Captive Hearts: The Tycoon's Ugly Bride

Chapter 43 Apologize on Your Knees

Chapter 43 Apologize on Your Knees

Blanche narrowed her eyes. The two women who had just lied stood on either side of Cathy.

Upon closer inspection, Blanche found that Cathy had a triumphant smile on her face. Blanche suddenly understood that this was a plot designed by Cathy.

"Someone pushed me just now, so I lost my balance and accidentally bumped into Miss Back. I didn't mean it."

The woman who had just lied retorted again, "Humph, how shameless you are. We clearly saw what happened, but you try to deny it. Of course, with Mr. Herbart backing you up, you can play innocent, and we can only let you go. But it really makes us uncomfortable. Don't think I don't know that you're jealous of Miss Back because she's prettier than you. You're jealous of every girl who's prettier than you because you're ugly."

Someone sighed.

"Oh, that's really terrible. She is born ugly, so she's jealous of others."

"I didn't expect Mrs. Herbart to be so narrow-minded. We have to stay away from her in the future."

"Didn't you hear that? Mr. Herbart was going to marry Nicole who was gentle and virtuous, but Blanche drugged Nicole and pretended to be Nicole to marry Mr. Herbart. She can't be more vicious."

......

The discussion grew louder, threatening to drown out Blanche.

Blanche looked at Cathy, her expression icy. She had underestimated Cathy's malicious methods. Cathy even schemed against her at the banquet.

Cathy knew that Blanche had figured out that she was behind this.

But she wasn't afraid at all. She provocatively smiled at Blanche.

"Mr. Herbart, your wife's jealousy is really surprising. Jolin's knees are bruised. Please give us an explanation."

"Dad, explanation? Why do you have to speak in such a mild tone? I want her to apologize to me on her knees right now. I've never been so wronged since I was a child."

Apologize on her knees?

Louis's eyes grew cold.

Ryan's heart skipped a beat and he grabbed Jolin who was foolishly demanding justice without considering the situation.

But Jolin didn't realize her father's worry. She broke free and ran over, pointing at Blanche's nose.

"You ugly monster, didn't you hear me? I want you to apologize to me on your knees. Now!"

With that, Jolin lifted her foot to kick Blanche down.

Blanche's expression was indifferent as she stepped back.

Ryan immediately ran over and pulled Jolin back. She was too reckless and bold.

"Dad, why did you pull me back?"

Ryan lowered his voice.

"Are you crazy? No matter what, she's the wife of the second son of the Herbart family. If you keep acting like this, our Back family will be ruined by you."

"How could it be so serious? Besides, she pushed me."

Stealing a glance at Louis whose face was cold, Ryan warned Jolin.

"It's very serious. If you want to continue living a life of luxury, you need to behave."

Jolin seemed to realize the gravity of the situation now, but she couldn't swallow her pride.

"At least she should apologize to me properly."

With a straight face, Ryan looked at Jolin's scraped knees. His daughter was pushed, and he didn't want to appear weak in front of so many people.

"Mr. Herbart, I apologize for Jolin's rash behavior. But the fact remains that your wife did push my daughter and caused her to fall and injure herself. What do you think about this matter?"

Louis didn't say anything. Instead, he looked at Blanche.

Blanche noticed his gaze and decided to apologize properly.

"Mr. Back, Miss Back did fall because of me. What about this? Let me apologize to her first, and then I'll take her to the hospital for a check-up. I'll cover all the expenses."

Blanche walked up to Jolin and lowered her head to show her sincerity.

"Miss Back..."

Suddenly, Louis pulled her back when she was about to apologize.

"Mr. Back, you mentioned that you wanted to discuss cooperation with the Herbart Group. I happen to have some free time now, so I can listen to your proposal."

Ryan's eyes suddenly widened. What did Louis mean?

For cooperation, he had tried to arrange a meeting with Louis several times before but had failed. He desperately wanted to cooperate with the Herbart Group.

Ryan immediately put on a smile and became respectful.

"That's great. Since you have time, let's talk now. Everyone can disperse. This is a misunderstanding, and Mrs. Herbart has been framed."

Jolin pouted with dissatisfaction.

"Dad, she hasn't apologized to me yet."

Ryan glared at her. How could she be so unreasonable?

What was the use of an apology? Could it earn billions of dollars?

"She didn't do it on purpose. Why not let it go? I'll take you to the medical room first. Don't bring this up again."

Then Ryan turned to look at Louis apologetically.

"Mr. Herbart, please wait. I'll take Jolin to the medical room first."

Immediately, the people around dispersed.

Blanche felt incredulous. She was about to apologize, but why did Louis stop her?

But it was clear that Louis was angry when he pulled her away.

At that moment, her arm was painful.

Louis's sharp eyes were indeed fixed on Blanche the next moment.

"Did you want to embarrass her just because she's prettier than you? Blanche, you're really something. Look around you carefully. Who isn't prettier than you here? Are you going to push them all down next?"

Blanche was silent for a moment. Then she raised her head, stared at Louis's angry face, and sneered.

"I thought you were a bit smarter than others and knew this was a trap, but I was wrong. You didn't have to pull me just now. I was ready to apologize to her."

"Apologize by saying arrogant words like last time? D*mn it! Are you worth trusting? Don't think I don't know that you kept pestering Henry earlier. Why? Are you trying to seduce him?"

Blanche froze. Did he still remember the last time?

But last time, she was retaliating against Cathy, and he helped Cathy without knowing the whole story and asked her to apologize. Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

Things were different this time.

She just said a few words to Henry, but Louis said she seduced Henry. Several women were trying to talk to Louis at the banquet, but he replied to them, didn't he? Why didn't he say that he was lusting after other women's beauty?
