Chapter 323: She Was Beaten
When they reached a place where there was no one around, the curve of Nora Northwood’s mouth flattened, and she moved her jaw from side to side.
After smiling for so long, her face was almost frozen.
After taking a moment of peace in the restroom, Nora Northwood slowly made her way out.
The door outside the restroom, closed without her knowing, was suddenly pushed open and a face filled with arrogance appeared in front of her, "Little bitch, it really is you!"
"Jade Lockwood."
Nora Northwood looked puzzled.
Before she could fully react, someone shoved her shoulder hard, causing her to stagger several steps back before she barely managed to steady herself.
"Jade, I told you I didn’t see it wrong." Jade Lockwood’s friend beside her wore an ingratiating smile.
The two of them advanced step by step towards Nora Northwood.
The sound of high heels hitting the marble floor was exceptionally crisp, creating a sense of foreboding.
Another tall woman locked the restroom door from the inside.
Then, she gave Jade Lockwood a look, "No one will come in now."
Jade Lockwood’s expression became increasingly hateful, as if she was looking at a mortal enemy, her eyes practically bulging from her sockets.
Nora Northwood maintained her composure, not showing a hint of fear, "What do you want to do?"
"You bitch, you got me grounded for so long, watch how I teach you a lesson today." With that, Jade Lockwood seemed ready to roll up her sleeves and start the fight.
Seeing the slap almost landing on her face, luckily Nora Northwood reacted quickly and dodged it.
Otherwise, her face would have been marked.
"You’re dodging when I hit you!"
"Why wouldn’t I dodge? This isn’t the Lockwood family. No one treats you like a princess here."
Nora’s inner thoughts: This person must be crazy.
Jade Lockwood lunged at her madly, and soon, the two were tangled in a brawl, neither willing to back down.
To be honest, besides May Lawrence, Nora Northwood had never met a woman so unreasonable and abrasive.
Catching Nora off guard, Jade Lockwood swung another slap, her fingernail scraping harshly across Nora’s jawline.
With such force, one of Jade Lockwood’s acrylic nails fell off completely.
Nora grinned in pain, struggling to control her expression as she touched the scratched area, which had already left a bloody mark.
"You crazy woman."
"You stole my match, causing my Lockwood family to fall into a commercial crisis. A slap is already light punishment for you."
At this time, Jade Lockwood’s friend reminded, "She is, after all, President Sinclair’s woman now, don’t be too harsh."
However, Jade Lockwood completely ignored it, directly roaring, "Shut up, this isn’t your place to speak."
The person resentfully shut her mouth, no longer making a sound.
If it weren’t for Jade Lockwood still being useful, who would tolerate her princess-like temper? Never seen anyone with such a bad temper.
Nora Northwood’s expression turned cold, usually unobtrusive and low-key, yet now faintly exuding an oppressive aura.
"Jade Lockwood, today you hurt me once, you better think carefully about how to explain it to your family. Do you think Jasper Sinclair will let the Lockwood family fall into crisis again!"
Mentioning Jasper Sinclair’s name, Jade Lockwood’s eyes gradually regained clarity.
After all, this man was notoriously ruthless in the business circle...
She clenched her fist, continuing in her earlier tone, "No family, no background, you can only rely on a man to live. Go ahead and tell him, I’ll see what he can do to me."
