Confronted with the prospect of familial discipline, Minnie’s countenance shifted and her earlier arrogance waned.


    “I’m.


    I apologize, Miss Moore.


    Purchasing the paper was my error…


    I only realized it toote, causing you undue inconvenience.


    ”


    Tears welled up in Minnie’s eyes as she convey her apologies to Hannah.


    “I genuinely understand my mistake now and I pledge it won’t be repeated.


    Please, Miss Moore, grant me your forgiveness this time.


    ”


    Sensing the evolving atmosphere, the dean tactfully stepped forward, suggesting, “If Miss Moore remains dissatisfied, our institution could still issue a formal reprimand.


    How do you feel about that?”


    “That won’t be necessary,” Hannah responded, mindful of Minnie’s student status.


    She softened her stance.


    “Given that she’s still a student, a formal reprimand might not be in her best interest.


    ”


    The dean breathed a sigh of relief, only to have Bryson’s voice resound once more.


    “As a senior faculty member within the institution, partaking in giarizing, I am curious about the institution’s intended course of action in this matter.


    ”


    The dean, attempting to deflect the situation, found himself taken aback by Bryson’s unwavering resolve.

    “Miss Moore, I want to express my profound gratitude for your understanding in this matter.


    I had no inkling that Minnie would engage in such behavior at school.


    My words were somewhat rash.


    ”


    Melina appeared remorseful.


    “I owe you a heartfelt apology for this situation and I genuinely hope it won’t strain our rtionship.


    ”


    Ultimately, Melina chose to maintain a low profile.


    Hannah, not one to holdsting grudges, responded, “It’s quite alright.


    She is still young.


    It’s just a matter of offering her guidance.


    ”


    “Ipletelyprehend.


    When I return home, I’ll be sure to rify this to my parents,” Melina promised.


    Melina then turned her gaze to Bryson, who stood beside Hannah, and implored, “Bryson, I hope today’s incident won’t cast a shadow on the rtionship between our two families.


    Miss Moore, as a gesture of my apology, may I extend an invitation to you and Bryson to dine at the Mellow Beehive?”


    Hannah contemted declining but Bryson spoke first.


    “It’s unnecessary and would be inconvenient.


    ”


    With that, Bryson turned away, leading Hannah with him.


    Melina lingered behind, her LV bag bearing the indentations of her clenched nails, her eyes growing noticeably colder.
