The lobby of the Sharpe Tower was unusually silent.
Every worker remained frozen in place, too shocked tobet.

Nobody dared to speak or take a step forward, fearing they might anger the enraged Lara and bring Trouble upon themselves.
Lara was slouched on the floor, clutching her swollen face, her expression blank and unresponsive.
Amid this oppressive quiet, several minutes passed before she let out a sudden scream, "Ah!
I
"That b*stard! I'll kill him! I'll make him suffer for this!
It was only then that she noticed the entire lobby was crowded with her subordinates.
Dozens of eyes were fixed on her disfigured face, making her feel utterly humiliated.
To Lara, this was an unbearable disgrace!
What are you looking at? What
did you see?"
Her frantic scream cut through the air like a blade, leaving everyone in the room on edge.
Almost all the staff swiftly averted their gaze, shut their eyes tightly, and chorused, "We saw nothing. All we see are work orders!"
This was their standard training mantra, yet it was being used here..
How unbelievable!
The bodyguards hurried over, forming a protective circle around Lara.
With her, assistant's help, Lara stood and spoke icily, "Lock down the building. If anyone breathes a word. of this, my family will make them disappear from this world!" Several senior managers wasted no time carrying out her command to close the doors.
Simultaneously, all employees had their phones confiscated and were ordered back to their departments to sign confidentiality agreements.
Right now, Lara paid no attention to the mysterious young man, Robin.
To her, Robin, who had stood up for Willow and Lorelai, was nothing more than a troublemaker from the lower ranks.
What truly mattered to her was preserving her image as the daughter of the prestigious Sharpes.
The humiliation of being beaten in public and forced to kneel and plead for mercy consumed her thoughts.
If word of this incident got out, it wouldn't just tarnish her name, it would disgrace the entire family,noveldrama

Before long, the head of the Sharpes, Lata's grandfather, Raiden Sharpe, arrived at the CEO's office of the Sharpe Group, accompanied by a team of family bodyguards and medical professionals. At the same time, Lara's fiance, Joe Sontag, a member of one of Brighton's top five wealthy families, received news of her ordeal.
Without hesitation, he hurried to the Sharpe Group
When Joe saw his fiancée harmed by an unfamiliar young man, his fury was uncontrollable.
Lara, don't worry. Even if I have to scour all of Brighton, I'll find him!" he promised.
"Whoever dares to lay a hand on my fiancée, I'll ruin everything they hold dear!"
Lara lay on the bed, too ashamed to even look up, her quiet sobs filling the room.
This was an unbearabile disgrace for her.
She intended to use this pitiful facade to force the Sontags into action on her behalf, especially in front of Joc.
If the Sontags intervened, that young man is definitely dead.
Raiden rapped his cane firmly against the floor, his voice filled with disdain, "Hmph! An ignorant fool dares to challenge my granddaughter? How audacious for a lowly commoner to defy our family! "Korbin, track this troublemaker down at once! I want him to realize that opposing my family is a path to
Overcome with rage, Joe grabbed his phone and initiated a video call to his mother, Janelle Pittman.
Janelle Pittman is Northville King's niece.
After marrying the Sontags, she brought immense influence, elevating them from an ordinary first-class family to one of Brighton's top five wealthy families in no time.
The Sontags are the only one among the top five wealthy families with direct ties to the royal family.
Although they typically maintain a low profile and avoid drawing attention, their private lifestyle is far more extravagant than that of the other four families.
The Sontags arrange everything to the standards of the Eight Great Royal Houses.
Such actions are unmatched in Brighton and even in all of Draconia-no other prominent or wealthy family dares to behave this way.
Even the other top five wealthy families don't challenge them.
The reason for the Sontag's boldness lies in the fact that their daughter-in-law, Janelle, is Northville King's
niece.
Within the Sontags, Janelle's word is law.
With such an influential background, how could Joe stand by and allow his fiancée to endure such

"A low-ranking guy with no known background dared to stand up for the poor child who donated blood to Lara, and he even had the audacity to strike Lara righ front of the Sharpe Group "Mom, her face is so bruised. She wont be able to make to the event tomorrow!"
Janelle, having been raised with refinement under the fluence of the Northville Residence, kept her composure.
She glanced at Lara and the others on the screen, speaking coolly. "The Sharpes' event can't be changed by tomorrow.

"If the Sharpes want to elevate their status, they cannot afford to break their word like this.
"Hurry and tidy up Lara's face. If necessary, she should attend wearing a mask and glasses!
We can claim to the outside that she simply caught a cold.
"She must be at the event tomorrow, no matter what!
"As for that troublemaker, the Sharpes can handle him themselves."
Joe frowned and said, "Mom, how can our family just stand by while Lara is in trouble?"
Janelle observed his worried face on the screen, sighed, and replied, "Joe, when will you learn to be more

After ending the video call, he turned to Lara with concern, saying, "Don't worry. Once Baylor finds out everything. I'll make sure to deal with that b*stard right in front of you!"
Lara nodded, resting in his arms, tears streaming down her face as she softly complained, Joe, how can I face anyone from now on?"

Joe gently reassured her. "Lara, focus on healing! Don't worry about this. I'll make sure that bestard pays you back a hundredfold!"
