Robert spoke very softly, while Aylin was focused on savoring her coffee and dessert, not noticing anything unusual about Robert.
“Ms. Koch.”
Before Robert could finish speaking, John appeared before them solemnly, bowed politely, and said, “Ms. Koch, Sariah is here and would like to see you.”
John’s face soured, his expression filled with disgust at the mere mention of the name. This woman is malicious at heart! Surely, she’ll cause Ms. Koch more trouble!
Robert also frowned, a fierce glint flashing in his eyes, “How dare she come!”
Aylin, on the other hand, was much calmer. She elegantly put down the grapes.
“Bring her in.”
In no time, Sariah, clutching the hem of her dress, took small steps and shuffled in, looking quite uneasy. She timidly stopped and stood in front of Aylin.
“Aylin, Aylin, I’m sorry…” The voice was as faint as a mosquito’s buzz.
Robert found her pretentious behavior annoying. On the surface, she acted submissive and cautious, but behind the scenes, she was more ruthless than anyone else.
“Can’t you speak up? Do you have something foul stuck in your throat?”
Sariah suddenly choked up, her face turning a mixture of pale and green.
Ever since she was little, she had always admired how Aylin was pampered by Robert. She had tried to win Robert’s favor, but the way he looked at her was as if he was looking at garbage, which made her hate him to death.
Why does he only consider Aylin as his sister? What’s wrong with her?
Gritting her teeth, Sariah forced herself to show a face full of apology and whispered, “Aylin, I came today to take the initiative to admit my mistake.
That interview, they suddenly came up to me and started asking questions. Without thinking, I just mentioned what I saw at the banquet. I didn’t expect it to become a trending topic and cause trouble for Aylin. I… I’m truly sorry…”
Aylin’s beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, as she coolly scrutinized her.
“So what?”
Sarlah didn’t dare to look into her eyes, feeling anxious and unable to stand still.
Seeing a coffee pot and coffee cup on the table, she hurriedly poured a cup of coffee for Aylin to hide her panic. “So, Aylin, I… I really know I was wrong. Please have some coffee and don’t be angry with me. I was just thoughtless; please don’t hold it against me…”
Sariah was desperately holding onto a pitiful expression, but in her heart, she was so furious that she could almost crush her teeth!
If it weren’t for Aylin turning the situation around in an instant, would she have come to apologize?
Dream on!
It’s just that those who understand the times are considered outstanding, and to avoid being beaten up again by this vicious woman, she took the initiative to clear the relationship first.
Seeing Aylin not speaking, Sariah bravely brought the coffee cup to Aylin’s lips and respectfully said, “Aylin, please have some coffee.”
Robert had seen far too many of these double-dealing tricks, and Sariah’s clumsy tactics seemed like child’s play to him.
He didn’t bother to expose the truth again, anyway, Aylin knew it in her heart.
Sariah and Aylin were extremely close to each other. Aylin looked down at Sariah from a higher position, staring at her intensely, making Sariah feel so guilty that she could hardly hold herself together.
The woman leisurely took the coffee cup.
“Sariah…” Aylin’s red lips closed together, her smile faint, as she gently said to her, “You’d better not have done anything.”
Her smile was beautiful, and up close, her skin was radiant and fair, like smooth, creamy porcelain. However, her eyes didn’t share the warmth of her smile, giving her a slightly cold and distant aura.
