Later, Rachel put on her makeup and went to get a finer wine to make up with Caden. Her eyes were swollen and red. “Mr. Ward, I would like to propose a toast in your honor. Otherwise, Randolph will have my head.”

Caden kept a stoic attitude and took a sip of wine. This one was considerably stronger than the last. As it went down his throat, he won slightly.

Rachel filled a glass for Alicia. “Miss Bennett…”

Rachel's voice was as weak and pitiful as before. Fighting back her tears, she said, "I'm most to blame for today. I'm truly sorry; please forgive me." To Alice, such a plea sounded like moral blackmail.

After being slapped, Rachel now approached her humbly. If Alicia chose to remain resentful, it would only paint her as unreasonable.

After a few seconds of silence, Alicia finally raised her glass. Caden looked in her direction and gently pushed it under the table.

Alice recognized the warning. He was silently warning her not to drink. But she replied bluntly: “Why did you kick me?”

Caden was momentarily speechless. Alicia picked up her glass and turned to Rachel. “I can't have wine, so I'll have water instead.” She then replaced the wine with water.

Rachel's expression tightened momentarily, although it was hard to tell because of her swollen cheek. “I really appreciate that, Mrs. Bennett.”

Rachel closed her eyes and drank the wine. Her face immediately flushed.

Alicia responded with a small sip of water, feeling a little uncomfortable under the gaze of the room. Rachel quickly turned away, embarrassed to be the center of attention. She walked over to Randolph, who was standing a short distance away, and leaned gently against him.
