Marian's height was much higher than that of the woman, despite being younger. She lowered her head and looked down at the woman. Her gaze was blank, but the woman could feel the abyss stare at her.

"You like kneeling, don't you? Apologize to me that way, it's your favorite after all."

Her words shocked everyone present.

The girl from the Su family, who just came back from the countryside, was too arrogant. Some of them thought she needed to know her place, others thought it was appropriate as they witnessed the woman's self-centered demeanor.

But everyone mutually agreed that Mr. David only protected her as a guest of his banquet.

Now she made an excessive demand, everyone thought it was a joke. She was becoming too ignorant.

Mr. David's expression became very ugly, as expected.

He approached Marian one more time. Everyone leaned in to watch an amazing climax to a great show.

Marian followed Mr. David into a private room, the environment was elegant and free from any disturbance.

She walked to a chair leisurely and sat down. Mr. David stood beside her, he was bending over with a respectful look.

After looking around her eyes slowly fell on David. "Why don't you sit down?"

Mr. David didn't even raise his head, he kept his head down and replied respectfully, "Ms. Su, I didn't know you had arrived. I want to apologize, it's my fault you got to encounter such an unpleasant woman."

Marian smiled, she didn't expect that he would care about this so much.

She generously pointed to the chair opposite to her position. "It's fine, people still don't know me well enough. This is your home, you are the master and I am your guest, sit down."

Mr. David knew the character of the other party and he knew that Marian wouldn't say it a second time. He didn't dare to disobe

When she dropped the teacup Marian knew she had to take responsibility, even if someone else bumped into her. She stood up and prepared to apologize.

The woman had a ferocious expression and she immediately scolded her before she could say a word, "Are you blind? Or is your hand broken? You can't even hold a teacup, do you know how expensive my clothes are?"

She became more unscrupulous when she saw her clothes, she was dressed worse than a servant. The woman thought she was just a janitor.

"Get on your knees and apologize right now, I can have people drive you away from Yuncheng in a heartbeat!"

Among those present, some people recognized Marian but they didn't speak out to remind the woman.

It's a good show after all, they wanted to see how it would end. Besides, Marian was still part of the Su family, they would have one less competitor if she was humiliated right then and there.

The two of them became the center of attention in the banquet, the woman who was accidentally splashed by Marian didn't feel embarrassed, but on the contrary, she became even more arrogant and thought she was superior.

"Did you hear me? I told you to kneel and wipe me clean, are you deaf?"

Marian only smiled in response. Make her kneel? She found it hilarious.

The woman saw that Marian still didn't move, she couldn't help but stretched her hand out to pull Marian out of rage.

"Stop, don't you dare!" An unhappy and old voice came, it attracted everyone's attention.

Everyone turned around and found that the speaker was actually Mr. David, the host of the banquet. They naturally stepped aside with reverence and respect.

Mr. David came slowly with his cane.

His eyes were locked between Marian and the woman. After stepping forward, he pointed his finger at the woman. On his serious face, there were traces of displeasure and anger. "You wanted her to kneel?"

Before the woman could reply, a middle-aged man suddenly rushed to her side. He pulled her away and glared at her sternly.

He then turned back respectfully to Mr. David. "I'm sorry, Mr. David, my wife had no intention of offending you. I disturbed your banquet, please forgive me. I will make her apologize to you now."

The speaker was the woman's husband, the CEO of a new technology company in Yuncheng. It was a well-known start-up with a lot of potential.

The woman was a typical pretentious rich woman who lived off of her family's wealth. She was an egomaniac who constantly scolded and pushed others down. She thought she was teaching a lowly cleaner a good lesson, unexpectedly, she offended Mr. David.

This made her husband come out to neutralize the situation.

Mr. David analyzed the man from top to bottom, there was disdain on his cold face. "Apologize to me? There's no need for that. It's your wife who needs to apologize."

He pointed towards Marian with his palm facing up, to show politeness and respect of his own. Marian remained calm, despite being the star of the debacle.

The woman was used to being conceited. When she heard Mr. David's words, there was a big shock in her eyes. "You want me to apologize to a janitor?"

"Janitor?" Mr. David's expression was full of horror. The woman's remarks genuinely startled him, but he had to stand his ground. "A janitor? You ignorant woman, you better pray to God when you apologize to her. If she doesn't forgive you, you and your husband are finished."

His relentless remarks, they were like buckets of ice-cold water. The two of them felt very embarrassed and with his last threat the husband started feeling fear.

Marian continued to look at the couple like she was just a bystander. She had a thousand yard stare that could pierce anyone's soul, she didn't even say a word. It made her look more innocent in a particular way.

The two of them didn't move, the fear, embarrassment and confusion froze them.

Mr. David was angry when he saw their failure to act and he pointed at the CEO of the technology company and threatened him, "You have ruined my banquet and offended my most honorable guest. I have just returned to Yuncheng, you insolent fool. I swear I will drive your families to the ground if you don't apologize!"

The weight of his statement was so heavy that anyone with a brain could hear it. Marian was his most distinguished guest? Everyone was shocked, their heads were scrambling. He even threatened to destroy them if they don't apologize.

Even the Su family had an incredulous look on their faces.

Ruby's face was uglier than her family, it was as if she had been served a bowl of stool and urine. She had insulted her earlier, she told her she would never be anything more than what she was. Now, she was the most honorable guest, said by Mr. David himself.

The husband was like a piece of paper, he looked thinner and his face was pale from fear. He took his wife and forced her to apologize.

The woman's face was also pale and ashamed. She didn't expect the most honored guest to be dressed like this.

The situation was getting worse and worse, and the woman also felt scared. She bowed slowly to Marian and apologized in a low voice, "Miss, I'm sorry, I didn't intend to offend you just now, please forgive me."

Everyone's eyes were focused on Marian, they were waiting to hear her response.

Marian's height was much higher than that of the woman, despite being younger. She lowered her head and looked down at the woman. Her gaze was blank, but the woman could feel the abyss stare at her.
