Chapter 1045: Chapter 1048 Visit the Scott Family Personally (3) Chapter 1045: Chapter 1048 Visit the Scott Family Personally (3) “What are you doing!”
Uncle Mark was startled and shocked.
He never expected that a woman who seemed so delicate could have such strength.
“What do you think I'm doing?” Lily retorted coldly, “If I hadn't pulled the door open, by now, my fingers might have been crushed.”
Lily already had a bone to pick with Larry Scott, and she was unaware that Uncle Mark was actually working for Wendy Jenkins.
She naturally attributed this incident to Larry Scott.
Like master, like servant.
If the servants of the Scott family were this arrogant and overbearing, one could easily imagine what Larry's usual behavior was like.
With this in mind, Lily's impression of Larry worsened.
“Nonsense! I was just closing the door, and it was you who insisted on sticking your fingers in.”
The argument between Uncle Mark and Lily disturbed the people inside.
A few men looking like guards came running out.
“What's going on?”
“Uncle Mark, it's so late… who are you arguing with?”
The entrance of the Scott family manor was always guarded.
The men were inside just now as Uncle Mark came to bring them a late-night meal.
Because they heard the doorbell ringing, and Uncle Mark said he would check it out, the guards did not move.
Hearing the commotion outside, in the middle of the night, they feared trouble might have arisen and came out with grim expressions.
Seeing that the person arguing with Uncle Mark was a delicate woman, the seriousness faded from their faces, leaving only confusion and bewilderment.
In the middle of the night, why would a woman come knocking on the door? And moreover, get into a dispute with Uncle Mark?
“It's nothing, this woman is causing trouble. I'll send her away right now.”
These guards were different from Uncle Mark; they were members of the military and were all personal guards of Larry Scott.
Uncle Mark was anxious for them to remain ignorant that the woman he was sending away had come for Larry.
He immediately put on a fierce expression and roared at Lily, “Why won't you leave when I tell you to? Go away, go away, it's late, don't come here making trouble.”
After he spoke, he grabbed the door handle, intending to close the door.
But who would have known…
Uncle Mark pulled hard several times and realized he couldn't budge the door handle.
Stunned, he stopped and noticed that the woman outside was still clutching the door panel.
Not only was she clutching the door panel, but she had also braced a foot under the doorframe.
No wonder he couldn't pull it shut; it was this woman causing mischief!
Uncle Mark became furious and turned to the guards, “This woman is causing trouble by knocking on the door in the middle of the night. I don't even know how she got into the East District's courtyard. Throw her out so she won't cause any trouble here!”
In the entire East District compound, there wasn't a single household with the surname Yue.
This woman was too arrogant; Uncle Mark felt his authority was being challenged and wanted to give Lily a piece of his mind.
The guards' primary responsibility was the safety of the Scott family.
A woman knocking on the door late at night was indeed strange.
The guards exchanged looks and unanimously decided to take this suspicious person to the gatehouse.
Even if there were other matters, it wouldn't be too late to report them after Commander Scott woke up in the morning.
One of the guards, receiving a signal from his companions, walked up to Lily. Without questioning, he prepared to 'escort' Lily to the gatehouse.
Of course, Lily was not about to leave just like that.
*
Larry was a light sleeper; he woke up as soon as the first sound of the argument reached downstairs.
In the dead of night, he heard the steady breathing of the woman next to him and opened his eyes, but did not turn on the light.
The East District compound was not only secure at night but also tranquil.
The curtains of Larry's room were open, allowing him to hear the noises outside.
His hearing was exceptional, and it was easy for him to discern that the person arguing with Uncle Mark downstairs was a woman.
