Married a Secret Billionaire novel Chapter 815

Victoria scowled as well.

Allegra was the pawn she had prepared to attack Cordelia, but she did not expect the pawn to be this useless, being countered in just a few sentences and getting embarrassed in front of the other heiresses!

Cordelia was also to be blamed for being a sharp-tongued monster!

Victoria bit her lips. Keeping a straight face, she feigned sternness as she looked at Allegra. "Cousin, have you had too much to drink? What nonsense are you talking about in front of everyone!?"

"Your Highness, I—"

"Apologize to Ms. Irwin!"

Allegra was indignant but understood it when she saw Victoria's look. She smiled and politely approached Cordelia with a glass to say, "Sorry, Cordelia. I just say what's on my mind without thinking. I don't mean anything bad!"

Cordelia remained calm and composed.

"You know what, Cordelia? This toast is for you. Consider it my formal apology to you, okay?"

When Cordelia looked at Allegra, she had already raised her glass. The other heiresses were staring at her as if she would be the insensible one if she did not accept the apology now.

She smiled. Well-behaved children rarely got consolation candies. One reaped what they sowed in this world. It was better to play the game till the end.

"A formal apology?" She emphasized each word. "A formal apology has its rules in Southeast Aciatic… Are you planning to gloss it over with just a glass of wine, Ms. Oliver?"

Allegra froze, not expecting Cordelia to know the local customs and rules so well when she had not been there for long.

Cordelia was right. According to their rules, there was a difference between an apology and a formal apology. A formal apology required one to visit the other party with gifts and, if necessary, get on their knees to ask for forgiveness.

Cordelia looked at her with a small smile.
