Chapter 749


    Angeline tilted her head slightly and said with a volume that only she and Cole could hear, "This is


    my evil stepmother. Can you help me tone down her arrogance?"


    Cole smiled like a spring breeze. "d to be of service."


    Anne scrutinized Cole for a while, and there was a trace of doubt in her eyes. "Hey, Missy, who is


    this gentleman?"


    Angeline looked at Cole, her voice soft. "It''s better if you say it."


    This was because Angeline believed that Cole''s arrogant mouth could set the vain Anne back.

    Sure enough, Cole walked to Anne in a gentlemanly manner and introduced himself, "Hello, my


    name is Cole Yorks. I''m Angelina''s new boyfriend. And you are?"


    Anne''s face was a little unsightly. Due to her identity, n o matter how impressive she was on the


    outside, she could never lift her head in this house.


    She was a disgraceful mistress.


    "Anne Connors," she omitted her identity and simply stated her name.


    Cole’s eyes kindled with joy. Although it clearly looked like a harmless smile, Anne felt that this


    man’s smile


    hid poison.


    "Then, what title should I call you by?" Cole asked brazenly.


    Anne''s face began to flush, and her ears had also started to heat up inexplicably. She was really


    embarrassed to mention her status as the mistress.


    Angeline hugged her shoulders and looked at an embarrassed Anne gloatingly.


    The atmosphere was a little awkward. Cole smacked his lips and muttered, "I think your identity is


    something shameful!" 1


    Lady Severe felt that her daughter''s mischief was a bit excessive, so she began to speak to save


    Anne from embarrassment, "Mr. Yorks, this is Angeline''s father''s current wife."


    Cole nodded with an expression of sudden realization. "So you''re Angeline''s stepmother?"


    After Lady Severe had saved her from embarrassment, Anne then resumed her pompous attitude.


    She had always been a vain woman who loved topete. Now that Angeline was dating a


    handsome guy, she was tickling with jealousy. She just hoped that this man was an impressive-


    looking but useless idiot.


    "May I know where you work?" She started to interrogate meticulously.


    Cole said indifferently, "I’m afraid you''ve never heard o f thepany I work for, so it’s better if I


    don''t say it."


    Anne pondered secretly. She had heard of thepanies that were slightly famous in cities around


    Swallow City. If she did not know it, it must not be famous.


    Looking at Cole again, she felt that that elegance and nobility were nothing more than perks from


    his looks.


    Anne then started to be cynical. "The man that the missy used to like is the richest, most capable,


    and best-looking man in the entire Imperial Capital. As soon as she was dumped by him, she


    rushed to find another man."


    She gave Cole a disdainful look and said with contempt, "Other than good looks, this man has no


    background whatsoever. Only a second-hand good like the missy is willing to ept him. Anyway,


    my Sera wouldn''t look for such an unknown man."


    A cold air lingered in Cole’s dark pupils as he grunted coldly. He then turned, walked toward Lady


    Severe, and took out a card from his arms before handing it to her respectfully.


    "Mom, this is my betrothal gift to the Severe family. It has a stored value of 100 billion dors. Be


    careful, and I hope you’ll like it."


    Lady Severe was stunned.


    Anne yelled in shock, "100 billion dors?"


    Cole said, "It''s just 100 billion, what''s so surprising


    about it? You''re making a fuss over nothing.”


    There were only a handful of families with more than 100 billion in property in the entire Imperial


    Capital. It was likely that even the Titus family of Swallow City did not have this strength.
