Lorenzo Chen, begging for mercy, disgusted everyone around him.
He was a snob when he bullied others. When he met a person more powerful than him, he immediately became timid.
It was too disdainful.
Lorenzo Chen felt everyone's gaze, he was very uneasy and mortified.
Heinz Jones glanced sideways at Lorenzo Chen and chided, "If this happens again, you won't see the sun anymore."
"Yes," Lorenzo Chen immediately nodded with fear and said, "Don't worry, I won't do it again."
Lester took the opportunity to warn him. "Lorenzo Chen, you're really daring. I've warned you last time, but you refused to listen."
Lorenzo Chen lowered his head and said, "I won't do it again, I promise."
"You'd better remember!" Lester let go of him and returned to Heinz Jones's side.
Heinz Jones looked at Grace Smith and said, "Come on, let's have a meal together."
Grace Smith wanted to decline, "I—"
"Don't refuse." Heinz Jones interrupted her. He grabbed her wrist and grabbed her into his arms.
He put his arm around her shoulder and forced her out of the place.
His warm masculine scent surrounded her. Her head was forced to lean against his chest and she could listen to his strong and powerful heartbeat. Her mind was in a mess.
Soon, they arrived outside.
Grace Smith was disoriented. She frowned, "Mr. Jones, let me go. I can't walk like this."
At the entrance of Entertainment Daily, Heinz Jones let go of her and stared at her without saying a word.
She was uncomfortable being watched. "Thank you for helping me out, Mr. Jones. I'm done with my work, so I'll go now!"
Grace Smith turned and left.
Heinz Jones grabbed her collar from behind and brought her back. "Where do you think you're going?"
"I need to take care of some personal matters," she replied.
She had to pick up her child.
"Have you forgotten what I said just now?" Heinz Jones raised his eyebrows. His eyes were sharp. How dare she to refuse him.
Grace Smith said, "I didn't forget about it, but I really have something to deal with."
"You don't want to talk about the advertisement deal?" Heinz Jones tried to tempt her again.
Grace Smith stopped and was a little tempted.
She hesitated.
Heinz Jones waited in silence patiently, his gaze fixated on her.
Grace Smith pondered for a few seconds and said to Heinz Jones, "Wait for me for a few minutes. I'll grab some things from the office."
"Sure." Heinz Jones was not in a hurry. "I'll wait for you."
"Okay!" Grace Smith quickly turned back to the office.
Before she entered the office, she heard Lorenzo Chen's grumbling, "That b*tch dares to do this to me. She forgets she needs to work here!"
"Stop that!" Lilian Ross reminded him, "You just got beaten up and now you are provoking her again. Do you want to get yourself killed?"
"I can't stand it." Lorenzo Chen said, "I won't give up so easily."
