"I'm sorry, did my father steal your woman?" Charlotte retorted with a smile.

All of a sudden, there was a dead silence.

No one had expected that Charlotte would talk back. Not even Avery and Shane.

They all felt that in the face of such an unreasonable and disgusting man, the rational response was to ignore him and let it be.

"Are you provoking me?" Mr. Kent slammed his hand on the table. "You're younger than me, how dare you talk to me like that?"

"I'm sorry but I've never seen an elder who is as shameless as you. It's bad enough that you take advantage of your own seniority, your breath even stinks like rotten eggs."

Avery couldn't help but laugh.

Mr. Kent pointed at Charlotte and said, "I have to teach you a good lesson today?"

Charlotte had never been afraid of anything since young. She crossed her arms and looked at him with a cold smile. It was as if he could do whatever he wanted but she would not be intimidated.

As the president, Ashley felt that it was not appropriate for them to do this but he also did not like Avery.

Who in the world would like Avery?

Thus, he let Mr. Kent do whatever he wanted with Charlotte.

Just as Charlotte prepared herself to face Mr. Kent, she was suddenly pulled into a warm embrace.

Charlotte felt as if the whole world was spinning. In an instant, she could only breathe in the scent around her.

She froze for a moment before raising her head subconsciously.

Shane had appeared behind her at some point.

He stretched out his hand to cover her eyes. As she was about to struggle away, she heard a muffled groan from Mr. Kent. She stopped moving.

Then she heard Shane's cold voice next to her.

"How dare you bully my people?"

Charlotte's body stiffened.

Ashley immediately stood up with a smile when he realized the situation had got out of control. "Mr. Fuller, I think there's been a misunderstanding. Mr. Kent didn't know Miss Charlotte is with you."

"You may not know she is on my team, but don't you know my company is working with Avery?"

"This..." Ashley quickly picked up a handkerchief to wipe away the sweat on his forehead.

Who would have thought that Shane would speak up for Avery?

Shane had always been known as a cold and apathetic person.

At this time, Elaine stood up to take charge of the situation. She wanted to play nice. "Mr. Fuller, there's no need to make the situation worse because of a woman. Why don't we sit down and talk it through? Besides, Mr. Kent has already suffered the consequences of your anger. What do you think?"
