"I will never forgive you," Yolanda replied.
"Don't be too much!" Boris exploded with rage immediately.
He was the heir of the Caldwell family. For him to apologize to a nobody and for Yolanda to still be so relentless about it was really pushing his limits.
"Mr. Caldwell has already apologized to you on his own accord, Yolanda. Stop being so difficult. Know your place!" Jean shrieked angrily.
"That's right! Know what's good for you!" Judas added. "He has already apologized, and you didn't incur any losses! Why won't you forgive him?"
They didn't even think they were in the wrong at all, and they didn't care if Yolanda forgave them or not.
However, since Oriel had interfered this time around, they couldn't resolve the issue if they didn't apologize, so they had no choice but to lower their heads and apologize to this powerless, influence-less bitch.
How dare Yolanda not only not know when to stop, but act so arrogantly just because she had Oriel's support? She should die!
"Don't be so shameless, Yolanda. It's your honor that I have humbled myself to apologize to you. How dare you refuse to accept my apology? Trust me when I say—"
"You ordered your subordinate, George, to bully my cousin, ordered Julie to carry out an abduction, convinced Renee to capture the people around me to threaten me, accused me of murder, and worked with other families to boycott my clinic.
"If any of these things were to happen to anyone else, they would've gone after you till their deaths, so where did you get the audacity to be so certain that I will have to forgive you?"
Boris choked on his words. He wanted to refute but he didn't know how to start.
How were they the same as Yolanda?
They were born with a silver spoon, and their dignity shouldn't be provoked by anyone at all. Lowly peasants like Yolanda who were born into an ordinary family should just suck it up when they got bullied since they were ants of the lowest tiers of the social ladder.
Ants had no right to rebel or question anything at all.
"Boris, you disregard human life like it means nothing, and you dismissed the laws of Havaria like they're just decorative ornaments, but I have my boundaries. Today, I celebrate my clinic's hundredth day, so I won't be calculative with you just for now. Take your men and get the fuck out of Titan Alley."
Though Yolanda usually didn't care for superstitions like these, it still felt a little unlucky for blood to be spilled on a day like this—especially the blood of someone like Boris.
