Chapter 391

"Everyone, calm down. Stop arguing."

The moment Lionel spoke, the room fell silent.

With his commanding presence, few people dared to meet Lionel's gaze.

Effie slipped out from her hiding spot in the corner and walked over to Mrs. McKenzie. "Thank you, Mrs. McKenzie."

Mrs. McKenzie waved her hand dismissively. "No need to thank me. This was all my fault to begin with. If I hadn't dragged you along to watch the commotion, you wouldn't have been caught up in it."

Effie smiled. "Still, thank you for standing up for me even if it doesn't bother me anymore."

Mrs. McKenzie seemed to realize something and replied, "If you're not bothered anymore, that's good. I'm glad."

"It's getting late. I'll come visit again another time," Effie said with a smile.

"Don't forget to bring your gift home," Mrs. McKenzie reminded her.

"I won't."

Effie brought the gift Mrs. McKenzie had prepared back home and finally opened it there.
