come over to apologize, yet she was still acting like this. “Seeing that you‘re not here to apologize, i‘ll
get my servant to send you off,” Alexander said coldly with a wave of his hand.
“That‘s not–”
Brandon was about to speak, but Brittany interjected, “Why should I apologize? It‘s me who was beaten
up. Alex, can‘t you tell?!” She then stood up abruptly and took a few steps forward, almost touching
