The Queen They Buried

Chapter 63

Bryan looked at Aubree, who was watching like she was enjoying a play, and fulfilled the promise he had made earlier. He stood up for her.

“Carmen, I know you’re upset with Aubree, but that doesn’t justify what you did. Apologize to her,” he said in a low and solemn voice, leaving no room for refusal.

Daxton naturally didn’t want to see Carmen bow her head to Aubree.

Bryan knew exactly what he wanted to say. His sharp glance silenced Daxton. Daxton suppressed all his protests.

“If you won’t apologize, I’ll tell Dad everything that happened today.” Bryan threatened coldly when he saw that Carmen didn’t move.

She didn’t want to apologize. She had already been slapped twice and hadn’t even gotten justice for herself, yet now she had to apologize to Aubree. She had never suffered this kind of humiliation.

“Bryan, didn’t she hit me too?” Carmen’s whole face was swollen. She was completely different from her usual delicate appearance, which made others feel sorry for her.

“Didn’t you deserve it?” Bryan was getting impatient. It was just an apology. Besides, this whole mess was Carmen’s fault.

Carmen couldn’t believe her brother would say such a thing to her.

Seeing that Bryan was getting angrier, she realized if she kept stalling, he’d truly lose patience.

Aubree hadn’t left. She felt she deserved this apology. And frankly, she was enjoying watching Carmen being put in her place.

Carmen clenched her hands, walked up to Aubree, and said with unwilling eyes, “Aubree, I’m sorry.”

After she said it, she was probably grinding her molars to dust.

Aubree rubbed her ear. “Sorry for what? Can’t you be more specific?”

“Aubree, don’t go too far!” Daxton was furious.

Aubree shrugged. “I don’t accept this kind of apology. People who know what happened will see you’re apologizing for something you did wrong, but people who don’t might think I’m bullying you.”

‘Isn’t that exactly what’s happening?‘ Daxton couldn’t understand how Aubree could say something so shameless. In his eyes, she was bullying Carmen.

Bryan’s gaze turned cold. “You should be sincere when you apologize. What have you learned in the Wilson family all these years?”
