoken.

Despite that, this was not what Allegra thought. She had wanted to play Cordelia for a fool when she “apologized”

just now. It was just that she did not get to finish her sentence.

To her, Cordelia was the Irwin heiress but had not grown up in Southeast Aciatic and was not the same with them—

heiresses who had grown up in luxury. Cordelia was an outsider!

For an outsider to act so brazenly, how would Allegra keep up in the high society of Southeast Aciatic if she went

down without a fight? She scoffed and upended her glass while Cordelia was unaware.

The glass of red wine splashed on Cordelia’s dress.

“Oh no, I’m so sorry!” Allegra pretended. “I lost my grip and spilled the wine… Cordelia, you wouldn’t be mad at

me, would you?”

Cordelia felt rage shoot up her head.

“You!” She glared at Allegra. It was obviously intentional!

“Cordelia, Her Highness just said that you’re a graceful heiress and the matriarch of a major family. You wouldn’t be

so petty!”

Cordelia took a deep breath. It was unusually quiet around her as everyone shot her complicated gazes.

Victoria was taken aback by what Allegra had done. She did not want her younger cousin to be at a disadvantage,

but Alexander was right—the Irwins were no pushovers. Cordelia was the apple of Rowan’s eyes. How could she just

take this injustice?

Moreover, they had to pay respect to the queen inside the palace after the flower viewing was over…
