Eli, who had been nonchalantly enjoying her blueberry cheesecake, immediately froze and looked at Alicia with a shocked expression.
She was shocked for two reasons.
The first one was the fact that Alicia bore hostility towards her. Following that fact, she concluded that she was the reason why Alicia cried heavily a few days ago. Knowing this, she had no idea how to react.
Will she feel angry or guilty?
The second reason was the fact that Alicia, the extremely proud noble lady from the Cross Family was now making amends to her.
Even if she only knew of Alicia for a good few months, it was enough for Eli to understand her prideful and haughty personality.
Yet here she is, saying sorry to her with sincere eyes.
Eli let out a heavy sigh and replied, "I see.. Then I accept your apology. But of course I will very much like that there will no longer be blatant nor hidden hostility between us."
