Chapter 400 Firmly Outwitted Lord Malcolm

The heavy breaths of the two echoed over the phone line. Bianca sensed his rising anger and

frustration as Malcolm’s breath grew increasingly erratic.

People said that spending enough time with someone allowed one to truly understand them, regardless

of love or hate.

And with Malcolm, Bianca had come to realize just that!

“If there’s nothing urgent, Lord Malcolm, I’ll hang up!”

The emphasis Bianca placed on “urgent” was evident in her tone. It was a subtle reminder to Malcolm

that she was no longer just a number by his side, but was now his sister–in–law.

By hierarchy and tradition, she should address him as Lord Malcolm.

And he… should treat her with the respect she deserves.

On the other end, Malcolm felt even more infuriated after Bianca disconnected the call.

The recent events at the Jarvis family were still fresh in his mind, especially the graceful dance

between Bianca and Zane.

It was undeniable that the most talked–about people were Natalie and Clyde. However, the appearance

of the mysterious seventh lord and his wife also caused quite a stir in Simeria.

As the lights dimmed at Versant Villa, Malcolm’s expression grew darker. He finally stepped

out of his car.

Seeing this, Conrad was alarmed. “Lord Malcolm!!

He exited the car and watched as Malcolm walked inside the villa with an air of coldness.

around him.

What was Malcolm…?

Regardless, this place was Zane’s territory. They also had to consider Bianca’s current status!

Conrad had to admit that everyone had underestimated Bianca before this. Not only did she possess

an indomitable spirit, but she also had a sharp mind. In a short time, she had managed to outmaneuver

Malcolm.

“Lord Malcolm…” Conrad attempted to stop Malcolm. No matter how hateful Bianca was, she now had

a special status. Besides, the Entes family was also going through something special now!

Although there was no clear break between Malcolm and Zane for now, Malcolm would be pushing

their relationship to an end if he did anything here!

“Conrad, do you think our relationship can continue as it’s been?” Malcolm said coldly, just as Conrad

was about to stop him.

It was just a pretense on the surface that Malcolm and Zane got along. After what had happened

tonight… there was no need to keep up the act anymore.

When the butler saw Malcolm approach, he greeted him with respect. “Greetings, Lord

Malcolm!”

“Where are they?”

The butler was stunned at Malcolm’s intimidating gaze but quickly pulled himself together and said,

“Lord Zane has gone out.”

Zane was out?

With that revelation, it became clear that maintaining appearances was no longer necessary.

However, the fact that Zane was still doing something at this hour…

If someone were to tell Malcolm that Zane wasn’t up to something, Malcolm wouldn’t believe.

1. it.

“Zane has gone out? What about his wife?”

The butler hesitated. He stole a glance at the clock, which indicated it was nearly one o’clock.

“Lady Bianca has already retired for the night.”

Summon her!”

The butler fell silent at the demand.

Since Malcolm couldn’t meet Zane, he wanted to see Bianca? At this hour?!

After thinking for a long time, the butler anxiously said, “Lord Malcolm, that… doesn’t sound very

appropriate.”

After all, it was quite late. It didn’t matter why Zane and Bianca got married. It was still a fact that they

were legally husband and wife.

I word got out that Malcolm had met with Bianca at this hour…!

The butler was older, hence he was more considerate about the implications of Malcolm’s visit.

But Malcolm wasn’t in the mood for diplomacy.

He coldly looked into the butler’s eyes and said, “If she doesn’t come down, I’ll go up to her

+25

The butler paled. “I’ll fetch Lady Bianca immediately.”

Malcolm’s assertiveness was well–known among the Entes family members. If he had made up his

mind, he wouldn’t leave until he met Bianca tonight.

He was really a willful man!

The butler felt a massive headache building as he went upstairs.

Inside the room, Bianca was restless. She was fully aware of the impending confrontation.

Just when she thought Malcolm had left, the butler’s voice called out, “Lady Bianca, are you asleep?”

Bianca’s heart skipped a beat when she heard the butler’s voice. Knowing his discretion, she realized

that his visit was urgent.

“What is it?” Her voice, although controlled, betrayed a hint of tension.

When he heard Bianca’s reply, the butler was visibly relieved. He had been afraid that Malcolm would

really barge into Bianca’s room if she wasn’t awake.

If that happened, the matter would only further escalate.

The butler replied, “Lord Malcolm is downstairs waiting for you. He insists on seeing you.”

His tone was unwavering and firm.

A glint of determination flashed in Bianca’s eyes,

It was typical of Malcolm to be so resolute, to carry out his decisions, regardless of warnings.

She had cautioned him repeatedly, but a man like him never took heed.

So, what did this mean?

“Alright, I got it,” she responded.

Switching on the bedside lamp, Bianca got up.

As she donned her coat and descended the stairs, she found Malcolm standing coldly in the hall

Conrad noticed her first.

When he met her eyes, he had to quickly look away.

The moment his eyes met hers, he felt like there was a swirling vortex in her gaze, threatening to draw

him in.

wasn’t just her eyes that were mesmerizing. There was an aura about her.

It was only natural that she had some tricks up her sleeves. If she hadn’t, would she have been able to

outmaneuver Malcolm after two years of silence?

For so many years, Malcolm had been the one to lead others by their nose.

But this time, Bianca had firmly outwitted him.

The instant Malcolm laid eyes on Bianca, a dangerous glint flashed in his cold eyes.

“Butler,” Bianca called out.

“Yes, Lady Bianca?” the butler responded promptly.

“Have you contacted Zane?” She directed her question to the butler but kept her eyes locked

on Malcolm.

The butler hesitated briefl
