Chapter 336 She Couldn’t Wait Any Longer
Fanny thought she would have to wait until tomorrow to see Yaxley at the gathering Mobius had organized. She didn’t expect to run into him here.
Meeting Yaxley here was truly a pleasant surprise. Yaxley offered to take her to the lounge, which was a great opportunity.
However, it would have been better if there wasn’t a woman by Yaxley’s side.
Fanny’s gaze casually swept over the young woman next to Yaxley. She had been affectionately holding onto Yaxley’s arm earlier, and now she wasn’t far from him.
Yaxley took Fanny to the lounge, with the woman following them.
“Thank you. I just need a rest. Fanny thanked Yaxley, then whispered, “My name is Fanny Kins. May I ask for your name?”
She had already learned Yaxley’s name from Mobius, but she felt it wasn’t formal enough.
She wanted Yaxley to tell her himself.
She had been in contact with Yaxley for a while now. The scent of perfume he smelled on her was even stronger than what Angela smelled on her. Now, all she had to do was have Dylan make Yaxley smell another scent, and she could even make something happen between her and Yaxley.
Just the thought of that possibility made Fanny’s heart race.
She couldn’t wait any longer.
“Fanny?” Yaxley looked at her in confusion, feeling that the name sounded somewhat familiar. Yet he didn’t dwell on it and instead introduced himself. “Yaxley Collier.”
Looking at Fanny’s pale face, he was about to say something, but suddenly his phone rang. He apologized before heading toward the lounge door.
Yaxley left the lounge to answer the phone.
Fanny looked at the girl who stayed in the lounge but didn’t say anything.
Suddenly, the girl took a step forward and asked curiously, “Aren’t you my brother’s friend? Why did you just introduce yourself now?”

Ava could clearly sense that Yaxley’s attitude toward Fanny was somewhat different. If it were another lady who had fallen to the ground, Yaxley might not necessarily have gone to help.
Yet, when Yaxley saw Fanny, he hesitated for a moment and then helped her up.
However, it was unreasonable for Fanny and Yaxley to have just exchanged names.
Upon hearing Ava’s address to Yaxley, Fanny paused for a moment before saying, “Your brother helped me.”
She had originally been thinking of how to get this girl to leave, but she hadn’t expected her to be Yaxley’s sister.
Ava exclaimed, “I see. By the way, you’re a Kins too. Are you from Riverdon?”
Upon hearing the word ‘too, Fanny instinctively frowned, but she still nodded. “Yes, I’m from Riverdon.
This was something she couldn’t hide. The fact that she had just transferred to Northland was easily discovered with a little inquiry.
Ava was immediately excited when she heard a positive response and sat next to Fanny. At once, she was overwhelmed by Fanny’s scent. She instinctively backed away.
“Do you know Angela Kins?” she asked.
Both of them had the surname Kins, and they were both from Riverdon. Ava was curious if they were relatives..
Fanny thought, I knew it. Yet, she still smiled and replied, “She’s my sister.”
She smiled gracefully, but deep down, she felt uncomfortable hearing Angela’s name.
Ava wanted to say something, but Yaxley pushed open the door of the loungo. “Mr. Cole is here. You should go home now. He’ll take you back first.”
He was talking to Ava.
Ava pondered for a moment and suggested to Fanny, “Can I get your number?”
Fanny smiled and exchanged numbers with her, saving her name as Yaxley’s sister.
Before departing with Ava, Yaxley advised Fanny to get some rest.
However, Fanny just bit her lip and left the lounge shortly after their departure.

She took the elevator straight up and stopped in front of a room in the hotel.
Upon entering the room, Fanny encountered Dylan, who inquired, “Did it go as planned?” Fanny nodded, then suddenly asked, “Mr. Leigh, do you know Yaxley? He smelled the scent.
on me.”
Surprise flickered in Dylan’s eyes. “You’re acquainted with Yaxley?”
Originally, he intended to introduce Fanny to some affluent young men in Northland the
day and have her seduce someone. He didn’t anticipate Fanny finding one on her own.

“Has he left? Since he smelled the scent, you can keep him tonight.” Dylan’s eyes gleamed with scheming, yet they also held a sense of satisfaction.
Fanny could tell his intentions from his reaction. She heaved a sigh of relief. “He won’t be leaving anytime soon.”
After a few hushed conversations, Dylan summoned his men.
On the other side, after parting ways with Fanny, Angela encountered Jonathan.
“Feeling better?” Noticing Angela approaching him, Jonathan excused himself from the person he was conversing with and headed directly toward her.
Angela nodded. “Yeah. You carry on. I’ll find a spot to wait for you.”
She understood the purpose of Jonathan’s attendance here today. She wasn’t particularly interested in the banquet but was concerned about Jonathan’s injury and wanted to be by his side.
Jonathan nodded and ensured she found a corner to sit in before continuing his conversation. with the other individual.
Angela sat on the couch, observing Jonathan for a moment with her chin resting on her hand. Just then, she felt a vibration from her bag and retrieved her phone.
Yaxley had messaged her about a project. After carefully reading it, she responded.
Mobius also messaged her, inviting her to a small gathering the next day–a welcome–back party for Yaxley.
Angela didn’t give a definite answer at the moment, simply replying with a ‘depends on the situation.’

As she was about to return her phone to her bag, a waiter passed by, and a peculiar fragrance wafted toward her. Angela felt a bit lightheaded, and the scene in front of her appeared to
blur.
Sensing something was amiss, Angela stood up sharply and tried to speak up. However, a waiter happened to pass by, blocking her from others.
Moments later, Angela was nowhere to be found on the couch.
Just as Jonathan finished speaking, he glanced at the couch in the corner and frowned.
Spotting the vacant couch, he swiftly scanned the area but couldn’t locate Angela,
“Mr. Lawson? Is everything alright?” inquired the person he was conversing with.
Jonathan responded, “Something has come up. Excuse me for a moment?
With that, he headed toward the corner and dialed Oliver.
Oliver was outside the hotel and had not yet entered, Jonathan needed him to confirm if Angela was among those leaving.
Meanwhile, he needed to review the surveillance footage to trace Angela’s movements.
While Jonathan was searching for Angela, she had already lost consciousness.
Someone carried her and headed for the elevator, while another person followed as a lookout. Soon, they had transported her to a room.
