Noah Reyes looked at Uncle Ying's arrogant deanor and really wanted to reach in, grab Uncle Ying's collar, and give him a good thrashing. Just a thought!
"Uncle, I think you can see I bear a striking resemblance to your Young Master Jimmy. It's because I'm Young Master Jimmy's daddy. So, can you let in now? I really want to et your Miss Adele." Although Noah Reyes was still polite, his tone was no longer as gentle as before; his anger was clearly simring.
Only then did Uncle Ying give him a cold glance—yes, a re glance—before looking up at the sky again and responding indifferently, "Our Young Master Jimmy has no daddy."
"Bullshit! If he had no daddy, could Jimmy have sprouted from a stone?" Noah Reyes barked, practically fuming. Glades Horne had indirectly admitted that he was Jimmy Horne's daddy, yet this damned man, clearly a servant, wanted to deny the fact of his paternity!
"Of course not. Young Master Jimmy was born to our Miss Adele. However, that has nothing to do with you. This world is vast, and there are many people who look alike. Are you suggesting you're the daddy to all of them?" Uncle Ying utterly disregarded his fury.
The Young Master had already instructed that if soone ca looking for Miss Adele, they were to be treated this way.
The Young Master had said the best outco would be to make the visitor so angry they'd be hopping mad and seething, yet utterly powerless.
"You..." Noah Reyes was so furious he was speechless.
"Get Glades Horne out here to see !" Noah Reyes finally roared.
"Sorry, our Young Master is very busy. If you want to see our Young Master, go make an appointnt with Valence Group first. As far as I know, many people want to et the Young Master. If you go make an appointnt now, you might get to see our Young Master by the last day of next year," Uncle Ying answered with the sa indifference.
Uncle Ying's response drove Noah Reyes mad.
"Boss, let's just force our way in. Madam is definitely inside." The bodyguard, being very perceptive, knew the Boss had special feelings for the young master's biological mother and proactively referred to Adele Horne as Madam.
Noah Reyes raised his hand, stopping his n from acting rashly.
Now, even if he were the Heavenly Emperor himself, he couldn't just barge in. Doing so would only invite more trouble from Glades Horne.
Ever since he suspected Adele Horne was the 'her' he was looking for, he knew Glades Horne would make his life hell.
Look, it's starting now. Even a re servant dares to disregard .
Suppressing his raging anger, Noah Reyes regained his composure and said patiently to Uncle Ying, "Uncle, your Young Mistress is inside, isn't she?" The only one who can help now is Julia Bluen. Ti to try winning over the wife.
"I don't know."
Uncle Ying's answer was those sa infuriating words.
Noah Reyes's face twitched again.
Looking at Uncle Ying's detestable face, Noah Reyes decided not to question him further. Instead, he pressed the doorbell again, hoping other servants from the Horne Family would appear.
Soon enough, just as he wished, Aunt i arrived.
"Husband, what's with this guy? You're standing right here, so why is he still ringing the doorbell? Is he blind or sothing? Can't he see you?" Aunt i was even more caustic, insulting him the mont she opened her mouth.
Noah Reyes's face twitched yet again.
The servants of the Horne Family are truly one more caustic than the next. It's true what they say: like master, like servant.
"Excuse , sister-in-law..."
"Stop right there! Who are you calling sister-in-law? I don't recall having a younger brother-in-law like you," Aunt i snapped, her words sharp.
Noah Reyes's face darkened further.
"Excuse , is Julia Bluen here?" he asked, deciding to skip the pleasantries.
"Tsk! You look presentable enough, quite suave even. So why are you so shaless? Our Young Mistress and Young Master are deeply in love; there's no room for a third party to interfere. Take your flowers and get lost! Our Young Mistress won't et a scoundrel like you." Aunt i's acrimonious tirade instantly left Noah Reyes speechless with frustration.
Aunt i actually mistook for that kind of scoundrel—a scoundrel trying to pursue Julia Bluen!
Alright, he admitted he admired Julia Bluen, but it was purely platonic admiration. The one he truly wanted was Adele Horne, damn it!
Adele Horne, who had returned to her room, knew Noah Reyes had arrived. She hid inside, not daring to take a single step out.
Julia Bluen, however, leaned against the Main House's front door with her arms crossed, leisurely watching the distant figure outside the villa—the arrogant Lord of the Blazing Fla, who was now so enraged it looked like smoke was rising from his head and fire was shooting from his eyes.
"Adele, don't you want to co and enjoy the show? Jimmy's daddy even brought flowers," Julia said, turning her head with an amused smile to look at Adele Horne, who was sitting in the living room, and asked playfully.
The Old Madam was also sitting there. Hearing Julia's words, she said with so exasperation, "You mischievous girl! Adele is terrified he'll storm in to snatch Jimmy, and you're still in the mood to watch the drama unfold?"
Julia returned to the sofa, sat down with a smile, and replied, "But the drama really is entertaining."
As one could imagine, Noah Reyes, enduring the cold shoulder from Uncle Ying and Aunt i outside the gate, was being thoroughly ssed with by his future brother-in-law, Glades Horne, and Julia Bluen.
Noah Reyes still couldn't get in, but he wasn't ready to give up and leave just like that.
After finally learning Adele Horne's na and identity, he was determined to see her today.
If I wait out here all day, I refuse to believe I won't even catch a glimpse of Adele Horne, he thought.
The sun climbed higher and higher.
It was ti for them to leave for the company.
Glades Horne's car was the first to drive out.
Noah Reyes tried to stop Glades Horne's car, but Glades ordered his Bodyguards not to stop, and Noah failed.
He had once treated Glades Horne with arrogance, and now Glades was retaliating in kind, treating him with the sa arrogance.
Retribution really does co swiftly.
A short while after Glades Horne's car left, he finally saw that BMW driving out.
Seeing the car is like seeing the person!
He was imdiately overjoyed. This ti, he recklessly stood in the middle of the villa entrance to block it. He knew that in the Horne Family, only Adele Horne drove a BMW, so he thought the driver must be Adele.
Who would have thought? As the car window rolled down, Julia Bluen's pretty face appeared, wearing an enigmatic, faint smile.
"Mr. Reyes, may I ask what your business is in stopping my car?"
Julia Bluen?
Why is it Julia Bluen?
"I... Isn't this Adele's car?" Noah Reyes felt a pang of extre embarrassnt.
The mighty Lord of the Blazing Fla, reduced to such a sorry state so early in the morning.
"And why can't I drive it?" Julia retorted, her smile still enigmatic.
In Noah Reyes's eyes, Julia Bluen, who he'd hoped would be his savior, was actually the truly manipulative one.
Noah Reyes was speechless for a mont, but he quickly recovered and said politely, "Could you do a favor? Please let go in and see Adele."
"Adele isn't here," Julia Bluen answered coolly.
"Where did she go?"
