Chapter 1493


    Although Lindsay was ady from a renowned family, Arabe''smanding presence had her


    cornered.


    "What''s the problem? It''s not like I bumped into you on purpose."


    "Did I say you bumped into me?"


    Lindsay was suddenly at a loss for words.


    "So you know you bumped into someone, apologize," Arabe 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 I take matters into my own hands?"


    "I''m a guest invited by Mr. Albright. I dare you."


    Arabe stepped forward, her icy re making Lindsay instinctively step back.


    "Grandpa Eugene invited you?"


    Another step from Arabe, 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 Arabe''s gaze, but her courage faltered after just a couple of


    seconds and she backed down, "Thatment 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, became frustrated, "It was just a small bump,


    no need to be so aggressive. It''s not like you''re missing a piece of flesh."


    Arabe stepped forward again, leaving Lindsay with nowhere to go but the corner.


    Arabe stepped on her foot, cutting off Lindsay''sint, "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 Arabe, "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 ident,


    and you two are even now."


    "She bumped into me twice, and I only stepped on her once. Are we even?" Arabe wouldn''t budge,


    her cold eyes fixed on Lindsay.


    "Lindsay, just apologize to her," Madeline sensed Arabe 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 Arabe, 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 home teach you? Need me to 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. I did it on purpose earlier. It won''t happen again."


    "Was that so hard?" Arabe shot her a callous look and turned to walk away.


    Lindsay watched her walk off, tears welling up, ready to y the victim in front of Eugene, hoping he


    would take her side.


    After all, she had "identally" bumped into Arabe, and Arabe had insisted on stepping on her


    foot and demanding an apology.


    If Eugene knew how petty and narrow-minded Arabe 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.
