All Her Secrets

Catherine was much taller than that woman, so she looked down at the woman stonily.

“Since you love to make people kneel, how about you apologize to me in the way you like?”

Catherine spilled out the words calmly, but everyone else could not believe their ears.

The crowd thought, “This country girl of the Swanns is too arrogant! Even Korbin, her father, cannot ask another person to kneel!”

As they saw it, Mr. David stuck up for Catherine because she was also his guest.

Now that Catherine had put forward such an outrageous request, the other people were all waiting to see Catherine making herself a joke. They thought Catherine did not know how to mind her place.

The look on Mr. David’s face turned even darker, as the crowd had expected.

He walked to Catherine with a grim face, and the others were looking forward to a good show.

Little did they know that when Mr. David stood by Catherine’s side, he did not rebuke Catherine. Instead, he bellowed at the woman before Catherine, “Did you not hear her? Apologize to her in your favorite way, and don’t waste our time anymore!”

Mr. David cast a warning look at the woman’s husband, and the dangerous aura on him frightened that man.
