Chapter 1281novelbin

“What’s going on here?” All of a sudden, a mustached man in his forties strode over, followed by twoguards of his own.

“Mister Umair, sir, this woman claims to be a relative of the Scammells and wishes to meet our master.”the guards reported.

“A relative?” Mister Umair froze, turned to glance at Iris, and was immediately mesmerized by herbeauty.

However, it was one thing to be in awe of her looks, he did not recognize her at all.

“Nonsense! Are all of you blind? They’re clearly crooks trying to trick their way into the mansion, notany relative of the Scammells at all! Chase them away!” he scoffed.

He was also a distant relative of the Scammells but only joined the family over a decade ago. He didnot even hear of Priscilla Scammell, the second daughter of the family, much less her daughter Iris!

“Yes, sir!” The guards immediately turned to shoot Leon and Iris murderous glances and snarled, “Getlost, you crooks!”

Iris was always a lonely child growing up and thus always craved familial connection. She was hopefulof reuniting with her long–lost relatives during this trip, but now, after running into countless obstaclesand could not even get past the front gates, she could not help feeling disappointed at this.

“Never mind, Leon, let’s go home.” She sighed, then tugged on his arm, indicating him to leave. Shewas intending to come back in a few days to try her luck again.

However, before Leon could even reply, Mister Umair cried out. “Wait!”

A glimmer of mischief flashed through his eyes when he caught sight of Iris‘ gorgeous face and curvyfigure.

“What’s going on? Did you change your mind?” Iris froze in her steps, and a glimmer of hope ignited inher eyes when she heard this.

However, the more hopeful one got, the more disappointed they would set themselves up for. MisterUmair’s next sentence made her blood run cold.

“You crooks! There’s no such thing as leaving so easily when you’ve tried to deceive us Scammells!”Mister Umair sneered as an idea crossed his mind. He knew that Mister Nigel, the Scammells‘grandson, was always a lecherous fellow who would never pass up the opportunity to date a beautifulwoman.

The woman standing before him now was absolutely breathtaking, with features so chiseled it was asthough she walked out of an ancient painting, and he never once laid eyes on such a beautiful woman.If he found a way to capture Iris and give her to Mister Nigel, he would no doubt become Nigel’sfavorite and rise to power that way!

“What are you trying to do?” Leon’s expression darkened when he sensed Mister Umair’s tone.

“Guards, capture these two! They tried to deceive their way into the Scammells, and they’re highlylikely to be spies sent here by our business competitors to steal our secrets! Capture and interrogatethem, and find out who sent them here!” Mister Umair ordered.
