Grace Smith felt sour, but she did not say anything.
She really did not expect that Heinz Jones would come to Entertainment Daily, and would help her as soon as he came.
It was not that she could not avoid Lorenzo Chen's slap, but if he slapped her in the face, everyone would see through his real character.
However, she did not expect Heinz Jones to come.
She was a little overwhelmed, but the most important thing was that she felt stuffy. Indescribable emotions brewed in her heart.
Heinz Jones was not angry that she remained silent. He spoke in a gentle voice that everyone could hear, "Remember, when someone bullies you next time, give me a call and I will clean up the mess."
Grace Smith pursed her lips and thought "Call him?¹'
He was not even related to her.
Heinz Jones raised his hand and reached out to Grace Smith.
Grace Smith was shocked and instantly stepped back,
but he did not allow it. His pair of big hands, overbearing and gentle, covered her head, smoothing out her messy bangs.
She looked into his eyes in surprise.
Heinz Jones smiled gently, looking elegant and noble. "Stand by my side and see clearly what his revenge would be."
His tone suddenly turned harshly, "Lester, the lesson you gave Director Chen last time seemed to be too soft. He can't remember it. This time, increase the intensity."
"Yes!" Lester replied in a deep voice, "Don't worry, president. I won't let you down again."
As he spoke, Lester approached Lorenzo Chen.
Lorenzo Chen was still traumatized by the thought of the last time he was beaten. When he saw Heinz Jones with his assistant again, his rebellious spirit was gone without trace.
"The employees are all still here. If I'm beaten now, how can I face them in the future?" Lorenzo Chen thought.
He did not dare show that he was timid, so he turned to Grace Smith for help. "Grace Smith, we can solve this in private, but you troubled Mr. Jones. Are you trying to make a big deal out of it?"
"Pa-" A clear slap sounded on his face.
Everyone was terrified.
Grace Smith was also shocked. Lester only took back his hand when he saw a clear mark on Lorenzo Chen's face.
"Director Chen, if it's according to what you said, slapping you is no big deal for me."
Lorenzo Chen was at a loss for words.
The air froze, no one dared make a sound.
Lorenzo Chen did not even dare to breathe. He was shocked by the strong aura of Heinz Jones and his assistant.
"Mr. Jones, please forgive him. It's a misunderstanding." Lilian Ross quickly stepped forward, took Grace Smith's arm ingratiatingly and winked at her, hoping that she would put in a good word.
Grace Smith assessed the situation. If she did not do Lilian Ross a favor, it would be very difficult for her to work in Entertainment Daily in the future. On the other hand, if she did, she would feel wronged.
Lorenzo Chen was malicious. He wanted to use her, but his plan faced a backlash. He deserved punishment.
Grace Smith did not want to embarrass Lilian Ross, so she paused and deliberately whispered softly. "Lilian, I also think it's a misunderstanding. I'm worried about Director Chen's accident, but he misunderstood me and gave me a slap in the face. I'm defenseless. I really can't continue to work here after being slapped."
With this, she lowered her head and covered her face with both hands. She looked very weak and pitiful.
Heinz Jones was taken aback seeing her like this, his eyes twinkled. "Since when did this girl become frail?"
She was usually not like this.
