Chapter 154: Chapter 154: Let’s See Who Has the Thicker Skin
“President Lewis, save , this woman is trying to kill .”
Silently standing as if he were just air, Thomas Hughes stepped forward and yanked the woman falling towards his master away.
Naomi Woods looked at the impartial man in shock, furious yet helpless, as there was nothing she could do with the people by Waylon Lewis’s side.
Waylon Lewis’s gaze swept toward her coldly.
“You should be thankful she hit you, otherwise you wouldn’t even have a chance to talk right now,” his frigid voice seed to freeze everything, making everyone present shiver with fear.
Naomi Woods stared at the man, dumbfounded, unable to comprehend his aning.
“President Lewis, I…”,
Waylon Lewis had no intention of paying her any more attention. Hope Williams had trouble using her chopsticks due to an injury, so Waylon Lewis watched attentively which dishes she eyed and served her food.
Hope ate leisurely, unconcerned about the people around them.
“Thomas, get her out.”
What?
Naomi Woods looked at Waylon Lewis with panic, unwilling to admit it, but she knew she was the one he ant to kick out.
What did she do wrong? Why should she be thrown out?
Naomi Woods was unwilling to miss such a great opportunity.
“President Lewis, did I say sothing wrong? I spoke the truth, if you don’t believe , you can check the surveillance,” Naomi Woods said quickly, leaning towards Waylon Lewis.
Waylon Lewis scowled with disgust, his aura chillingly spreading around, “Stay away from !”
Naomi was so frightened that she froze in place, unable to move.
Thomas imdiately stepped forward and pulled the unwelco woman away, “Miss, please show so dignity.”
“President Lewis, I…”
Mia Fuller quickly took this opportunity to grab Naomi Woods’s hand, helplessly saying, “Stop it, Naomi, I already said I won’t pursue this matter. If there really is sothing between Sister Hope and Alexander, I…I don’t want to manage it anymore. Just let them be.”
Hope continued to eat the food in her bowl unhurriedly, responding with a slow smile, utterly unconcerned.
The aningful explanation offered by Mia Fuller next to her beca almost like a joke.
The two were as if desperately wanting everyone to know how loving they were.
It was like dog food spilled all over the place.
Alexander Knox’s gaze deepened, landing on Mia Fuller’s embarrassed face, he bit down on his back teeth and stepped forward to grab Mia’s hand, “When will this end?”
“Thomas!”
Thomas imdiately stepped forward, his towering figure blocking the two won, “Ladies, please, do not make too much of a scene, it’s not good for yourselves.”
Both won’s faces turned from green to purple, looking awful.
“Brother Waylon…”
“Get out,” Waylon Lewis said with impatience and anger.
Mia Fuller clenched her teeth and could only leave with a scowl.
She couldn’t believe how much Waylon Lewis trusted Hope Williams. She had thought this would be an opportunity to hit Hope hard but ended up embarrassing herself.
Especially the fool beside her, absolutely idiotic.
Seeing that the ruckus was finally over, Alexander Knox sighed deeply, looked at Hope across the table and gently said, “I’m sorry, I didn’t expect this to happen.”
Hope tugged at her lips lightly, clearly unconcerned, “You needn’t apologize. She was targeting anyway.”
Alexander Knox’s gaze paused slightly, tangled as he looked at Hope, then was distracted by a glimr of cold light coming from beside her.
The gazes of the two n t, and a wave of invisible gunpowder spread instantly.
“President Lewis, I don’t believe I invited you.”
“I’ll pay you,” Waylon Lewis said scanning him.
Although Waylon Lewis trusted Hope, that didn’t an he was without resentnt towards another man touching her.
Alexander Knox drew in his lip, “Thick-skinned.”
“Right, not as thick as yours.”
Hope drew in her lip, wondering if the two n needed to step aside first to see whose face was thicker.
Since Waylon Lewis was here, and the two of them behaved so affectionately, Alexander Knox couldn’t stand to stay any longer and left with a darkened face.
Hope put down her chopsticks and sighed lightly.
“Tsk, you two are also suffocating people,” Aria Richardson standing beside them sowhat couldn’t bear to watch.
Waylon Lewis glanced briefly, still harboring a significant grudge about that incident, Waylon Lewis held grudges!
“Why haven’t you left?” Waylon Lewis peeled a shrimp and put it in Hope’s bowl, coldly asking Aria.
“Hey, President Lewis, it’s not nice to burn bridges after crossing them. I just unhesitatingly ca forward to help you, you can’t just kick people out, right, Hope?” Aria raised an eyebrow, giving Hope a look.
Hope smiled helplessly nodding, “That’s right.”
“There’s so much food left, might as well have so,” Aria said, making herself comfortable sitting opposite Hope.
Hope, “Slow down, don’t choke.”
Waylon Lewis, “…”
After dinner, Hope looked at Waylon Lewis and asked, “Are you going back to the office? If so, I’ll head ho first.”
“There’s still so work, I need to stop by the office.”
Hope nodded, “Then I’ll head ho first, don’t stay out too late.”
“Okay, I’ll have Thomas take you ho.”
Hope shook her head, “No need, Aria is here, I’ll go back with her.”
Waylon Lewis’s gaze swept coldly over the well-fed Aria Richardson.
Aria was still chewing on a atball, spooked by Waylon Lewis’s icy scrutiny, almost swallowing the whole thing.
“Uh… I can go back with Hope, don’t worry, President Lewis, I’ll make sure she gets ho safe.”
Waylon Lewis humd a response, which counted as an agreent.
Waylon Lewis left first, Aria arm in arm with Hope slowly walked out of the restaurant, “Your family’s President Lewis seems very busy. But it’s nice he still ca over to dine with you. What’s going on with you and President Knox? It’s obvious even to , he seems to have more than average interest in you.”
Hope sighed helplessly, “His grandmother is my patient. After Grandma Knox recovered, this President Knox got fixated on inviting to dinner.”
“That’s it?” Aria had just supplented a whole soap opera scenario in her mind.
“What else did you think?” Hope asked with a smile.
