What happens as a result of Lennie's taking care of himself? How does Lennie respond? Why?

Are you referring to Lennie deffending himself against Curley?

Yes

The result is he is scared thatt his American dream (tending the rabbits) is not going to happen and Curley is now scared of him and Curleys wife is suspisicous and is trying to once take advantage of pennies innocence to find out what truely happened to curleys hand

hope this help x
