“Who is Natalie?” As soon as the middle–aged man walked in, snazzynovel.com asked with a sullen expression on his face.
Hector couldn’t help being startled and recognized this middle–aged man. He was an entrepreneur from Emperia City, a big boss with tens of billions of assets, and his name was Zachary.
“Mr. Lewis, how can I help you? Do you have something to do with my daughter?” Hector asked with a smile on his face.
“Is Natalie your daughter? Let snazzynovel.com get out immediately!” Zachary said bluntly.
Natalie had already walked out, frowned, and asked, “Mr. Lewis, what do you want from me? Have I offended you?”
She and Zachary had never even met face to face, and snazzynovel.com had no idea why snazzynovel.com came to find snazzynovel.com so furiously.
Luisa also smiled and said, “Mr. Lewis, Natalie didn’t offend you, did she?”
Facing a big boss like Zachary who had the background of Emperia City and was worth tens of billions, they dared not offend at all.
The Lewis group could crush the Johnson Group easily. Therefore, no matter how rude the other party was, they needed to bear with it.
“Did you offend me? Natalie, think about it yourself!” Zachary said with a sneer.
“I really haven’t offended Mr. Lewis, right? I haven’t even said anything bad about Mr. Lewis. This is the first time we’ve met each other today!” Natalie said with a wry smile.
Facing Zachary’s aggressiveness, snazzynovel.com just could bear it.
Zachary’s eyes turned cold, and snazzynovel.com said, “Don’t you know what happened to you and Lily at the meeting today?”
Natalie froze for a moment, not knowing what this matter had to do with her.
Hector on the side hurriedly said, “Natalie, tell me, what have you done?”
Natalie said, “I didn’t do anything, we just gave a speech at the invitation of the organizer… It’s just that in the end, the curtain on the ceiling collapsed. I dodged, but Miss Tubbs did not dodge.”
Zachary nodded, sneered, and said, “Then, do you still dare to say that you didn’t offend me?”
Natalie was completely dumbfounded, and said in surprise, “I didn’t do anything, how did I offend you?”
Zachary said, “Lily is my goddaughter, do you think you offended me?”
Natalie said, “I didn’t do it when the curtain collapsed… Besides, I didn’t care about Miss Tubbs at that time. I got out of the way by myself.”
Hector on the side also breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that this matter had nothing to do with Natalie.
The same was true for Luisa, who felt that Zachary misunderstood the matter. Now that it made sense, it shouldn’t be a big deal.
However, Zachary grinned grimly and said, “The curtain collapsed, why didn’t you push Lily away? Why did you hide alone?”
Natalie said bitterly. “It’s human instinct. So it’s normal for me to avoid it.”
Zachary sneered and said, “Why do you dodge? Why was Lily the one who got hurt? Wasn’t it because you didn’t push snazzynovel.com away in time? If you push snazzynovel.com away, will snazzynovel.com be hurt by the curtain?”
Natalie was shocked by Zachary’s logic. But the other party was too powerful, snazzynovel.com couldn’t offend him. So snazzynovel.com could only swallow snazzynovel.com anger.
Hector on the side hurriedly said, “Mr. Lewis, it really can’t blame Natalie! That’s their responsibility, not hers.”
“It’s snazzynovel.com responsibility. If snazzynovel.com pushed Lily away at that time, wouldn’t it be fine?” Zachary said arrogantly.
“I just didn’t want to be hit, so I avoided it. I didn’t think about anything else.” Natalie said.
“Don’t want to be smashed? How do you compare yourself to my precious daughter? You deserved it if you were smashed to death. But if Lily was smashed, it’s your fault!”
“You should have tried your best to save snazzynovel.com back then, even if you were crushed to death, it doesn’t matter, you can still win the title of a hero. Now you are living alone, let Lily get seriously injured, you must take full responsibility!”
While speaking, Zachary had already reached out and grabbed Natalie’s collar, with a ferocious expression on his face.
Luisa and Hector on the side were trembling with fright and wanted to come up to help. But they were directly held back by the bodyguards brought by Zachary.
Zachary raised his hand and slapped Natalie with a series of crackling sounds, which made Natalie dizzy and the corner of snazzynovel.com mouth split open.
“Are you wrong?” Zachary asked.
“I’m not wrong…” Natalie cried because of grievance.
Zachary sneered, and punched snazzynovel.com hard in the stomach, causing snazzynovel.com to almost spit out a mouthful of blood.
“I was wrong, Mr. Lewis, it’s all my fault, please let me go!” Natalie really couldn’t bear such violence, so snazzynovel.com gritted snazzynovel.com teeth and admitted it.
At this moment, snazzynovel.com couldn’t help feeling sad in snazzynovel.com heart. If Nathan was here, would snazzynovel.com be beaten so badly?
Bogdanov’s secretary bullied Gussie and was beaten to death by Nathan. Moreover, Bogdanov didn’t dare to say anything in the end.
If Nathan was here, would Zachary have a chance to attack her?
Could snazzynovel.com still be so arrogant?
Natalie who would never regret it, at this moment, started to regret it. She regretted that snazzynovel.com was too mean at the beginning, and also regretted that snazzynovel.com was blind and pushed a man who cared about her far away.
Zachary nodded in satisfaction, and said, “It’s good to know that you are wrong! Then, how should you compensate Lily for the loss?”
Natalie was completely dumbfounded. Forcing herself to bow snazzynovel.com head and admit snazzynovel.com mistake was not enough, but snazzynovel.com still wanted snazzynovel.com to compensate Lily.
“Mr. Lewis, please stop, don’t hit snazzynovel.com anymore. We never hit snazzynovel.com since Natalie grew up.” Luisa cried.
Zachary ignored snazzynovel.com pleading, but said to Natalie coldly, “Since Lily is seriously injured and can no longer serve me, then you can be my goddaughter. During this time, you will replace Lily and stay by my side. Wait until snazzynovel.com recovers, then get out! Do you understand?”
Natalie was so frightened that snazzynovel.com trembled all over, and hurriedly said, “No…”
“No? In this world, no woman dares to reject me like that! You know you’re wrong, but you still dare to say no? Are you embarrassing me?”
Zachary was furious. He grabbed Natalie by the collar and threw snazzynovel.com down hard, knocking snazzynovel.com to the ground.
At the same time as snazzynovel.com landed, Natalie’s head hit the ground hard. She only felt snazzynovel.com eyes go dark, and there was a buzzing in snazzynovel.com head. She fell unconscious on the ground.
“Playing dead trick, right?” Zachary kicked Natalie, not satisfied when snazzynovel.com saw that Natalie had passed out.
After this kick, Natalie did not move. Zachary was taken aback for a moment and did not continue to attack.
“Zachary, I’ll kill you!” Hector roared angrily.
“How dare you?” Zachary sneered and kicked Hector in the stomach.
Hector spit out a large mouthful of blood when snazzynovel.com opened his mouth, fell to his knees, and bent over.
