Chapter 1682: That Means You Are Blind Too

Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

However, this time, Duke Buckingham did not trust Farry as easily as before.

After a moment, he picked up his phone and called Farry’s parents.

After confirming that Farry’s parents’ business was on the verge of bankruptcy, he put down his phone and looked at Farry with a pained expression. “When did you start working part-time?”

“It’s been a long time.” Farry lowered her head, her voice soft and weak. “I’m quite lucky. My temperament and looks are quite suitable to be a model.”

“I only went for an interview once, and a modeling company took a fancy to me.”

“The workload isn’t that heavy. I just need to spend two days a week trying on clothes and filming.”

Duke Buckingham nodded and asked a few more questions about her part-time job and living expenses.

Farry also answered fluently.

“I’ll get the servant to send you a check later.” When Duke Buckingham heard this, his heart ached.

“You can do some part-time work to train yourself, but don’t torture yourself too much in life.”

“In the future, if you want to buy anything or need money, just tell me.”

Farry looked very touched. “Thank you, Granduncle.”

As she spoke, she looked at the gold bars in Duke Buckingham’s hand with some guilt. “I’m really sorry about what happened before. I’ve disappointed you.”

Duke Buckingham, however, was already moved by compassion. He looked at her with a hint of pity and said, “Just remember this lesson in the future.”

Farry was about to nod again.

But Ye Feng sneered. “Duke Buckingham, I’m afraid you will be disappointed.”

“She won’t think that this is a lesson.”

“On the contrary, she will only think that you are stupid.”

“Very easy to deceive.”

Duke Buckingham’s expression immediately stiffened.

Isabella was a little unhappy, she immediately scolded Ye Feng. “How can you speak to Duke Buckingham like that?!”

“Farry seems to have her difficulties and knows that she was wrong.”

“…”

“If you think so, then it means that you’re blind too.” Ye Feng interrupted.

Then, before Isabella could react, he pulled open the bedside table beside him, revealing an electric toy and a bunch of limited-edition accessories.

“Open your eyes and take a good look.”

“What’s inside?”

“These are more than 10 pieces of limited-edition jewelry from Cartier! Givenchy’s 50th-anniversary wallet, and Hermes’ crocodile skin handbag!”

Then, he opened another closet in Farry’s room. “And here!”

“There are all kinds of top-notch dresses. There are more than 30 sets!”

“Do you think a person who has to work part-time to earn her living expenses can buy these things?”

When Isabella saw this scene, her eyes widened, and the words that she was about to say to Ye Feng stopped abruptly.

She stared blankly at the nightstand and wardrobe that Ye Feng had opened. She was stunned for a while before she said, “These… They’re worth at least a million dollars, right?”

“Moreover, many of them seem to have been bought not long ago. She hasn’t had the time to throw away the receipts and labels.”

Duke Buckingham was probably numb as well. His eyes were filled with disbelief and deep disappointment as he looked at Farry. “You, you lied to me again?”

Ye Feng did not wait for Farry’s reply. He said, “To be more precise, she has been lying to you from the beginning.”

“About Little William, about the 12 gold bars, about the source of the 7,000 dollars in her bank account…”

“And most importantly, about the exclusive Victoria Cross.”

“She has been using her harmless appearance and your magnanimity to fool you.”

“I didn’t.” Farry still wanted to deny it.

Ye Feng did not give her a chance to speak, he looked at her with an oppressive gaze. “Then let me ask you one last question, what’s with the 7000 dollars in your bank card?”

“It’s, it’s my salary from my part-time job.”

“Where’s the exclusive Victoria Cross? Do you dare to say that it has nothing to do with you?”

“I do dare to say it! I can swear on the happiness of the rest of my life and the lives of my parents!”

“Alright, let’s stop here.” Ye Feng did not ask anymore. “Let me call a friend over, we can continue our conversation.”

As he spoke, he avoided Duke Buckingham, Farry, and the others and called John Bull directly.

When John Bull heard that he had to identify the customer who sold him the goods, he was initially unwilling.

After all, this was a violation of professional ethics.

Even if Ye Feng was Samia’s boss, he could not do it.

But when he heard Ye Feng point out that the person he needed to identify had stolen Duke Buckingham’s things, and Ye Feng wanted to seek justice for Duke Buckingham, he agreed to rush over.

When Ye Feng heard his reaction, he had a new understanding of Duke Buckingham’s reputation.

After ending the call with John Bull, he returned to Farry’s bedroom unhurriedly.

“Which friend did you call?” Farry was probably a little flustered now, so she asked when she saw him return.

Ye Feng could not be bothered by her, he only said to Duke Buckingham, “There’s an old saying in China, that a person who has been away for three days should be treated differently.”

“Your Excellency, you watched Farry grow up to twelve years old.”

“But you don’t know what happened in the years after she turned twelve, and how much she changed.”

Pain and deep disappointment flashed in Duke Buckingham’s eyes. “You’re right.”

“I know nothing about her from the age of twelve to seventeen.”

“I shouldn’t look at her the same way I did a few years ago.”

“Mr. Ye, you taught me a good lesson today.”

Ye Feng replied with a smile. “I don’t dare to lecture you, it’s just a reminder.”

“There’s another old saying in China, ‘You can’t judge a person by their appearance.’”

“Your Excellency, it’s better to be more careful in the future.”

Duke Buckingham nodded. “A person who has been away for three days should be treated differently. You may know a person’s face but not his heart.”

“Very good.”

“I’ve remembered everything.”

“…”

As he spoke, he started chatting with Ye Feng.

Ye Feng was not in a hurry, he just patiently chatted with him.

It was not until the phone rang and John Bull informed him that he had arrived that he stopped talking to Duke Buckingham.

Not long after he reported his location, a servant led John Bull in.
