At that moment, Samantha was busy toasting with the other men who were approaching shortly before she bumped into Mary the moment she turned around

“Let’s have a toast, Samantha. I’d like to apologize for what I did to you in the office back then. Mary apologized, but in response, Samantha chuckled coldly, knowing clearly that Mary was putting on a show under the guise of her hypocrisy. Therefore, she decided to ignore her and walk away, but Mary suddenly seized her hand, which was holding the glass of red wine, and poured it all over her own dress before Samantha could react.

“Ah!” Mary screamed in horror.

As Joseph quickly came closer to ie the commotion, Mary took two steps back and fell into his

embrace. “How could you do this to me, Samantha?” she questioned Samantha and blamed her for ruining her banquet dress with the red wine.

On the other hand, Samantha was left standing in a trance while watching Mary feign innocence. This b*tch really deserves an Oscar award for her acting.

“Samantha, I know it’s my fault that I wanted to complain about you, but you can’t do this to me either…” Mary tearfully and bitterly said, trying to make herself look as pitiful as possible. At the same time, every other socialite from the upper–class society in the banquet instantly looked at Mary with sympathy before they gave Samantha a contemptuous look for her despicable actions.

“Apologize, Miss Woodword Joseph’s voice was cold, and his glacial look suggested that he was exasperated.

Samantha gawked at Joseph unhappily, thinking he was jumping to conclusions without understanding what the situation was. After all, it was Mary who caught her hand and made her pour the red wine on her dress. Therefore, Samantha found it unacceptable for her to apologize when she didn’t do anything wrong. “Why should I apologize?” She jutted her chin stubbornly, looking at the man with her firm

gaze.

“It’s alright, Joseph. I’m fine. I can just get changed.” Mary shook her head, seemingly trying to endure her bitterness while pretending to take the moral high ground. I’ll forgive her.”

Samantha clenched her fists. “I don’t need your forgiveness.”

“Samantha, apologize to her at once!” Joseph spoke angrily, his eyes filled with coldness as his forehead was covered in veins.

Samantha gazed at Joseph with her beautiful eyes and chuckled coldly. “I could apologize, but only if she is willing to hear it on her knees.”

On the other hand, Mary felt especially gleeful on the inside that her plan had successfully worked, thanks to her understanding of Samantha’s character ever since they were in primary school. Knowing that Samantha was headstrong and unyielding, Mary was trying to piss her off in front of Joseph, in order to make her look like someone who was unreasonable.

“You…” Joseph’s eyes were filled with rage when they fell upon Samantha.

“Please don’t blame her, Joseph. It was my fault. I was just too clumsy, so don’t worry about me. I’ll be fine. Please don’t come down hard on Samantha. Mary bit her lip, seizing Joseph’s sleeve while acting like she was swallowing her grievance.

Upon hearing what Mary kaid, Samantha felt a strong urge to raise her hand to the former. Soon, the female manager came closer and said, “Miss Seymour, we have prepared a new dress for you. Please come with me.” Mary nodded and followed behind the manager.

Meanwhile, Samantha was able to sense the unpleasant attention around her but decided to bite her lip. and put

up with it. After all, she still hadn’t gotten to see her favorite jewelry and had no plans to leave the place yet.

“Come with me.” The next second, Samantha felt her wrist clamped by Joseph’s firm grip, whereupon she was forcefully taken to a private lounge.

“Let me go. Joseph.” Samantha wanted to free herself but was no match for the man’s superior physical strength.

As soon as they entered the lounge room, Joseph immediately let go of Samantha, who folded her arms. and glared at him. “What’re you doing?!”

Nonetheless, Samantha only glared at the man angrily, standing her ground firmly without showing any signs of backing down. “What’re you going to do if I don’t apologize?” Thinking Mary was Joseph’s girlfriend, Samantha believed he would do everything he must to protect her. Thus, she reckoned it was pointless for her to explain herself.

“Samantha, I know your mom passed away when you were young, but can’t you just behave yourself and treat people nicely? Why must you always be so mean and unreasonable?” Joseph was somehow annoyed, wondering why Samantha couldn’t just stay away from trouble.
