There was only one thought in her mind: revenge against Harriet, to make Harriet as embarrassed as she was.

After missing her target, Lily steadied herself and lunged at Harriet again with renewed vigor.

"Harriet, I'll make sure to quell your arrogance today!"

As Harriet was about to dodge again, Delbert, quick as lightning, extended his arm and pressed Lily down to the ground, signaling Lewis and the employees of the gems trading center to restrain her. Delbert looked at Lily with disdain, his brows slightly furrowed.

The worry in his eyes seemed to be for his clothes that might get dirty from touching Lily.

He had a thing about cleanliness. Especially towards fools like Lily, it was more pronounced.

This cleanliness obsession only disappeared when he dealt with Harriet.

Delbert looked up at Lily with disdain and scoffed coldly without any mercy,

"Is this the daughter of the Lynch family in Imperium? What an eye-opener! The esteemed daughter of the Lynch family acting like a madwoman in public, causing a scene and attempting to throw herself at others?"

Hearing Delbert's words brought back the last shreds of rationality to Lily.

When she noticed the contemptuous looks from the crowd around her, she wished she could just disappear.

What had she done just now?

How could she have lost her senses and recklessly lunged at Harriet?

It must be Harriet's fault. It had nothing to do with her!

If it hadn't been for Harriet provoking her on purpose, how could she possibly have lost her mind?

It was all Harriet's fault!

At this moment, Lily's resentment towards Harriet even surpassed that towards Harriet's eight brothers.

After all, it was suspected that when Harriet's eight brothers came to Imperium, they did something unknown to their parents that led to their deaths and the downfall of their family.

That was why she hated Harriet's eight brothers so much.

The Lynch family were supposed to be the emperors of Imperium, nobility of the highest order.

And her status in all of Imperium was second to none.

Calling her the princess of Imperium wouldn't be an exaggeration.

But now, even Harriet, that lowlife dared to defy her!

Harriet and her eight brothers were all harbingers of disaster!

Ever since they came to Imperium, her parents died one after another...

Since Harriet came to Imperium, her reputation was ruined, and misfortune followed!

Thinking that, Lily glared furiously at Harriet. Her look could kill!

Just as Lily was about to demand justice from Harriet, she heard Harriet say slowly, "Now that you've regained your composure. Miss Lily, it's time to fulfill our previous bet and kneel down to apologize, isn't it?'

The bet?

Lily was taken aback.

After a brief moment of shock, she remembered the bet they had made.

She had vowed that if she won, Harriet would immediately kneel and apologize.

Likewise, if Harriet won, she would kneel and apologize to Harriet.

She had been confident, with the help of a shopping guide and knowledge of all the stones in the venue that could produce precious jewel, she would win.

But she never imagined Harriet would extract a top-quality jewel from an ordinary stone, which completely overshadowed her own superior jewel.

She had thought that it would be Harriet kneeling and apologizing, that she couldn't possibly lose.

But fate had other plans...
