Cherished By Seven Sisters

Chapter 220 Actually Acquainted
Richard and Lydia suddenly furrowed their brows, feeling a strong distaste for Myles‘ words. They blamed him inwardly,
wondering what on earth was the matter with him. Hadn’t he made a promise on the way here? Why has he become so
annoying so quickly? A top student who returned from studying abroad at Jetroina, my foot!
Myles naturally noticed the change in the expressions of the three people, but his words were already spoken and couldn’t be
taken back. So, he continued, “I know that my words might make you uncomfortable, but I did this only because I couldn’t bear to
see Cordelia continue to be kept in the
dark.”
As he spoke, he handed his phone over to Richard and Lydia. Displayed on the screen were the photos that Aston had sent him
the previous night.
As expected, the couple’s expressions indeed turned somber. It’s over. The young man seen entering and exiting the hotel with
the unfamiliar beauty in the photograph is indeed Emrys! Moreover, the quality of the photo is superb.
This time, the couple truly felt a real sense of crisis.
Richard was filled with worry. Cordelia, on the other hand, remained calm after seeing the picture. She pointed outside and said,
“Well, isn’t that the two of them?”
Emrys and Ninette happened to show up in the courtyard outside the door..
Everyone fell silent.
By that point, how could everyone not have realized that the whole thing was a misunderstanding? The beautiful woman who
was seen entering and exiting the hotel with Emrys last night was actually acquainted with Cordelia.
“Do you need me to introduce her to you?”
Cordelia looked at Myles with a smug expression, saying, “This beauty here is Nina. Besides her, I have six other best friends
with whom I share an incredibly close bond. Even if all seven of us were to go in and out of hotels with Rys and stay in the same
room, it would have absolutely nothing to do with you, Mr. Atkinson.”
She was implying that Myles was meddling in affairs that didn’t concern him.

The corners of Myles‘ mouth suddenly twitched a few times.
Lydia spoke with a heavy heart. “Oh, my. So, you have six competitors. No, including the one from the Balford family, there are
seven. Cordelia, heed my advice. Emrys is an excellent man. You must seize the opportunity!”
Here she goes again. Cordelia’s face turned slightly red as she said, “Mom, don’t talk nonsense. Our relationship with Rys is
purely sibling–like...”
Her voice grew fainter and fainter, clearly lacking in confidence.

Chapter 220 Actually Acquainted
Upon witnessing that scene, Myles nearly flipped the table in frustration. D*mn it. I’ve become the fool again.
Myles was extremely annoyed.
The counterattack point he had found with great difficulty was surprisingly nullified so easily. Not only that, he himself had instead
left an impression of being meddlesome to Cordelia. I’m so d*mn frustrated.
Seeing the grim expression on his face, Lydia tried to defuse the tension to prevent their relationship from becoming too strained.
She said with a smile, “Although it’s a misunderstanding, Myles has good intentions. Cordelia, please don’t blame him.”
Cordelia couldn’t be bothered to respond. I won’t blame him at all, for in my eyes, he’s nothing more than air, a figure so
insignificant as if he doesn’t exist. So, what’s there to blame?
Myles simply couldn’t bear to stay there any longer. He got up, ready to leave. Lydia wanted to keep him there, especially since
Myles had come in their car and didn’t have his own vehicle. However, Myles assured her that his friend would come to
Jadeborough to pick him up.
After saying his piece, he left Verdant Estate with a gloomy expression.
Richard watched Myles‘ retreating figure, subtly shaking his head, feeling somewhat disappointed.

Lydia had already been working hard to smooth things over for Myles just now. If Myles were sensible, the best course of action
would be to sit down, endure for a while, and then leave with them.
Leaving at that moment would only give others the impression that he was there solely to sow discord between Cordelia and
Emrys. Now that Myles‘ attempt at instigation failed, he immediately left in a fit of embarrassed anger.
Myles was too scheming and petty, which would only make others find him despicable.
Richard figured the son of his long–time friend still had plenty to learn in the future.
