Chapter 339 Do I Need to Explain to You?

Romeo and Harlow were both taken aback when they heard the man say that the Britt family was finished.

"Finished? What... what does that mean?" Harlow asked.

"It means just what it sounds like, doesn't it? The Britt family is done for!" The man sneered before adding in a hushed tone, "I heard they've been completely wiped out. Who knows how many people have died? Even the head of the Britt family is gone, and many other members are being hunted down. Now there are only three major families left in Capital."

Upon hearing this news, Romeo and Harlow exchanged a shocked look.

"Why are they finished? Who did this?" Romeo asked while taking a deep breath.

"I don't know. The information has been blocked," replied the man who seemed to not want to say anything more on the matter.

At this moment, both Romeo and Harlow wore expressions of disbelief as they stared at each other with wide eyes.

"Dad... if the Britt family is finished and yet everyone from the Austin family treats Lachlan so kindly... could it be that Lachlan had something to do with it?" Harlow's face twitched as she spoke while looking at Lachlan who had just entered into the conference hall accompanied by Laurence and Zach.

Her expression was one of utter disbelief.

Romeo took another deep breath before replying gravely, "It's possible! Either way, let's stay away from him today. And Harlow…don't go around provoking that guy anymore! Let's go inside now; our mission today is to network, nothing else."

Harlow nodded her head in agreement saying "I understand". She then spun around once before asking her father, "Dad…do you think I'm pretty?"

"Of course you're pretty! You're my daughter after all," replied Romeo with a smile on his face. He added confidently, "You'll definitely be able to charm all those young talents today!"

Both father and daughter carried an unspoken question within them: did Lachlan really have such great abilities? Did he really cause destruction upon the entire Britt family?

...

Once inside of conference hall area, Lachlan found himself a spot where he could eat some free buffet food while waiting for things to get started officially.

Fraser had mentioned earlier that whoever performed best during this exchange would receive a Thousand-Year Snow Lotus plant.

It seemed like there would be some sort of medical competition involved. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.

Lachlan couldn't help but feel excited about it all!

He was sitting there, and from time to time, many beautiful women and socialites approached him, wanting to get to know him and strike up a conversation.

After all, many people had seen what happened outside the lobby just now.

Many women who thought they were attractive suddenly became interested in Lachlan.

If he could be treated politely by the representatives of both the the Chambers family and the Austin family, he must have some background.

Many people thought that Lachlan was a wealthy heir from some family!

However, Lachlan did not show any special interest in these beautiful women. He responded casually with an indifferent attitude towards them all.

Meanwhile on another side of the room, Penelope joined several rich girls together.

"Penelope, what's this guy named Willis' background? How can even Maxwell's uncle treat him so politely? And Laurence from the Austin family also treats him respectfully."

One rich girl whispered her thoughts aloud.

"I don't know!"

Penelope replied coldly while shaking her head. She stared at where Lachlan was sitting with resentment in her eyes.

"Penelope! Your grandfather asked you to go pick him up; he must want you two to get together! Look at how many other girls are trying to get close to him too. You're much prettier than those girls; your chances are definitely better."

Another rich girl suggested enthusiastically.

Hearing this suggestion made Penelope glare coldly at her companion while gritting her teeth, "What do you mean? Are you calling me a loose woman?"

"No no no! That's not what I meant. Penelope... you misunderstood me! I'm just saying that since Lachlan is so powerful, if you could develop something with him, it would be good for you..."

The other girl kept waving her hands apologetically while explaining herself awkwardly.

"Screw off! Who cares about that guy? What makes him so great anyway? He's just an uncivilized scumbag!" Penelope retorted harshly with a cold face.

"Oh well then don't go if you don't want to... why do we have to argue?" The rich girl who had been insulted by Penelope looked aggrieved as she pouted and spoke back.

At this moment Penelope touched half of her face which still hurt after being slapped earlier today. She felt more resentful towards Lachlan as she sat there thinking about it more deeply.

In fact, she felt like she couldn't take anymore humiliation today. She, Penelope, had never been treated like this before!

Even if she could say something back against Lachlan, it would make things better for herself.

Thinking like this, she glared fiercely in his direction before snorting contemptuously.

The next moment, she stood up and gritted her teeth, saying, "Fine! I'll go! But I'm not going to show any favor to him like before. I want him to know that I still look down on him!"

With that, she walked over towards Lachlan with a cold expression on her face.

Lachlan was currently enjoying some free food and drinks when he saw the woman approaching. This made Penelope feel even more disdainful towards this man.

When he saw the woman coming over, Lachlan couldn't help but pause for a moment with a hint of confusion in his eyes.

"What's up?" He glanced at her sideways and asked expressionlessly.

Penelope sneered and said mockingly, "Do you think you're really something? In my opinion, you're just a small person with some kind of twisted taste! Don't think that just because the the Chambers family and the Austin family are polite to you means everyone will look up to you! I can tell you right now that I still look down on you!"

Upon hearing this statement from Penelope, Lachlan simply smiled faintly and said indifferently, "You came all this way just to say these things? Does it have anything to do with me whether or not you look down on me?"

Penelope's tone suddenly faltered upon hearing his response. Seeing how indifferent he was acting only served as fuel for her anger.

The next second, she gritted her teeth again saying, "You're nothing but an insidious little man who seeks attention from others!"

"I seek attention from others? An insidious little man?"

Lachlan couldn't help but furrow his brows slightly as he questioned back. He had no intention of dealing with this woman in the first place but why did she insist on continuing their conversation?

Penelope sneered once more showing an extremely contemptuous gaze, "Isn't it true though? Pretending to be weak is so interesting? Isn't that seeking attention from others? You think it's cool acting like this, don't ya? Having money or power can allow one's modesty shine through appropriately. However, someone who purposely acts pretentious like yourself is shallowly laughable in my opinion."

"Heh..." Lachlan laughed silently without words.

"What are you laughing at?! Am I wrong about what I said?! If it wasn't intentional, then why wear such plain military clothing or take public transportation instead of driving your own car? Why would

someone stoop so low as picking up one hundred dollars off the ground, let alone actually taking a taxi here?"

Upon seeing Lachlan mocking smile once more while looking at herself made Penelope's face turn red out of anger.

She continued questioning non-stop, making sure every word hit its mark.

Looking at this woman before him only made Lachlan's disgust grow stronger.

He felt nothing but complete disdain towards women like these.

The next second, he had no expression on his face and said calmly, "Do I need to explain how I do things to you?"
