Chapter 523 Apologize to Her
Chapter 523 Apologize to Her
After some time, Ally gave a faint smile. "It’s said that Hardy is the president of the Fowler Group now.
He excels at being a kept man."
"What did you just say?"
Irritated, Lindsey widened her eyes and raised her hand, wanting to give Ally a slap across the face.
But her hand froze in the air.
It turned out Ally, who was smiling sweetly and amiably, gripped Lindsey’s wrist.
"You’re mad that I’m right, aren’t you? But I’m not the same person I was two years ago! Besides, my
mother gave me 20% of the shares of the Fowler Group. No matter which post Hardy holds, he works
for me. Aren’t you afraid that he’ll lose his job if you hit me?"
As expected, Lindsey was stunned.
How could she have forgotten that this woman held 20% of the shares of the Fowler Group? If it
weren’t for this, she wouldn’t have allowed Hardy to be with her back then!
Two years had passed, and Ally had a sharp tongue still!
Zack, who was not far away from them, saw something was going on here and came over, asking,
"What’s going on?"
Suddenly, Lindsey put on an aggrieved look and started to grumble in an injured tone, "Well, Zack!
What’s wrong with Ally? I just came to say hi, but she wanted to hit me all of a sudden!"
Zack frowned. Aware of what had happened between Hardy and Ally, he thought that Ally overreacted
because she was upset.
Therefore, he spoke harshly, "Ally, show some respect! How can you hit Mrs. Lawrence?"
Seeing Zack defending her, Lindsey began to wail to embarrass Ally.
Zack got annoyed. Why was his daughter such a troublemaker?
"Ally, apologize to Lindsey!"
Apologize to her? No way!
Ally couldn’t help giving a sneer. Judging from the way she gripped Lindsey’s wrist, it really looked as if
she was going to hit her.
But why wouldn’t her father ask her about it? Why would he rather trust an outsider than his daughter?
Ally compressed her lips into a thin line. Two years ago when she was involved in that scandal, her dad
also blamed her for her promiscuous lifestyle indiscriminately. Now it still sent a chill to her heart when
she thought of it.
"What if I don’t?"
"You!"
Lindsey snorted. "So this is how the Fowlers teach their daughters? She's allowed to make a mistake
and then get away with it without making an apology! Ha! For someone who climbed into a men’s bed
at 18, no wonder she’d do something like this! Fortunately, Angie isn’t like her. Or I wouldn’t have had
my son marrying her."
Zack turned livid upon hearing those mean words coming from Lindsey’s lips, growling, "Ally, you must
apologize to her NOW!"
Ally got agitated too and raised her voice. "I didn’t hit her!"
"Hey, how dare you deny it! We all saw it, and you still want to deny it? You are meaner than you look,
brat!"
"Exactly! You raised a hand to Lindsey. If we hadn’t stopped you, your hand would have landed on her Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
face."
"She’s an elder. How can you treat her like this? That’s so rude."
Lindsey’s friends chimed in with her, twisting the fact. Zack, trembling with anger, raised his hand
abruptly and slapped Ally’s face hard.
Ally’s head was thrown sideways by the slap. Seeing Zack take an action, the people around lowered
their voices and sat back with expectant faces.
At this point, Angie noticed something went wrong and trotted over from the stage.
"What’s going on?"
Someone told her what just happened in a low voice immediately.
Hearing that, Angie widened her eyes and grumbled in an aggrieved tone, "Ally, how could you have
done that? Even if you don’t want Hardy to marry me, you can’t raise a hand to Mrs. Lawrence!"
Ally was speechless. Perhaps all the shameless people in the world had gathered in this room to have
a party today.
She wanted to defend herself. "I didn’t…"
"Enough!"
Hardy blurted out, frowning, "Why did you invite her?"
He paused for a moment and taunted, "Ally, I told you two years ago that the woman I love was Angie.
Why do you keep haunting us? Is it because you can find no other man in this world other than me?
Besides, it was you who cheated on me with some other man two years ago, so stop acting like a good
woman!"
Ally was stupefied, staring at Hardy in disbelief.
She never expected him to say something like this.
Even when the scandal happened two years ago, Hardy didn’t say anything so mean to hurt her
feelings when he broke up with her.
But now…
Ally’s mind went blank, her nose twitching, her eyes misting over.
At this moment, a low and attractive voice rang out.
"Who says she can find no other man?"
At the entrance of the hall, the crowd split into halves voluntarily to make way for a tall and young man
escorted by a dozen men in suits and sunglasses.
Someone in the crowd exclaimed, "Gosh, who’s that? He’s so handsome!"
Ally looked up, only to see a tall and strong man at the head of the crowd. He had strong features,
deep eyes, and pursed lips. Once he appeared, everyone present was overwhelmed by his powerful
aura. There was no visible logo on his suit, but one could tell it must be expensive at the sight of the six
sapphire cuff-links on his sleeves.
Who was that man?
The eyes of the single ladies on the scene began to sparkle. They came to the wedding to socialize in
the first place. Now that such a handsome man showed up, they couldn’t hold themselves back
anymore.
But the next second, everyone was surprised.
He walked up to Ally, and his tense face suddenly relaxed. His arm was draped around her shoulders
as he mumbled, "I’m supposed to be your date today, why did you come without me?"
Ally was dumbfounded, her mind wandering.
What did he mean by that?
Did she know him?
Besides, who were all these people? Were they filming a TV series?
Before Ally could say anything, a slender and fair finger pressed itself against her lips.
The man’s face blossomed into a tender and doting smile. "Alright. I know you were worried that I’d be
too busy, but after all, we’re a couple. I have to meet your family sooner or later, right?"
Ally gave a wry smile because what the man said was beyond her.
When had she got a husband? And how come she knew nothing of it?
"Sir, I…"
Before she could finish her sentence, Ally felt dizzy and collapsed. Luckily, the man reacted promptly
and slipped his arm around her waist, preventing her from falling to the ground.
What was going on?
Why was her head spinning?
Ally knew how much she could drink, and one glass of wine or two was no problem to her at all.
Before she could figure it out, the man’s cold voice came from over her head.
"Who just said my wife hit someone?"
