<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">The next day, Jared carefully held the breakfast and stood at the door of Sknd. “This is a breakfast worth 1 million dors. He nervously adjusted his suit, then fixed his hair, and then pressed the doorbell with anticipation.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Andrew came downstairs with his hair all messed up. ‘Who came so early this morning?‘ He, his sister, and Charles had all yed cards by midnight, and Yve came backte at night. They had eaten ate–night snack before sleeping.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">After opening the door, Jared put on his signature smile. “Hello, Y…” Midway through, seeing it was Andrew, his smile disappeared immediately, his tone turned gloomy, and he looked inside. “Ah, it’s you. Where are Jeremiah and Yvette?”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Andrew leaned casually against the door, his blue slippers shy What’s with his face changing so quickly when he sees me?’ “Hey, Jared, are you that disappointed to see me?”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Jared nodded at Andrew. “Not just disappointed, very disappointed.”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">When the two wanted to say more, Charles came down the stairs, seeing the two arguing at the door, chose to ignore them and sat on the dining chair.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">After Jared entered with the breakfast, he was quite reserved. After all, this was Jeremiah’s home, and among thesepound kids, except for Andrew, who else had been here?</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Andrew noticed Jared’s difort and patted his shoulder. “Bro,e sit. Jeremiah and Yvette will probablye down soon, they were both too tiredst night.”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Jared hadn’t even taken a sip before choking on it. ‘What is Andrew talking about? What does it mean that the two were too tiredst night? Can I even hear this?‘</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Charles calmly picked up a piece of bread, ignoring the outside world, focused solely on his breakfast, because from his observation, Jared was likely as unintelligent as Andrew.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Yvette and Jeremiah came down from upstairs, and as soon as they appeared, Jared immediately stood up from his chair, crossing his hands together, a very standard weing gesture.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Jared looked at the two powerful figures approaching, stammered as he tried to greet them, and in his nervousness caused a big mistake. “Jeremiah, Yvette, Merry Christmas!” As soon as he said it, Jared wanted to die. ‘So embarrassing, and in front of Jeremiah and Yve, I wish I could just crash into a wall and die now!‘</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Yvette sat down on the chair, nced at the nervous, sweating Jared. ‘Am I that scary? What is he so nervous and scared about?‘ Yvette said. “Have a seat.”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Jared scratched his head, sat down, then shyly ced the oatmeal with savory toppings and shrimp ravioli he bought in front of Yvette. He had watched her livestream yesterday, and now he had definitely be Yvette’s fangirl. Jared said. “Sister–inw, I specially bought this for you.”</font></font>
The matter where Andrew scammed Jared out of 1 million dors was already known to Jeremiah. He nced at Andrew, who was enjoying his oatmeal, and in a hoarse voice said. “Give the 1 million dors back to Jared.”
Upon hearing this, the oatmeal in Andrew’s hand didn’t taste good anymore. ‘So not only did my hard–earned 1 million not arrive, but I also have to take out 1 million from my own pocket to return to Jared. I’m losing big on this deal!‘ Andrew could only nod tearfully. “Understood, Jeremiah.”
Jared sat aside, not expecting happiness toe so quickly.
Jeremiah said to Jared. “Have some more before you leave.”
Jared swore this was the gentlest he’d ever seen Jeremiah.
At the dining table, Jeremiah naturally spread strawberry jam on the bread, then poured a cup of hot milk and handed it to Yvette, Charles and Andrew were used to it, Jeremiah’s being so considerate to Yve was nothing new for them, they were indifferent as it had happened too many times. Only Jared watched this scene with wide eyes. ‘Oh my god… I can actually see this side of Jeremiah in my lifetime, I have no regrets even if I die.
Andrew poked the dazed Jared. “Eat, what are you staring at?”
Jared. “Oh… Oh, I’m eating now.”
After finishing the meal, the group returned to the living room. Yvette found afortable spot to nestle into the sofa, loungingzily, not holding herself properly, with her eyes drooping, fiddling with her phone.
Jeremiah had just had a phone call and was outside taking it.
Andrew turned on the TV, casually switched to a news channel.
“ording to reliable information received this morning, a man from Ybau jumped from a rooftop at a three–way intersection, dying a gruesome death. His body waspletely torn apart, and he is currently without breath. Betrico Police Station is verifying the identity of the deceased, initially suspecting this person to be Robin, who participated in yesterday’s chess exchangepetition. Our station will continue to follow and report on this incident.”
The remote in Andrew’s hand ttered to the ground. He turned abruptly to look at Yvette, who was on the sofa ying with her phone without even lifting her head, his tone panicked. “Yvette, Robin is dead!”
Charles also looked at Yvette, his eyes clear. ‘Robin diedst night, and the instructor came back in the middle of the night. It’s quite a coincidence, if the instructor killed Robin, it must be because Robin did something to anger him.‘
Yvette heard Andrew and didn’t take her eyes off her phone, her voice indifferent. “Hmm.”
Andrew swallowed, recalling that Yvette came backtest night. “The dark and windy night is perfect for murder! Who else besides Yvette could have killed Robin? This is really exciting!’
Jared looked dumbfounded. ‘Although Robin’s death is quite unexpected, why are they all looking at Yve? What does she have to do with it?‘
Jeremiah entered holding his phone, saw the news on TV, nced at everyone’s reactions, expressionless, and sat down on the sofa.
Andrew repeated to Jeremiah. “Jeremiah, Robin is dead.”
Jeremiah already knew. The call earlier was from the military district. It was confirmed the deceased was Robin. Although he died from falling off a rooftop, the Ybau side still wants to hold onto it and make some points. The body has been sent for autopsy, and now the Ybau side suspects intentional murder, but everything depends on the autopsy results, letting the facts speak.
Jeremiah wrapped his arm around Yvette’s waist, squeezed her gently, his voice deep. “Can it be found out?”
Yvette looked up, her eyes clear, raised an eyebrow, and curled her lips. This man never says a useless word. “No, no one can find out.”
Hearing this, Jeremiah’s eyes were full of smiles. “This youngdy’s tactics are truly unpredictable!” “Hmm, the swordsmanshippetition is at four in the afternoon, are you going to the scene?”
Xyette shook her head. “Not going.” Apetition without suspense is not worth watching
Jeremiah squeezed her fingertips, very soft and tender, then lowered his head. Whispered in her car. Alright, I’ll handle it quickly, and make osso buco for you when I get back.”Belongs to ? n0velDrama.Org.
Yvette nodded. “Okay, I’ll wait.”
The two continued talking on their own, while Andrew and the others could only watch. ‘Are these two showing off their love now? What if it’s found out that Yve killed Robin?‘
In the hotel where the visiting Ybau delegation was staying, room 403, Kaiden stood with a gloomy face, watching the footage ying on the TV.
