Chapter 724 Don't Take It Too Personally

After hanging up the phone, she slowly got up and adjusted her expression before deliberately acting

flustered as she headed toward the restaurant.

"Sorry for making you guys wait."

Stacy glanced at the two apologetically as she walked in through the door.

Upon seeing that she had finally arrived, both Rosalie and Xander heaved an inward sigh of relief as

they smiled at her and said, "It’s no big deal. Hurry over and sit down!"

Stacy nodded and sat down next to them. When she noticed they had not even taken a single bite of

the food, she clicked her tongue and said, "Didn't I tell you guys to go ahead? Why did you wait for me?

I feel so embarrassed now that the food has gone cold."

Rosalie was not close to her and merely smiled without saying anything.

Xander replied perfunctorily, "You’re the host, so it's only right that we wait for you."

An awkward silence fell after he finished speaking.

Rosalie gave Xander an awkward glance. She did not know what she should do.

If it had been possible, she would have left earlier.

She could have discussed her collaboration with Xander when Stacy was not there.

Now that Stacy had arrived, it would not be appropriate for the two to continue talking.

Rosalie did not want to waste her time here.

Xander met her gaze and guessed what was going through her mind. He took the initiative to break the

silence and said to Stacy, "Stacy, didn’t you mention that this meal..."

Stacy seemed to jolt back to her senses when she heard that, and she glanced at Rosalie briefly as

she said, "Oh, I'm so sorry. I spent such a long time on the road that I’m dazed now. I totally forgot that

this meal was to serve as an apology to Miss Jacobs."

When Stacy finished her sentence, she stood and made a toast. "Miss Jacobs, I had too much to drink

that night, so please don’t take things personally. I'll drink to your good health!”

Upon finishing her sentence, she raised her glass and downed its contents in one go. Then, she

showed the two her empty glass, making sure to take an even longer pause when showing it to

Rosalie.

An awkward expression flitted across Rosalie's face when she noticed that.

It was obvious that Stacy was hinting for her to have a drink too.

However, she rarely drank so much unless absolutely necessary.

Besides, Stacy was supposed to be apologizing to her now. She was being much too aggressive.

"Miss Jacobs, are you refusing to forgive me?" Stacy asked as her brows furrowed together slightly. A

self reproaching look appeared on her face as she said, "I don't deserve your forgiveness. I went

overboard the other night by behaving rudely to you in front of so many people after getting drunk. My

father grounded me for several days after I returned home, and I spent the past few days reflecting on

my actions..."

Stacy turned to look at Xander, who was seated next to her, as she said that. The corners of her lips

tugged into a self-deprecating smile as she said, "There’s no fault in me liking Xander, but it’s none of

my business who Xander likes. I shouldn't have forced my feelings onto him and made things awkward

for both of you the other day. I’m really sorry about that. You don't have to forgive me if you don't want

to. I just want to let you guys know I truly know what I've done wrong."

A look flickered through Rosalie’s eyes when she saw how sincere Stacy was.

She had not even taken what had happened the previous night to heart. Now, it only seemed right for

her to reciprocate when Stacy had apologized so sincerely.

Thus, in the end, Rosalie raised her glass and said, "It’s not that big a deal, Miss Hudson. I didn’t even

take what happened that night to heart. Please don't get hung up over it."

When Rosalie finished speaking, she smiled slightly before tipping her glass up and downing the wine

inside it.

The wine had only just entered Rosalie’s mouth when she began frowning.
