บท 487: Sincerely Apologized

"Miss Gilwynn, I'm sorry... but you're mistaken if you wish to speak with me. It would be best if you talked to your father. Well, I mean, our father..." Scarlett said, an awkward smile crossing her face.

Theodor and Xander, who were sitting between the two women, exchanged glances as if they were plotting an escape route from the situation.

As the two women continued to gaze at each other, Xander tilted his head toward Scarlett. "I'll go to the library with Theo. You can talk to her..." he whispered. After receiving a slow nod from Scarlett, he asked Theodor to follow him.

"I want to apologize to you, Scarlett..." Maggie said after seeing Xander and Theodor disappear from the room. "I'm truly sorry if my words hurt you. I don't know anything about what happened in the past..." She spoke sincerely.

Scarlett could see the sincerity flash through Maggie's gaze. She slowly believed that Maggie was now telling the truth.
