CHAPTER 75: CHAPTER 75: SO HIS BROTHER LIKES THIS TYPE

Evelyn dared not look at Godfery Shaw anymore, and quickly ran downstairs.

The appearance of the perfect couple seen by outsiders is all fake; in reality, it’s just a transaction. Her family has taken so much benefit from Young Master Shaw; if this engagement is messed up, her dad will definitely kill her.

Yet, Evelyn’s mind suddenly thought of that day, when that Second Young Madam went so casually to the second floor.

She thought of the people from Imperial Garden anxiously trying to send her away.

She thought of Hailey Smith saying that the Second Young Madam had a bad temper, advising her not to provoke her.

Clearly, they’ve already divorced and she’s been driven out of the Imperial Garden, why is she so special?

She couldn’t provoke Godfery Shaw, but couldn’t she provoke an abandoned woman?

What if she insists on provoking her!

After Evelyn went downstairs, Godfery Shaw entered the room previously occupied by Amelia Wright.

Since the day Amelia left, the master bedroom in the Imperial Garden has been left vacant, yet everything in the room remains as is, with regular cleanings.

Only now, there are two additional paintings in the room.

They are the two paintings Amelia had displayed at Ink Manor.

Godfery Shaw looked at the paintings, his gaze soft and filled with longing.

For now, he couldn’t openly accompany her nor openly protect her.

When he noticed the ink stains conspicuously smeared on the scrolls, his eyes turned colder and sharper.

Inside Ink Manor.

Mia Parker was on edge.

Rose Taylor had been waiting for someone to return the paintings.

Yet everything remained calm, with no one coming to cause trouble; Rose Taylor was full of confusion, it shouldn’t be like this with such obvious ink stains.

She began quietly inquiring about who exactly bought Amelia’s paintings.

Little did she know that everything she did had already entered Godfery Shaw’s sight.

...

Now, all of Riverwood City knew that Amelia Wright had been driven out of the Imperial Garden.

They also knew that Young Master Shaw was engaged to the daughter of the Dawson family.

Emma Lewis waited for two days, and there was no change in the news from the Shaw family, and Amelia refused to say anything, so she finally couldn’t hold back anymore.

Unable to find Godfery Shaw, Emma decided to first find Basil Smith.

Anyway, as Godfery Shaw’s confidant, Basil Smith would surely know about these matters.

But Basil Smith, whether feeling guilty or intimidated by Emma’s fierce demeanor last time, was nowhere to be seen.

Emma, having seen Amelia insulted and despised recently, was already filled with anger, and with Basil Smith avoiding her, her rage intensifies by another three points.

She gathered a bunch of guys and directly kidnapped Basil Smith when he was out.

It was just so blatant.

Basil Smith is Godfery Shaw’s confidant, and few people in Riverwood City dared to touch Basil Smith, because doing so meant bearing the consequences of angering Godfery Shaw.

Basil Smith was blindfolded and pushed into a car; as soon as the door was closed, the car didn’t start and leave.

Basil Smith felt that these kidnappers must be amateurs; this spot was under Imperial Garden’s full surveillance and by kidnapping here, Imperial Garden would immediately be alerted.

Next moment, the blindfold on Basil Smith’s head was yanked off.

Then he saw in front of him, the arrogant young lady of the Lewis family.

Originally thinking it was kidnappers, Basil Smith’s face turned dark upon seeing it was Emma Lewis.

With his meticulous nature, he couldn’t stand such humor: "Miss Lewis, what are you trying to do, is this a provocation to Imperial Garden?"

"I’m not provoking Imperial Garden." Emma Lewis removed Basil Smith’s glasses, saying, "I’m provoking you!"

With his glasses removed, Basil Smith’s vision blurred instantly, and his tone became heavier: "Miss Lewis, what do you want?"

"Heh, what can I do? I just wanted to ask you about the situation between Godfery Shaw and Amelia Wright. Since you’re acting arrogant and avoiding me, what can I do? I had to tie you up and bring you out."

"What do you want to know?" Basil Smith gritted his teeth and asked.

"I want to know what exactly is going on with Godfery Shaw. Wasn’t he coming to Elegant Art to snatch her away in the middle of the night before? How are they suddenly getting divorced, and he’s getting engaged to that Dawson what’s-their-name, leaving Amelia in an awkward position?"

Basil Smith remained silent for a while and said: "It was the Young Madam who first filed for divorce."

Many of the details were inconvenient to explain, so Basil Smith could only use this statement to dodge the question.

Emma Lewis arrogantly replied, "I don’t care who filed first, all I know is, you all embarrassed Amelia!"

Basil Smith was a rule-following person; it was his first time encountering such unreasonable behavior. Without his glasses, he couldn’t see clearly, his anger reddening his face.

After a while, Basil Smith finally calmed down: "Miss Lewis, this is a matter between the Young Master and the Young Madam, outsiders meddling does no good to them. I can only tell you that in the Imperial Garden’s hearts, the Young Madam will always be the Young Madam."

The Young Master has gone through such great lengths to protect the Young Madam; others may not see it, but us confidants see it clearly.

Both the Young Master and the Second Young Master were devoted to the Young Madam.

This means the Young Madam is the sole, the unique one.

Emma Lewis raised her eyebrow.

How is this not quite as she thought?

She assumed Amelia’s situation must be terrible, since the divorce, now with a new mistress for the Imperial Garden.

But from Basil Smith’s words, it seems like Godfery Shaw’s confidants only recognize Amelia, is this also Godfery Shaw’s stance? Perhaps things aren’t as bad as she thought.

The issue is still with Godfery Shaw and Amelia Wright.

Amelia’s character isn’t one to easily bend; truly no clue what these two are up to.

At this moment, the people from Imperial Garden had surrounded the vehicle.

Hailey Smith looked fierce; to kidnap someone on Imperial Garden’s territory was audacious indeed; if Godfery’s brother got kidnapped here, Imperial Garden’s guards would be useless.

Hailey Smith approached, abruptly opening the car door.

Emma Lewis had seen through the car window that Imperial Garden’s people had surrounded them but was not in a hurry.

In the instant Hailey Smith opened the car door, Emma Lewis suddenly felt a mischievous impulse.

She, in a domineering manner, tilted Basil Smith’s chin: "Why are you so angry? Your face is all red, quite adorable."

Before Basil Smith could get angrier, she leaned over and gently bit Basil Smith’s lips.

The car door opened.

Hailey Smith, full of killing intent, was dumbfounded.

This... What’s going on?

Two men in the car? No, it’s his brother and... the young lady of the Lewis family!

His brother wasn’t tied up, with red eyes, a seemingly willing appearance.

Oh my, what did he just see!

He had always said, over the years his brother didn’t seem interested in women at all, turns out his brother has this preference, how... how bold...

"Emma Lewis, are you a dog?" Basil Smith finally couldn’t take it anymore.

It was his second time being bitten.

Emma Lewis grinned widely: "Why don’t you call me Miss Lewis?"

Basil Smith was so angry his breath was heavy.

Hailey Smith awkwardly said: "Am I interrupting, should I step aside?"

Basil Smith gritted his teeth and shouted: "Hailey!"

Hailey shivered; unable to tell if his brother was embarrassed or mad for his meddling.

Emma Lewis felt that this person in front of her seemed about to explode; it was really quite fun.

She, in a rascal tone, said: "Next time, if something happens, and you dare avoid me again, you hide once, and I’ll kidnap you once!"

Basil Smith was probably feeling like a jumbled mess of colors, all mixed without knowing what his mood was.

Emma Lewis put the glasses back on Basil Smith’s face, then pinched his color-paler-than-hers cheek.

"Don’t sulk like a little wife, if you don’t get out of the car, I’ll take you away."

Basil Smith adjusted his glasses on the bridge of his nose, got out of the car quickly with a dark face.

The car arrogantly drove away into the distance.

Hailey Smith dared not look at his brother’s expression.

Feeling his brother seemed to have been teased...
