Chapter 486 Shanise Wants Status
Shanise’s desire was to establish roots in Jipsdale. The most. effective and quickest way to achieve
this goal was to marry a local scion from Jipsdale.
This was also the aspiration of many young women who had moved to Jipsdale.
Shanise was confident in her beauty, and Brian’s appearance represented an opportunity.
When a person’s background was strong enough, physical appearances and such seemed to hold less
importance.
Therefore, Shanise quickly convinced herself of this idea.
In reality, how could she have known that Brian sought her out merely because of her youthful
appearance and decent looks? That he was merely playing with her? As for marrying into the Russell
family, it would be much more difficult than she had. thought.
Of course, these realizations came later.
All Shanise wished for now was for Maximus to understand her. However, Maximus simply had no
interest in sparing her another glance.
Maximus had already moved on.
“Brother–in–law, I don’t want to argue with her anymore. Let’s
go!”

Chapter 486 Shanise Wants Status
Maximus tugged at Emrys‘ arm as he spoke. However, they then heard Brian snort coldly. “Thinking of
leaving? Did you get my permission?”
Maximus‘ involvement with Shanise was not of utmost
importance. No, what was most important were the words spoken by Emrys earlier. Each sentence
seemed like a knife slicing Brian’s flesh, and after the cut, salt was sprinkled on top.
As a son of the Russell family, how could Brian possibly let them leave so easily?
Unexpectedly, Emrys had no intention of leaving at all. Instead, he laughed and agreed, saying, “You’re
right. How could I just walk away when things are still unresolved? That would be so frustrating!”
Not only did Emrys have no plans to leave, on the contrary, he intended to stay here. More than just
staying, he was planning to stir up some major trouble.
Otherwise, there would have been no point in coming here to
find Brian.
Upon seeing Emrys‘ attitude, a hint of surprise flashed in Brian’s eyes. What gives this young man such
audacity? Is it simply because he’s Lady Lockwood’s man?
Wait a moment…
Suddenly, Brian realized something. His gaze fell on Maximus, and he asked, “What did you just call
him?”

“Brother–in–law. Is there a problem?”
Maximus found himself growing more and more accustomed to addressing Emrys as his brother–in–
law. It had reached a point where it felt odd not to do so.
Brian furrowed his brows, asking, “You’re Lady Lockwood’s younger brother? No, that’s not right. Your
surname is
Youngblood, while Lady Lockwood’s is Lockwood. Are you her sworn brother?”
Since Emrys was Larissa’s man, and Maximus called Emrys his brother–in–law, it suggested that
Maximus and Larissa must share a sibling relationship. Even if they were not related by blood, they
must have acknowledged each other as siblings later on.
Maximus, however, shook his head and said, “No, my sister’s name is Cordelia Youngblood, not Lady
Lockwood.”
As soon as these words were spoken, Brian was elated as he thought he had heard a juicy piece of
gossip.
As it turns out, this Emrys guy is playing both sides! Moreover, one of these sides is the pride of the
martial arts world, a female warrior whom countless men dream of conquering – Lady Lockwood! Who
would believe this?
Upon hearing these words, a surge of jealous rage nearly made Darrell’s eyes bulge out of their

Wait, what about Blanche from the Langford family? This guy is not just two–timing but a three–timing
b*stard!

The most infuriating part is that Lady Lockwood must have known about all these matters, yet she still
willingly became Emrys‘ woman!
Darrell longed to prepare a stew using Emrys‘ ribs.
Emrys chuckled knowingly and remarked, “Ah, what can I do? It’s not my fault that I possess such
striking looks. The ladies simply adore my style. Unlike some unattractive individuals who solely rely on
their family background to attract insincere women.”
Upon hearing Emrys‘ words, both Brian and Shanise’s expressions instantly changed.
Furious, Brian retorted, “Who do you think you’re calling ugly, you brat?”
“Did I specifically mention you? If you weren’t insecure about. your own appearance, why would you
get so agitated? Look at Darrell beside you. He doesn’t seem bothered at all. This
indicates that he knows I wasn’t referring to him. Simultaneously, it also implies that deep down, he,
too, considers you unappealing.”
