Debbie raised her fist and threw it at Lewis’ face. Although Lewis knew next to nothing about martial arts, he was a fan of boxing matches, and was fast enough to dodge her fist.
Seeing Debbie start a fight, Portia ordered Ralph in a harsh voice,
“Why are you still standing there? The bitch dares to beat Lewis! If he gets hurt, do you think you could afford it?”
Ralph didn’t dare to offend either side, so he told the bodyguards,
“Stop them!”

“Escalate to whom? Is it Carlos you’re banking on? Shouldn*t you be ashamed of calling on another man to fight the stupid scuffles you started?” Debbie snapped
Seeing Debbie not convinced, Lewis took his phone out from his pocket.
Just then, she Landed a punch in his belly. He winced in pain.
Joining in, Kasie took the chance to slap him across the face. A humiliated Lewis shouted to the bodyguards, “Drag them away!”
Helpless, yet fumed with rage, Portia thought to herself, ‘Who does she think she is?! She used to be the dog ofand my brother.’ In her high heels, she rushed to Debbie and grabbed her arm.
“Debbie, if you dare touch Lewis again, I swear it will be the end of you and my brother!”
“Huh?” Debbie’s jaw dropped.
“Are you kidding me? You think the Gomez family is something I give a damn about, don’t you? To be honest, your family was even no match for Jared’s family before. It is a stroke of luck that Hayden has managed to improve the lot of the Gomez family in the last few years. So stop showing off. You are just from a nouveau riche family.”
The blunt truth in Debbie’s words incensed Portia. With a sour face, she snarled, “Shut up, bitch!”
“Your mouth stinks!” Debbie shook off Portia’s hand.
“Portia, I’m not the old Debbie anymore. I don’t give a hoot about you or your stupid brother. I’m going to teach this Jerk a lesson today. Oh, don’t worry.

Before Debbie could finish, Portia gave her such a heavy slap that she could feel color flaming up in her cheek.
Kasie, who was blocked by two bodyguards, heard the slap and turned to look what happened. When she saw Debbie’s swollen cheek, she broke herself free, charged forward and yelled at Portia, “Portia, how dare you hit Debbie! You will pay for this!”
Not knowing Debbie’s strong backer, Portia gave Kasie a mocking smile and taunted, “Really? I don’t think I’ll pay for it. Debbie is just a worthless bitch who used to suck up toand my brother.”
Two bodyguards helped Lewis to his feet. As he adjusted his clothes, he scowled at Ralph and demanded, “Tie them up.”
Ralph held Debbie’s coat with utmost care, aware that it was worth over
$300, @0@-not something he would wish to compensate for, even if he could afford. All the same, there was no way he could disobey Lewis’ orders. So he called on his men, “Hear Lewis? Do as he says.”
Debbie got raving mad when she remembered the last tshe was slapped
