Lauren glared furiously at Josefina who was standing behind Oliver, while Ruby stepped forward and helped her to her feet.

With gritted teeth, Lauren spat out, "Josefina, you've ruined Ruby's celebration dinner. You've made a laughingstock of our family. How can you still have the nerve to hide behind a man?"
