Chapter 37

After watching the video, the onlooking people couldn’t help but sigh while glancing at Ashlyn with scathing gazes. At this moment, she couldn’t wait to bury herself inside a hole in shame.

Hugh, who was Ashlyn’s father, stood in the crowd with an exasperated expression. When Ashlyn saw her father, she felt as though she was clutching to a lifeboat. “Dad, please help me! Please!”

However, Hugh was filled with rage as he shook her hand away and turned toward Jonah. “Mr. Griffith, I’m really sorry for this embarrassment. Ashlyn just got back from abroad, so she still doesn’t understand how we do things here. Again, I’m sorry for the embarrassment.”

“Mr. Lawson, do you think we’ll neglect all her actions because of a simple excuse like that?” Alexander slowly walked toward him and said that with a calm tone, but his words instantly caused Ashlyn’s expressions to change drastically.

“Alexander, 1—”She bit her lower lip tightly. Not only did she shoot herself in her foot, she also left a bad impression in Alexander’s mind.

 

She was really regretting her actions, but there was no way for her to turn back time.

However, Alexander ignored her and said to Hugh directly, “Mr. Lawson, our family is very protective of our members. No matter how useless Elise is, she is still a part of the family. Have you ever considered what implications this incident may have on the reputation of the Griffith Family?”

 

Hugh initially wanted to be the peacemaker. After all, the Lawsons and the Griffiths had been friends for many years, so Jonah would consider his reputation and not look into the incident too much. Unexpectedly, Alexander, who was infamous for being difficult to deal with in the industry, suddenly appeared to handle the situation himself. If I offend Alexander today, it’ll definitely affect the Lawson Family’s business in the future.

After weighing drawbacks, he quickly pulled Ashlyn over. “I want you to apologize to Miss Sinclair right now.”

Ashlyn, however, didn’t expect that her own father would give her up. “Dad, what are you doing?!”
