The Broken Warrior’s Daughter by Cooper

Lily looked around, taking in the circle of onlookers.

When she saw that everyone was watching with a look of anticipation for the drama, and not a single person intended to speak up for her, her heart sank.

Noticing Lily, the main party involved, looking at them, a hint of disdain flashed in the eyes of the surrounding crowd.

"What are you looking at us for, Miss Lily? Surely you don't want to kneel and apologize to Miss Harriet, do you? After all, it was you who proposed the bet. Tsk tsk, you can't afford to lose, right?" "Losing isn't an option for the lady of the Lynch family, is it? I think Miss Lily believes that Miss Harriet actually cheated and is still deluded into thinking she did nothing wrong. How shameless she is!" Listening to the sarcastic comments from the crowd, Lily felt like crying.

She bit her lower lip tightly, her hands clenched into fists, looking pitiful enough to evoke sympathy.

But no one present felt any compassion for her.

Lily was about to make another excuse to clear her name.

But Delbert seemed to see right through Lily's thoughts.
