Now that Master Collins had the upper hand, he had to show off.

Other than those who Master Collins invited on purpose, other family friends attended as well.

One of them was the Dormer family.

Two members of the Dormer family came. They were Master Dormer and Zaydon.

Minerva bumped into Zaydon when Maddox left to change Jelly Bean's diaper.

They were taken aback the moment they met.

As Minerva had witnessed Monica's crazy behaviors. It was as if she was mentally ill. On the other hand, Zaydon... was still reasonable.

However, Minerva wasn't particularly fond of Zaydon either, so she only smiled faintly at him.

On the contrary, Zaydon seemed to have let bygones be bygones. He quickly walked to her with a glass of wine in his hand.

"Mrs. Yardley."

Minerva was stunned for a moment. She nodded at him. "Mr. Dormer."

"Congratulations."

"Thank you."

It was an awkward conversation. Just as Minerva was about to find an excuse to leave, Zaydon suddenly said, "What my sister did back then was absolutely absurd. I would like to apologize to you on her behalf."

Zaydon's seriousness and sincerity made Minerva feel somewhat embarrassed. Since he had humbled himself, wouldn't she seem petty if she held a grudge?
