Chapter 399 I Want to Break Up

Yelena intended to play a prank on Arthur, but she accidentally pranked Max instead, so guilt immediately overwhelmed her. "I'm sorry. I was drinking water just now, and it spilled on your shoes. I accidentally stepped on you too." She glared at Arthur as she spoke, who was still smiling nonchalantly. Yelena cursed at him in secret. He's such an *sshole!

Seeing that it was Yelena, Max's rage subsided a little. "Oh, it's okay. It's fine since it's you. Just be careful next time."

At this moment, Edmund couldn't resist smacking Max on the back of his head while commenting sarcastically, "What do you mean it's okay because it's her? Would you have beaten us up if it was one of us? What a great brother you are. We're nothing in the face of your woman." Edmund was always sharp-tongued, so everyone was used to it.

"Edmund!" Max grumbled unhappily.

His wet shoes felt uncomfortable, so he left his seat to change them upstairs.

After Edmund's teasing, the atmosphere instantly eased up.

When Elspeth looked at Yelena, who was biting her fork and feeling embarrassed, she couldn't help but sigh. "I told you not to go too far. See, you've caused trouble again."

"I didn't mean to. Besides, I wanted to get justice for you. Max was wearing the same shoes, so I mistook him for Arthur." Yelena lowered her head, looking like a guilty little girl.

Seeing that she showed remorse, Elspeth didn't want to scold her anymore. She then advised with a sigh, "Be more careful next time, and don't act impulsively."
