?Chapter 218:
“I must apologize. Mr. Riley, your word is final,” Nigel replied, his tone now exceedingly respectful, a stark contrast to his prior arrogance. “You should seek her forgiveness, not mine.”
Without hesitation, Nigel quickly turned to Rachel, his expression one of remorse. “Ms. Marsh, I am entirely at fault. I should not have insulted you or your brother. I should not have judged him. I deeply regret my actions. Please, allow me a chance to make amends.”
Rachel signaled to Jeffrey. “Jeffrey,e over here.”
Recalling Nigel’s previous insults, Jeffrey still felt intimidated, hesitating with a look of fear.
Natalia approached and gently took his hand. “You’re Jeffrey, right? Don’t worry. We are all here for you. Let’s go together.”
With encouragement, Jeffrey walked forward with Natalia.
Rachel addressed Nigel again, saying, “Firstly, you owe an apology to my brother. Secondly, I need you to apologize publicly, in front of the applicants and all the employees.”
Nigel wiped his forehead, which was already slick with a cold gloss of sweat.
Despite his reluctance, he understood the severe implications for hispany if Eric decided to take legal action and they didn’t reconcile the situation.
Left with no alternative, he proceeded to apologize.
Stepping closer, Nigel addressed Jeffrey tentatively. “You’re Jeffrey, right? I was wrong earlier. I shouldn’t have humiliated you. Now I see my mistake. Can you forgive me?”
Jeffrey’s face, pale initially, turned a shade of red. It was evident he vividly remembered being humiliated.
As Jeffrey stayed silent, Nigel’s anxiety intensified. “Jeffrey, I truly admit my errors. Please don’t hold this against me. Would you consider forgiving me and giving me another chance?”

This time, Jeffrey nodded, though he chose not to speak further to the man.
Nigel, seeing the nod, felt a wave of relief.
Later, he made another public apology and statement in front of everyone. It was only after that moment that Rachel began to feel a sense of satisfaction.
As Rachel and her group were leaving, Nigel nearly bowed to Eric. “Mr. Riley, meeting you today is an honor. Might you have some time to spare? Ourpany could greatly benefit from awyer like you…”
But before he could finish his request, Eric interjected, “Not a chance.” His response was clear and firm, leaving no space for further discussion.
As Sabrina stepped out of the elevator and down the stairs, she rushed to catch up with Eric, eager not to let him go.
Reaching him, she extended her hand, her voice quivering with excitement, “Hello, Mr. Riley, I’m Sabrina kely, aw student. You’ve been a role model for me. I’ve studied yourndmark cases in school. You’re truly incredible. There are hardly any pictures of you online, which is why I didn’t recognize you earlier. Still, I have a great deal of respect for you.”
Her admiration was rooted more in professionalism than personal interest. Natalia observed the scene with a grin and said, “Look at you, Eric, bing someone’s idol. She seems to really admire you!”
