Chapter 46

Chapter 46:

Eileen wasn’t certain if Megan’s outburst was related to Vivian. All she knew was that the disturbance had garnered disapproving looks from the crowd. The Warren family wouldn’t be pleased if Vivian’s birthday party was ruined.

Eileen wasn’t acquainted with Megan’s ties to the Warrens. She simply hoped Megan would realize that causing a scene wasn’t appropriate on this occasion.

But evidently, Megan had targeted her. Megan wore a cold smirk and said, “Quite the attitude. Can you even afford the dress?”

“I’ll compensate you. After Miss Warren’s birthday party concludes, we can discuss it privately,” Eileen proposed.

Megan replied, “I’m not interested in money. I simply want this dress restored to its former glory.”

Eileen furrowed her brow. “Then after dinner, I’ll take it to the dry cleaner.”

“Nope,” Megan toyed with her hair, signaling her intent to make things difficult for Eileen.

“So, how do you suggest we resolve this?” Eileen inquired.

“Apologize.” Megan glanced around at the onlookers. “It’s rather impolite to create a mess at such a significant event. Don’t you think it’s customary for you to apologize?”

Among the crowd, some frowned disapprovingly at Megan’s behavior, while others observed with keen interest. Vivian stood alongside her parents, seemingly indifferent to the situation. She refrained from intervening or gloating. A hint of irony danced in her eyes as she chuckled inwardly. There was no need for her to dirty her hands. She knew Eileen wouldn’t dare to offend anyone present.

“Apologies. I accidentally dirtied your dress and shoes. I hope you can forgive me,” Eileen said.

The prospect of footing the bill stung. If a simple apology could resolve the issue, Eileen saw no need to stand her ground. She had encountered and handled similar situations before. Dealing with these sorts of matters was like a walk in the park for her.

Vivian, apparently taken aback by Eileen’s swift apology, pressed her lips together.

Megan froze, blinking. “That’s it?”

Eileen raised an eyebrow, offering a smile to Megan.

“Megan.” Beside Megan, Megan’s mother stood alongside Vivian’s mother, Debby. Observing Debby’s displeased expression, she grew annoyed that Megan had irked the Warren family by causing a scene at Vivian’s birthday celebration.

“It’s alright, Auntie. It’s just a minor issue. Let’s resolve it swiftly. After all, the dinner party is to celebrate. Let’s go try. Otherwise, the ambiance will be ruined,” Vivian interjected, aiming to reassure Megan.
