Upon hearing this, Alyssa was overjoyed.
She quickly ran over to Lennard and held his arm.
"That's so sweet of you, honey!"
Lennard pinched Alyssa’s butt hard with a guffaw, saying, "That's of course! Don't worry, Now that
you're my woman, no one can bully you! Let's go and let me avenge you!"
Alyssa's face glowed with delight.
Holding Lennard's arm, she excitedly led Lennard and his men straight to the private room upstairs.
Upon arriving at the private room, Lennard kicked the door open and barged in right away.
As soon as he entered, he saw a bunch of people kneeling in the room; they were all Calvin's men.
Swaggering into the room, Alyssa said loudly, "President Abbott, we don't have to be afraid of them!
Now that Lennard is here, I'd like to see what they're capable of! Weren't you acting all cocky just now,
you brat? Come on and try pulling that off again in front of my hubby!"
Those in the room were all drinking.
Upon hearing Alyssa’s words, they looked up at her.
Calvin was standing at the door while making a phone call.
Upon hearing Alyssa's voice, he immediately turned to look at her with fear written all over his face.He
kept shooting glances at Lennard, motioning for him to leave as soon as possible.
Alyssa didn't understand what Calvin meant, though.She laughed, saying, "President Abbott, go and
have a rest first.Lennard will definitely avenge you for this!"
Calvin nearly exploded with rage.
He came over and slapped Alyssa twice across the face, swearing, "Shut up, you b*tch! When is it your
turn to speak here? Get the hell out of here!"
Alyssa was stupefied; she didn't expect to be slapped by her boss after she brought help over.
Immediately, she hugged Lennard next to her.
"Hubby, look what he did to me..."
Lennard was just about to speak when Calvin shot him a glare.
"Get out of here! Don't you see that the heads of the Ten Greatest Families of Eastshire are having
dinner with Billy Newman's successor and the crown prince of Mightwater here? Who do you think you
are to go in and out of here as you please?"
In just a few words, he pointed out the identities of those in the room.
Just then, Lennard also noticed that those in the room were indeed the heads of the Ten Greatest
Families of Eastshire, and his face turned deathly pale all at once.
It didn't matter who the two young men were.
Since the heads of the Ten Greatest Families of Eastshire were having dinner with them, they had to be
someone he couldn't afford to mess with! Most importantly, he heard clearly how Calvin had addressed
the two young men.
One of them was Billy Newman's successor, whereas the other was the crown prince of Mightwater!
Lennard had never heard of the two of them before, but a person who could be Billy's successor
mustn't be ordinary.
After all, Billy had nearly become the King of the South.
Who would have the nerve to mess with his successor? The same thing could be said of the crown
prince of Mightwater.
Lennard wasn't even as powerful as Calvin was.
Even Calvin had to kneel down before the crown prince, let alone him.
At this moment, Lennard was so frightened that he broke out in sweat.
He slapped Alyssa across the face, saying, "Get lost, you b*tch!"
Then, he hastily put his hands together and said in a trembling voice, "I-I'm really sorry, everyone.A-
Actually, I-I just heard that you guys are here and wanted to drink a toast to you guys.I really didn't
mean anything else.P-Please forgive me if I've offended you."
As he spoke, beads of sweat ran down his face to his neck.He was so scared that he nearly peed in his
pants.
Meanwhile, Alyssa was stupefied on the spot.She had thought that this Lennard guy whom she was
carrying on with was the kind of big shot who possessed great power.
Who would've thought that he would be so frightened in front of these people in the room? She felt like
she was going to suffer a nervous breakdown at this moment.
She couldn't help but recall what Lucy had previously told her—about Matthew being a man not to be
trifled with.
She didn't take Lucy's words seriously at the time, but now, she finally realized that what Lucy had said
was true!
