"Mr. Quinn, this woman must apologize to my daughter," Terence Thorne approached, "My daughter has always been gentle, and today I must stand up for her."
"Hit soone?" Jared Quinn’s eyes turned chilly as he glanced towards lody Thorne, the deep darkness in his gaze spread like ink, making it impossible to determine whether the man was about to erupt in anger or if he was rely asking casually.
But everyone in the hall laughed, because based on past experiences, lody Thorne would definitely be dragged out by security and thrown outside.
"Hmm..." lody Thorne’s small mouth tilted slightly, her head cocked to one side, her clean and pure gaze like a little girl oblivious to the world, she shrugged her hands, "No, I didn’t."
No? That word almost made Ellie Thorne spit blood, nearly ruining her ladylike image as she yelled furiously—not her doing, then where did the fingerprints on her face co from?
Ellie Thorne took a deep breath, covering her face with one hand as tears fell, "Mr. Quinn, it was her who hit , she really did."
The frail voice tinged with crying would invoke protective instincts in any man.
lody Thorne scoffed coldly, when they were younger and Ellie didn’t like her, she would hit lody, then cry and tell the Thorne Family that lody hit her, and lody would get another beating,
During that ti, she had so many injuries but there wasn’t a single person who saw them.
Seeing his daughter in tears, Terence Thorne imdiately felt a pang of heartache, angrily saying "What ’no’? Everyone in the hall saw it clearly, everyone here can be a witness!"
As Terence Thorne’s words fell, the people surrounding them, watching the drama, began to chi in, "Yes, yes, we all saw lody Thorne hit Miss Thorne."
"Miss Thorne just said a couple of words to her, and she just started hitting."
"Poor Miss Thorne didn’t even fight back."
lody Thorne’s gaze lowered; ever since her parents were gone, she had always been alone, and now things were just like before, everyone would place the bla on her.
In Jared Quinn’s eyes, lody Thorne’s lowered head appeared pitiful, seeming like she was the only person left in the world.
This wasn’t the first ti he had seen this situation from her.
When she raised her head again, lody Thorne’s lips held a faint smile, her bright eyes carried a hint of mischief, as if everything just now was rely an illusion created by others, "There should be a reason to hit people, right? Why would I hit her? Besides, a woman like her in show business should be an expert at acting, and the last thing I care about is hitting an actress!"
"lody Thorne!" Ellie Thorne couldn’t hold back and called out.
But as soon as she shouted, the hall fell silent, everyone looked at Ellie Thorne, sowhat incredulous, who would have thought that the previously frail woman could shout so powerfully.
Standing behind Jared Quinn, Secretary Su silently swallowed, indeed, won shouldn’t be judged by their appearance.
"I... I..." After shouting, Ellie Thorne imdiately regretted it, nervously looking at Jared Quinn, "Mr. Quinn, you have to believe ."
"Miss Thorne," Secretary Su spoke up, he had always been adept at reading people’s expressions, especially following soone as dangerous and unpredictable as Jared Quinn, cautiously glancing at the man’s expression before speaking, "I just saw that you made the first move."
