Chapter 993: Chapter 993: The Change of Enna Clark
Baron Lawrenceās mind flashed rapidly with the image of one person, and as he sharply turned his head indeed, he saw that foolish woman; one hand caught the whip, shielding him.
The family discipline whip was studded with fine barbs, which she grasped in one hand. The remainder scraped across her arm, leaving a circle of crimson marks on her fair skin.
It was as if she had been kissed by fire, exceptionally startling to behold!
Baron Lawrenceās eyes suddenly hardened, and through gritted teeth, he said, āEnna Clark, didnāt I tell you to wait for me outside?ā
āI waited outside, but you didnāt come out, so I came in.ā
Enna Clarkās arm was burning with pain, but it was nothing compared to the ache in her heart! She could hardly believe that the man who had walked in fine just a short while ago had now turned into this.
The back of his shirt was already split, with whip marks clearly visible, skin torn and flesh laid bare!
She was immensely grateful that she had not felt at ease and had insisted on barging in.
If he had to endure another lash, she shuddered to think what he might become.
Fiery indignation rose in Enna Clarkās clear eyes for the first time as she glared at the old man seated on the sofaāafter all, Baron Lawrence was his grandson; even if his grandson had committed a grave mistake, he should be given proper guidance, not this cold-blooded punishment.
To subject oneās own kin to such harsh treatment, didnāt it pain his own heart?
Despite the burning pain in her hand, Enna Clark faced Old Master Lawrence with the composure of a guest visiting the house, untouched by the atmosphere around. She spoke calmly and collectedly, āGrandpa, long time no see. I didnāt inform you before coming to visit. Sorry for the intrusion.ā
Her demeanor was neither humble nor overbearing, and her tone was composed.
Even this bearing alone was worlds apart from a year ago.
It clearly showed how much she had progressed.
Enna Clark took out a palm-sized box from somewhere, released her grip on the whip, walked up to Old Master Lawrence, and handed over the small box, āI rushed over and didnāt prepare any gift for you. This is a small token of my sentiment, I hope you like it.ā
She displayed politeness, etiquette, and attitude with great cultivation.
Old Master Lawrence raised his eyebrows slightly but did not take it, his indifference as if he hadnāt seen it at all, clearly intending to leave Enna Clark embarrassed!
Baron Lawrence frowned, about to step in and save Enna from the awkward situation.
Unexpectedly, Enna Clark was even more composed than Old Master Lawrence, as if she had anticipated such a situation. Without the slightest embarrassment of being snubbed, she placed the gift on the coffee table. With serene and collected eyes, she said, āGrandpa, Baron Lawrence is injured; Iāll take him out to apply some medicine first.ā
She didnāt beat around the bush but spoke directly to Old Master Lawrence.
Though she did not seem dominant, her tone and words were not asking for permission.
They were more like informing!
After Enna Clark spoke, she didnāt wait for Old Master Lawrenceās reaction; instead, she turned to face the man, whose complexion was pale. Frowning slightly, she took his arm and placed it over her shoulders, āBaron Lawrence, letās go.ā
In doing all this, her actions were smooth and showed not a hint of timidity.
From beginning to end, she stood in front of him, as if protecting him!
Baron Lawrence had never been protected by anyone, and a novel feeling welled up in his heart. Under this strange sensation, he actually didnāt resist and followed her steps, walking outā¦
