Ralph immediately panicked and hurriedly said, "Master Jeffrey, it's just a misunderstanding. Fatima is young and doesn't know better. Please forgive her."
Then he turned to the still-dazed Fatima and scolded, "Apologize quickly!"
Fatima felt utterly frustrated.
She was the one who had been hit, yet she was the one being told to apologize! But facing Jeffrey, she had no choice but to bow her head.
After all, the Patel Family meant nothing in front of him.
Moreover, she had heard that Rachel had moved out of the Gray Family's house and was living in a small rented place.
She should have been dumped by Jeffrey, so why was he still protecting her?
Could it be that Jeffrey brought Rachel to this party today?
Fatima was filled with questions, but no one was there to answer them.
She awkwardly got up from the ground, reluctantly preparing to apologize and get it over with when Rachel said, "No need. I don't need that apology."
