Chapter: 960

Norah, however, shook her head defiantly. “I won't apologize. Dolores got what she deserved."

Norah was not someone to be trifled with. Although she wasn't as wealthy as the Boyds, she was equally formidable.

She was not afraid of the Boyd family at all.

As she spoke, her presence was as imposing as Marlin's.

The tension between them was palpable; neither was willing to back down.

Sean, unfazed, grasped Norah's hand and attempted to lead her away.

The Scott and Boyd families were based in two different cities, with the Scott family having a more stable foundation. If the Boyd family wanted revenge, they had to think twice.

Hearing these words, Dolores bit her lip. Norah was much tougher than she had expected. She thought Norah would quietly accept the situation, as she had never failed such an attempt before.

Rosalee narrowed her eyes, observing the tension between Norah and Dolores. As a member of the entertainment circle, she was familiar with Dolores’ manipulative tricks.

However, it was clear that Dolores had crossed a line, making Norah unwilling to back down.

Rosalee felt fortunate that Norah hadn't pursued the incident where she had spilled the wine on Norah's dress.

The situation was at a stalemate. Marlin kept pushing, but Norah refused to compromise.

Hans tried his best to persuade Marlin, but he remained stubborn.

Marlin couldn't help but feel some resentment towards Dolores. She knew he was in a difficult position, yet she only clung to him, pretending not to notice the chaos she had caused. Why she couldn't read the room?

"Apologize," demanded Marlin.

Norah stood her ground. "No," she asserted firmly.

Sean had reassured her that it didn't matter if she offended the Boyd family; he wouldn't let her suffer any grievance.

With the combined wealth and influence of hers and Sean's, Norah felt no fear of the Boyds.

The onlookers were intrigued and didn't want to leave; they wanted to see who would come out on top.

Marlin was determined, and it was clear he wouldn't back down.

The man beside Norah seemed important, indicating she had a powerful ally.

Yolande ran to Marlin and gently pulled Delores aside. She noticed that Delores had long since stopped crying, her face dry and betraying no signs of tears.

"Delores, there's no point in dragging this out. It's your fault. You should apologize to Miss Wilson and end this," she whispered in Delores's ear. “Remember, the Scott family is as powerful as mu family. Offending them will only bring trouble. Don't be foolish."

Taking a few steps back, Yolande smiled and asked, “What do you think, Dolores?"
