Chapter 215 : Chapter 215 : Baron Lawrence Can Also Say Sorry
The first time Baron Lawrence was patting somebody’s back, his hand was alternatively heavy and light—he couldn’t control the strength very well. He initially felt a bit stifled, however, only regret remained when he saw Enna Clark’s pale little face.
The restaurant manager waiting at the entrance saw them coming and scurried to greet them, nodding and bowing: “Young Master Lawrence, you’re here.”
“Am I? Or did you just see a ghost?”
Unfortunately, the manager found himself under fire, getting scolded. He could only muster a forced smile, still clueless, “Young Master Lawrence is quite humorous, haha.”
Baron Lawrence was not as indulgent with him as he was with Enna Clark. His chilly gaze swept over the manager, who struggled to keep the forced smile glued on his face. Beads of sweat formed on his forehead, utterly at a loss as to why he had offended the notable figure.
Enna Clark experienced a bout of dry heaving, but there was nothing she could throw up. After slowly recovering, she finally felt a little better, though her face remained rather pale, her lips a shade lighter than usual. She retreated a few steps, avoiding Baron Lawrence’s hand. Her clear eyes glowed a shade of flushed red from the nausea, emotionlessly stared at him for a few moments, then calmly sidestepped him and said, “I need to leave now.”
From the moment Enna dodged him, Baron Lawrence had already tightly pursed his lips, his hand involuntarily clenched. When she walked past him, he quickly grabbed her wrist with his left hand.
Suppressing her rage, Enna sternly demanded, “Let go!”
“You refuse to let go?” She was so angry she could laugh, she started to struggle fiercely, not caring if she might hurt herself in the process.
Seeing her wrist turning red, Baron Lawrence tightly pursed his lips and let her go.
Enna Clark glared fiercely at him, rubbed her own wrist, and stormed off toward the car.
Her purse was still in the car. Even if she wanted to leave, she had to pick up her purse first!
The car had been driving so fast earlier that her purse had slid under the seat. Enna located the purse and proceeded to pick it up.
All of a sudden, with a click, the car door was shut on her. It took her a moment to react, only to realize the door was already locked from the inside.
Calmly, she looked at the man beside her, picked up her purse, and tried to pull open the door, only to find out it was locked from the inside, making it impossible to open.
The suppressed rage in Enna’s heart was completely ignited.
Contrary to her usual buoyant temperament, she slammed her purse onto the seat angrily, and glared furiously at the man beside her, grinding her teeth as she condemned, “Baron Lawrence, are you aware you were speeding earlier?!” “Do you realize how dangerous that was? One misstep, we could have had an accident and been killed! How would my family fare if something happened to me?!”
“There wasn’t going to be an accident.”
“How do you know that? What if there was? No matter how good your driving skills are, or how fancy your car is, accidents can still happen! What happens then?!”
The rage was surging wildly in Enna Clark’s chest!
She had never been this angry before, and she had never raged at Baron Lawrence with such righteous anger.
But she was absolutely furious this time!
Even when angry, he shouldn’t have risked their safety!
“Did you ever consider the consequences of causing an accident!”
For the first time, Baron Lawrence was being bombarded with accusations from a woman!
His male ego made him darken his expression, yet seeing the gleaming vulnerability in the young woman’s eyes, his anger subsided. He slowly lowered his high head, his lips brushed against each other as he said, “I’m sorry, I wasn’t considerate.”
Enna Clark still had a slew of complaints in her heart.
When she heard this, she couldn’t help but stare.
Did Baron Lawrence just apologize?
Was she hearing things, or was it for real?
“I did indeed drive a bit too fast earlier, but this car has been modified for military use. Its safety factor is higher than you could imagine.” Enna Clark opened her mouth to retort, but Baron Lawrence continued before she could, assure you, this won’t happen again..”
