Although Lindsay was a lady from a renowned family, Arabella's commanding presence had her cornered.
"What's the problem? It's not like | bumped into you on purpose.”
"Did | say you bumped into me?"
Lindsay was suddenly at a loss for words.
"So you know you bumped into someone, apologize," Arabella didn't want to make a scene. It wasn't every day that Grandpa
Eugene threw a birthday bash, and she didn't want to ruin his celebration.
But Lindsay, with her defiant demeanor, didn't seem inclined to apologize.
"Can't even say sorry? Or should | take matters into my own hands?"
"I'm a guest invited by Mr. Albright. | dare you."

Arabella stepped forward, her icy glare making Lindsay instinctively step back.
"Grandpa Eugene invited you?"
Another step from Arabella, and Lindsay's resolve wavered as she took another step back.
"He would bother to invite someone like you?"
"What do you mean?" Lindsay met Arabella's gaze, but her courage faltered after just a couple of seconds and she backed down,
"That comment is an insult to Mr. Albright's judgment.”
"I'm talking about your poor character."
Lindsay, facing this kind of confrontation for the first time, becfrustrated, "It was just a small bump, no need to be so
aggressive. It's not like you're missing a piece of flesh."
Arabella stepped forward again, leaving Lindsay with nowhere to go but the corner.
Arabella stepped on her foot, cutting off Lindsay's complaint, "It's just a step, not like you're missing a piece of flesh."
Lindsay tried to break free, but she was clearly no match for Arabella, "Ouch, get your foot off."
Madeline, a friend nearby, quickly tried to defuse the situation, "Today's Mr. Albright's birthday, and we're all here as his invited
guests. Let's not make a scene. Please let Lindsay go. It was an accident, and you two are even now."
"She bumped intotwice, and | only stepped on her once. Are we even?" Arabella wouldn't budge, her cold eyes fixed on
Lindsay.
"Lindsay, just apologize to her," Madeline sensed Arabella was not someone to be trifled with, "Don't forget we have important
thing to attend to today!"
They were there to seek mentorship, and it wouldn't do to make a fool of themselves in front of the masters.
Although Lindsay had no desire to apologize to Arabella, the thought of the mentorship spurred her to grudgingly mutter, "I'm
sorry, okay?"

"Not good enough."
"What do you want, then?"
"Don’t you know how to offer a sincere apology? Didn't anyone at hteach you? Needto show you how?"
Lindsay bit her lip. Seeing Eugene rushing over, she didn't want to embarrass herself and quickly blurted out, "I'm sorry. | did it on
purpose earlier. It won't happen again."
"Was that so hard?" Arabella shot her a callous look and turned to walk away.
Lindsay watched her walk off, tears welling up, ready to play the victim in front of Eugene, hoping he would take her side.
After all, she had "accidentally" bumped into Arabella, and Arabella had insisted on stepping on her foot and demanding an
apology.
If Eugene knew how petty and narrow-minded Arabella was.
But the next moment, Eugene approached like a joyful child, making a beeline towards them.
Even the other guests who wanted to greet him were ignored in his excitement.
