Yeri gently helped the waiter up and comforted him in a soft voice, “It’s okay. Don’t be afraid. We’re all human. We all make mistakes sometimes. It’s just a small matter. There is no need to panic.”

“Miss Lee…” The waiter looked at Yeri with tears in his eyes. She shook her head subconsciously. “No, it’s all my fault…”

“Alright, stop crying,” Yeri interrupted her and lifted her eyebrows. She smiled and said, “You have just stained a dress. I don’t think Mrs. Jerin will mind, right?” She glanced at Lisa with deep jealousy and unwillingness.

Lisa lifted her head, but she did not look at Shen Sisi. Instead, she looked at the man beside her. “Mr. Kim Sehun, please control your partner. It’s not a good habit to meddle in other people’s business.”

“You!” Yeri felt deeply humiliated, and her face flushed red. She could not help but scold, “Lalisa, I’m talking to you. Are you deaf?”

“You? Who do you think you are to have the right to talk to Mrs. Jeon?” Jennie mocked, “who do you think you are? If we have to reply to someone like you every day, wouldn’t we be tired?” After saying that, she could not help but mutter, “You are just a toy. Do you really think you’re a princess?”

Yeri hadn’t realized her identity and was only humiliating herself. The Shen family was nothing compared to the three tycoons of S City. Jennie was from the Kim family. She was competing with Sehun to inherit the company. Meanwhile, Lisa was Jungkook’s wife and the matriarch of the Jeon family. Yeri was nothing before the two of them.

Yeri’s face turned pale. She felt as if everyone’s gaze on her had turned into sharp thorns and pierced into her body, making her feel ashamed. She could not help but look at the man beside her with a pleading gaze and muttered, “Sehun…”

Unfortunately, Sehun did not respond to her. Yeri realized that Sehun’s gaze had fixed on Lisa. His focus was on her, and there was an expression that she could not see clearly.

Yeri’s heart skipped a beat. She could not remain her proud self. She could not help but grab Sehun’s arm and raise her voice as she called out his name again, “Sehun!”

“Huh?” Sehun, who had been disturbed, frowned. He looked frustrated. His gaze finally landed on Yeri.

Seeing this scene, Jungkook frowned slightly and took half a step forward to protect Lisa behind him.

Yeri looked at Sehun with tears in her eyes. “I’m your girlfriend. Why aren’t you saying anything when Lisa and the rest mock me?” She felt embarrassed, especially when Jungkook stood beside Lisa at the first moment and protectively protected Lisa.

Sehun seemed to have just realized they were mocking Yeri. His deep gaze landed on Jennie, and he frowned. “Jennie, watch your attitude.”

“What attitude?” Jennie pursed her lips in disdain and looked at the pretentious Yeri. She scoffed. “What attitude can I have towards the thing you brought over? She is just eye candy. Does she think you are dating her for real? Do you think you can marry Sehun? Ridiculous!” She looked down on Yeri, who relied on marrying a man to raise her social status the most. Yeri was like a woman who could not live without a man.

“Jennie!” Karo took a step forward and tugged at Jennie. He lectured her seriously, “Miss Lee Yeri doesn’t know her place. But as a member of the Kim family, you can’t be rude. How did I teach you? You can’t forget your manners just because others don’t know their manners, do you understand?”

Lisa could not help but cover her mouth and laugh. As expected of the mean Doctor Kim, the way he beat around the bush and scolded others was funny.

Yeri’s face turned paler, and Sehun seemed displeased. “No matter what, Yeri is someone I brought here. With this attitude of yours, do you take me seriously?”

Jennie curled her lips and did not say anything.

Yeri’s face instantly turned pale, and she clenched her fists tightly. What did Sehun mean by this? He did not care whether someone had bullied Yeri. He only cared about his reputation! Why? Why would she have to suffer such humiliation? Yeri wished she could smash these porcelain pieces on the spot and smash them onto their faces. She would scream at them to vent her anger, but she couldn’t.

After a short interlude, everyone acted as if nothing had happened. Everyone found an acquaintance to talk to.

Yeri stared blankly at Jungkook, chatting cheerfully with others. Even when they talked, he didn’t forget to raise his hand to separate the passers-by from Lisa.
