Offended Badly

Originally, in Vanessa's eyes, Lucas was just a penniless bottom feeder of society and not worth mentioning at all.

But it was now obvious that Lucas wasn't an ordinary person. Even her father was so scrupulous and afraid of him that he had knelt in front of him. In that case, Vanessa felt that it wasn't that hard to accept her father's orders to kneel.

Bang!

With a crisp and clear sound, Vanessa's knees hit the floor as she knelt in front of Lucas with gritted teeth.

"… Mr. Gray, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have offended you. Please… forgive me!" Vanessa's face was flushed red, and she was clenching her fists tightly while speaking with great difficulty.

Even though the apology sounded extremely ordinary, it was the first time in her life that Vanessa, the heiress of the Williams, had knelt and apologized to someone in public.

She felt absolutely humiliated and ashamed.
