    Chapter 218 Apologize


    Amanda froze for a moment, feelingpletely taken aback.


    The side of her face that Melody had pped still throbbed, but it paled inparison to the sharp sting of Edward''s rejection at that moment,


    The hurt felt as if it reached deep into her very bones.


    She looked at Edward in shock, and suddenly it clicked-she realized why he had treated her so coldly.


    Was he holding her responsible for abandoning him when he needed her the most?


    For many years, she had quietly followed and supported him, even though Edward had never truly connected with her. Yet he clearly understood who she was. To many, they appeared to be the perfect couple in Sommerville.


    If it weren''t for Melody. Amanda would have been the ideal choice for Mrs. Moore.


    Edward was aware of Amanda, but that was simply due to his excellent memory; he recalled everyone he


    encountered.


    It wasn''t anything extraordinary.


    Noticing Amanda''s silence, Edward turned his attention to Bernard, who was standing nearby and prepared for action. Bernard quickly grasped the situation and prepared himself.


    He finally had the chance to take the lead and work with Mr. Moore like Regal de''s butler.


    The mere thought made him feel a bit thrilled.


    Standing tall, Bernard stepped in front of Amanda, bowing with ack of sincerity as he spoke in a mocking tone. "Ms. Jenson. I''ll handle the ps Madam intended for


    you.


    "Since you''ve embarrassed Madam by making her palm red, thatst p doesn''t count."Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.


    After saying this, Bernard cast a proud nce at Melody, as if silently asking, "Madam, what do you think of my efforts?"


    Melody offered a slight smile, her eyes gleaming with approval as she responded, "Bernard, you''ve understood perfectly. Great job."


    Bernard eximed, "Madam has praised me! Madam has praised me


    Not even Mr. Moore received such recognition.


    Feeling confident, Bernard stepped forward and delivered two ps to Amanda.

    Amanda felt a jolt of pain in her cheek, nearly causing her to stumble.


    Her resentment towards Melody in her heart grew stronger.


    She leaned against the tea table for support, using one hand to shield her flushed and tingling face before she spoke.


    Her voice came out roughs and quiet,ced with bitterness. "I apologize to Mrs. Moore and Ms. Tucker for my earlier behavior... p! Bernard moved closer and struck her once more.


    ""Ms. Jenson!"


    "My Madam is Mr. Moore''s legitimate wife. How can you call her Ms. Tucker?"


    "Even if you refuse to call her Mrs. Moore, you should at least refer to my Madam as Mam Moore."


    After he finished speaking. Bernard pulled back his stinging hand and moved closer to Mr. Moore, making it clear he had his backing. Amanda was barely holding back her tears, feeling like she was about to break.


    She nced at Percy with watery eyes, yearning to find sympathy in her grandfather''s gaze.


    Yet Percy kept his focus on brewing tea, his head bowed, seemingly unconcerned.


    With no support to turn to. Amanda could only lower her head respectfully toward Melody. "Madam Moore, I''m sorry for my impoliteness."

    "I understand my error now."


    Swiftly, she shifted the topic.


    "But, Madam Moore, since our tea contest has already started, I hope we can proceed with thest round of the tea presentation.


    "Considering the live broadcast promoting tea culture is already in progress, I''m sure theizens would rather not be left without a satisfying end to thispetition, wouldn''t you agree?" Everyone strongly agreed with this point.
