They were so loud and cruel that Millie almost drowned in it. Then, her eyes searched for Rhea until she found her. She had clearly underestimated to what extent Rhea was willing to go just to break her. She thought the cunning woman. would at least take a break at the banquet.
She was clearly mistaken. To worsen things, Rhea smiled at Millie, knowing very well that Millie had figured out her hand in this. “Mr. Thomas, I’m surprised that your wife is so jealous. But Lara has hurt her knee. Ican’t leave it at that.” Johnnie looked at Marcus questioningly.

On hearing this, Marcus frowned at her.
Johnnie held his daughter back and motioned for her to stop. She was acting so recklessly, without thinking about the consequences.
However, Lara was naive and didn’t understand why her dad was holding her back.
She shook off his hand, limped to Millie and pointed at her nose.
“Listen to me, you freak of nature. You will kneel down and apologize toat once!”

Johnnie hissed again, and scolded her in a low voice, “Are you nuts? She is Marcus’ wife. Keep this up and you'll ruin our family.” “That’s nonsense! She’s the one who pushed me!” Decidedly, Lara’s stubbornness and anger prevented her from seeing reason. Johnnie stole a glance at Marcus’ cold and hard face. He could already see what was going to befall them. In fear, he shook his daughter harder and warmed, “You need to control your anger if you want to keep living the life you are living.”
That seemed to sober Lara up. She stopped and realized the consequences of her actions. She was still greatly resentful towards Millie, but she controlled herself and asked, “Is it wrong forto ask her to apologize?” ©
Johnnie glanced quickly at the crowd that had gathered, then at Lara’s scratched knee. He was both angry and frustrated. He didn’t want to offend Marcus, but he also didn’t want to look like a coward that couldn’t defend what was his.
“Mr. Thomas, I’m sorry for my daughter’s reckless behaviour. However, she is right. Your wife pushed her and got her hurt. How will you resolve this issue?” Marcus didn’t do anything for a moment. Then, his gaze shifted towards Millie.
Millie understood the message in them and stepped forward.
