Lena sneered at Renee, but Arya took the question seriously.

Chris held Lena's hand, ready to depart. As he walked past Arya, he whispered, "Are you really starting to figure things out now? She's obviously settling old and new grudges! Our Lenny doesn't need to suffer any more injustice here!"

Arya halted them both by grabbing their hands and smiling innocently at the group. "Wait, don't go! We don't know how the ring ended up in this bag. Let's just put it on me!"

"What?" Renee was greatly surprised.

Lena was equally shocked and about to defend Arya, but the latter stepped before her.

"Consider it my mistake!" Arya chuckled. "Renee, I'm truly sorry. I found this ring and meant to return it to you, but then I forgot and gave the bag to Lena... It's all a misunderstanding. I hope you can forgive me!"

Renee's eyes widened in shock, finding it hard to believe.

Arya smiled casually, and the other guests, showing respect for her as the Bayer heiress, refrained from commenting.

Even Toph chuckled. "Since it's a misunderstanding, let's just leave it at that. Arya, be more careful next time!"

Cordelia looked at the group of kids and said, "Alright. Now that the ring has been found, you should enjoy yourselves. Don't let this spoil the good mood!"

Everyone yelled in unison, "Yes, ma'am!"

"Hey!" Zephyr protested. "That's my line. Switch it up!"

Peals of laughter echoed among the crowd. The birthday party returned to its lively atmosphere as if nothing had happened.

Renee stood still, her face tense and her hands trembling as they gripped her dress's edge. Arya unexpectedly calmed the commotion with just a few words!

"Renee?" Toph wanted to wear the ring back on her finger, but she forcefully pushed his hand away.
