Chapter 339 Don’t Scare My Wife


    Upon learning of Fanny’s sess, Dn was filled with joy and eager to head straight to their room.


    However, he managed topose himself just in time.


    When Fanny inquired about Ang, he found himself at a loss for words.


    Just as he was about to speak, Fanny whispered, “I need to go out. We’ll talkter.”


    In the hotel room’s bathroom, Fanny ended the call. She swiftly changed her clothes and took a deep


    breath at the door before going out.


    “You…” Yaxley seemed bewildered despite their both being dressed neatly now.


    Fanny teared up, gazing timidly at Yaxley as she said, “I’m going home. You should leave too. About


    last night…”


    Before she could finish, Yaxley cut her off and abruptly asked, “Do you want to be in a rtionship with


    me? One that leads to engagement.”


    Fanny was caught off guard by Yaxley’s direct mention of engagement and immediate ns.


    “If you’re not interested, I can offer you other forms ofpensation…” Yaxley said helplessly as he


    rubbed his temples.


    He had inspected the room while Fanny was preparing, realizing that the room belonged to her, and he


    was the intruder.


    He hadn’t consumed much alcohol the previous night, but his memory seemed fragmented. He recalled


    leaving the hotel with Ava and returning to the banquet hall, but nothing beyond. that.


    He could delve into the events of the previous nightter, However, the present situation demanded his


    attention.


    Fanny bit her lip and asked, “Is it… eptable?”


    Fearing a hasty response from Yaxley, she couldn’t help but inquire, “Regarding the engagement, do


    your family approve?”


    Though Fanny spoke softly, Yaxley heard her clearly.


    He furrowed his brow. Then, he pondered for a moment before replying, “It’s fine. You needn’t worry


    about them.”

    Fanny felt a sense of relief and nodded slightly as she softly responded, “Alright then.”


    “Allow me to formally introduce myself. I am Yaxley Collier,” Yaxley suddenly started to introduce


    himself.


    Fanny replied, “I’m Fanny Kins.”


    Upon hearing her name, Yaxley felt a sense of familiarity but refrained from asking, simply nodding and


    inquiring. “Shall I escort you home?”


    The atmosphere between them was awkward, yet Fanny felt a sense of ease after nodding.


    Despite Yaxley’s high status and affluent background, she couldn’t bring herself to develop feelings for


    him. Fortunately, Yaxley didn’t seem to harbor any dislike toward her either.


    As long as she remained by Yaxley’s side, she could carve out a ce for herself in Nortnd.


    With divergent thoughts in their minds, the two calmly exited the hotel.


    Meanwhile, Ang and Jonathan had just finished breakfast when an unexpected visitor arrived.


    Yarrison smiled at Ang and inquired, “Jon, is this your wife, Ang? Hello, Ang.”


    The man beside Yarrison also addressed Ang as “Ang.”


    Ang was taken aback. It was the first time she had been referred to as such by Jonathan’s friend.


    She felt slightly uneasy.

    Moreover, their scrutinizing gazes were a bit too conspicuous.


    “Don’t startle her,” Jonathan interjected, standing between them and issuing a stern warning.


    “Huh? We don’t look frightening, so why would we scare her? Jon, please step aside and let me


    introduce myself to your wife,” Yarrison insisted with a friendly demeanor.


    Ang tugged at Jonathan’s sleeve from behind and nodded at him.


    “Hello, I’m Ang…” She leaned forward to introduce herself.


    Yarrison promptly added, “Hello, Ang. I’m Yarrison Hond, and this is Spencer Lorenzo. We are


    Jon’s friends…”


    He introduced the man beside him as well. Spencer simply smiled and nodded, greeting Ang, “Hello,


    Ang.”

    “Hello, everyone,” Ang responded with surprise, stealing a nce at Jonathan.


    Jonathan suggested, “Let’se inside.”


    Upon entering the room, Yarrison’s gaze wandered curiously. “You never gave me the chance. to see


    this house during the decorating process. Now that I’m finally taking it in, it has a distinct style that


    differs from those in Nortnd.”


    Jonathan held Ang’s hand and casually replied to Yarrison, “Indeed, it is different.”


    The house bore a striking resemnce to Springgate Estates, adorned entirely in the distinctive style of


    Riverdon, which was naturally different from that of Nortnd.


    Once they were all seated. Ang mentioned that she would go to the kitchen to prepare drinks and


    went straight in.


    Recognizing that Jonathan’s friends had likely sought him out for an important discussion, she decided


    not to linger and kept from being there any longer.


    Yarrison waited until Ang left before bringing up the events of the previous night.


    “I have asked them, but they remained tight–lipped. They adamantly denied acting on anyone’s orders.


    ording to them, they noticed the guest sleeping on the couch and were concerned about the guest


    catching a cold. So, they took the guest to the banquet–prepared. guest room,” Yarrison reported,


    rolling his eyes in disbelief.


    Although he had extracted this information during the interrogation, he didn’t believe a word of it.


    Under normal circumstances, they would have checked before taking the guest to the room. What he


    saw on the surveince footage was not how it happened.


    When those two took Ang to the room, they were extremely cautious, as if they were afraid of


    waking her up, sneaking around the whole time.


    Jonathan expressed his gratitude, “Well, thanks to you forst night.”


    Had Yarrison not promptly essed the surveince and provided him with the room. number, he


    shuddered to think of the potential consequences from the previous night.


    “By the way, is Ang alright? I reviewed the surveince footage, and she unexpectedly passed out,


    which is quite concerning,” Yarrison inquired.


    Jonathan shook his head. “Ang is fine. The doctor didn’t find anything wrong with her.”

    Worried about Ang’s health, Jonathan had the doctor check her multiple timesst night, even


    drawing blood for tests.


    However, they would have to wait a few more days for the results.

    Yarrison sighed and said, “In that case, I’m afraid we won’t find out anything. You should be more


    careful with Ang from now on.”


    “I will.” Jonathan nodded.


    The events ofst night had left him shaken. He had warned himself and instructed Oliver.


    They would not give anyone a chance to take advantage of them again.


    Seated beside Yarrison, Spencer observed the room with the same keen interest. Despite being an


    attentive listener to their conversation, he remained silent throughout.


    After discussing the events ofst night, Jonathan looked at Spencer and asked, “Aren’t you busy


    lately? Why did youe with him?”


    “I’m not busy,” Spencer replied,cking enthusiasm and sounding somewhat resigned.


    Yarrison added, “He’s not busy at alltely. He’s rather idle now. We even had a drinking sessionst


    night, but unfortunately, we didn’t know you were in Nortnd.”


    Jonathan raised an eyebrow in surprise and asked, “Did something happen?”


    “My dad kicked me out, and thepany doesn’t need my help either.” Spencer shrugged helplessly.


    The circumstances surrounding Spencer’s family were somewhat intricate, and Jonathan had heard


    about it before. However, he hadn’t anticipated that things would escte to such an


    extent.


    Spencer is currently being expelled from the Lorenzo Family. What could have happened to lead to


    such a significant problem?


    Seeing Jonathan’s concern, Spencer sighed and began to slowly exin.


    Having already been briefed on Spencer’s situation, Yarrison listened for a couple of sentences before


    growing bored and making his way to the kitchen to lend a hand.
