“I... I can't pay it back now! But at least I'd know the amount!" The girl's eyes flickered, "Don't make it seem like I really need your charity!" Tristan's expression remained calm as he said seriously, “You don't need to pay it back, but there is one thing you must do."

Must do?

A serious feeling.

"What is it? Tell me, and I'll see!" The girl was curious and couldn't help but worry. Would he make some bizarre request?

Tristan wasn't angry. In a friendly tone, he said, "You have to apologize to Claire. After all, you were in the wrong today. It was quite abrupt.” "Oh, that?" Monica thought it was something else. She nodded, agreeing with him.

But hearing it from him made her feel inexplicably uncomfortable. Was he defending that girl? Did he feel sorry for her after she was pulled away?

"Can I ask you a question?" Monica was serious, her smile gone.

“You haven't agreed to what I said.”

"Fine, I agree.” Monica readily accepted, "Next time I see her, I will definitely apologize!" She would have done it even without Tristan's reminder.
