Chapter 337 He Hit You For a Reason
Altha doted on her granddaughter more than anything in the world. Seeing the finger marks on her face, his expression turned even uglier as he glared at Lachlan.
He addressed him with a scowl, "Mr. Willis, what is going on here? I kindly asked Penelope to pick you up and yet you still laid your hands on her? And to make matters worse, you got into a fight with these kids right outside of my conference hall! Explain yourself or else today's event will no longer welcome you!"
Lachlan sneered at Altha's words and replied mockingly, "Why don't you ask your precious granddaughter for the details? As for this conference, I'm not interested anymore." With that said, he turned around and headed towards the exit.
In reality, Lachlan had no intention of staying after slapping Penelope.
"Stop right there!"
"What the hell! You can't just hit her and leave like that!"
"Security! Where are they? Stop him from leaving!"
Maxwell shook his head as he picked himself up from the ground before pointing at Lachlan while shouting loudly.
The other security guards stationed around the Manor hesitated before approaching Lachlan cautiously. They had all witnessed how he single-handedly took down a group of people earlier and were feeling uneasy about confronting him now.NôvelDrama.Org © content.
Lachlan looked at them coldly before sneering again. "If I wanted to leave so badly, do you really think these people could stop me?"
Just then someone exclaimed in surprise, "Mr. Chambers and Mr. Austin?"
"Mr. Chambers, you're here too?"
"Mr. Austin, you guys arrived just in time!"
Following the sound, it was observed that at this moment, two middle-aged individuals were each accompanied by a group of powerful martial artists, walking in from another direction of the resort.
Upon seeing these two men, the rich second generation including Maxwell lit up with excitement.
"You little punk. I'll see how arrogant you can be now. You want to run away but today, you're not getting out alive." Maxwell pointed his finger furiously at Lachlan.
The other rich second generations followed closely behind him one by one, filled with righteous indignation as if they finally found someone who would stand up for them!
The man sporting a goatee was Zach Chambers, the current head of the Chambers family.
Next to him, another middle-aged man was Laurence, the second son of the Austin family and Alexander's brother. With the decline of the eldest brother Alexander, Laurence was now responsible for many matters concerning the Austin family.
At this moment, the onlookers cast various looks at Lachlan, showing either mockery or sympathy. The representatives of the two major families had arrived, and they were clearly accompanied by skilled martial artists. The guy who assaulted and sent Maxwell flying, at least, the Chambers family will not let it go without a fight.
Harlow and Romeo exchange a glance, watching this scene from afar, excitement evident on their faces.
"Haha, does Lachlan think he can run away?" Harlow laughed.
Romeo squinted his eyes, "The Austin family has people here too. Isn't Lachlan going to take revenge on them? This time, it's going to be quite a show!"
At this moment, Maxwell ran up to the bearded man, covering his face and angrily saying, "Uncle, you came just in time! I got beaten by him! Hurry, make him pay for it!"
"Yes! Yes! Mr. Chambers, you must help us!"
"It's that guy, he's too arrogant!"
"Daring to act so recklessly in Capital! He completely disregards the Chambers family!"
The group of rich second-generation individuals added fuel to the fire. On the other side, Altha, seeing the core members of the Chambers and Austin families, blinked a few times, not saying anything.
Although he invited Lachlan, his granddaughter was the one beaten by him, so Altha had no intention of intervening or helping Lachlan.
Penelope, covering her face, revealed a gloating and resentful expression. In her heart, she hoped that someone can teach Lachlan a lesson and help her vent her anger.
At this point, Zach stroked his beard, coldly glancing in Lachlan's direction. However, upon closer inspection, the representative of the Chambers family, in charge of negotiations, suddenly froze, his facial expression seeming off. Surprise, suspicion, caution...
As he hesitated and felt uncertain, Laurence was seen striding toward Lachlan.
Seeing this, everyone assumed that Laurence was bringing people over to severely punish Lachlan. However, the next moment was shocking.
"Mr. Willis, is that you? What's going on? Did someone provoke you? You tell me, I'll handle it for you. No need for you to take matters into your own hands." After coming over, Laurence politely addressed Lachlan.
Hearing this, everyone was left dumbfounded, staring at the new representative of the Austin family in disbelief.
What was happening?
This guy attacked the Chambers family's younger generation, and the Austin family's reaction was unexpectedly understanding?
Although the four major families in the Capital competed, they usually maintained a certain level of courtesy. At least in ordinary circumstances, they showed each other respect. But today, what was going on?
Was the Austin family openly turning against the Chambers family?
However, what happened next surprised everyone even more.
Zach's eyes flickered a few times as he saw Laurence's reaction. How could he not be sure who Lachlan was?
He pointed at Lachlan and asked Maxwell beside him with an angry expression, "Maxwell, is Mr. Willis who beat you up?"
Maxwell nodded arrogantly and proudly said, "Yes! It's this scumbag! Uncle, please help me get revenge!"
He thought Zach had taken his side so he started shaking uncontrollably!
But before anyone could react further, Zach slapped Maxwell several times across his face without hesitation.
"You troublemaker! Mr. Willis must have had a reason to hit you!"
After slapping him repeatedly, he grabbed Maxwell by his hair like holding a little chick, dragged him over to Lachlan.
"My nephew has no sense. Please don't be mad at him." He smiled apologetically at Lachlan after teaching Maxwell another lesson.
Looking at all these scenes unfolding before them, everyone present were completely dumbfounded!
