Being Pursued By Ex-husband

Chapter 462 Loose Tongue

Bianca turned and pinched Cecily right after Samuel left. "Are you out of your mind? Our company's situation is bad enough as it is, and here you are, making things worse! Why did you offend those people?"

Gasping in pain, Cecily looked at her mother pitifully. "I didn't do anything to offend them!"

"Why did he show up at our house if you didn't do anything?"

Cecily stammered, hesitant to tell the truth. It wasn't until Bianca slapped her gently as a warning that she explained the ins and outs. "W-When I went to the auction last night, I saw Sophia and Samuel there, so I told Xena and the rest about this. I've already warned them that this information should be kept between us! I didn't expect them to spread the rumors!"

Bianca looked at Cecily with mixed feelings of disappointment and frustration as she hit the latter. "There's no point trying to explain anything now. Mr. Schild has made himself clear. Go get ready. We need to apologize to Sophia."

Cecily was reluctant to do so. Sophia had caught Cecily and her friend badmouthing her yesterday noon, and now that something similar happened, Cecily was naturally unwilling to meet Sophia. Besides, Sophia had already warned her yesterday. Hence, the consequences would be dire if the former found out that Cecily was the culprit behind this rumor.

Bianca was enraged when she didn't receive a response from her daughter. "What are you waiting for? Do you think Mr. Schild is joking?"

Seeing that her mother was about to strike her again, Cecily dodged quickly. "It's not that I don't want to apologize to Sophia, but I was gossiping with Xena and the others while we were having lunch yesterday and Sophia caught us red-handed..."

Bianca's face flushed bright red with rage. "I can't believe you! I've already told you to be mindful of your words! Oh, you brats are so ignorant! I swear you're going to be the death of our family sooner or later!"

Cecily was aware that she had made a mistake, so she didn't dare say anything in retort. Both Samuel and Sophia weren't people that the Young family could afford to offend.

She glanced at Bianca. "What should we do now, Mom?"

"Oh, so you're looking to me to solve your problem now? You're pissing me to death!"

Although Bianca was livid, she was always rational when it came to such crises.

Cecily was foolish enough to badmouth others and spread rumors. What's worse, she got caught red-handed, and the subject of her gossip found out about everything. This matter is tricky. Samuel even showed up personally to demand an explanation, so an apology is inevitable. We'll see what happens after we apologize and act accordingly.

"Post an apology statement on Instagram first. Tell Xena to disseminate your apology statement the same way she spread the rumors about Samuel and Sophia."
