Rebirth In Divorce My New Mr. Perfect (by Summer Knowles) novel Chapter 537

"Sydney," Mia said mockingly, "if you want Sarah to forgive you, it's simple - get on your knees and apologize. Right here, in front of everyone. And promise you'll never bother her again."

On her knees?

Sydney's eyes widened. Kneel before Sarah? Before that bitch?

"Never! I won't kneel to her!"

Sarah stepped closer, with a cool smile. "Fine. Then I'll personally see you to a cell. The last person like you is already in prison, and your cousin won't escape either."

"You're threatening me!" Sydney's face flushed.

Mrs. Blanco turned tearfully to Amanda. "Amanda, look at your niece! We're family - how can she demand Sydney kneel?"

Before Amanda could speak, Shawn pulled her back. "Mrs. Blanco, where was this 'family' talk when your daughter was plotting? Since Sarah wants an apology on knees, that's what she'll get. Unless you want Benjamin back in detention? How would Lady White take that?"

"Uncle! I'm your niece too! Why protect only her?" Sydney's tears started falling.

"Sydney! Kneel!" Mrs. Blanco commanded sharply.

Sydney froze. "Mom, you really want me to..."

"You were wrong. Kneel and apologize!"

Everyone knew how much Old Lady White doted on Benjamin. If he went back to jail because Sydney wouldn't apologize...

As everyone watched, Mrs. Blanco pressed down on Sydney's shoulders. "Sydney, would you prefer a cell?"

Like a thunderbolt, those words brought Sydney to her knees. Tears streamed down her face. "I'm sorry."

She knelt before the person she hated most.

Even after they got to the car, Sydney wasn't finished. "Mom! I'll never forget this humiliation! Being forced to my knees like that - I won't let her get away with this!"

Mrs. Blanco squeezed her daughter's hand. "Neither will I, darling."

Back inside, Amanda studied Mia with interest. "So you're Miss Reynolds? You must visit us more often."

Her eyes gleamed with calculation - a Reynolds heiress and Melvin would make quite a match...

Mia, unnerved by the scrutiny, edged closer to Sarah. "Sarah..."

"She will, Aunt Amanda,” Sarah squeezed Mia's hand reassuringly.

Shawn, noticing Mia's discomfort, took his wife's arm. "Let's head home now, Sasa."
