Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James) novel Chapter 115

Sophie was wondering what was going on when Harold had already pulled her to a table and started ordering.

"Tina, Krystal, you two are my best friends at this university. I know I made a mistake about what happened last time, so I specifically invited you out to eat to ask for your forgiveness. I really didn't mean what I said. I'm sorry."

Nichole didn't expect such a strong reaction from Krystal, nor did she foresee Krystal openly calling out her vanity. Her face instantly turned pale. "Krystal, let's talk this out. I didn't mean it like that..."
