Chapter 202 Listen To Me
Taking advantage of the deserted mansion, Emrys made his way to the bedroom, where he successfully located a safe.
He pried open it and took away the things inside.
The following day, Huxley was suddenly taken away for investigation by the relevant authorities. It was said that someone had found his secret financial records, which detailed all his monetary transactions over the past few years. Some high–ranking members within the organization were also implicated.
A sense of shock struck Huxley’s heart. He had roughly guessed what had happened.
I really shouldn’t have spent the night at my secretary’s house last night. I had no idea that my safe was pried open.
At the Youngblood residence, Richard and Lydia were in the midst of their lunch when they were startled by the sudden ring of the doorbell. Upon opening the door, they were surprised to find Myles standing there.
Lydia greeted warmly, “Myles, it’s you. Come in. We’re just having lunch. Would you like to join us?”
“Thank you, Mrs. Youngblood. I have already eaten.”
Myles entered, placing the fruit wine he had brought on the coffee table. He looked around the room, and with a puzzled expression, he asked, “Mrs. Youngblood, isn’t Delia here?”
He had come this time specifically to build a connection with Cordelia.
In the pursuit of a girl, a man must exhibit tenacity and unwavering determination, persistently chasing after her. He thought there might come a time when Cordelia would be moved by his sincerity.
Of course, Lydia understood what he was up to, and her expression instantly became somewhat unnatural.
Richard chuckled awkwardly as he explained, “Well, you see… Cordelia has moved back to Jadeborough, but she will still visit us here frequently.”
He didn’t mention that the number of times they had visited Jadeborough was even more frequent than Cordelia’s visits here.
Myles furrowed his brows and asked, “Is he still hanging out with Lund?”
His tone was clearly tinged with annoyance.
Richard was about to speak, but then he stopped. The couple exchanged a glance, and in the end, they decided to let Lydia explain the situation.
“Myles, you should understand Cordelia’s feelings. She only has eyes for Emrys, and we can’t persuade her otherwise. So, we decided not to interfere in the matters of these young people.”
This was Lydia’s tactful explanation.

However, Myles was also a clever man. He instantly understood the implication in Lydia’s words. She was acknowledging the relationship between Emrys and Cordelia.
Damn it, are you messing with me?
It was you who said you’d introduce Cordelia to me, and now it’s also you who says you won’t interfere. Are you toying with me?
Myles‘ face turned extremely unpleasant,
He had already fallen for Cordelia. To be precise, any normal man who saw a stunning beauty like Cordelia would find it hard to control himself.
To put it poetically, it was love at first sight. To put it bluntly, it was lust at first sight.
How could Myles possibly be content with giving up at this point?
Myles managed to suppress the rage boiling within him. Rising to his feet, he said, “Mr. and Mrs. Youngblood, please enjoy your meal. I’ll be leaving first.”
After saying that, he left the Youngblood residence.
Richard sighed and said, “Look at this. It’s all your doing. If you hadn’t suggested introducing Cordelia to Myles back then, would we have ended up in such an unpleasant situation?”
“Oh, so now you’re blaming me? Didn’t you also with my approach back then?”
agree
“We can only blame ourselves for misjudging. Who could have imagined that Emrys would be so outstanding!”
Emrys received the news that his fourth sister, Ninette, would be returning in a few days.
For a long time, Emrys had admired Ninette/ He was certain that when they eventually met, he would have to exchange a few moves with her.
Cordelia suggested, “Ninette is returning specifically to see you. I presume she won’t be able to stay for long, so you should pick her up from the airport when the time comes!”
“No problem,” Emrys agreed, nodding.
“Later, I’ll take you to the mall to buy some decent clothes.”
“There’s no need for that. I think I have enough clothes to wear now…”
