Chaos Girl Rewrites the Script novel Chapter 230

His words sounded like he was giving the Ravenshires face, but it was actually a calculated move to force Caspian onto the moral high ground. With the Everharts and Blackthornes watching, if Caspian didn't handle this fairly, his authority among the elite families would take a massive hit.

Caspian nodded, his gaze drifting over to Graham and Edmund.

Those two were ancient foxes. They had happily cracked jokes earlier, but now that the tension had spiked, they were either intensely focused on their tea or rolling walnuts in their hands, perfectly portraying neutral observers.

Caspian knew he couldn't just sweep this under the rug. He thought for a moment before looking at the three teens.

"She is your elder. Even if she was out of line, you've caused a scene and vented your anger. You need to go apologize to her."

Everyone in the room was a master manipulator. The moment the old man spoke, they caught the hidden meaning. He specifically said 'your elder' referring to her relation to Vivienne and Bianca—meaning Cyril was exempt from apologizing.

The implication was profound.

Reginald lowered his eyes and picked up his teacup.

Back when the Montclairs tried to use Cyril to blackmail Dorian Ravenshire, Caspian had aggressively brought the boy back into the fold. He was willing to risk his son's political career and face public backlash just to slap the Montclairs in the face. Right then, Reginald knew the old patriarch's fangs were as sharp as ever.

No matter how wild Vivienne and Bianca got, they knew when to play along. They obediently nodded. "Understood, Grandpa."

Caspian's gaze then locked onto Vivienne. "They are guests here. Harrison let things slide because of your age, yet you escalated the situation and worsened his injuries. It is only fair that you apologize to him."

An apology was just words. She had already beaten him up, so she wasn't losing anything.

Vivienne nodded vigorously. "Yes, Grandpa."

Caspian saw right through her. He leisurely added, "A verbal apology isn't enough; you need to show sincerity. While Harrison is recovering, his medical and nutritional expenses will be deducted from your monthly allowance."
