Victory in Life
Chapter 436
The InterContinental Hotel has been in operation for almost a decade now and has received many great figures in the past, but there has never been anyone who booked an entire hotel for an entire day.
It's not just about money, it's about status and identity.
At this moment, both the Gardner family and the Hull family felt a mixture of emotions.
Norman and Lan exchanged glances, realizing the regret and unease from each other's faces.
When they received the invitation today, they were so frightened that they almost escaped from the Swallow Capital.
The invitation was sent by Old Man Law himself!
If this invitation came at a later time, then no doubt it would be a great honor, even the invitation card was worth framing and displaying on the wall.
Now is not the time!
Turner and Law, both representing local parties and Harbor City business groups, are currently fighting each other!
All the other kings were hiding out for fear that they would suffer, not to mention the two of them who were only slightly larger than shrimp!
"Huh, we shouldn't have interfered in this from the start."
Inside the elevator, Norman sighed with an indistinct expression.
Norman felt a deep sense of helplessness when faced with two giants, Turner and Law, he did not have the slightest courage to fight them at all.
However, now that he had chosen to stand with the Turner family, Norman had absolutely no idea how he responded to the banquet invitation.
"It's too late for that" lan was calmer than Norman.
"Whatever happens later during the banquet, the two of us will remain transparent, don't make your stand easily no matter what the two sides say later!"
After hearing what Lan said, Lisa said indifferently, "You're too worried about Uncle lan? Law must have thought we were worthy and that's why they sent us invitations, there's no need to be too careful around them."
"Again, you know how close I am to Erik, Turner won't just stand on the sidelines and watch Law bully us"
Lisa's words made lan frown, she said flatly, "If the other party is really afraid of Turner, then Ben isn't lying in the hospital right now."
When she mentioned that Ben was currently lying in the hospital, Lisa's expression growled, the anger in her eyes flashed as she gritted her teeth and said, "Ben's hurt and I'm not just gonna let this thing go!"
As he spoke, the elevator door opened.
They were swept away by the tense atmosphere.
Norman, Lan, and Lisa look up and see Erik and Brad face off against Henry and Zachary.
Although they did not know what had just happened, everyone present at the scene was not a fool and could easily tell that the air floating above their heads was extremely tense.
"Erik!" Lisa called out to him, wanting to show everyone that she had a unique relationship with Erik, she rushed over to Erik and grabbed his arm, asking gently, "Are you okay?"
Erik was very upset, but he felt it was inappropriate to let go of Lisa's hand in front of Norman and Lan, then he said with a cold expression, "I'm fine, I'm fine, I just met a shitty guy, that's all"
Henry looked at Lisa, "Shut your stupid mouth, witch, know where you are, who says it's your turn to talk?"
Lisa's countenance changed instantly, with the Turner and the surrounding elders, Lisa filled with a wave of confidence that had never been experienced before, she immediately said, "The Law family invited me, "The Law family invited me, so why can't I talk?"
"Your grandfather sent an invitation, so who are you to criticize me? you better stop being arrogant and talk to me well, otherwise, when I see your grandfather later, I'll ask him what's wrong with his family's education!"
As soon as he said those words, the expressions of everyone on the scene suddenly changed.
Especially Norman and Lan, they know that Lisa is in trouble and desperately want to keep her mouth shut.
Is this something that can be said casually?
Even Erik and Brad looked at Lisa as if she was a fool.
Brad, especially, in order to gain the support of Norman's Haddock Chamber of Commerce, he even planned to make Lisa his son-in-law, but right now, it seems like this woman is too risky to marry into her family.
Zachary looked at Lisa, judging from her status and identity, nothing Lisa said could anger her, let alone make her attack or lecture her herself.
That doesn't mean that Zachary can tolerate when Lisa insults Law.
"Is there something wrong with Law's family education? I thought the Gardners had a really good family education?" Zachary asked gently, looking at Norman.
Norman's skin paled suddenly, he was already used to all kinds of storms out there, but even so, his legs still continued to tremble and tremble.
"I can explain, Mr. Law, I failed to discipline this young lady, I will teach her a lesson soon, I respectfully ask you to let this matter stop, he said, no offense to the babbling of children"
Before Norman could finish his sentence, Lisa said loudly, "You don't need to apologize, father, do you remember how Henry treated us when he came to our house? he made you very angry and almost put you in the hospital, he's even more arrogant out there!"
"Since the Law elders are here today, I will say it!"
Henry narrowed his eyes at Lisa and asked, "I'm arrogant? how's it?"
After saying that, Henry raised his hand and hit Lisa's face without warning.
The slap landed so hard that half of Lisa's face almost changed shape.
There was a loud and loud noise, followed by Lisa's deafening scream.
Henry looked at Lisa and said coldly, "Basic witch! did you really think I wouldn't drag you back up the mountain and bury you alive huh? you don't think I'm gonna touch you just because your dad and Erik are here?"
After that slap, there was a strand of blood hanging in the corner of Lisa's mouth, she covered her face, her head buzzing, under the humiliation and excruciating pain, she said, he felt as if he was going crazy.
"You hit me again, Henry Law? are you gonna put me in the hospital after hitting my cousin?"
"You witch! I don't think you're that stupid!"
Henry lifted his leg and kicked Lisa's stomach, cursing and roaring, "I don't usually hit women, but you're really something huh? you're forcing me to make this exception for once, how dare you say that Law is uneducated?"
