The Consequences of Arrogance

Mrs. Hayes was too enraged to react and snapped, "Of course it's your fault! If it weren't for you, Bella wouldn't have been turned away!"

 

"You're just a country bumpkin who doesn't understand art! You probably didn't even know Mr. King's name before today. If I'm blaming someone, who else would I blame?"

 

Selina blinked innocently. "Mrs. Hayes, you sound so confident."

 

Mrs. Hayes' face flushed red with anger. "I've already been kind enough not to hold you accountable! And now you're standing in my way? Let me tell you, I demand an explanation today, or I'm not leaving—"

 

"You want an explanation? Fine."

 

A cold male voice interrupted Mrs. Hayes.

 

Gordon stood there, his expression indifferent and his gaze sharp. "Since Mrs. Hayes insists on an explanation, don't blame me for not showing the Hayes Family any mercy."

 

Seeing this, Selina sensibly stepped behind Gordon.
