Mason glanced at Cindy and said, "You’re indeed really nosy."
"Y-You..." Cindy looked at them with an incredulous look.
I regretted staying. I was simply giving myself trouble.
I looked at Zedd and said indifferently, "Miss Reed interrupted me just now, so let me finish my sentence. Everything happened so long ago and isn't something that can't be forgiven. I’m fine with it even if you don’t apologize. I didn't take it to heart at all. If you’re sincere about acknowledging me as Theo's wife, then I'll treat you with the same sincerity."
After a pause, I continued, "I don’t care why this brainless rule was established, but I'll not let you hurt yourself in order to apologize."
Zedd looked at me in a daze, not saying a word for a very long time.
Theo pulled me up. "Since Wanda refuses to accept this method of apology, then forget about it. I don't think I'm joining you for dinner anymore. Enjoy your meal."
"Why?" Cindy's eyes were scarlet. "Who is she to break the rules, Theowy? Is she more important to you than
all of us combined?"
I gritted my molars. "You're truly nuts."
Before Cindy said anything, I said first, "Let me ask you a question, then. Will you insist on having Theo drink ten glasses of wine if he were to make a mistake?"
Cindy's complexion paled.
