After the bodyguards let her pass, Wendy hurried to Todd's side.
Todd watched coldly as she approached him. When she reached his side, he turned on his heels and left without another word.
"Todd..." Wendy chased after him, apologizing, "I'm sorry, Todd, I didn't want to go to the washroom with him. I was afraid he would harm you."
"So what you mean is, I am not a match for him and need a woman to protect me?"
Todd was furious. "Corrine, is that what you've always thought of me? That I am a weak, useless man? You've completely disgraced me!"
"I did not think that! That's not what I mean." Chasing after Todd, Wendy reached out for his arm. "Todd, forgive me, please! It's my fault. I disgraced you. I will not do it again!"
Todd pushed Wendy away from himself.
The force from that shove sent Wendy tottering on her high heels and ended up with her on the ground after losing her balance.
