SWNOVELS Chapter 488
Under Naomi and Michelle's anticipation-filled gazes, Donny stood before Harold.
However, Donny's following action caused Naomi and Michelle's jaws to drop.
"Mr. Campbell, it's all my fault. Please don't apologize to me. I don't deserve to receive an apology from you!"
When Donny saw that Harold was actually following Luna's instructions and apologizing, he was so frightened that his legs turned to jelly. He thought Harold was trying to pull a prank on him.
"Luna wants me to apologize, so you must accept my apology no matter what. Otherwise, you'll only be making things difficult for me!" said Harold deliberately when he noticed the terrified look on Donny's face. He then bowed and apologized once more.
Thud! Donny immediately dropped to his knees before Harold in public when he noticed the latter was adamant about apologizing. He's clearly trying to intimidate me!
"Um... What's going on? Mr. Hancock, didn't you say you would make this b*stard get on his knees in front of everyone and apologize to me? Why are you the one on your knees? Plus, why are you addressing him as Mr. Campbell?"
Naomi, who had just sat back down, immediately jumped out of her seat and stared at the duo.
Luna and Michelle widened their eyes as they stared in disbelief at the scene unfolding before them.
I can't believe it! Donny, who doesn't even respect the Sunderland family, kneels before Harold! What the heck is going on?
"Daddy, Mommy, look! Someone is proposing!"
The little girl from the next table had been surveying the lobby curiously while she was eating. When she saw the scene at Harold's table, she was amazed and quickly told her parents about it.
Her cute voice immediately attracted the attention of many guests who were having their meals in the lobby. They turned to look in the direction where she was pointing, their gazes falling upon Harold's table.
"Pfft! Darling, that man is actually apologizing to the other man. He's not proposing. It's only considered a proposal when a man kneels for a woman," explained the little girl's mother patiently, chuckling when she saw Donny on his knees before Harold.
"Why can't a man propose to another man?" the little girl asked her mother curiously.
The people around them laughed when they heard the girl ask such a serious question with her adorable voice.
The woman smiled awkwardly, unsure how to answer her daughter's question.
Meanwhile, Donny, who was kneeling before Harold, had become the center of attention in the lobby.
He turned a bright shade of red, embarrassed. The murmurs from the bystanders felt like sharp knives stabbing at his heart.
At that moment, he was filled with regret. He felt stupid for suggesting changing their table from the private room to the grand hall.
I wouldn't be in such an awkward predicament if I didn't make that suggestion! D*mn it! The effect of having more people watching was indeed achieved, but I was the one who became the laughingstock instead. I'm just digging my own grave! So many people are recording this on their phones and posting it on TikTok. If this gets out, how will I face anyone in the future?
Donny was so embarrassed that he wished he could just die on the spot.
He wanted so badly to leave immediately but did not even dare to get up, much less escape.
"Mr. Hancock, do you remember what you told me when we were outside Daroga Cafe?" asked Harold, looking at Donny.
Relief and surprise flashed across Donny's face when he heard Harold's question, "I-I'll get lost right now! I'll never appear in front of you ever again!"
