I was the Founding Father of the United States

Chapter 54 People from the Maiden's Family Arrive

After the three of them had breakfast, the Adams brothers changed their clothes and went downstairs.

Faced with Chen Wenbin's ambiguous smile, the two brothers pretended not to see it and instead began to seriously discuss their next move. However, they hadn't been talking for long when the doorbell rang.

To Chen Wenbin's surprise, the first people to arrive at the Courtes residence today were neither his old friend, Benjamin Franklin, the president of PUIC Europe, nor an employee of the East India Company, nor Henry's father, but a blond middle-aged handsome man named Edward Scott and a young handsome man named Sean Scott.

When Diana heard the butler announce the two men's names, she immediately lifted her skirt and hurried to the door, then threw herself into the arms of the handsome middle-aged man!

Chen Wenbin was stunned by this scene, but soon the conversation between Diana and the middle-aged handsome man made him realize that they were Uncle Edward and Cousin Sean, whom Diana had mentioned many times... that is, her family!

This was the first time Chen Wenbin had ever met his girlfriend's family, especially since he had gotten their niece pregnant!

That really sends chills down my spine!

However, his acting skills and body control, honed through long-term training, are now completely at ease. So he walked over naturally, a warm smile on his face, and gently took Diana's hand, reminding her:

"Diane, won't you introduce me?"

"Ah! Darling!" The blonde girl reacted quickly. Suppressing her excitement, she took Chen Wenbin's arm and introduced them earnestly: "This is Uncle Edward and Cousin Sean. They are my closest relatives!"

"Uncle Edward, Sean, this is Robin, my future husband!"

Upon hearing this, the blond, handsome middle-aged man instantly wiped the smile off his face from Diana's, and instead stared at the man in front of him with a scrutinizing and complicated look... This was the bastard doctor that little Diana had praised to the skies in the letter?

Hmph! Black hair and black eyes, somewhat like a Roman, he is indeed very attractive, with fair skin, handsome features, and deep eyes. No wonder he could fool Diana so easily... But the more attractive a person is, the less likely he is to bring her happiness!

He certainly didn't want Diana to repeat Louisa's tragedy!

Meanwhile, Sean Scott, who was half a head taller than his father, stared at Chen Wenbin's handsome face with hostility, as if he was ready to punch him at any moment.

Ok?

What's going on?

Chen Wenbin realized the situation was dire, and before he could speak, Edward Scott said coldly, "Dr. Robin Chen, is that right?"

He nodded quickly, giving a sincere smile: "Hello! Mr. Scott! I'm Robin Chen, you can call me Robin."

"...I'm here to take Diana away!"

Edward Scott didn't waste any words and directly stated his purpose. Then he reached out and pulled the stunned Diana to his side, looking at Chen Wenbin coldly and said, "Young man, the Spencer family sent Diana to North America without my consent... I will settle accounts with that bastard Robert for this!"

I am so grateful to you for saving her life. Here is a Bank of England note with £100 on it, which should be enough to thank you for your help!

As for your deal with the Spencer family, it has nothing to do with Diana!

As he spoke, he shoved a stack of "white pounds" banknotes into the bewildered Chen Wenbin's hand, and then he and Sean were about to escort Diana away.

"...Wait! Uncle Edward!"

Before Chen Wenbin could react, Diana stopped in her tracks and said anxiously, "I can't leave!"

"...Why?"

Edward, seeing that he couldn't pull her away, frowned and said painfully, "Diane, have you forgotten your mother?"

He pointed at Chen Wenbin and said, "This bastard is no different from Robert!"

He's just deceiving you with sweet words! He may be a wealthy inventor and the doctor who saved you, but I'd rather you marry an honest, polite, poor gentleman than be used as a tool for political alliances by the Spencer family, becoming a miserable wife used by nobles and the wealthy to decorate their homes!

He cupped Diana's face in his hands, looked into her eyes, and said earnestly, "You're coming with me now! I swear I'll never let that Spencer bastard bully you again!"

Sean Scott also reassured her, "Diane! Don't be afraid! I'll protect you!"

Seeing how concerned they were about her, Diana felt both touched and helpless, and quickly explained, "Uncle Edward, you've misunderstood! Robin has nothing to do with the Spencer family!"

He and I were truly in love... I was originally engaged to the son of a colonial governor, but he passed away unexpectedly!

Chen Wenbin never expected such a melodramatic thing to happen to him, but in order to prevent his wife's family from taking her away, he quickly said, "Mr. Scott! I swear to God! I am willing to cherish Diana as I would my own eyes for the rest of my life!"

Seeing the excited Diana and the sincere-looking Chen Wenbin, Edward Scott began to doubt his own judgment. He tentatively asked, "...Little Diana, what you wrote in the letter, was it really not just to comfort me?"

"You... I mean, this guy really has nothing to do with them?"

"Yes!" Diana nodded vigorously, then broke free from her cousin Sean, took Chen Wenbin's arm, and explained with a smile, "After Robin saved me from the brink of death, I knew I had found happiness!"

He's considerate and reliable! He can only be my husband!

Edward Scott and his son looked at each other, and it seemed their niece wasn't lying, which made things a little awkward...

"...Ahem!"

Seeing this, Chen Wenbin quickly coughed twice to break the silence and invited, "Mr. Scott! Cousin Sean, let's sit down in the living room and talk!"

"Diana's previous letter may have misled you. I am not a nobleman; I am merely a fortunate inventor and doctor... My reason for sending someone to contact the Spencer family was out of respect for Diana, not because I had struck any deal with them!"

At this point, Henry Coates, who had been watching the show with his arms crossed, interjected with a smile: "Mr. Scott, I can attest to that. I have never seen anyone as lucky as Robin, nor have I ever seen a man and woman who like each other so much."

"That's right! John and I can also testify! Mr. Robin and Miss Diana are truly in love!" Samuel Adams immediately chimed in, vouching for his boss.

Edward Scott did not know the Adams brothers, but he knew the Courtesy family, a family with considerable influence in London, the East India Company, and the Royal Navy.

If Chen Wenbin hadn't been staying at Henry Coates' house, Edward Scott wouldn't have waited until now after receiving Diana's message yesterday; he would have taken her away with his men last night!

The Scott family was no small business; they were able to marry their daughter to Robert Spencer. Today, the Scott family runs one-third of the Silesia ceramics business in the British market.
