Chapter 339 Don’t Scare My Wife
Upon learning of Fanny's success, Dylan was filled with joy and eager to head
straight to their room. However, he managed to compose himself just in time.
When Fanny inquired about Angela, he found himself at a loss for words.
Just as he was about to speak, Fanny whispered, “I need to go out. We'll talk
later.”
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 relationship with me? One that leads to engagement.”
Fanny was caught off guard by Yaxley's direct mention of engagement and
immediate plans.
“If you're not interested, I can offer you other forms of compensation...” 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 night later, However, the present
situation demanded his attention.
Fanny bit her lip and asked, “Is it... acceptable?”
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.”

Chapter 39 Don't
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 place for herself
in Northland.
With divergent thoughts in their minds, the two calmly exited the hotel.
Meanwhile, Angela and Jonathan had just finished breakfast when an
unexpected visitor arrived.
Yarrison smiled at Angela and inquired, “Jon, is this your wife, Angela? Hello,
Angela.”
The man beside Yarrison also addressed Angela as “Angela.”
Angela 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.
Angela tugged at Jonathan's sleeve from behind and nodded at him.
“Hello, I'm Angela...” She leaned forward to introduce herself.
Yarrison promptly added, “Hello, Angela. I'm Yarrison Holland, and this is
Spencer Lorenzo. We are Jon's friends...”
He introduced the man beside him as well. Spencer simply smiled and nodded,
greeting Angela, “Hello, Angela.”

“Hello, everyone,” Angela responded with surprise, stealing a glance at Jonathan.
Jonathan suggested, “Let's come 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 Northland.”
Jonathan held Angela's hand and casually replied to Yarrison, “Indeed, it is
different.”
The house bore a striking resemblance to Springgate Estates, adorned entirely in
the distinctive style of Riverdon, which was naturally different from that of
Northland.
Once they were all seated. Angela 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 Angela 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. According 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 surveillance footage was not how it happened.
When those two took Angela 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 for last night.”
Had Yarrison not promptly accessed the surveillance and provided him with the
room. number, he shuddered to think of the potential consequences from the
previous night.
“By the way, is Angela alright? I reviewed the surveillance footage, and she
unexpectedly passed out, which is quite concerning,” Yarrison inquired.
Jonathan shook his head. “Angela is fine. The doctor didn't find anything wrong
with her.”

Worried about Angela's health, Jonathan had the doctor check her multiple times
last 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 Angela from now on.”
“I will.” Jonathan nodded.
The events of last 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.

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 explain.
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.
