Chapter 151 A Rival Appears
After being teased by Emrys, Myles was about to lose his temper when Lydia suddenly stepped in to
mediate.
Richard and Lydia’s original intention was to introduce the two individuals to each other through this
dinner. After the meal, they planned to discreetly depart, leaving more opportunities for the young pair.
Visiting Tulip Valley was actually a suggestion from Richard and Lydia too, which allowed Myles to set
things up in advance.
However, the appearance of Emrys was unexpected.
Visibly resistant to the idea, Cordelia said, “Forget it. I’m not going…”
“Delia, given the occasion, there’s no harm in taking a stroll,” Emrys said with a smile.
In response, Cordelia could only nod in agreement. However, she held onto Emrys’s arm and said,
“You’re coming with me.”
Richard’s and Lydia’s expressions darkened as a result.
Myles also had a gloomy look in his eyes, but he still made a phone call. He informed a few friends,
whom he had made arrangements with beforehand, that he would be on his way.
Tulip Valley was a free scenic area. It was the season when the tulips were in full bloom. The fragrance
of the tulips permeated the air for miles around.
Tulip Valley was not far. It was just a ten–minute walk away.
A group of young men and women were already standing at the entrance. Judging by their attire, it was
clear that they were scions of wealthy families.
One of them named Aston stepped forward and embraced Myles, laughing heartily as he said, “Haha, ·
Mr. Atkinson sure knows how to keep us waiting. We’ve been waiting here for quite a while.”
It was clear that he was merely joking.
Therefore, Myles wasn’t angry. Instead, he smiled and said, “Let me introduce you. This is Cordelia
Youngblood.”
Myles behaved as if he was very familiar with Cordelia.
“Ms. Youngblood, you look gorgeous!”
Aston and his companions had noticed Cordelia quite early on. They were taken aback by how
incredibly beautiful she was. Therefore, after hearing Myles‘ introduction, they couldn’t help but
compliment her.
However, they quickly noticed Emrys standing next to Cordelia and asked, “And who might this be?”
Chapter 151 A Rival Appea
“Someone insignificant.”
Myles couldn’t be bothered to waste time on Emrys, he said, “Let’s go in!”
Aston glanced thoughtfully at Emrys but didn’t say much. Soon, the group entered Tulip Valley.
“Tulips are one of the ten national flowers of Chanaca, with a wide variety of species. The most
representative ones include Apricot Beauty Tulips, Fosteriana Tulips, Greigii Tulips, and Purple Prince
Tulips, among others. They are famous for their stunning beauty and amazing fragrance…”
Walking along the small path lined with tulips on both sides, Myles admired the flowers while explaining
eloquently,
The young female socialites accompanying him were immediately filled with admiration, evidently
captivated by Myles‘ knowledge.
Yet, Myles didn’t pay any attention to the pretty girls around him. Instead, his gaze was fixed on
Cordelia, hoping to earn a single word of praise from her. Even a mere glance from her would have
been enough for him.
However, when Myles saw Cordelia’s indifferent and cold expression, his hopes were instantly
shattered.
“Dr. Lund! Have you come to admire the tulips as well?”
At that moment, a crisp and pleasant voice suddenly rang out. Following that, a tall, slender girl with a
delicate and pretty face joyfully ran up to Emrys.
It was none other than Jacqueline.
Emrys chuckled and said, “We just finished dinner. After that, I came out for a stroll with my sister.”
“Oh, so she’s your sister!”
Jacqueline seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, taking the initiative to greet Cordelia with a smile, “Hello,,
my name is Jacqueline.”
“I’m Cordelia Youngblood, Emrys‘ foster sister.”
Cordelia also introduced herself and particularly emphasized that she was Emrys‘ foster sister. While
speaking, she even wrapped her arm around Emrys‘ elbow possessively.
Jacqueline’s face momentarily froze, but she quickly stilled herself, refusing to show any signs of
weakness. She clung to Emrys’s other arm, her smile sweet as she asked, “Dr. Lund, may I join you
admiring the tulips?”
