A Call That Changed Her Entire Life

Leona was mortified, frozen to the spot. The next moment, she lost control and went off like a time bomb. "Bitch! How dare you! Get out of here!"

How? How could a lowly bitch say something like that to her face? This was the happiest day of her life and she worked very hard to here! She wasn't going to let anyone spoil her day!

All of a sudden, everyone's attention was drawn towards them. The hall was filled with gasps and whispering noises.

Leona tried to push Emily to the ground, and she would have succeeded if someone hadn't caught Emily by the waist from behind. "Be careful," the person said.

Emily staggered to her feet, swaying a little. When she looked back, she saw the smiling face of Magee staring back at her. "Thank you," Emily replied, politely.

Leona was furious, and she screamed venomously, "You whore! Isn't it enough for you to have seduced half the men in the city? Why do you still want to seduce mine?"

"Miss Lin, what's wrong with you?" asked Emily, and she kept smiling. With an innocent look on her face, she feigned concern, "You shouldn't curse at me just because I happen to wear the same dress as you. I did not do it on purpose. If it bothers you so much, I can leave now."

"You didn't do it on purpose? I could have sworn that you were purposely trying to pick a fight with me!" Leona wanted to say something more, but Magee held her back. When she looked around, she realized that everyone was looking at her mockingly, and ridiculing her behind her back.

Although, she couldn't hear what they were saying clearly, she could see it in their eyes, how they were laughing and jeering at her.

Once again, Leona had lost her mind and her face because of Emily.

"Sorry, Miss Lu. She was a bit out of control today," Magee said with a gentle smile. He held Leona's hands and said, "Honey, apologize to Miss Lu."

"What..." Leona looked at Magee in utter disbelief. She took a deep breath and lowered her voice. "Why should I apologize to her? Magee, can't you see? This woman is clearly trying to ruin our engagement banquet!" Leona complained.

Magee completely ignored what she had said and asserted, "Apologize."

Leona trembled at the sight of Magee's cold eyes. She gritted her teeth and reluctantly said, "... I am sorry, Miss Lu. I am sorry for losing my temper just now. Thank you for coming to my engagement ceremony today."

Emily raised her eyebrows and answered, "That's okay."
