274 Settling Fiancés (2/2)

”I will get that past-corroded bangle for you.” He replied in a bored nonchalant tone. Like it was really not a bother to him at all, like it was all covered.

Yu Youhan raked his brains at what his cousin had going on in his head. He couldn't possibly have the heirloom but if that witch was with him… he could.

But it was more than just an opportunity. If they were getting back together while Lu Xinyi was in the way, they would cause a great amount of damage, mentally and emotionally if not physically.

The girl was naïve and innocent but a woman like Lei Xinyi would spare no canons when humiliating her because of her past nuptial plans with Li Yuan.

And Li Yuan would probably encourage her to get a kick out of it, which was unfair to a precious little pure heart like hers.

Lei Xinyi and Li Yuan were both cruel in their handling of people in their way. No! He couldn't let Lu Xinyi face their hostility and become an example for others!

In the society of the women, he wouldn't be able to protect her as it was only woman that was in there. Nor he could keep her away from it all, she was a pesky, curious creature.

For the first time, he cursed not having a sister to do her wing woman job.

With a newfound resolved Yu Youhan continued, ”Not enough, that woman had caused me more trouble than this…”

”I know, I know.” Li Yuan lazily drawled. He could practically hear his cousin thinking out loud.

If Lei Xinyi wanted to play with the girl he wouldn't deny her but in his personal opinion the little girl was annoying, childish and a headache so he would want nothing but for her to stay away from him. Especially, when she had Lei Xinyi's face and acted like a damn brat!

He sighed as if the request to him was a nuisance in itself, ”You want me to compensate you? So I free that little canary of yours so you might want to shift her to one of your villas. Big Lu has offered me something far more useful and...less hideous.”

Yu Youhan wanted to give him the string of curses for what he had said about her insinuating she was his next wh*re but Li Yuan hung up.

He looked at the dark screen with narrowed eyes but a satisfying curved of his lips soon. Finally, she wasn't a fiancé to him anymore which meant she was single and…available.

But a thought stripped his smirk off his face. He had shunned her for weeks not responding to her messages, calls, or even not bothering when she showed up on his door.

She wouldn't forgive him for hurting her and…she had clearly said she didn't see him as a love interest. His face marred in another set of gloom and rage. He was suddenly too tired to sit in his office and pretend everything was okay and dandy.

He decided to race to his condominium where he was living. He left the building at once. His driver drove with speed. From time to time he saw his formidable Boss back from the mirror.

He had his head thrown back resting, he looked tired in his stance like he was tensed and stressed.

Usually, his Master would have gone to release the pent-up frustration but since he had let those Mistresses go and the little pixie left he had been this way. He almost pitied him.

”Young Master Yu, we are here.” He said to get his attention.

Yu Youhan opened his eyes gazing at the ceiling, in thought but made no effort to get out.

”Go to the Mansion.”
