"Sweetheart, get up. We're going to the hospital..."
Stephanie blinked in confusion. "The hospital? For what?"
"To apologize to Mrs. Klein."
Her face instantly turned frosty. "Apologize to her? No way! She doesn’t deserve it!"
Sebastian rubbed his temples, a hint of a headache forming. "I know she doesn't, which is exactly why we need to go."
"I refuse! If she doesn't deserve it, why should I apologize? No way, I won't!"
Sebastian couldn't help but laugh at her stubbornness, pinching her chubby cheek in exasperation. "If we don't apologize, how are we going to settle the score with the Kleins?"
"Wait, settle the score?"
"Should the future CEO of Skyline Corp, my wife, be so easily offended? Should my mother-in-law be publicly humiliated by Mrs. Klein without consequence? Since they didn't learn their lesson at the hospital last time... this time, we’ll give them a lesson they won’t forget!"
Stephanie gazed at him, lost. "Huh? Is that how we play it? Kill them with kindness and then strike?"
Sebastian chuckled, ruffling her hair. "So you realize your own reckless behavior now, do you?"
"I know... but I don't regret it. Given the chance, I'd do it all over again."
"Darling, I've looked into it. Mrs. Klein had her bodyguard strike first... You’re in the right, which means you've got every reason to go on the offensive."
"So... do you sit here sobbing, or do you come with me?"
Stephanie stood up immediately, linking her arm with his and nuzzling against him. "I'll follow my Silver Fox!"
Sebastian, feigning disgust, withdrew his arm. "Stop that... you're getting snot and tears all over me."
She clung to his arm anyway, unabashedly using his sleeve like a handkerchief.
