Chapter 369_Masked In Nobility: Secrets Of Mrs. Chavez

After La finished speaking, she shot Wyatt a look that was just shy of leaping into his arms. To be honest, Wyatt was her ideal choice. She thought, ‘So what if he is a bit older? He is still elegant and charming!

 At Wyatt’s age, he was already a mayor, and bing a governor was practically within his grasp. She had already looked into it–Wyatt’s family was from Betrico.

 If she could get her hands on him, being a mistress wouldn’t be out of the question. After all, anyone with power and influence was her target.

 Wyatt avoided La’s gaze. He thought, ‘This woman must be crazy. What in the world does she see in me?‘

 Zachary asked, “Yvette, could you tell us what she did?”

 Hearing Zachary’s tone, La felt uneasy. Zachary didn’t sound like he was about to reprimand Yvette at all.

 Yvette looked up and nced at La, who was quietly wiping her tears and acting like a victim. With a daring lift of her eyebrows, she seriously replied to Zachary, “She asked me to help her find a rich and powerful man in Betrico.”

 Hearing this, Wyatt struggled to hold back augh. Seeing Yvette’s deadpan face, it was surprisingly funny to hear her make thatment.

 Zachary rubbed his temples. He really hadn’t expected La, who normally seemed so honest, to show her true colors now. She wanted Yvette to introduce her to some guys. Truly shameless she had no shame saying something like that.

 La was shocked that Yvette actually said it out loud so directly She was flustered for a moment, but luckily, she had strong nerves and quickly regained herposure.

 La quickly exined, “No, that’s not what I meant. I just… I just thought since Yvette knows some promising young men in Betrico, maybe I could meet them and make some friends. It is a misunderstanding, honestly a misunderstanding by Yvette.”

 Anyway, since there was no third person around earlier, as long as she stuck to her story that she never said those words, then it would all be Yvette’s doing – she’d still have a chance.

 Yvette looked at the stubborn La and said calmly, “There’s a camera above your head. Want to take a look?”

 Those light words made La, who had just been denying everything, freeze. Cold sweat started trickling down her back and her hands, resting by her sides, instinctively clenched.

 She never expected the Chambers residence to have a camera at the entrance. Back when she used to hang out with Winona and visit the Chambers, there was no camera. She wondered, ‘Howe they installed one suddenly?‘

 Zachary had been so busy these days that he waspletely frazzled. He even forgot that just a few days ago he installed cameras at the entrance, making it easy to see who was doing what and saying what.

 But he didn’t even need to check; he trusted his daughter wouldn’t stoop telling such a lie.

 Zachary spoke coldly to La, “The camera footage is always avable; if there’s a misunderstanding, we can all take a look and clear it up.”

 La quickly shook her head and said through gritted teeth, “No need, Mr. Chambers, I just remembered something I have to do. I won’t bother you any longer; I’ll be going now.”

 After speaking, La wanted nothing more than to flee the Chambers’s residence at lightning speed in her high heels, ignoring the curious nces from the household staff as she made her hasty exit.

 Wyatt and Zachary watched La’s embarrassed retreat with the same thought, ‘She brought this on herself!

 Wyatt had achieved his goals for the day, showing interest in Yvette and indicating friendliness with the Chambers. It was time for him to leave, as staying longer would only be awkward.

 He thought, ‘The father and daughter haven’t seen each other for so long, they surely have a lot to catch up on.

 Thinking of this, Wyatt said, “Mr. Chambers, Ms. Zeller, it’s gettingte, so I won’t keep you any longer. I’ll visit again another day when the time permits.”

 Yvette nodded and said, “Take care, Mr. Langford.”

 Zachary escorted them to the front gate, only returning to the living room after watching the car drive away. He looked at Yvette sitting on the sofa, his eyes lingering for a moment with a trace of guilt.

 He thought, ‘This child became such an outstanding person in times and ces I wasn’t aware of. How much effort did it take? What hardships did she face as a young girl? Perhaps only she knows.

 Zachary took the fruit tter from the servant and walked over to sit on the couch. He ced the fruit tter in front of Yvette and gently asked, “How long do you n to stay this time”

 Zachary knew Yvette couldn’t be confined by a small town like Seacrity. She had her own vast world, and all he could do in Seacrity was to be her silent support.

 Yvette looked at Zachary. He seemed much older than when she first met him, with hints of gray already showing at his temples.

 “I’m not sure. Maybe two weeks, a month,” Yvette said. Her main reason foring back this time was for her exams at Argrol University.

 Zachary nodded, his voice grew deeper, with a touch of pleading. “Can you promise to stay at home during this time?”

 Meanwhile, La finally spotted her driver by the roadside. Once she got into the car, with no other way to vent her pent–up anger, she yelled and screamed like a crazy woman, even giving the driver a p.

 Over the years, the driver had be ustomed to this. La would always vent her frustrations on those around her. In public, she acted like a refineddy, but no one had a darker heart than La.

 The driver had no choice; he had to endure it for the sake of the high sry.

 La finally let off some steam. She looked at herself in the rearview mirror, her eyes bloodshot. After thinking for a moment, she took out her phone and called a number she hadn’t dialed in a long time.

 As soon as the call connected, La began to cry andin, Winona, where are you? Can youe out? I miss you so much.Content is property ? N?velDrama.Org.

 “My family has been keeping a close watch on me and didn’t let me contact you, but they’ve finally given me some freedom. The moment I got my phone, I called you.

 “How have you been? Can youe out for a while? I really want to see you, is that okay?”

 At the Carter residence, Winona was surprised to receive a call from La. Since her incident, her friends treated her like an outcast, cutting her offpletely. Even La, who used to be her best friend, did the same.

 Winona thought they would remain strangers for the rest of their lives. Unexpectedly, La called, and Winona hoped that maybe La had her reasons.

 Winona pushed Robert off her. She said, “La, it’s not convenient for me right now. How about we meet tomorrow morning at the club we often visit downtown?”

 Seeing that Winona believed what she said, La felt secretly pleased and immediately agreed. “Alright, Winona, see you tomorrow.”

 Winona looked at Robert, who started snoring right after she pushed him aside, feeling a bit disgusted. This old man had exhausted himself with drinking and women. Now that her pregnancy had stabilized, they hadn’t held back when they were together.

 She had already lost Victor’s favor, so she couldn’t afford to lose Robert’s too. For the sake of the baby she was carrying, she had to keep Robert firmly by her side.
