The Queen's Back

Chapter 99

"Stephanie, why are you dazed? Say something, Richard urged when he saw Stephanie hesitating to speak, clearly reluctant to apologize.

Meanwhile, Maxwell continued to eat leisurely, even sharing tasty bites with Mona, showing no interest in their

conversation..

Mona was still holding a grudge against Stephanie for what she had done, and she didn't want to greet Stephanie at all She calmly continued eating her food. Stephanie, recalling her promise to Richard, looked at Maxwell and reluctantly said, "I'm sorry"

There was no precedent for elders to apologize to their juniors. Such a thing would make anyone laugh.

After Stephanie spoke. Richard turned to Maxwell and said, "Maxwell, your grandmother didn't mean it. She apologized. Please forgive her this time."

"She's not just apologizing to me. She should apologize to Mona even more," Maxwell replied coolly.

What he meant was that Stephanie should apologize to Mona.

If his willpower wasn't strong enough and he had gotten involved with Lydia, he would despise himself for life.

If the drugging had truly worked, the one who would suffer the most would be Mona.

Stephanie's nails dug tightly into her palms, her teeth clenched together. She felt an overwhelming reluctance to apologize to Maxwell. Now, she had to apologize to Mona as well. There was simply no way she could bring herself to do it.

If it hadn't been for Mona ruining Stephanie's plans last night, Stephanie and Lydia would have succeeded already. And right now, they would have been dealing with Maxwell and Mona's divorce. Stephanie wouldn't have to apologize at all.
