Looking at that detestable face of the past, Dustin frowned. He had expected to encounter familiar faces at this
place. And the whole reason he disguised himself was to avoid having his identity exposed.
However, he never expected to cross paths with Florence and her group in such an unfortunate manner.
Fortunately, she didn’t recognize him. Intending to diffuse the situation, Dustin apologized, “I’m sorry for not paying
attention just now. Are you hurt?
“Hmph! You must be blind!”
Florence dusted herself off as she got up from the ground. She shouted arrogantly, “Do you know who I am? How
dare you run into me? You must be tired of living!”
Her social standing was no longer what it was before. Anyone who offended her now was essentially seeking their
demise.

when you were the one who ran into us? “Abigail was indignant.
“Who the hell are you? How dare you point fingers at me?”
Florence glared at Abigail, her tone becoming more aggressive. “I order you to apologize to me right now and
compensate me for my mental distress. Otherwise, I’ll make sure you regret it!”
“Haha… Trying to intimidate us, are we? If we don’t, what are you going to do about it?” Abigail smirked.
“You wench! How dare you talk back? Do you know what I’m going to do to you?” Florence was aggressive.
“A word of advice-apologize and pay up. Otherwise, you’ll be in big trouble!” Suddenly, Julie, who was standing
beside Florence, spoke up.
The Moseys’ mansion was their territory. No matter the person, everyone was expected to obediently comply with
their orders.
“I’m sorry for my carelessness. I hope you won’t hold it against us. I’m willing to compensate for your distress,”
Dustin said humbly.
Under normal circumstances, he wouldn’t have backed down. However, he had more important things to attend to
today and was eager to pull himself out of this situation and this shrew of a woman.
“Your apology won’t cut it! She needs to apologize too!”
Florence pointed at Abigail and demanded, “She was disrespectful to me earlier and must be responsible for her
actions!”
“Abigail, apologize,” Dustin signaled.
“Fine, I was wrong. I spoke out of turn and offended you. I’m sorry, okay?” Abigail apologized reluctantly.
“Hmph! Do you think a simple apology is enough? What do you take me for?”
Florence cocked her head up and demanded arrogantly, “I want you to kneel and apologize to me. Then slap

Dustin frowned. This shrew was really pushing it. Did she really think she was nobility?
“Hey! I’m warning you. Don’t push it.” Abigail narrowed her eyes. If Florence didn’t appreciate her apology, she
didn’t mind giving her a lesson.
“Hmph! So what if I do? I’m a distinguished guest here, and my daughter is Sir Mosey’s goddaughter.” What makes
you insignificant people think you can challenge me?” Florence asked, hands on her hips.
The commotion had attracted the attention of quite a few people. And the distinguished guests had broken out into
whispers.
“Lady, it’s Sir Mosey’s birthday celebration today. We bear no grudges against each other, so how about we resolve
this peacefully? We wouldn’t want to spoil Sir Mosey’s mood,” Dustin tried to persuade her.
“Cut the crap! I told you to apologize! Don’t make me lose my temper!” Florence screamed, completely
disregarding the occasion.
“If you insist on being this unreasonable, I have nothing more to say. I have a clear conscience, and I di refuse to
believe you will make a scene here,” Dustin stated coldly.
He had been extremely tolerant, even lowering himself to apologize.
