From the beginning to the end, Cormac did not frown at all and placed his injured hand behind him.
His expression was cold, but he didn’t look as calm as he seemed to be.
He stared at Beulah who was swearing at him, and his mouth tightened into a thin line as he was exuding a colder aura, “What are you still standing there for?”
The security guards immediately suppressed Beulah and dragged her out.
Like a mad woman, she acted hysterically and bit the guard.
“Cormac, you sexually harassed my daughter and didn’t even bother to take responsibility. You’ll die in horrible agony! Do you think you can do whatever you want just because you’re rich? Do you think you can get away with this because you have money? Should we be bullied by you just because we have no money and authority?”
Beulah yelled at the top of her voice. Her mind still seemed to be very clear and every sentence she said was meant for others to think she was bullied by Cormac.
She was the victim here.
Everyone who heard her realized there was something fishy.
Cormac harassed her daughter?
It was such a piece of shocking news.
Not only the employees of the company, but also the guards who arrested Beulah wanted to hear more about this.
Beulah wasn’t afraid to embarrass herself. She sat on the ground and cried loudly, “I have such a tough life. I only had one daughter and you violated her. There’s no place for me to reason. Is there still law nowadays? Why should the poor be bullied?”
People started gathering at the door and all eyes were on Cormac.
Cormac was offended. Loredana turned around and saw the blue veins standing out on his side profile.
She knew that he was extremely pissed.
She was happy that he hated Beulah, but it wasn’t the right time now because the crowd was still watching.
This man of high prestige was the target of a rumour. People would definitely start gossiping about him.
“She’s a crazy woman. Hurry up and get her out of here. Can’t you see she’s stirring up trouble here?”
Loredana said coldly.
“You’re the one that’s crazy!” Loredana’s words seemed to have triggered Beulah. While the guards weren’t paying attention, she pounced on her with hatred, “I’ll kill you!”
Loredana was so frightened that she retreated a few steps and heard a voice yelling, “Aren’t you looking for death!”
Beulah was kicked out once again. This time, it was more embarrassing than a moment ago. She was pushed to the ground and fell on her back.
Cormac stared at the security guards who couldn’t catch her, “What were you doing? Are you waiting to get fired?”
The guards broke out in cold sweats. Beulah had the chance to hurt people because they were too unwary of the situation just now. This time, they dared not neglect this issue again, or they might lose their jobs for real.
“Send her to the police station and report an attempted murder.” Cormac was really annoyed. He did not make any allowance for Beulah. The guilt of an attempted assault was totally different from that of an attempted murder.
The guards caught Beulah, dragged her into the car and sent her to the police station.
Beulah never stopped swearing when she was completely locked in the car.
“It’s over now.”
Cormac said in a cold tone and the crowd slowly dispersed. The man who talked to Loredana earlier quietly walked to her, “I didn’t expect you to be so brave that you dared to stand in front of Mr. Mendelsohn.”
“If you become familiar with Mr. Mendelsohn, he’ll definitely take notice of you in the future. After all, you risked your life to block the knife for him.” The man said with a little envious.
Loredana didn’t know what he meant until now.
He thought that she projected herself in front of Cormac on purpose?
Only she knew that she wasn’t.
She looked at Cormac’s injured hand, wondering how severe his injury was.
She never thought that he would catch the knife with his bare hand.
How painful that must be!
“What’s your name?” The man asked suddenly.
Loredana’s mind wasn’t in the man’s words, and she replied casually, “Loredana Flores.”
“Are you free tonight? Let’s have a meal together; I’ll wait for you after work.”
Huh?
Loredana turned around and looked at the man. Was he trying to ask her out?
You got to be kidding me. They had only met for the first time.
Loredana was confused.
“I…”
“You, come in with me!” Cormac had a face like thunder. Was she trying to seduce other man in front of him?
Did she know what shame was?
Loredana quickly followed him.
The man behind her didn’t give up and said, “Ms. Flores, I’ll be waiting for you in front of the company after work today and we’ll have dinner together.”
Cormac stopped his pace and looked back at Loredana.
She was about to answer the man when she saw Cormac glaring at her with angry eyes. His face was as though saying he would strangle her alive if she agreed to have a meal with that man!
Loredana was pleased and she asked tentatively, “Are you mad?”
He did not say anything but stared at her.
He was eyeing her thoughtfully.
Loredana swallowed her saliva and turned around to look at the man, “I’m sorry, I already have an appointment.”
When she turned her head round again, Cormac’s mood became brighter as he was satisfied with
Loredana’s reply.
She thought for a moment and said, “Is your hand okay? Do you want to visit the hospital?”
Loredana felt it must had hurt a lot to hold a knife with bare hand.
Cormac did not answer her. He stepped into the elevator and Loredana followed him.
She took the initiative to press the floor button and stood on one side of the elevator, staring at her own reflection through the metal surface. She blankly stared into space for a short while and said, “When
Ms. White arrives at work, ask her to get your wound bandaged.”
No matter what was the reason, he was injured because of her. Hence, she should be caring towards him.
Cormac glanced at her from the wall as he couldn’t sense her emotions and said calmly, “She went on a business trip to A Country.”
