FreeNovelChapter 79 How Formidable
Luca murmured to Harriet, “Miss Harriet, that’s the woman who came up to me and kicked me to the
ground for no reason.” Without even sparing anyone else a look, Harriet stared fixedly at Camila and
strode up to her. “You’re quite savage, huh?” The corners of her lips twitching, Camila patiently
explained, “I’m not savage. I feel just the same way you’re feeling right now. You came over to retaliate
on behalf of your friend just as I retaliated on behalf of my friend. He started the incident.” Snorting,
Harriet demanded fiercely, “So, you’re saying that it was my brother’s fault?” Camila, on the other hand,
remained smiling. “Nothing is ever incidental.”
“Miss Harriet, it’s that woman who hit me first,” Luca whispered into Harriet’s ear.
All at once, Harriet looked at Kate, her gaze so ferocious that it resembled the vicious gaze of a wolf.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtKate’s knees buckled in terror at her look. No wonder this woman can compete with men in the
business world. She’s just so fierce. “He insulted me first. I was incensed, so I slapped him.” Harriet
continued staring at Kate, looking as though she’d raise a hand against her anytime. “So, it was indeed
you who hit him first?” Taking a step forward, Camila shielded Kate behind her. “I wasn’t planning on
taking things too far since we’re all in the same circle and would meet frequently, but it seems to be out
of my control now. “Madam Grant, if someone insulted you, groped you, and even asked you to sleep
with him, would you be able to control yourself from slapping him?”
Harriet narrowed her eyes and looked at Luca suspiciously, instantly scaring him so greatly that his
heart stopped beating for a moment. Gazing at her, he hastily explained, “Miss Harriet, that’s a lie. It
was her who invited me to do a photo shoot for her magazine. I’ve never even heard of that magazine,
so I declined, but she kept harassing me. Frustrated with the harassment, I indeed told her to get lost
and . dressed her down for taking advantage of my popularity, only to have her claim that I’ve insulted
her. She then slapped me right across the face. Miss Harriet, I’m truly innocent to have disaster
befalling me from nowhere.” “Nonsense!” Kate was so livid that her face had turned bright red. At this
moment, she disregarded all modesty and snapped at him, “It was you who said that you’ll only accept
the invitation if Camila and I spend the night with you!” Naturally, Harriet didn’t believe Camila and
Kate’s words. Her face darkened at once, and she thundered, “I don’t care what’s incidental and what’s
deliberate. Since you hit my brother, I won’t just let this slide. Either apologize to my brother, or I’ll have
someone hit you back in return. Your choice!”
Just as her words fell, an extremely soft sneer sounded. “Ah, how formidable, President Grant!” This
exclamation instantly attracted everyone’s attention. That’s right! These two ladies are acquainted with
Silas Nolan, so he’ll probably intervene, no? There’s bound to be an interesting show. Her brows

sitting on the sofa while surrounded on all sides was leaning back against the sofa languidly with his
legs crossed, his hands holding a cell phone that he was tapping nimbly as though playing a game, his
entire person appearing rather willful and arrogant. Harriet’s expression froze for a moment before she
smiled and walked over to Silas. “You’re here as well, President Nolan?” Without even lifting his head,
Silas replied, “From the very beginning.” Chuckling in embarrassment, Harriet said, “I was enraged
over my brother’s incident, so I didn’t notice you. How remiss of me!” As she said that, she took a glass
of wine from the server. “I’m sorry, President Nolan. Here, I’ll drink to you as an apology. Please don’t
take offense at me.”
Silas didn’t raise his head, so he naturally didn’t raise his wine glass either. Instead, he continued
playing the game on his cell phone. All at once, the atmosphere plunged into an awkward silence, and
everyone stared at him in incomprehension.
