Chapter 1101: My Efforts Will Not Be in Vain
Ian Douglas felt frustrated, but stubbornly said, "What, did that little brat tell you something? Does he think I can’t hit his woman?"Hmph, it’s just a little girl, whether she should be hit or not, she’s been hit already. Does his dear grandson want to abandon his grandfather over a woman?
"Master, doing this will only make Young Master care more for Miss Yates and create distance between you two, it’s not worth it." Uncle Spencer shook his head and sighed, advising earnestly, "I already mentioned, Master, no matter how uncomfortable you feel, you need to maintain peace on the surface. The more you reject Miss Yates, the more Young Master will protect her. You’re just strengthening their relationship."
"Earlier, I saw Young Master looking completely heartbroken, as if he wished he could take Miss Yates’s pain himself." To prove his point, Uncle Thompson lied.
Matthew Saxon stared at Scarlett Yates with an expression that he honestly didn’t see.
Ian Douglas froze, furrowing his brow.
Uncle Thompson’s words weren’t unreasonable, Ian Douglas remembered the look Matthew gave him when he left.
That little brat had never looked at him with such a cold, distant gaze before.
The look was fierce and cold, like a ferocious wolf, exuding a harsh energy from head to toe.
"Master, why must you insist on blocking Young Master? Miss Yates may not have a strong family background, but at least her family is respectable; she’s not some sort of troublemaker. With the Saxon Family’s current power, there’s no need to seek out a family of equal standing to consolidate the family’s status. You care so much for Young Master, why not just..."
"No." Before Uncle Spencer finished, Ian Douglas interrupted him coldly.
"Even if we’re not looking for a match in terms of family background, it can’t be that unruly girl. She has no manners, a bad temper, and is completely unlikable."
Uncle Spencer’s eyebrows twitched, hesitated for a moment, and slowly said, "Master, actually... don’t you think Miss Yates shares a bit of your temperament when you were younger?"
"Who’s like that brat!" Ian Douglas almost jumped like he’d been stepped on, glaring and saying, "Old Spencer, the things I asked you to investigate, how did they turn out?"
How could he have been as annoying as that brat when he was younger, Old Spencer was simply talking nonsense.
Uncle Spencer looked at him, quite helpless, and nodded, "I’ve found out everything. I’ve selected ten according to your wishes. All their profiles are in here."
He said, placing a file on the desk, "These girls are all very qualified in various aspects, Master can have a look to see if he’s satisfied."
Ian Douglas lifted his eyelids slightly, not bothering to open the file, tapping his fingers twice on the desk with a smile playing at his lips, "I’ve no concerns about your work. Make arrangements for tomorrow night at Saxon Mansion; hold a banquet and invite these girls over, and I’ll take a good look then."
Even though Uncle Spencer had always taken his words seriously, at this point, he hesitated, "Master... are you sure you want to do this? If Young Master finds out your intentions, given his temperament, he’ll only become resistant, and your efforts will be in vain, won’t they?"
Ian Douglas suddenly gave a meaningful smile, a quick flash of a strange light in his eyes, "My efforts won’t be in vain."
