Chapter 242
Several girls glared at Leonard. Although they were furious, they didn’t dare
speak up. Beatrix was also momentarily at a loss for a good solution and was
thinking about how to counter the other party’s intimidation.
At this moment, Elizabeth suddenly exclaimed in excitement, “Look, isn’t that
Dr. Lowe and Claudette?”
Instantly, Beatrix looked over, her eyes showing astonishment. No wonder
Elizabeth was so excited, and everyone around us was acting so nosy. Why is
Manuel carrying Claudette on his back? Oh my God! If Mackenzie sees this,
who knows how she will react? Seeing that, she didn’t dare continue
provoking Mackenzie as Terence instructed, afraid of the lady’s wrath.
When Isaac and Jonathan saw the two, they were shocked and couldn’t
believe that Emmanuel and Claudette were still alive. Damn it! They slept
together outdoors yesterday. They must have done everything! They felt like
they wasted their efforts in preparing a perfect opportunity for Emmanuel
and even made themselves anxious.
“Alright, everyone is here now. Please leave.” Although Isaac was angry, he
couldn’t do anything to Emmanuel in front of so many people.
Seeing Emmanuel and Claudette, Elizabeth, Beatrix, and the others didn’t
intend to continue causing trouble. They quickly retrieved their phones and
prepared to leave.
Unexpectedly, Claudette bellowed with all her breath, “No! We were attacked
with real guns yesterday, and someone released a venomous snake to
murder us. I’m not letting this go just like that. I must know the truth and bring
the culprits to justice.” Whoever did this has to face the music!
Although she usually appeared gentle and elegant, when she was truly
angry, her wrath would be terrifying. Someone tried to harm me and Dr. Lowe!
I will never let the person off lightly!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“What? Seriously?”
“Real guns and a venomous snake? Is that for real? T–That’s horrifying.”
The young students turned pale with fear.
Meanwhile, Beatrix and Elizabeth glared at Isaac and Leonard, demanding an
explanation. Isaac felt slightly panicked. Since that was a real incident, he
had no idea how he could argue.
So, he quickly looked at Leonard. Seeing that, Leonard understood
immediately and shouted angrily, “Don’t you dare spread false accusations!
We have been operating this place for many years, and no such thing has
happened before. If that happened, do you think we could still be in business
today? Now, get out! If you continue spreading false accusations, don’t
blame us for being impolite.”
As he spoke, his subordinates also joined in the intimidation. Some even
brandished their weapons, intimidating them.
Silence engulfed the place as all eyes turned toward Claudette. After all, they
were not the ones who witnessed the venomous snake or saw the crime
scene. They only found out through hearsay.
Just then, Emmanuel suggested, “Should we call the police?”
“No need.” Claudette’s expression was completely different from usual, and
she said seriously, “These people wanted to harm you, Dr. Lowe. I will never let
them off.” After she said that, she looked at Elizabeth.
Elizabeth understood the assignment and couldn’t help but shiver when she
handed her phone to Claudette.
As Claudette took the phone, she wasted no time and dialed a number.
At this moment, Elizabeth’s eyes lit up. Things are about to get interesting.
These people have provoked our Princess Claudette. Good luck to all of you.
Emmanuel had never seen Claudette’s capabilities, but he knew she was
Roselynn’s boss and definitely had the means. I wonder what will happen
next.
Leonard, however, remained oblivious to the danger and provocatively
sneered. “Hahaha! Go ahead and call the police if you want. If they can’t find
any evidence, you’ll be in trouble for tarnishing our place’s reputation with
-false accusations. I’ll make your lives miserable!”
In fact, Isaac had already instructed them to clean up the scene, so any
bullets and snakes had been completely wiped away. If the police came,
they wouldn’t find anything.
On the other hand, Elizabeth found it amusing. Go ahead and be smug for
now. You will soon understand the true meaning of terror.
“Someone tried to harm me, Aunt Laura. Please tell my dad.” Claudette called
Laura and got straight to the point.
“What? Who dared to harm you? That’s fantastic… Uh… I mean, those
b*stards! I will teach them a lesson. If I don’t beat the crap out of them later,
you can consider me useless.” Laura’s excited scream came through the
phone. She had nothing to do all day except spend money, put on makeup,
and sleep. I finally have something to do today!
Her scream was so loud that Claudette felt extremely embarrassed because
Emmanuel was carrying her, so he definitely heard the sound from the other
end. Sigh, Aunt Laura is just… weird. Claudette hung up the phone after a few
words.
When Leonard heard the call, he couldn’t help but chuckle. I thought she
wanted to call the police, but instead, she called her aunt. Girls nowadays are
so dramatic, always asking for their mothers when something happens. They
never grow up!
Coincidentally, Isaac’s older brother, Matias Lane, called Leonard too.
“Leonard, what’s going on at the battlefield? Did Isaac call you guys for help?”
“Hahaha, it’s nothing. Don’t worry, Mr. Matias. It’s a few students feeling
wronged and asking for their mothers.”
“Asking for their mothers?” Matias was momentarily stunned. Why do I feel
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmsomething isn’t right? I feel like I have a vague memory of that phrase, but I
just can’t recall it now. “Well, as long as no one is killed.” He then hung up the
phone.
Initially, he didn’t take it seriously. After all, the Lane family had considerable
influence in Yeringham. As long as no one was killed, it wasn’t a big deal if
Isaac wanted to bully a few students. However, when he recalled the phrase
‘asking for their mothers,‘ he had a foreboding feeling.
“Asking for their mothers?!” He went to the bathroom, and the moment the
toilet was flushed, it suddenly came back to him.
He remembered that years ago, there was a tough guy in their school who
bullied a wealthy girl in his class. That wealthy girl had called her mother, and
in the end, a catastrophic chain of events unfolded.
In short, the horrifying scenes were permanently imprinted in his unconscious
mind. But I don’t think rich girls are into laser tag, though. It doesn’t fit her
demeanor.
However, due to his worries, he called Leonard again.
“Hey, boss, what’s up?”
“Tell me, Leonard. What’s the name of that girl who called her mother?”
“How would I know? Am I supposed to ask for her name every time I see a
beauty? Do you think I’m that kind of lecherous person? Haha!” In fact, it
wasn’t that he didn’t want to hit on Claudette. Rather, given the ongoing
conflict, he couldn’t do so.
“I’m serious. Does she look hot and elegant? Don’t tell me her last name is
Lenoir.”
“Wow, you’re really on top of things. She looks gentle and is indeed smoking
hot. What about her?” At this moment, Leonard also sensed that something
was amiss.
“F*ck! You guys are in deep trouble!” Matias screamed in panic. “Quickly
apologize to her! Remember, kneel down and sincerely apologize; otherwise,
you all will be completely screwed!”
