Altha doted on her granddaughter more than anything in the world. Seeing the finger marks on her face, his expression turned even uglier as he glared at Lachlan.
He addressed him with a scowl, "Mr. Willis, what is going on here? I kindly asked Penelope to pick you up and yet you still laid your hands on her? And to make matters worse, you got into a fight with these kids right outside of my conference hall! Explain yourself or else today's event will no longer welcome you!"
Lachlan sneered at Altha's words and replied mockingly, "Why don't you ask your precious granddaughter for the details? As for this conference, I'm not interested anymore." With that said, he turned around and headed towards the exit.
In reality, Lachlan had no intention of staying after slapping Penelope.
"Stop right there!"
"What the hell! You can't just hit her and leave like that!"
"Security! Where are they? Stop him from leaving!"
Maxwell shook his head as he picked himself up from the ground before pointing at Lachlan while shouting loudly.
The other security guards stationed around the Manor hesitated before approaching Lachlan cautiously. They had all witnessed how he single-handedly took down a group of people earlier and were feeling uneasy about confronting him now.
Lachlan looked at them coldly before sneering again. "If I wanted to leave so badly, do you really think these people could stop me?"
Just then someone exclaimed in surprise, "Mr. Chambers and Mr. Austin?"
"Mr. Chambers, you're here too?"
"Mr. Austin, you guys arrived just in time!"
Following the sound, it was observed that at this moment, two middle-aged individuals were each accompanied by a group of powerful martial artists, walking in from another direction of the resort.
Upon seeing these two men, the rich second generation including Maxwell lit up with excitement.
"You little punk. I'll see how arrogant you can be now. You want to run away but today, you're not getting out alive." Maxwell pointed his finger furiously at Lachlan.
The other rich second generations followed closely behind him one by one, filled with righteous indignation as if they finally found someone who would stand up for them!
The man sporting a goatee was Zach Chambers, the current head of the Chambers family.
Next to him, another middle-aged man was Laurence, the second son of the Austin family and Alexander's brother. With the decline of the eldest brother Alexander, Laurence was now responsible for many matters concerning the Austin family.
At this moment, the onlookers cast various looks at Lachlan, showing either mockery or sympathy. The representatives of the two major families had arrived, and they were clearly accompanied by skilled martial artists. The guy who assaulted and sent Maxwell flying, at least, the Chambers family will not let it go without a fight.
Harlow and Romeo exchange a glance, watching this scene from afar, excitement evident on their faces.
"Haha, does Lachlan think he can run away?" Harlow laughed.
Romeo squinted his eyes, "The Austin family has people here too. Isn't Lachlan going to take revenge on them? This time, it's going to be quite a show!"
At this moment, Maxwell ran up to the bearded man, covering his face and angrily saying, "Uncle, you came just in time! I got beaten by him! Hurry, make him pay for it!"
