Chapter 18 Looking Out for Us

Claire didn’t have to turn around to feel Elena’s scornful stare.

She had just eaten many snacks and was no longer hungry. She was craving the sweet and sour spare ribs. At that moment, she set the serving tongs down and turned to leave.

However, Elena grabbed her hand and said, “Ms. Lawrence, you bought so ma snacks. Why do you have to compete with us for these? Put your dish down and go have your snacks.”

Claire frowned. Elena had been quite friendly before, so why was she targeting her this way?

Julia rushed over and pushed Elena aside. Then, she pulled Claire close behind her.

“Elena, what’s the matter? Don’t go after Claire!”

Julia wasn’t strong. But Elena fell to the ground after she pushed her. Those who were close by could see she was acting.

“Ahh …” Everyone eating looked up when they heard a loud noise.

They hadn’t spotted them before, but now they saw Elena seated on the ground, with Julia in an aggressive stance. Elena had been a victim of bullying.

Elena’s assistant was the first to arrive. She helped Elena from the ground as they walked over with their plates.

“Julia, don’t you think you can be so rude to Elena just because you work for

Ms. Lawrence? Speak away, but why did you hit her?”

The assistant was quick to confront. Moreover, since everyone had just seen Elena on the ground, they would likely believe the assistant’s words. Mr.
