Upon seeing Lachlan standing in front of her and hearing his words, Miranda felt a slight sense of relief. She knew that she wouldn't need to intervene in this situation today. While she excelled in the business world, dealing with these types of confrontations was not her strong suit.
"What did you say, bastard?" Dominic glared at Lachlan and questioned him menacingly.
"Who do you think you are? Your boss hasn't spoken yet, so why are you barking like a dog?" Rose's face immediately turned red as she pointed at Lachlan's nose and yelled excitedly.
"You nasty woman! You can't talk about my Daddy like that!" Nora heard her father being insulted and immediately became upset. Pouting her little face angrily, she shouted back.
"Who do you think you're talking to? I'll slap the hell out of you!" Rose sharply retorted as she raised her hand to slap Nora. However, there was no way that Lachlan would let Nora get hit. He quickly pulled the little girl behind him while his eyes turned completely cold.
"What are you looking at? Is this your daughter? Her father likes to bark like a dog so now even the little ones have learned how to bark too?" Rose cursed and was vulgar.
Lachlan's words just now made her feel like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.
The next second, she coldly looked at Miranda and said, "Ms. Lowe, I never thought you would stoop so low as to go after a man with a child. Are you that desperate for a man? What kind of person does that make you? Even if you want a gigolo, at least find someone young and handsome!"
Miranda blushed in embarrassment and didn't know how to respond to Rose's rude behavior.
Rose intentionally raised her voice so that everyone around them could hear.
People nearby started pointing fingers and gossiping about the situation.
Seeing this scene unfold before them, Rose finally felt relieved while Dominic sneered repeatedly.
They were here today specifically to humiliate Miranda. Humiliating Lachlan was just an added bonus since they saw him as nothing more than Miranda's lapdog.
However, despite being publicly humiliated by this couple, there was an eerie smile on Lachlan's face - almost sinister!
In the moment when Rose slapped Nora across the face earlier on in their confrontation with each other; Lachlan knew exactly what he needed to do.
Some people may look glamorous on the outside, but they never knew how ugly they were underneath until they uncovered their facade.
"You're not lacking in men, are you? How many times have you cheated on your husband?" Lachlan sneered.
Rose's face immediately changed and her voice became sharper. "What did you say, you bastard? Say it clearly! Who cheated on my husband? You're talking nonsense!"
Dominic's face also turned very ugly as he pointed at Lachlan fiercely. "Kid, watch your mouth! Apologize to my wife right now or I'll beat the crap out of you! No one can protect you!"
What was the biggest shame for a man?
Being cuckolded!
When Lachlan publicly accused Dominic's wife of cheating on him, it was like slapping Dominic in the face.
The CEO of this pharmaceutical company was furious.
"Ha ha, she spends your money recklessly and even gets sick from playing around outside. And yet, here you are still protecting her?" Lachlan calmly delivered his words with deadly impact like a deep-water bomb exploding.
As soon as he finished speaking, all eyes shifted from Miranda and Lachlan to Dominic and his wife who were being talked about by everyone around them.
"What did you say? You're sick! Your whole family is sick!" Rose was becoming hysterical, jumping up and down while cursing at Lachlan.
As she spoke, she even raised her hand to hit him.
Lachlan quickly dodged, saying "Don't touch me, you're too dirty!"
"You better explain yourself clearly, boy! What disease are you talking about?" Dominic's face changed as he asked with an uncertain expression.
