Tina Hernandez pursed her lips tightly.
Despite the damage to her reputation from this incident, Lucas Hutt was unrelenting. He was the one who wronged her first, and if she didn't stand her ground, he would think she feared him.
She replied coldly, "I don't want to suffer in silence either. I was willing to let this go, but since you're not willing to settle this amicably, let's see how it plays out!"
Her reputation had already been tarnished, so what was the harm in adding another scandal to it?
"Both of you, calm down. If this gets out, neither of your reputations will benefit. Why not settle it privately?" Bella Scott intervened when she saw the two not yielding to each other.
"We can't settle it privately!" Lucas Hutt and Tina Hernandez said in unison.
Bella Scott was at her wit's end and looked towards Edward Anderson, "You take care of this."
