Chapter 115 Misunderstanding
“Say that again.” Mrs. Lance put down her chopsticks and looked serious.
She seemed to have heard the person’s words clearly, but she didn’t believe what she had just heard.
“Mr. Lance… Something has happened to him!” “The waiter’s chest heaved violently as he gasped for breath
before finally getting the words out of breath.
This time, Mrs. Lance finally understood.
“How could anything happen to Jerry? What the hell is going on?!” Mrs. Lance stood up in a hurry.
Natalie had a worried look in her eyes..
“Julian, he… He wanted to force Mr. Lance to sign the contract, but Mr. Lance refused… Julian was about to
hurt Mr. Lance, and the bodyguard was too strong for Mr. Lance…” The waiter sputtered these words.
“If things keep going like this, Mr. Lance’s life is in danger…”
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Lance’s wrinkled hands trembled slightly. “How dare he! How dare he hurt my
grandson in front of me?!”
Natalie frowned even harder. Julian wanted to hurt Jerry just because Jerry refused to work with the Graham
family…?
It was very unlike him.
Julian was not the kind of person who would directly hurt someone with a single word. And he had his own. principles in business. He understood that business was like war, and that people could be shot in the back
or even broken to pieces if they made the wrong move.
So he was very cautious in his actions.
Could Julian, being so discreet, really hurt Jerry?… Or was it the Graham family’s last resort, forcing him to
abandon his principles?
Natalie thought about it and decided that the latter was more likely.
“How dare he did that in our territory? Did he really think we’re pushovers?!” “Mrs. Lance went straight out.
“And go downstairs and call all the bodyguards!”
The waiter nodded at the command and immediately trotted out.
Mrs. Lance walked towards the outside and suddenly remembered that there was someone else in the room. She turned her head and spoke in a somewhat flustered tone, ‘Ms. Spears, I am so sorry that I can’t entertain
you today.”
Natalie saw that Mrs. Lance had not failed to apologize in such an urgent situation. She got up quickly and
said, “You should go. It’s Mr. Lance’s safety that matters.”
Mrs. Lance nodded and disappeared at the door.
Only Natalie was left alone
Her furrowed brow had not eased from the beginning, but now she stood in place with a solemn expression.
She was wondering whether she should go along. Mrs. Lance didn’t even forget to apologize to Jerry before she left. Now, instead of doing anything, she just left.
Did it make her seem too heartless? But even if she did, she wouldn’t be much help, would she?
Natalie pursed her lips, her heart wavering
However, one thing was certain that the reason why she hesitated to go was not because she was afraid of being seen by Julian.
In fact, she was not at all afraid of being seen by Julian in the Lance Family’s mansion now… In the past, she might have been struggling with how to explain her whereabouts.
But she didn’t have to do that anymore
For some reason, ever since Julian kicked her out of the Graham family’s mansion, and thinking he was
cheating on her.
Natalie felt that a corner of her heart had collapsed and her mind was awake.
The Graham family was now acting like a chronic disease, which corroded and burned Natalie’s heart bit by
bit. Although her heart could not die completely, it would consume all her emotions one day…
On that day, the Graham family and she were completely strangers
What Natalie was worried about was that if she got there now, what if Jerry gave up and blew her cover?
“So everything I’ve done over the years to cover up my identity will be in vain.”
Natalie hesitated for half a second, but she decided to trust Jerry.
Then she took a quick step towards the next door.
Meanwhile
Mrs. Lance stormed into the room with an angry look on her face, shouting, Julian, if you hurt anyone in the Lance Family’s territory, I will sacrifice my life to make you pay for it.”
The room was completely silent.
Mrs. Lance was stunned. When she entered, she did not see the dangerous sight she had imagined. Her
precious grandson was sitting in a chair, intact.
“What… ?”
“Grandma, you’re here…” Jerry quickly stood up and walked forward to help her.
Mrs. Lance was confused, “I thought something happened to you? What’s wrong?”
76.33%
“This is a long story… “Jerry didn’t know how to explain it.
When Julian saw them, he stood up and looked at Mrs. Lance. ‘Mrs. Lance, I’m Julian, president of the
Graham Group.”
“I know you. There’s no need to introduce yourself.” Mrs. Lance’s tone was not very nice.
Before she could finish her words, a large group of bodyguards suddenly surged into the door. There’s no
room for so many bodyguards, and most of them were standing outside the door.
Their expressions were all very serious, and everyone was ready, as if they would fight directly with a Content rights belong to NôvelDrama.Org.
command.
‘What does this mean? Julian said with a half-smile as he looked at the crowd of bodyguards surrounding the
room.
In the crowd of bodyguards standing outside the door, he saw Natalie, standing awkwardly.
She had made up her mind to help Jerry, but as soon as she went out, a large group of bodyguards suddenly swarmed the hallway.
Before she could stand to one side, she was forced to move forward with them, and was thus pushed to the
door of the next room.
And Natalie was dressed in black today, so compared to the bodyguards in black suits, she blended in perfectly.
She was just standing there, trying to get out but she couldn’t move
After a failed attempt to get out, she looked at the scene in the room through the gap. She was stunned.
Natalie blinked. She didn’t understand what was going on. Jerry was standing there unharmed and there was obviously no sign of a struggle.
Didn’t the waiter say something had happened to him?
Jerry heard Julian’s question. He turned to look at the bodyguards and said, “Because Mr. Graham’s behavior was so misleading, The Lance Family sent the bodyguards upstairs for safety reasons.*
His tone was neither servile nor overbearing, but it was clear to Julian that he had lost the courtesy and respect as before.
“There’s no danger now, so is there any need for so many people here?” Julian raised his eyebrows.
“Tell them to go out. We have things to talk about.” Julian’s tone was light, but there was an innate sense of command.
Natalie listened carefully to their conversation and knew what was going on. What just happened was clearly a misunderstanding.
She was relieved.
“Tell them all to get out?” Jerry looked at the man in front of him and repeated his words.
“Yes.” Julian nodded. “It’s a misunderstanding. There’s no need to be so nervous.”
Get Bogus
Natalie stood in the crowd. She didn’t feel much for Julian, but she agreed with him. Since there’s nothing wrong, she could just go home.
So she wanted to get out of the crowd as soon as possible, hoping that the bodyguards would go down to their posts.
Mrs. Lance said, “I think it’s necessary. Just let the bodyguards stand here and nobody should leave.”
Julian’s face suddenly changed when he heard this remark, which was clearly against his order.
