But Baron ignored them and kept walking, with his usual tranquility.
The first man nearly managed to reach Baron, but he was ricocheted off by a powerful force. He flew out, knocking over several men behind him, then fell to the ground.
It was only then that they realized the first man was kicked away by Baron! What a powerful kick!
In fact, Connor was even more shocked. The scene brought up some memories that the same thing had happened to him. Last time at Blue Sky Kindergarten, he had been kicked hard like this.
Baron didn't kill anybody, but he kicked away anyone who tried to attack him. Not long afterward, dozens of men fell to the ground, screaming and begging.
Even dozens of his men couldn’t hurt him. That was probably one of the most unbelievable things Connor had ever seen.
Connor, Lucy, and the crowd were all stunned by what they saw. This was unbelievable!
Led by Baron, Yuri felt happy and reassuring. Unaccountably, next to Baron, she was no longer afraid of anything.
Connor was trembling from head to foot. She finally realized that Baron was far stronger than Charles!
Baron stepped up to Connor. “Do you still want Yuri to spend a night with you?” He snapped.
Connor stood motionless, stunned. Upon hearing this, he shook his head quickly and said,” No, no! I’m not stupid enough to do a thing like that! You must have misheard.”
“Do you still want to chop my hand?” Baron continued with a sneer.
Connor was frightened out of his wits. He could feel cold sweat trickling down. Wiping away his cold sweat, he shook his head and said, “I'm not, I'm not. I promise!”
“But your wife hit my mother-in-law and took something from her. What're you gonna do about this?” Baron said with a smile, which made Connor’s hair stand on end.
Just then, Connor turned around and smacked Lucy right across her face. He shouted, “You son of bitch! Just look at what you’ve done! Kneel and beg Mr. Owen to forgive you!”
Without her husband’s support, Lucy was scared. She fell on her knees and begged to be forgiven, “Mr. Owen, I was wrong. I shouldn't insult and hit your mother-in-law.”
As she spoke, she began to slap herself. The loud slaps echoed around the hall.
Lucy was genuinely fearful, or she wouldn't have slapped herself so hard. Soon, her cheeks were reddened and swollen.
“You need to be honest with me and I will let you go! Tell me what the hell happened between you two!” Baron said.
Lucy stopped slapping and told the truth.
It turned out that Lucy had her eyes on Sherry’s Jade bracelet, so she walked right into Sherry and broken her own bracelet deliberately. That way she wanted to get Sherry’s Jade bracelet in compensation, which finally caused the dispute.
Connor grew angry as he knew the truth. Lucy was his wife and a key member of the Johnson family, and she could get whatever she wanted. Why would she do something like this?
Tracy felt something was wrong, but she had no doubts about her mother. She stood up and told to Lara, “Sweetheart, let’s go!”
Just then, Baron and Yuri entered, followed by Connor and Lucy. Their appearance scared Sherry half to death.
“Uh, no! Stay back! Stay back!” Sherry stumbled backward and then pointed at Baron. “It's all his fault! He slapped your wife! I didn't have anything to do with it. Let me go, please!” Sherry begged Connor.
“What's wrong with you? Mom.” Tracy listened to her mother’s words with wonder.
Yuri was very disappointed in her mother. She sneered, “Baron, what you have done for Mom turned out to be a wild-goose chase. She doesn't deserve it!”
Tracy still didn't understand what they said, but she knew something must have happened.
Connor gave Lucy a shove and shouted, “Apologize, now!”
Lucy took off the jade bracelet and handed it over. “Ma'am, it was all my fault. I'm sorry. I coveted your bracelet and did something wrong. I'm here to return this. I hope you can forgive me,” she said.
At this, Sherry was too shocked to move. She could not understand why Lucy, coming from the Johnson family, apologized to her and returned her bracelet!
Tracy's face darkened with anger as if she had started to understand. “Mom, you're gonna tell me what's going on.”
