Chapter 1680: Self-Destructing Behavior

Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

When Little William heard Ye Feng’s words, his eyes were still wide open, his expression was a little blank.

However, the expressions of the surrounding people changed unconsciously.

All of them looked at Ye Feng.

“Mr. Ye, what do you mean?” The first person to ask was the impatient Duke Buckingham. “Why do you say Farry lied to Little William and everyone else?”

Ye Feng looked at him. “Your Excellency, please calm down, let me talk to Farry in private.”

Duke Buckingham immediately fell silent, but his expression was still somewhat puzzled and incredulous.

It was the same for Little William, Duke Buckingham’s great-granddaughter, and a few servants.

No one believed that Farry would lie.

Even Isabella was a little skeptical, her gaze could not help but shift between Ye Feng and Farry.

Ye Feng did not care about their reactions, after he finished talking to Duke Buckingham, he turned to Farry. “Things have already come to this, are you still going to resist?”

“When I said that I could see through a person’s past, I wasn’t joking.”

Farry still looked timid. “I don’t know why you’re calling me a liar.”

“That day, Little William took out the exclusive Victoria Cross. I don’t remember if he brought it back.”

Ye Feng saw that she was still pretending to be pitiful and weak, and he felt even more disgusted. “It doesn’t matter whether he brought it back or not. The important thing is that you stole the exclusive Victoria Cross.”

“Am I right?”

At this moment, Farry’s body trembled involuntarily. She looked at Ye Feng with a flash of panic.

She was surprised that Ye Feng knew about this.

However, it was only a moment later when she seemed to have thought of something and hurriedly shook her head. “No, you’re slandering me!”

“I didn’t steal anything from granduncle.”

“I can swear to the heavens!”

“You can swear to the ground too, it’s useless.” Ye Feng wanted to expose her.

Farry looked like she had been wronged. Tears started to flow out of her eyes. “I’ve never done such a thing in my life!”

“You framed me!”

As she cried, Duke Buckingham became anxious. He immediately said to Ye Feng, “Mr. Ye, please speak in a gentler tone.”

“Farry is very timid.”

“Besides, I watched her grow up. I know her very well. Up until junior high school, she was indeed very honest and obedient. She didn’t do anything out of line.”

“It’s unlikely that she would do anything like stealing.”

The few servants of the Duke of Buckingham probably felt the same way and echoed. “Yes, she grew up in the Duke of Buckingham’s mansion before she was twelve years old.”

“We’ve all seen her character and style before.”

“It’s unlikely that she would steal.”

Ye Feng was unmoved, and he continued to look at Farry. “You said that you have never stolen anything in your life? Then may I ask, where did the 12 gold bars in your room come from?”

Farry felt as if she had been struck by lightning, and her tears froze.

A moment later, she came back to her senses and hurriedly explained, “What 12 gold bars? I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

“I don’t have such a thing in my room.”

When Ye Feng heard this, he smiled.

When he saw the girl using Little William to shift the blame, he thought that she was a king.

He did not expect that the other party would reveal her true form as soon as he attacked. She was only a Bronze Rank.

Her denying the 12 gold bars that the system had scanned in her room was a self-destructive act.

Ye Feng immediately looked at Duke Buckingham. “My fortune-telling skills have deduced that Farry’s room has 12 gold bars that do not belong to her, but she denies it. Let’s go over and take a look.”

Duke Buckingham had probably noticed Farry’s odd behavior by now.

After looking at Farry for a moment, he nodded.

Then, he asked Farry to lead the way and brought Ye Feng to an elegant villa.

Ye Feng activated the treasure-hunting function.

After entering the villa, when Farry started to dawdle, Ye Feng said, “Under your wardrobe.”

Farry’s eyes flashed with fear when she heard this.

But on the surface, she still had an innocent look. She opened the wardrobe according to Ye Feng’s instructions and moved the pile of messy clothes on the bottom of the wardrobe.

It was not until she removed the clothes, revealing 12 eye-catching gold bars hidden underneath, that she looked shocked. “What the — !”

“Who put so many gold bars in my closet? Who did this?!”

“Why didn’t I know about this before?”

Ye Feng did not care about her acting.

He walked to her side and took out a gold bar that weighed a thousand grams. He handed it to Duke Buckingham. “Take a look. Is this part of the gold in your inventory?”

Duke Buckingham’s face was also a little gloomy.

After receiving the gold bar from Ye Feng, he examined it carefully for a moment before looking at Farry with a gloomy expression. “Citibank, serial number 00068.”

“It’s one of the serial numbers that the president of Citibank arranged for me after he learned that I wanted to store some gold.”

“It’s my gold bar.”

Ye Feng took out a few more gold bars and passed them to Duke Buckingham.

Duke Buckingham glanced at the serial numbers on them and looked at Farry with a dark expression. “These are all mine.”

“Farry, I think I need a reasonable explanation.”

“Why are they in your closet?”

Farry wanted to pretend to be pitiful and innocent.

However, at this moment, a terrifying aura naturally erupted from Duke Buckingham. “Don’t lie to me with the nonsense that you didn’t know, that someone else put them in your closet!”

“You have already disappointed me by stealing my things.”

“If you choose to lie now, I will only be extremely disappointed!”

Farry’s body shook again.

Her expression was extremely ugly as she hesitated for a moment before saying, “I’m sorry, Granduncle. I admit that I was wrong.”

“I took these things.”

“I shouldn’t have taken your things because of a moment of greed. I shouldn’t have made up those lies to lie to you just to avoid responsibility and punishment!”

As she spoke, she suddenly bent down and gave Duke Buckingham a 90-degree bow. “I’m so sorry!”

“…”
