Trinity's face darkened, but I didn't flinch. I had to uphold the truth regardless of feelings. I had to be fair and honest since she had askedabout it.
Ivanna smiled knowingly when she sawfirmly support her without hesitation. She quickly took over the conversation, relievingof my dilemma.
"I can give you a reason, Ms. Trinity," Ivanna spoke up.
Trinity smiled faintly, withdrew her gaze from me, and immediately declined. "No need." Both Lauren and I were somewhat surprised. Lauren immediately interjected, "Ms. Trinity!" Trinity raised her hand to stop Lauren from continuing.
As Lauren and I looked at each other, Trinity got to her feet.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtI thought she was upset and wanted to leave. As I was about to get up to stop her, I saw Trinity do something unexpected to all three of us...
As we were all feeling a bit bewildered, Trinity solemnly approached Ivanna next to her, bent down, and bowed, "I apologize for how I behaved to you, Ms. Ivanna. I'm sorry, I was wrong." Her actions left the three of us dumbfounded.
I was so surprised that I began to doubt if the person who had just bowed and apologized was the notorious Ms. Trinity, who was aloof and fierce.
Ivanna was even more surprised. Her eyes twitched as she looked at Trinity.
She had probably never expected Trinity to apologize to her so solemnly in front of other people.
Why would that tyrant bow to her? After a moment of shock, she reached out to grab Trinity. She stood up heavily and approached Trinity.
"Alright! I'm over it!" She flashed a beautiful smile at Trinity. "I didn't expect you to be so different from the rumors." Trinity looked strained. This was probably the first tshe had ever bowed to someone else.
e I enthusiastically pulled Trinity back to her seat, making her sit at the table. "Alright, your personalities are remarkably similar. We can start fresh from now on! Don't talk about the unpleasant things that happened before. After all, you two didn't really know each other. I hope the four of us will becgood friends, okay?"

Trinity had changed significantly. Her attire today was exquisite, and she wasn't wearing fierce smokey makeup.
That, coupled with her apology just now, was sincere enough to make all three of us look at her differently.
We had never thought that Trinity would ever do this.
After Trinity sat back down, she seemed unwilling to dwell on the matter and turned to me. "Are you still going to Nocturnia?" I collected my emotions and thought for a moment. "I probably won't be going anytsoon." I knew that even if Atlas returned soon, he wouldn't letaccompany him again.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmFirstly, Atlas's health was fine. Secondly, it wasn't safe. Everything was so chaotic in the business sector right now. Atlas would never lettake any risks.
I wouldn't be any help to him there anyway. I would be his weak spot.
When Trinity saw my decisive answer, she didn't continue askingabout it.
The tension from earlier subsided when our food arrived. After the waiter served everything, I said, "Con, let's eat and chat. Is there anything else you want, Trinity? We can order more." Content belongs to en.kikistories"No need. Anything's fine with me," Trinity said casually.
Perhaps Trinity's apology had lifted everyone's spirits. The atmosphere suddenly relaxed.
That gesture was not just a simple apology. It showed that the obstacles between Ivanna and Trinity had been removed. It also proved that Trinity had let go of Jared. Content belongs to en.kikistoriesIt proved that Trinity had shifted her focus, indicating that she genuinely admired someone else.
This madeeven more curious and eager to understand that man.
