Chapter 1709: Chapter 1699: Baron Lawrence Runs Away from Home

Once she finished speaking, it felt like the entire atmosphere turned silent.

In the midst of intense quiet, she lifted her head and looked at the man’s face.

Baron Lawrence’s expression was extremely unpleasant, as if there were lightning flashing in his dark eyes, and his grip on her hand was so strong that it was almost uncontrollable.

Enna Clark grit her teeth, enduring without making a sound, and looked at him quietly.

Although she didn’t speak, her demeanor was clearly one of insisting on her viewpoint.

Watching this made Baron Lawrence want to strangle her!

Just strangle her!

Strangle her, and then he’d shoot himself, releasing everyone from this misery!

His gaze fell on Enna Clark’s fair and slender neck, so delicate that with just a little force, he could break it.

But he couldn’t bear to, not even for a moment.

Baron Lawrence felt an overwhelming oppression and pain in his chest, suddenly releasing his grip on Enna Clark, and fixed his gaze firmly on her face.

Suddenly, he swung a fist towards Enna Clark—

“Miss!” Hayes, beside them, was taken aback and swiftly lunged forward.

However, how could his reaction speed be quicker than a punch?

Enna Clark heard the sound of the wind tearing through the air, and she abruptly closed her eyes.

A ‘bang’ sounded by her ear.

She opened her eyes, only to see Baron’s fist land ten centimeters away from her. It slammed into the wall; no one knew how much force he used. Blood from the back of his hand trickled down the tiles, a startling, shocking red.

More shocking than the injury on his hand was his expression at that moment.

Enna Clark didn’t know how to describe his expression, nor had she managed to say a word.

The domineering man had already withdrawn his injured left hand, and the darkness in his hawk-like eyes made Enna feel like she had committed a grave sin against the heavens.

“Enna Clark, you trust him but not me?”

Why did she close her eyes just now, did she think he would hit her?

She saw he lost control and assumed he would hit her?

They had been together for so long, and did she still not know how much he cared for her? Even if he lost control, he would never actually hit her!

She is more important than his life itself!

He wished he could cradle her in his hands, wished he could pluck all the stars from the sky for her, how could he possibly harm her even a little?

But Enna Clark did not trust him.

Just thinking about her frightened expression and closed eyes from earlier made Baron Lawrence feel as if his heart was brutally stabbed, dripping with blood.

More painful than the injury on his hand was the dull agony in his heart.

That dull ache was driving him nearly insane.

He feared if he stayed any longer, he would truly lose control and be left with not a shred of sanity.

He clenched his fist, pretending not to notice his hand was bleeding, and after saying those words, he gave Enna Clark a deep glance and turned to leave.

Enna Clark realized he misunderstood, and called out to him from behind, “Baron Lawrence!”

However, the man in haste appeared to have no intention of stopping, striding away with his long legs, disappearing in the blink of an eye down the hospital corridor.

If not for the lingering scent of sandalwood from his presence, it would be as if he had never been there, as if the recent events were all just an illusion of Enna’s!

Baron Lawrence really left.

He walked away on his own!

Enna Clark suddenly felt an overwhelming helplessness.

She slowly crouched down along the wall—

Hayes had witnessed their argument from start to finish and hadn’t expected things to turn out this way. Seeing Enna Clark’s reaction, he walked over with concern, “Miss, are you alright?”
