Chapter 79 How Formidable
Luca murmured to Harriet, “Miss Harriet, that’s the woman who came up to me and kicked
me to the ground for no reason.”
Without even sparing anyone else a look, Harriet stared fixedly at Gianna and strode up to
her, “You’re quite savage, huh?” The corners of her lips twitching, Gianna patiently
explained, “I’m not savage. I feel just the same way you’re feeling right now. You came
over to retaliate on behalf of your friend just as I retaliated on behalf of my friend. He
started the incident.”
Snorting, Harriet demanded fiercely, “So, you’re saying that it was my brother’s fault?”
Gianna, on the other hand, remained smiling. “Nothing is ever incidental.” “Miss Harriet,
it’s that woman who hit me first,” Luca whispered into Harriet’s ear. All at once, Harriet
looked at Kate, her gaze so ferocious that it resembled the vicious gaze of a wolf. Kate’s
knees buckled in terror at her look. No wonder this woman can compete with men in the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtbusiness world. She’s just so fierce. “He insulted me first. I was incensed, so I slapped
him.” Harriet continued staring at Kate, looking as though she’d raise a hand against her
anytime. “So, it was indeed you who hit him first?”
Taking a step forward, Gianna shielded Kate behind her. “I wasn’t planning on taking
things too far since we’re all in the same circle and would meet frequently, but it seems to
be out of my control now. “Madam Grant, if someone insulted you, groped you, and even
asked you to sleep with him, would you be able to control yourself from slapping him?”
Harriet narrowed her eyes and looked at Luca suspiciously, instantly scaring him so greatly
that his heart stopped beating for a moment. Gazing at her, he hastily explained, “Miss
Harriet, that’s a lie. It was her who invited me to do a photo shoot for her magazine. I’ve
never even heard of that magazine, so I declined, but she kept harassing me. Frustrated
with the harassment, I indeed told her to get lost and dressed her down for taking
advantage of my popularity, only to have her claim that I’ve insulted her. She then
slapped me right across the face. Miss Harriet, I’m truly innocent to have disaster befalling
me from nowhere.” “Nonsense!” Kate was so livid that her face had turned bright red. At
this moment, she disregarded all modesty and snapped at him, “It was you who said that
you’ll only accept the invitation if Gianna and I spend the night with you!” Naturally,
Harriet didn’t believe Gianna and Kate’s words. Her face darkened at once, and she
thundered, “I don’t care what’s incidental and what’s deliberate. Since you hit my brother,
I won’t just let this slide. Either apologize to my brother, or I’ll have someone hit you back
in return. Your choice!”
Just as her words fell, an extremely soft sneer sounded. “Ah, how formidable, President
Grant!” This exclamation instantly attracted everyone’s attention. That’s right! These two
ladies are acquainted with Silas Nolan, so he’ll probably intervene, no? There’s bound to
be an interesting show. Her brows knitting together slightly, Harriet looked over in the
direction of the voice. At this time, the man who was sitting on the sofa while surrounded
on all sides was leaning back against the sofa languidly with his legs crossed, his hands
holding a cell phone that he was tapping nimbly as though playing a game, his entire
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmperson appearing rather willful and arrogant. Harriet’s expression froze for a moment
before she smiled and walked over to Silas. “You’re here as well, President Nolan?”
Without even lifting his head, Silas replied, “From the very beginning.” Chuckling in
embarrassment, Harriet said, “I was enraged over my brother’s incident, so I didn’t notice
you. How remiss of me!” As she said that, she took a glass of wine from the server. “I’m
sorry, President Nolan. Here, I’ll drink to you as an apology. Please don’t take offense at
me.”
Silas didn’t raise his head, so he naturally didn’t raise his wine glass either. Instead, he
continued playing the game on his cell phone. All at once, the atmosphere plunged into an
awkward silence, and everyone stared at him in incomprehension.
