Chapter 277
Alice had no desire to apologize.
Madyson made such a fuss on purpose. It seemed like the charity sale event might not proceed as planned. It would also become a laughingstock within the social circle.
Ethan was staring at Alice.
Chloe egged her on, “Alice, you did a poor job organizing this event. You should apologize to Mrs. Yates. She’s magnanimous and won’t hold it against you if you do.”
Chloe thought, “If Alice offended Madyson, how could I ever win Madyson’s favor in the future? What is this stupid Alice proud of?”
Alice walked up to Madyson and said, “Sorry, Mrs. Yates. I didn’t think things through. If you’re not satisfied with the dessert, I’ll go prepare something else right away.”
“Something else? That would just make it seem like I’m special, wouldn’t it?”
Madyson’s eyes were filled with disdain. She disliked how the Welch family was always trying to climb the social ladder.
Chloe tried to please her, saying, “Mrs. Yates, what would it take to make you feel better? Alice will do anything she can.”
“Is that so?”
Madyson glanced at the dessert on the floor and said to Alice, “You think the dessert is so good, right? If you pick it up and eat it, I won’t hold it against you for humiliating me just now.”
Alice looked at the dessert covered in dust on the floor. She knew Madyson was deliberately making things difficult for her.
Ethan frowned and said, “Mrs. Yates, isn’t that a bit inappropriate?”
Noah walked over from behind, defending Alice.“Mrs. Yates, Alice is young and made a mistake,

Madyson’s expression changed instantly.“So this is how you apologize? Then there’s nothing more to talk about.”
“Ethan, say something.”
Chloe picked up the dessert, put it on a plate, and handed it to Alice.“I think the middle clean. Just take a bite, and Mrs. Yates would let it pass, right?”

Madyson showed a mocking expression.“Right, I’m not that petty.”
She also wanted to see just how far the Welch family would go to ingratiate themselves with the Yates family.
Noah glared at Chloe.“Are you crazy? Take it away!”
He thought, “How dare she force Alice to eat something picked up from the floor?”

“Noah, I’m just doing what’s best for our family, Echen, don’t you agree? Chloe extremely hared Alice. If she had been in charge of the event today, she wouldn’t have Afended Madyson
Ethan hesitated for a moment and then glanced at the dessert “Alice, deal with the mess you made,
It was also a good lesson for Alice not to mess up with some people in Washington
She couldn’t even afford to offend the Garcia family, let alone the Yates family.
Noah’s face darkened. “Ethan, have you lost your mind too?
He thought, “How could they expect Alice to eat something picked up from the floor? Won’t that make our family look bad? What do they think Alice is?”
Chloe actively scooped up some dessert with a spoon and said to Alice, “This bite is clean. Go ahead. Take it.”
She thought, “Haha, Alice is finally humiliated.
“Isn’t Alice so proud? Let’s see if she dares to offend someone from the Yates family.
“Ha, this is really hilarious. Is this how the Welch family treats each other?”
Amber walked out just in time to see them forcing Alice to eat the cake. She became so angry.
Amber had assumed that Alice would be protected by the Welch brothers, but only one of them defended her, and the other did nothing.
The gossip about the siblings turned out to be true.
Amber stormed over and pressed the dessert onto Chloe’s face.“Since you like it so much, you eat it yourself.”
This scene instantly stunned everyone around.
Alice didn’t expect this wealthy woman to stand up for her.
Chloe was even more shocked. She screamed, yelling at Amber, “How dare you lay a hand on me? Do know who I am?”
you
She was furious because she had especially put on light makeup today, and now it was ruined. Chloe started crying and complaining to Ethan, “Ethan, look! I told you Alice knows this old woman. She even encouraged her to attack me!”
Ethan became alarmed upon seeing Amber.
He didn’t expect the person who had gone to the lounge earlier to be Amber.
Ethan slapped Chloe across the face.“What nonsense are you talking about? Apologize right
now!”
“Ethan, this old woman attacked me. Why should I apologize?” Chloe felt wronged. Ethan’s head was buzzing with rage. He grabbed Chloe’s wrist. “I said apologize right away!”

Chloe was alarmed by Ethan’s look.“Ethan, why are you so harsh?”
She thought, “This is just an old woman. She can’t be a big shot, right?”
Meral
Madyson walked over and linked arms with Amber affectionately.“Mrs. Wilson, I haven’t seen you around. I assumed you might have left because you felt the charity sale event was too low for our social status,”
“I wasn’t feeling well, so I rested in the lounge for a while.”
Amber said sarcastically, “I don’t deserve the apology from the Welch family.”
Ethan looked embarrassed. He quickly explained, “Mrs. Wilson, I’m really sorry. I didn’t know you came today. We apologize for our inappropriate behavior.
At the mention of Mrs. Wilson, Chloe felt panicked. She said in tremor, “Ethan, you mean she’s the lady from the Wilson family?”
Ethan looked at Chloe.“Yes, that’s right. Do you know how much trouble you’ve caused me?”
Chloe nearly lost her balance when she heard Ethan’s response. She was unaware that Amber would be visiting today.
Chloe thought, “What should I do? It seems like I’ve offended her.”
Ethan continued to explain, “Mrs. Wilson, my sister is simple–minded and speaks without thinking. Please don’t take it to heart.”
“Your sister? I remember the Welch family only had one daughter. Where did another sister come from?” Amber’s words were filled with mockery.
Ethan hesitated for a moment before answering, “Chloe is also my sister, but she’s adopted.” “An adopted sister acts so arrogantly. If someone didn’t know the truth, they would assume she was biological and Alice was adopted.”
Alice felt this statement was somewhat familiar. Someone had said something similar before.
Amber was clearly in favor of Alice.
In a panic, Chloe blurted out, “Mrs. Wilson, I had no idea who you were earlier. I didn’t mean to offend
you. But Alice did make a mistake. We weren’t deliberately bullying her.” “Isn’t it deliberately bullying to make Alice eat something picked up from the floor? Very well!” Amber grabbed the dessert from the table and threw it onto the floor, looking at Chloe and saying, “Now you pick it up and eat it.”
Chloe’s expression changed instantly. She thought, “How could I eat something off the floor?”
Chloe turned to look at Ethan for help.
Ethan bit the bullet, saying, “Mrs. Yates, isn’t this going too far?”
“You know it’s going too far? Then why didn’t you say that when Alice was being forced to eat it? What kind of brother are you?”

He didn’t expect that the person Alice had been taking care of would be Amber
Now Ethan regretted not going to the lounge to take a look earlier. If he had this wouldn’t have happened.
“Well, now I want your adopted sister to learn a lesson too.”
Amber snorted coldly, glancing at the dessert on the floor. “If she doesn’t eat it, your family can think about the consequences.”
