Chapter 362 Men Are Unreliable Chapter 362 Men Are Unreliable âI didnât expect such a dramatic event to have occurred between you two before. Ava sighed, seizing the moment as Yaxley escorted Fanny away.
Tyra ushered Angela and Sophia to sit down, asking, âCould you tell me about Fanny? Yaxley seems to have taken a liking to her for some reason.â
Angela glanced at Sophia. If we discuss Fanny again, itâs almost as if weâre reopening Sophiaâs old wounds.
Realizing that now was not the appropriate me to delve into this matter, Tyra swiftly changed the topic.
Sophia took a deep breath. Her emotions had been on a rollercoaster ride earlier, and she still felt a bit lightheaded.
âMrs. Collier, I will make time to speak with Yaxley,â she declared. She had come to Northland primarily to unwind, so she couldnât afford to dwell too much on other matters. However, witnessing Fanny deceive Yaxley was something she couldnât ignore.
Tyra nodded. âAlright.â
She then inquired about Angela and Sophiaâs food preferences so she could incorporate them into the dinner preparations.
Ava observed everyone chatting happily and decided to join in.
The room was filled with joy when Yaxley entered.
Meanwhile, after Fanny was escorted home, she immediately contacted Dylan.
âMr. Leigh, Sophia has arrived in Northland,â Her tone turned hostile when she mentioned Sophia, as if she wanted to tear Sophia apart.
Dylan was unaware of who Sophia was, prompting Fanny to provide an explanation.
âFanny, I cannot assist you with this at the moment.â The chaotic music in Dylanâs background ceased, and he continued. âI had previously invested a significant sum to have someone attack Yoanna. Yet, you have made no progress with Yaxley. How do you expect me to react?â
Fanny couldnât help but lament, âBut Yoanna was unharmed after the attack!â
She desired more than just a simple leg fracture for Yoanna.
Dylan retorted, âUnharmed? She will be confined to the hospital for at least two weeks. Isnât that enough? As for you, you must get engaged to Yaxley within the next two weeks!â
Having some business dealings that required leveraging the Collier Familyâs influence, Dylan had to find a way through Fanny.
Gritting her teeth, Fanny revealed what Sophia had told Yaxley about her actions in Riverdon. This revelation alarmed Dylan.
However, Fanny was the one who bore the brunt of the consequences. Angrily scolding her, Dylan 1/4 Chapter 362 Men Are Unreliable demanded. âWhy didnât you intervene? And how bas ties to the Coller Family? Why didnât is it that the person youâve crossed paths with previously you mention this earlier?â
âI was unaware as well.. Fanny continued to plead, âMr. Leigh, please assist me once more. Help me deal with her If cavumstances in Riverdon had been different, she would have wished for Sophiaâs demise. Now that Sophia had ventured to Northland alone, she didnât want to miss this opportunity.
âDo you think Iâm a miracle worker? Even if this needs to be done, you must handle it yourself!â Dylan wasnât naive. If he wanted to control Fammy, he couldnât afford to give her such leverage.
Suggesting that Fanny take matters into her own hands was a way to provoke her. He didnât anticipate. Fanny acrecing immediately.
To Dylanâs surprise. Fanny hesitated for only a moment before agreeing.
âAlright, Mr. Leigh. As long as you assist me, I will do whatever you tell me to, Fanny declared eagerly. As she pondered Sophiaâs imposing demeanor earlier, she felt a strong desire to confront her immediately!
She was determined to settle both past and present scores at once!
âOkay, wait for me to make some arrangements. Dylan hesitated for a moment before agreeing.
Fanny wanted to say something else, but Dylan ended the call abruptly.
As she stared at the disconnected phone. Fanny quickly regained her composure and dialed Christopherâs umber Christopher answered Fannyâs call almost immediately.

âFanny, whatâs the matter?â Christopher asked with concern.
Through tears. Fanny managed to say, âChristopher, Sophia is in Northland, she... she...â
Christopher had already been informed about Sophiaâs presence in Northland by Michael, but he was surprised by how quickly Fanny found out.
Anxiously, he inquired. âWhat has Sophia done to you?â
Assuming that Sophia had mistreated Fanny, Christopher was taken aback when Fanny did not confirm his. suspicions Before she explained. Fanny hesitated and asked. âChristopher, did you already know that Sophia was in Northland!â
Noticing Christopherâs lack of surprise, Fanny deduced that he had prior knowledge of Sophiaâs arrival.
Despite this. Christopher had not informed her!
If Christopher had informed her as soon as he learned about Sophiaâs presence in Northland, perhaps she could have avoided encountering Sophia at the Collier Residence!
2/4 Chapter 362 Men Are Unreliable Sure enough, men are not reliable!
âI just found out as well. My dad told me. Fanny, I apologize for not telling you sooner,â Christopher quickly reassured her upon sensing her disappointment.
Though sti!! upset. Fanny spoke softly and pitifully.
âI didnât blame you, Christopher. But did Mr. Sanders inform you about Sophiaâs arrival to encourage you to be with her?â she asked.
In response, Christopher hastily clarified, âFanny, I have no intention of being with her! My heart belongs to you, Fanny.â
Noticing a softer tone in Fannyâs words compared to their earlier meeting, Christopher saw an opportunity to win her back that he couldnât resist.
Fanny sighed before making a request, âChristopher, could you do me a favor?â
âDonât mention it, Fanny. I would do anything for you, even give my life,â Christopher blurted out without hesitation.
âChristopher, please donât say that. I just want you to tell Sophia that I was unaware of your relationship at that time... she whispered.
âWell...â Christopher hesitated.
Fanny pressed further, âDo you still have feelings for her, Christopher?â
âNo, Fanny. I promise I will tell her,â Christopher quickly assured her.
Relieved, Fanny urged Christopher to act promptly, âChristopher, why donât you call her now?â
If she wasnât concerned about raising suspicion, she would have asked Christopher to put the call on speakerphone.
Her true intention was not to inform Sophia, but to prove her innocence to Yaxley.
Thinking that Fanny wanted to test his resolve, Christopher agreed without hesitation.
After ending the call, Christopher dialed. Sophiaâs number.
At that moment, Sophia was seated at the dining table with others, and the atmosphere was less tense than before.
When the phone rang, Sophia answered quietly.
Upon hearing Christopherâs voice/she was tempted to hang up, but he quickly spoke up.
âMiss Martinez, please donât cause trouble for Fanny. She was unaware of our relationship at the time!â Although Sophia did not put the call on speakerphone, Christopherâs words were loud enough for everyone to hear.
âYouâre lying-â Sophiaâs expression darkened, ready to retort, but Christopher abruptly ended the call.
Chapter 362 Men Are Unreliable In the ensuing silence. Angela spoke up. Heâs lying Fanny is fully aware of everything and I can attest to that.â
