Seeing this scene, John was filled with emotions.

Only now did he understand that Connor was the one who was pretending to be weak and vulnerable.

“Adam, why are you still in a daze? Hurry up and apologize to Mr. McDonald!”

Winston shouted at Adam with his eyes wide open.

Adam could not help but frown when he heard this. Then, he walked toward Connor and said respectfully, “Mr. McDonald, 1 was blind and have offended you. I hope you will forgive me for my mistakes!”

Connor glanced at Adam and said calmly, “On account of your father, I won’t argue with you about this matter this time. 1 hope you will be more cautious in the future!”

“Alright, thank you, Mr. McDonald! Thank you!”

Adam hurriedly nodded and bowed.

When everyone saw this, they sighed deep down.

No one would have thought that Adam, who was used to flaunting his power in the Phillips Family, would actually bow down to others.

When Rubin Phillips saw Adam apologizing to Connor, his expression seemed to turn even uglier. He knew Adam very well. He really couldn’t understand what kind of background Connor had to make Adam apologize to him.

“Mr. McDonald, if there’s nothing else, we’ll take our leave now!”

Winston said to Connor with a smile.

“Alright!”

Connor nodded lightly. He could not wait for Winston to leave with Adam as soon as possible.

“Right, I remember that there’s another person who should apologize to Connor.”

Winston had just turned around to leave when Maya Phillips pouted and spoke.

When everyone heard this, they all turned to look at Maya with a puzzled expression.

“Maya, what do you mean by that?”

Simon Phillips turned to look at Maya and asked in a puzzled tone.

After all, Adam had already apologized to Connor. Maya actually said that there was still one more person who needed to apologize to Connor. This made everyone a little confused.

After all, there were so many people present. Adam should be the only one who had offended Connor, right?

“Things have already reached this point yet someone is still trying to act all innocent.”

Maya turned to look at Rubin as she spoke.

Rubin seemed to have noticed Maya’s gaze as well. A puzzled expression appeared on his face because he did not know what she meant.

“Maya, what are you talking about? Can you just tell us what you mean?” Priscilla Marcus asked Maya with a puzzled expression.

“That’s right, Maya. What are you talking about?”

Freya also called out.

“Alright, then. Since that person is so shameless, I’ll remind him!”

Maya smiled faintly, then walked up to Rubin and said expressionlessly, “Rubin, I remember you framing Connor, saying that Joshua Qualls was an actor hired by Connor. Am I right?”

“What do you mean?”

Rubin asked Maya with an ugly expression on his face.

“Don’t you know what 1 mean? If it weren’t for you framing Connor, how could we have misunderstood Connor? Shouldn’t you apologize to Connor?”

Maya shouted at Rubin with her big, watery eyes.

“When did 1 frame Connor? 1 was only expressing the doubts in my heart at that time, but I’ve never framed Connor!”

Rubin sneered as he sat unmoved.

“Why you…”

Maya’s face flashed with anger. She felt that Rubin was much too shameless.

Although Rubin did not personally say that Joshua was an actor hired by Connor, Rubin had been fanning the flames from the beginning to the end. He just did not say those words himself.

“What about me?”

Rubin looked at Maya and laughed coldly before continuing, “Since you said that I framed Connor, can you produce evidence to prove that I framed him? There are so many people here. Who can prove that 1 framed him? As long as you can find a person or evidence, I’ll apologize to Connor immediately. How about that?”

“You’re really shameless. Everyone clearly saw that you took the lead in framing Connor, but you actually refuse to admit it now. Are you still a man?”

Maya was so angry that her eyes were red. She shouted at Rubin in anger.

“Maya, you can eat whatever you want, but you can’t say whatever you want! You’re saying that 1 framed Connor, but do you have any evidence?”

Rubin smiled disdainfully. Then, he turned to look at the people in the restaurant and said with a playful expression, “Can any of you prove that I framed Connor?”

When everyone heard Rubin’s words, they were all stunned. No one dared to stand up and say anything.

After all, the person who had a conflict with Rubin was not Connor, but Maya.

If the person who had a conflict with Rubin was Connor, then these people would definitely stand on Connor’s side. However, the person who had a conflict with Rubin was Maya. The situation was different.

“See? I already said that no one can prove that I framed Connor. Since no one can prove it, then I’ll be leaving now!”

Rubin looked at Maya and sneered. He got up and was about to leave.

Maya glared at Rubin. She was livid, but there was also a sense of helplessness because she really did not know how to deal with someone like Rubin.

“Connor, what are you still standing there for? This person was the one who took the lead in framing you. If you ask him to apologize to you, he definitely won’t dare to not apologize!”

Maya turned look at Connor and shouted.

When Connor heard Maya’s words, he couldn’t help but hesitate for a moment. Then, he said indifferently, “Forget it, there’s no need to be calculative with such a person!”

Maya looked at Connor in disbelief.

She had never thought that Connor would be so cowardly. Even Adam and Winston were so afraid of Connor, but at this moment, Connor actually did not dare to settle the score with Rubin!

If Rubin had not been fanning the flames, how could Connor have been chased away by John?

Connor’s current thoughts were very simple, that was, it was better to avoid trouble.

In any case, he had already achieved his goal today. The Phillips Family was more or less afraid of Connor. He felt that there was no need for him to make a big deal out of it. If his identity was exposed, it would be too much of a loss.

“Haha…”

After hearing Connor’s words, Rubin couldn’t help but sneer. Then, he whispered, “Trash is trash. What right does he have to make me apologize?”

Although Rubin did not say this very loudly, everyone present heard it.

In an instant, the entire restaurant fell into a deathly silence. Everyone was stunned.

Although many people used the word trash to describe Connor today, after experiencing that incident just now, they no longer dared to say that Connor was trash.

Rubin didn’t seem to realize what kind of influence these words would have on him. He turned around and was about to walk out of the restaurant.

“Stop!”

Before Rubin could walk out of the restaurant, Brooklyn Phillips suddenly shouted coldly.

When Rubin heard Brooklyn’s voice, he hurriedly stopped in his tracks and turned to look at Brooklyn. He chuckled and said, “Grandpa, are you leaving with me?”

Brooklyn did not answer Rubin’s question. Instead, he walked quickly to Rubin with his walking stick.

“Grandpa, you’re…”

Rubin saw that Brooklyn’s expression seemed a little off and hurriedly asked softly.

“Go apologize to Mr. McDonald!”

Brooklyn shouted at Rubin expressionlessly.

Rubin, who had been arrogant just a moment ago, was clearly dumbfounded. He looked at Brooklyn in disbelief.

“Grandpa, what are you talking about? You actually want me to apologize to that tra…”

“Pa!”

Before Rubin could finish his sentence, Brooklyn slapped him across the face. Then, his eyes widened as he shouted, “I asked you to apologize to Mr. McDonald.. Did you not hear me?”
