Chapter 37 You Gonna Apologize or What
Five years ago, when he reunited with Elsa, he had gifted her this priceless bracelet.
Mr. Ivan and Simon were very close relatives. If both Simon and his cousin believed that Lily had broken the bracelet and bullied Elsa…
Lily wouldn’t just lose the voice role for “Blaze“-they’d all despise her; they’d retaliate.
Noticing they were standing in a surveillance blind,spot, Yvonne quickly raised her hand and tried to take the bracelet off Elsa’s wrist.
Every ounce of malice was written all over Yvonne’s face. Elsa, sharp as ever, instantly knew what she was
up to.
The bracelet had incredible translucence; she loved it to death.
Part of her hated to let it go.
But what she wanted even more was for Lily to be hated by everyone, completely and irrevocably destroyed.
She stayed alert for any sign Lily might be recording a video.
When she saw Lily wasn’t holding a phone, she gave Yvonne silent approval.
Yvonne yanked the bracelet off Elsa’s wrist in one motion.
Just as Lily was about to walk away, Yvonne smashed the precious imperial marble bracelet hard against the ground.
Then came the hysterical scream, “Lily, you wench! How could you bully Elsa again–how could you smash her bracelet? Do you even know how valuable that thing is? That was a gift from Simon–worth forty million dollars! Even if we sold you, you couldn’t afford to replace it!”
“What’s going on here?”
John, Simon, and Ivan had just been nearby. Hearing the commotion, they rushed over.
Elsa didn’t say a word.
She simply lowered her eyes slightly, like a proud red rose being trampled by wild, ignorant weeds–cold, fragile, broken.
Yvonne, on the other hand, was bursting with confidence and self–righteous fury. “Lily’s gone too far!”
“Elsa and I had just come out of the restroom when Lily suddenly ran over, shoved Elsa, called her a shameless homewrecker, ripped off her bracelet, and smashed it! Ivan, Lily’s always picking on Elsa–you have to stand up for her! Simon, Lily is awful! That bracelet was your gift to Elsa–you can’t just let her get away with this! Lily’s a lying manipulative wench. If you let her voice Blaze, she’ll destroy everything people love about the character. You need to fire her–blacklist her! Lily, you seriously deserve to die!”

Simon stared at the shattered pieces on the ground.
It wasn’t the 40 million dollars that bothered him.
For a top–tier family like them, that kind of money was a mere drop in the ocean.
What hurt was his girl, and the meaning behind the bracelet.
Five years ago, when he reunited with her, he had given her that bracelet as a gift to mark their reconnection.
Other than other things he’d given her as a child, this bracelet was the most important token between them.
And now Lily had destroyed it. How could I tolerate that? How could I ever forgive her? His gaze slowly lifted, his eyes turning bloodshot, sharp as knives as they bore into Lily.
“Again and again, you keep bullying Lizzy. Who the heck gave you the right? If you can’t get her
forgiveness today, I’ll have you arrested. I’ll press charges for destruction of high–value property and make sure you rot in jail!”
With that, Simon stepped forward, face frozen, and reached to grab Lily’s wrist to force an apology out of her.
“Simon, calm down!”
Ivan and John both stepped in front of Lily at the same time.
Seeing his close friend and his own cousin shielding Lily only made Simon’s eyes darker–more menacing.
He swept a cold glance across Ivan’s face, then fixed his gaze on John. “You promised you’d take care of Elsa. Letting Lily abuse her again and again—is that what you call taking care of her John? You owe Elsa an explanation today.”
“You can’t defend Lily! She’s vile–completely rotten. She has to kneel down and apologize to Elsa right now!” Yvonne added without skipping a beat.
Elsa closed her eyes, and two silent tears rolled down her cheeks.
There was pride in her sorrow. Resignation beneath her coldness.
