Chapter 395_Masked In Nobility: Secrets Of Mrs. Chavez

cas had a pretty good impression of Zoe. She had a pure and clear look in her eyes, with no ambition or greed, which was quite rare in today’s society.

 Yvette nodded and said, “Go get the financial reports from the Chambers Group for the past three years from downstairs and reorganize them.”

 Zoe was a bit surprised. She wondered, ‘Is this something a secretary does? Can I handle documents of this level?‘

 Lucas understood that Yvette nned to give Zoe a critical position. Looking at Zoe, who was still stunned, he advised Zoe, “Go on, organize them well, and give them to Ms. Zeller.”

 Zoe nodded excitedly, bowed to Yvette, and then headed downstairs to the finance department.

 Lucas ced the coffee on the table and was about to leave.

 Yvette stood by the window, sunlight streaming through therge ss and hitting her face. Her long, delicate eyshes, like gossamer curtains, cast a shadow, adding a touch of softness to her stunning profile.

 Lucas was momentarily taken aback by what he saw. People said Yvette resembled Lilian, but truth be told, Yvette was even more beautiful. Lilian was gentle, while Yvette was strong–willed; their personalities couldn’t be more different.

 Yvette’s gazended on Lucas, who quickly snapped back to his senses. He bowed slightly and said, “Ms. Zeller, here is your favorite coffee.”

 Yvette sat back in her chair, pressed her lips together, and said softly, “Thank you.”

 Lucas chuckled; certainly, making a cup of coffee didn’t warrant a thank you from Yvette.

 Lucas continued, “Ms. Zeller, if there is nothing else, I’ll step out for now. I’ll be right outside the door if you need me.”

 Yvette waved her hand and said, “When the visitors arrive, bring them in directly; there is no need to hold them up.”

 Lucas was surprised, his eyes reflecting some puzzlement. He thought, ‘Is someoneing? Who would visit at this time?”

 Five minutester, when Lucas saw Warron and Nelson appear from the top–floor elevator, he was taken aback. He wondered how Yvette could know these two woulde.

 Warron and Nelson never got along, but now they seemed to be getting along quite well. Nelson was the typical smiling fox, and Warron was smiling like a blooming flower, which was a festivity.

 Nelson told Lucas, “Mr. Osborne and I want to meet with Ms. Zeller.”

 Lucas stood straight and nodded calmly. He said, “Come with me.”

 Nelson and Warron exchanged a look and went into the office with Lucas.

 As soon as the three entered the office, they saw Yvette seated in a chair, toying with an intricately designed silver gun.

 Nelson and Warron stood frozen, unable to take a step. They thought, ‘How does she have a gun?‘

 In Clusia, people weren’t allowed to have guns; even for shooting practice, one must go to special facilities. Gun control was very strict and not something to mess around with.

 Both Nelson and Warron had visited gun clubs regrly, so they were sure that the silver gun in Yvette’s hand was real because fake guns wouldn’t have such authentic quality.

 Nelson and Warron broke into a cold sweat as they suddenly realized that Yvette was definitely not someone to mess with

 Nelson began to panic. He looked at his watch. He thought, “There are five minutes before the act starts. Should I back out now?‘

 In the end, Nelson gritted his teeth. There was no turning back now. He thought, ‘So what if she has a gun? Would she really kill to shut me up?‘

 Yvette looked up to Nelson and Warron standing by the door. She raised her eyebrows slightly, exuding indifference. She crossed her legs and leaned back into the chair.

 She spoke slowly, “Got something to say?”

 Nelson and Warron had already made a n before they arrived, but under Yvette’s icy gaze, their minds went nk for a moment. It wasn’t until Lucas called out to them that they snapped back to reality.

 Their faces turned red with embarrassment. They were actually intimidated by someone younger.

 Nelsonposed himself and stepped forward, saying, “Ms. Zeller, we just thought we’de by for a chat since it’s quiet. By the way, did you personally decide on theyoff list?”

 Warron nodded along. He also had a messy morning.

 Yvette spun her chair around. Then, she casually unwrapped a piece of candy and popped it into her mouth. Curling her lips, she tilted her chin and answered, “Yes, I did.”

 Nelson and Warron were furious with Yvette’s behavior. They were filled with resentment but could only swallow theirints. Seeing Yvette’s arrogant demeanor, they felt utterly powerless against her.

 However, they weren’t just here to ask pointless questions; they were stalling, worried Yvette might leave and ruin their uing n.

 Yvette nced at Nelson and Warron whose minds were clearly not in the office, she curled her lips into a smirk, thinking, ‘Aren’t they starting yet? I’m about to drift off

 Lucas watched Nelson and Warron struggle to make conversation. His eyebrows nearly pinched together. He wondered if these two were so bored that they were resorting to such pointless chatter.

 Lucas nced at Yvette again, bing more confused. He thought, ‘When did Ms. Zeller be so patient? And now, sh. takes the time to stand here listening to these two bicker.’

 The constant chatter was giving Lucas a headache. He wondered why everyone was acting so strange today. The door suddenly swung open as he tried to make sense of it all.

 Zoe rushed in, struggling to catch her breath. “Ms. Zeller, there’s an emergency,” she said, “Aid–off employee from the finance department is on the rooftop saying if Chambers Group doesn’t provide a satisfying exnation, he’s going to jump.”

 Upon hearing this, everyone in the room reacted differently. Lucas was shocked, while Nelson and Warron appeared tense, yet a bit of satisfaction flickered in their eyes.

 Yvette was the only one who stayed calm. Watching Zoe take deep breaths, she casually said, “Go get a drink of water.”

 Zoe was confused. She thought, ‘Does having a drink of water matter at a time like this?‘

 Zoe was extremely anxious. If a tragedy urred because of theyoffs right after Yvette joined Chambers Group, it would ruin her reputation.

 Nelson, looking equally worried, said to Yvette, “Ms. Zeller, this is serious. We can’t take it lightly. If the person jumps and daes, even if we’re in the right, we wouldn’t be able to exin ourselves.

 “Especially since it’s rted toyoffs, the media would definitely exaggerate the story.”

 Warron quickly chimed in, “Ms. Zeller, Mr. Hegan is right. Let’s go and check it out. You’re the head of the Chambers Group. our guiding light in times like this.

 “We can’t afford a tragedy. If someone loses their life here, no money would restore thepany’s reputation.”

 Lucas’s face turned more serious. This situation hade up too suddenly. If an employee really did jump because of the Layoffs announced by Yvette, it would indeed be difficult to handle.

 Lucas stepped forward and said, “Ms. Zeller, let me handle this matter.”

 Lucas made up his mind; if anything happened, he would risk everything to protect Yvette. He must ensure her reputation stayed untarnished.

 Nelson and Warron were surprised by this unexpected development. They thought. What happened to Lucas? He is attempting to take Yvette’s ce as the loyalpanion. Such loyalty!”Content from N?velDr(a)ma.Org.

 Nelson couldn’t allow Lucas to ruin their ns. He said. “Ms. Zeller, if you don’t step in, this issue might remain unresolved.”
