No one stopped Henry from slapping and kicking Lisa.
Even Norman himself could do nothing but suppress his heartache and fury.
After all, Lisa was the one who said the wrong things first, and Harbor City’s top-notch aristocrats were right in front of him. Norman had neither the qualification nor the guts to go against Zachary.
Though when he noticed that Henry was planning to kick her a few more times, Norman had no choice but to step in regardless of his fear of the Laws.
He stepped in front of Henry and begged for leniency with a smile on his face, saying, “Calm down, Mr. Law. Calm down. My daughter doesn’t think before she speaks. Don’t argue with the likes of her.
“It’s a great day today, let’s not ruin our moods for trivial matters like this, shall we? I will apologize on behalf of my daughter.”
When Henry saw how Norman was relentlessly apologizing, he sneered and said, “If your daughter was half as smart as you, things wouldn’t have gotten to this point either.”
Norman gritted his teeth in secret. The anger in his heart was boiling, but the smile on his face remained. “Please forgive my daughter, Mr. Law. Look, why don’t we all go in first?”
Henry narrowed his eyes a little unwillingly. He had planned to use this opportunity to teach Lisa a lesson.
Henry had done many evil deeds since childhood, hence it was impossible for him to feel sorry for a girl, let alone appreciate her.
When fury tore through him, he did not care who the other party was and would hurl punches first thing itself.
What was more, Lisa had provoked and annoyed him over and over again.
Henry had tolerated her for a really long time now.
Just as everyone thought that this was all over, Imperial Ballroom’s door opened.
Jasper and Anna walked out while talking and laughing.
