Chapter 63 Apologize on Behalf of My Wife
“Agnes, is this boy your future son-in-law? Come on, giv break. Today is a happy day.”
Agnes’ friends from abroad did not know that Kaze and Darcy been married for years. Curious, they appraised Kaze, assuming he was Darcy’s boyfriend, which explained their friendly tone.
Agnes grunted and said, “Don’t simply assume. He has nothing to do with our family!”
“Mrs. Quint! Congratulations! You look stunning today!”
Ren, in his handsome suit, came over with a flattering smile.
“Ren, you are too kind. I’m too old to be stunning.”
Agnes welcomed Ren with a bright smile and even eagerness to hold
his arm.
“Agnes, is this your future son-in-law? You seemed to like him a lot.”
Agnes’ friends looked at Ren as if the presentable and wealthy young man was Darcy’s real boyfriend.
“He’s Ren, a kind boy. His family owns Lily Garden Hotel.”
This time around, Agnes did not provide a clear answer, she simply introduced Ren to her friends without confirming his identity.
Ren saw the reaction on her face and was delighted.
He politely greeted Agnes’ friends before he went over to Darcy.
“Darcy, I had everything settled for the housewarming party. Your family friends will all be taken care of. How’s work? If you’re too tired, take a rest and spend some time with your mother.”

His caring words won praise from Agnes’ friends. They knew from the details that he cared about Darcy a lot.
Agnes nodded with an approving smile and she was mor
with Ren than before.
“Hypocrite!”
Darcy, who knew the truth, spewed the word coldly and showed disgust on her face brazenly.
If Henry was a jerk, then Ren would be a hypocrite-both types she abhorred.
If she was not concerned about the impact on her little family, then she would have slapped Ren in the face.
“Darcy, how could you talk to Ren like that? He did a lot for us and made many arrangements for the party. It’s fine that you don’t feel grateful but how can you talk to him like that? We did not raise you to be this rude.”
Agnes was agitated suddenly.
Darcy was aggrieved when her mother scolded her harshly.
“Mom, don’t fall for his tricks. He’s not who you think…”
Darcy got agitated as well and wanted to expose Ren.
“What are you trying to say? I saw Ren do all those things for me. Are you saying that I am blind?”
Agnes did not give Darcy the chance to speak and interrupted her mid-
sentence.
Ren was delighted. He stepped up and calmed Agnes down, saying, Mrs. Quint, calm down. Please don’t scold Darcy. I believe she must have some misunderstandings about me. I’ll just have to explain

mysch.
“No. You have done a lot for our family but she’s not grateful and she badmouths you. This is a matter of principles!”
Agnes was still angry. She stared at Darcy and said, “Apologize to
Ren now!”
Everyone could tell that Agnes was truly mad. If Darcy refused to apologize, this would not end well for her.
It might even affect the whole party.
Aggrieved, Darcy’s eyes got teary.
“I’ll apologize on her behalf.”
It was then Kaze, who was beside her, spoke up.
He approached and said, “I’m sorry, Ren. But do remember that I am apologizing because I don’t want my wife to lower herself in front of anyone, and not that you are worthy of my apology. I’ll make sure to take the apology back, twice as much.”
“Kaze, you…
Darcy looked at Kaze blankly, her tears trickled down her cheeks.
Kaze was the one who got framed, and he even received a slap from Agnes. Moreover, he had to spend a night somewhere else.
He stepped up to apologize on behalf of Darcy just because he did not want Agnes to be mad and enjoy the party.
He swallowed all the grievances by himself.
Kaze shot her a subtle gaze as if he were trying to say that it was okay and that all he was doing was for her.
The words that Kaze said after the apology were simply nonsense to
Ren

He smiled and said, “Mrs. Quint, it seems like Kaze is talking behind my back, that’s why Darcy has misunderstood me. Since he’s apologized, let’s just forget about it. I’m not a petty person.”
