Upon seeing so many people waiting here, Miranda's beautiful eyes filled with anger and coldness. She knew that most of these people were here to watch her and Lachlan make a fool of themselves. Of course, not all of them were like that!
In the crowd of the Lowe family, Emmanuel, Cara, and Mason were also present. Their expressions were somewhat solemn and worried, but they still supported her in their hearts.
"Well well well, so many people? Are you really that idle?" Lachlan sneered as he scanned the crowd.
"No worries! Being a person means being honest! Since we made a bet with you, even if I'm busy I still have to take some time out to enjoy your dog barking," Harlow teased playfully. Then she shook something in her hand - it turned out to be a dog leash.
"By the way, don't forget to wear this when you bark later - it'll look more authentic! Hahaha..." Harlow laughed uncontrollably while other people joined in on mocking Lachlan one after another.
"So are you ready to call me daddy?" asked Lachlan expressionlessly.
Hearing this question Harlow was stunned for a moment before bursting into laughter, "You stubborn nobody! You're still talking tough at this point?"
"We all know how things are going. I thought you had some way to unfreeze the account? Are you really going to beg Mr. Gallagher for a meal?" Eliza mocked.
"Mr. Gallagher would never agree, even if the sun rose in the west! How naive and foolish," Romeo sneered.
"Yeah, you're just wasting our time with your boasting," others chimed in.
Mason, feeling indignant for Lachlan, spoke up, "Can't you guys speak nicely?"
As members of the Lowe family, no one was afraid of Mason and everyone spoke their minds freely.
At that moment, Victoria knocked her cane a few times and said sternly, "Enough!" Everyone quieted down immediately.
The real head of the Lowe family walked out next and looked at Lachlan and Miranda, "Alright now, don't make yourselves more of a joke. Young man, since you made a bet then honor it. When it's time to bark like a dog later on make sure everyone can hear you loud and clear."
"As for Miranda here," she continued while looking at Miranda with an icy smile. "Just marry Mr. Austin obediently and stop causing trouble for our family."
It was all because of this guy, who kept contradicting her in the family. He had repeatedly embarrassed her in public before. How could Victoria not hold a grudge against Lachlan?
"Grandma, the company's account will be unfrozen soon! We won!" Miranda spoke up firmly.
Everyone paused for a moment before showing their disbelief.
"How is that possible?"
"Are you kidding me? You think treating him to dinner will solve everything?"
Victoria snorted coldly, "Do you really think Mr. Austin's connections can be shaken by just one meal with you guys?"
"That's right! Miranda, are you trying to stall for this guy?" Romeo sneered.
Harlow teased, "Miranda, are you saying it'll only be unfrozen by the end of today? No problem. We have plenty of patience and we'll wait until midnight if we have to listen to this guy dog bark!"
"I'm telling the truth! Lachlan invited Mr. Barker from the Banking Supervision Committee and Mr. Gallagher agreed to unfreeze it!" Miranda gritted her teeth as she spoke.
Upon hearing this, Victoria snorted coldly. "Morgan Barker? Miranda, you've learned to lie now! What's Mr. Barker's status? Why would he be willing to come at Lachlan's request?"
