"Mrs. Sherwood, is this the kind of behavior your family usually tolerates? That simply won't do. You better take her back and teach her smanners before showing her face in public again. Aren't you worried about tarnishing the Sherwood family's reputation?" "All I know is you have terrible taste, but who knew your judgment of character was just as bad! Where on earth did you find such an uncouth person? She clearly doesn't know the first thing about proper behavior!" The murmurs and side glances from others were filled with skepticism, disdain, and contempt towards Millie. The Sherwood scion had an affair, but of all people, he had to choose someone as graceless as her. Millie couldn't bear the judgmental stares; her body began to tremble slightly.

Beverley, because of her humble beginnings, was always looked down upon by the social elite. After years of striving and finally being accepted, it was Millie who made her feel like she had regressed, once again the butt of everyone's jokes, unable to hold her head high. She was furious and regretful at the stime! If only she had known better than to bring her along! She had instructed her to prepare properly, and yet, this was the outcome? Trying to embarrass Roseanne only to be humiliated in return was a new low.

Beverley glared at her fiercely, "What are you standing there for?! Apologize this instant! Who raised you to be so rude? You have no sense of decorum or upbringing." Millie was on the verge of tears, her eyes brimming but not quite spilling over, a picture of pitiable innocence. However, the room was filled with women, none of whom were swayed by her performance, which only drew more ire, particularly from Silver, who glanced at her with disdain before turning away.

Finding herself without allies, Millie bit her lip and looked towards Roseanne, "What do you wantto do to apologize?" Roseanne glanced at her not-yet-visible baby bump and decided it wasn't worth the trouble. Murray was a stranger to her now, with no hard feelings involved, so there was no reason to make things harder for Millie. But since she had been the one to start the trouble, Roseanne felt compelled to stand her ground.

"I'm not someone who backs down easily. Just offer a sincere apology." Millie was taken aback, not expecting Roseanne to let her off so easily.

"That's it?" "What else do you expect?" Roseanne quipped, amused at the thought of demanding a more abject form of apology.

Not wanting to push her luck, Millie quickly muttered, "I'm sorry," fearing Roseanne might change her mind. "Ms. Cole is not only cool but also magnanimous beyond compare." "Absolutely, Ms. Cole's temperament is exceptional. If you ask me, he shouldn't have let her off so easily She needs to learn her lesson, to avoid causing more trouble in the future! Right, Mrs. Sherwood3 What could Beverley say or do but nod in agreement? "Young girls can be so impulsive. She definitely needs guidance." Millie was seething, her jaw clenched in frustration.

She never imagined things would turn out this way. Had she known, she would have been better sitting quietly, not drawing to herself...

Now, she had inadvertently made herself a stepping stone forRoseanne, a classic case of losing what she tried to gain. Millie's resentful gaze was too obvious for Roseanne to ignore.

When you're nice to speople, they don't appreciate it, they just get more resentful. But so what? What En can you do? Roseanne had anticipated this outcwhen she made her decision and felt no regret.

In life, one can't always please everyone, but staying true to oneself is what matters.
