Chapter 118
Suzy’s face darkened. “What do you mean? Didn’t you say you’d agree to a settlement if I apologized?”
“We said we wanted you to record an apology video, post it online, and clarity that my friend is not a mistress,” Moira said coldly.
Her eyes fixed on the woman across from her as she continued, “Not only did you hit my friend, but you also ruined her reputation and career. Shouldn’t you clarify it to the public?”
Suzy had assumed that a private apology would suffice and she could protect herself without angering Lily. She hadn’t expected the two young women to keep pushing their demands.
“Mr. McKay,” Moira added, turning to the lawyer, her delicate face frosty, “my friend’s stance has been clear from the start. We don’t want money. We just want an apology. Is that really so difficult!”
Henry wiped the sweat from his forehead with a handkerchief. Despite Suzy’s furious glare, he advised, “Mrs. Williard, Ms. Rodriquez did say that. I think their request is reasonable.
“To resolve this quickly, it’s best to do what they’re asking. Otherwise, if they don’t drop the lawsuit, things will get very complicated?
Suzy stared at Moira, who was pointing her phone at her, ready to record. She didn’t want to humiliate herself, but the alternative was jail. Between humiliation and jail, she reluctantly chose the former.
Grinting her teeth, Suzy repeated the words. “Ms. Rodriquez isn’t the mistress. I wrongfully accused her and hit her wrongly Ms. Rodriquez, I’m really sorry.
The last three words were spat our with barely concealed anger.
Moira wasn’t concerned about whether Suzy’s apology was genuine! Sometimes sincerity could be faked, and Suzy’s reluctance made it all the more satisfying to watch. Moira put away her phone, stood up, and walked over.
Before Suzy could react, Moira raised her hand and slapped her hard twice.
By the time Henry realized what had happened, Moira had already stepped back. “You can leave now
“How dare you hit me!” Suzy roared, lunging toward Moira.
Henry quickly held Suzy back and said. “Mrs. Williard, calm down. Let’s talk this out
“I hired you to solve my problem, not to side with them! Are you working with them?” Suzy snapped, delivering a slap to Henry’s face.
The forty–something man’s expression flickered with anger, but he swallowed it down. “Mrs. Williard, you’ve already apologized. If you act Impulsively now, it’ll undo everything”
“So I’m just supposed to bear with it after she hit met Suzy fumed.
“You hit my friend more than twice!” Moira said coldly.
Suzy glared at her. “She deserved it! Just because I found the wrong person doesn’t mean she isn’t a mistress. Who told her to seduce men
Before she could finish, Zea was so angry that she raised her hand and slapped her a few times.
“Which eye of yours
saw me seducing anyone? You can’t keep your man, so you think every woman is a mistress? Just because I’m prettier than you doesn’t mean you can push me around!” Zea said.
Enraged, Suzy broke free from Henry’s grasp and charged at Zea. “You shameless bitches…”
Moira quickly positioned herself in front of Zea with her phone and threatened, Tm filming this. Don’t you dare lay a finger on her.”
Sury was terrified when she thought of the consequences. Finally, she gritted her teeth and spat, “You’ll pay for thist
She stormed out, snatching the gifts she had brought with her on the way.
Henry sighed in exasperation. “Are you satisfied now?”
“Mrs. Williard wasn’t genuinely apologizing. We won’t accept that,” Moira said flatly.
Henry hesitated. “But

Henry looked at her, disliking her relentlessness but knowing she wasn’t in the wrong. He sighed deeply and said, “I understand,”
