Chapter 1419: Chapter 1419: The Cold War Ended Before It Even Started Chapter 1419: Chapter 1419: The Cold War Ended Before It Even Started It was over, she had angered Baron Lawrence.
She was more frustrated than anyone.
It wasn’t intentional, just that in that mont, she’d had the illusion he would rember, which made her mind wander uncontrollably—it wasn’t a deliberate distraction.
Yet, this reason, she couldn’t possibly explain to Baron Lawrence.
She moved her lips but ultimately chose silence.
Baron Lawrence had been waiting for her to admit her mistake, but instead of that, all he got was Enna Clark closely watching the horizon’s profile.
His chest suddenly felt like it had been punched hard by soone, a sense of irritability surging up for no reason.
His eyebrows knitted then relaxed, relaxed then knitted again, even Scott Harris felt the sudden drop in temperature around them, looking at Ms. Clark several tis with an expression of wanting to say sothing yet hesitating.
What’s wrong with Ms. Clark, can’t she see Lord Lawrence is angry? Why not coax Lord Lawrence a bit, and why has she also fallen silent?
He was anxious in the background, but in reality, Enna wasn’t planning to coax at all.
She felt that Baron Lawrence’s temper was just like this, coming and going in bursts. Instead of now, walking right into the line of fire, better to wait a bit. After a while, when he forgot about the current episode, she would be fine.
That’s what she thought, but contrary to expectations, Baron Lawrence didn’t play by the book. Just as she had that thought, the man who was ignoring her suddenly grabbed her wrist tight, grinding his teeth as he questioned her, “Why aren’t you talking?”
Enna’s wrist hurt from his grip, she struggled but couldn’t break free, she said awkwardly, “I’m not… I didn’t… ”
“You did!”
“…”
“Why didn’t you speak just now?”
Enna felt that if she didn’t answer this question, he would probably be stubborn all day long, so she had no choice but to speak up, “Wasn’t it you who stopped talking to first?”
“So if I don’t talk to you, you’re not planning on speaking to !” The man with the originally gloomy handso face turned even more sullen.
Enna knew he would misinterpret her intention, and imdiately explained, “That’s not what I ant. I thought you temporarily didn’t want to talk to , so I stayed quiet to avoid making you more annoyed. I’ll speak when you want to talk to .”
The domineering man’s handso face softened a bit.
Enna pressed on, “I wasn’t ignoring you. If you still don’t talk to later, I will take the initiative to talk.”
Baron Lawrence felt the anger that had been pressing on his chest dissolve into nothing after her few simple words of explanation, even though he knew that this woman might not actually be the one to initiate a conversation, but the anger that had been on the verge of erupting simply dissipated so easily.
He pursed his lips tightly and released her restrained hand, his hawk-like eyes still holding a trace of irritability as he warned, “Rember what you just said. No matter what happens, you can’t give the cold shoulder. Otherwise…”
The threat was clear.
Enna had long been used to his threats, numbed by now, and emphasized again, “I’m not giving you the cold shoulder, you’ve misunderstood.”
“Misunderstanding or not, from now on, if I don’t talk to you, you still have to find topics to talk to about! If I ignore you, you need to keep talking until I pay attention! Before I talk to you, you’re not allowed to shut up!”
Enna’s forehead was streaked with several lines of perplexity, “…”
He was the one who didn’t talk to her first; now, he’s blaming her for being silent… With this kind of domineering logic, he’s almost like a bandit.
However, not even bandits have logic as overbearing as his; when he’s authoritarian, he surpasses any bandit!
