Chapter 513
Arabella was a bit taken aback and asked, “What brings you here?”
If I hadn’t shown up, I wouldn’t have known someone was messing with you.” Romeo gently patted her head, then glared at Mr. Panter, “Mr Panter, are you going to discipline your kid, or should I do the honors?”
At those words, Mr. Panter nearly lost his legs from fear and apologized profusely, “This is just a minor issue; no need to bother Mr. McMillian
Seeing the affectionate interaction between Romeo and Arabella, it was clear as day they were a couple.
Knowing his son messed up big time, Mr. Panter was filled with regret. But all he could do was wipe the sweat from his forehead and face his good–for–nothing son.
“Dad,”
Zachary didn’t even finish his sentence when his father slapped him hard across the face,
You ungrateful brat! How dare you offend Mr. McMillian’s friend!”
Zachary had been pampered since childhood and couldn’t stand the sudden slap. He almost fell to the ground.
‘Zachary.”
Yolanda was scared out of her wits, not expecting Mr. Panter to smack his own son so hard.
Hearing her voice, Mr. Panter turned his attention to her, a flash of anger in his eyes, “We’ll deal with your issue later!”
Yolanda was scared stiff, feeling all eyes on her. Her face turned extremely red with embarrassment.
The slap had split Zachary’s lip, drawing blood.
But Mr. Panter wasn’t done with him, and he slapped him repeatedly, “You ignorant fool! I’m going to take this opportunity to teach you a lesson! Remember this, steer clear of Mr. McMillian’s friends! If you dare offend them again, I’ll break your hands!”
Zachary was dizzy from the blows, and he never imagined the handsome man was Arabella’s boyfriend. He had thought Arabella was cold to him because he pursued her and then vanished, so she was angry.
He thought she held a grudge because he chose Yolanda, decided to get engaged to her, and thus hurt her.
Because she couldn’t have him, she was stirring up trouble;
She wasn’t talking to him because Yolanda was around;
He never thought Arabella simply didn’t give a damn about him!
Arabella’s boyfriend was the world’s richest man, standing at the pinnacle of society, young, handsome, and immensely wealthy.
How could Arabella possibly fancy him?
Zachary laughed at himself. No wonder Arabella always looked at him with disdain and indifference.
Turned out Arabella truly looked down on him, not even worth a glance. She probably thought he was crazy!
And he only realized it now, what a fool!
Such a fool!
“Got that?” Mr. Panter, tired from hitting, gave him another hard kick.
Zachary curled up on the floor, kicked by his father. He was in so much pain he was about to pass out.
He had never been so humiliated in his life! Especially in front of so many important people!
“Mr. Panter, you’re not as young as you used to be. You should take it easy.”
At this point, Erlinda suggested out of kindness.
Mr. Panter didn’t expect Erlinda to speak up for him, felt his tough love approach was effective, and quickly expressed his gratitude, “Thanks for your concern, Ms. Archer, about this matter,”
“Perhaps you could use some tools to save some energy. After all, you’ll need to further educate him when you get back, I happen to have some at home! Just wait a moment. I’ll have someone bring it for you.” Erlinda had someone fetch a bat.
Mr. Panter didn’t expect Erlinda to add fuel to the fire instead of helping, his face immediately turned sour.
“Lucky you’re here to discipline him today, or else my people, being young and strong, might have accidentally hurt your son, then the Panter family’s lineage would, you know.”
Erlinda’s intention was clear.
