Chapter 986

Madam Emili’s voice rang out sharply, filled with frustration. “You actually have the nerve to say that?! This is all because of you! What did I tell you earlier? The banquet was scheduled for seven, yet you decided to show up at eight! Do you have no shame making all the elders wait for you on an empty stomach?”
Liza gave her a calm glance before responding nonchalantly, “I never wanted to come in the first place. You were the one who insisted on inviting me. If waiting for an hour was such a problem, then maybe you weren’t that sincere about having me here.”
Madam Emili’s face turned bright red with fury. Every time she spoke to Liza, it felt like she was shaving years off her life.
