Chapter 421 The Scott Family Cannot Mess with My Wife
After saying that, Austin quit the group.
What Austin did put Wendy on the spot.
Naomi’s pretentious words had been exposed as well. The group was as awkward as could be,
Austin’s unusual behavior that day also reminded Naomi to stop being too soft.
She had to maintain her relationships through special means, no matter how close she was to the person.
After quitting the group, Austin felt invigorated.
He
gave Logan a video call right away. “Where’s Wynter? Damn, she’s amazing. She was so calm even when she met Mr. Stavius, making him tell a fortune voluntarily. My grandfather saw it and praised her as well, saying that she was exceptional. He wants to meet her.”
“You didn’t tell Mr. Fenton Senior that Wynter helped us remove the resentment, did you?” Logan was still worried about that. “The Scott family has been asking around. I’m worried. that they will harm Wynter.”
At that moment, Dalton thoughtfully brought over a cup of hot tea. “Why don’t you add me to your group chat so I can know who wants to hurt my fiancée?”
Smack!
Austin’s phone had fallen and hit his face square on.
He was so scared he was stammering, “L–Logan, that person beside you is…”
“It’s me.” Dalton took Logan’s phone from his hand nonchalantly, “It’s been a while, Mr.
Fenton.”
Austin waved his hand around frantically. “D–Don’t call me Mr. Fenton! I mean Dalton, why are you there? I–I…”
“My wife is nice and doesn’t like to hold grudges over trivial matters.” Dalton interrupted Austin and coughed lightly. He drawled, “I’ve taken you out for some fun when we were younger. You should know that I am vengeful.”
In Austin’s opinion, Dalton was more than just vengeful. Austin had told Dalton he would die young, and Dalton almost took Austin’s life.
“Dalton, I spoke up for Wynter just now.” Austin was truly sweet and naive. “But Dalton,
you said you were not all that interested in this marriage, didn’t you?”
Dalton’s tone was light. “I was blind.”
Austin and Logan were both taken aback. They weren’t expecting him to ever insult himself.
“So, which of you is adding me to the group?” Dalton asked casually.
Both Austin and Logan were stunned. The latter scratched the back of his hand and said, Dalton, we both left the group. We can’t add you.”
“Mhm. It will diminish our reputation somewhat to join again.” Austin thought his actions of leaving the group earlier were very cool.
Tapping at the phone screen, Dalton said, “I don’t have to join. Give me all their names. As for the Scott family, if anyone asks you again, tell them to come to me.”
With that, he returned the phone to Logan.
“Wynter wants you to have a good rest after finishing the hot tea.”
Dalton stood upright and looked back at the video call. “Austin, tell Mr. Fenton Senior that if the Scott family plans to make a move on my fiancée, the Yarwood family will assist in whatever way he wants to exact revenge on the Scott family.”
Austin froze.
Regardless of whether he understood the complex relationships between the major families, he did understand one thing.
The Yarwood family never made alliances with anyone because they never had to bow down
on anyone.
If the Yarwood family took action, the Scott family would be annihilated.
In truth, as of right now, the Scott family was not doing well either.
They had missed the timing, so the spell to transfer the resentment could not be completed.
If it hadn’t been for the artifact Darrell had brought with him, Mason would have lost his
life.
However, from the Scott family’s perspective, Mason, who had lost his wits due to fear, was already incapacitated.
Peter could not tell outsiders why his grandson had ended up in such a state either.
Seeing that Mason was drooling from the corner of his mouth, Mason’s butler, Jamar, had to ask, “Is there really no way for him to recover?”
