Chapter 441_Masked In Nobility: Secrets Of Mrs. Chavez

Yvette stepped out of the bathroom, and Jeremiah, who had been sitting in a chair on the phone, immediately focused his gaze on her as she appeared.

 As Yvette reached for a towel to dry her hair, Jeremiah stretched out his hand from behind her, taking the towel from her grasp.

 Jeremiah wrapped his arms around her waist, his thin and neatly ironed white shirt casually unbuttoned at the cor, outlining his tall figure. His legs were long and straight beneath him.

 He sighed softly and said, “Let me do it for you.”

 Yvette turned to face him, raising an eyebrow, her eyes sparkling with yful irreverence. “Okay.”

 Jeremiah ran his fingers through her soft hair. As his gaze identally fell on the small scar on her left little finger, he paused for a moment. His voice turned serious as he asked, “How did you get this scar?”

 Yvette tilted her head slightly, tugging at his cor as she tilted her head back with moist eyes. Unconcerned, she replied, “When I was seven, they threw me into a Colosseum. A wolf bit me, but I chopped off its head with my own hands.”

 Jeremiah’s hand, holding the towel, suddenly tightened, and a flicker of anger shed in his eyes. “Which colosseum? Who did this to you?”

 Yvette inhaled softly and her voice remained as cool and calm as ever. “I killed the person and burned the colosseum.” Jeremiah’s murderous intent gradually subsided as he stared at Yvette. His eyes filled with affection. He reached out, pulled her by the back of her neck, intertwined his fingers in her hair, and kissed her deeply. His broad, solid frame enveloped herpletely.

 In the dark, he kissed Yvette to try to warm up her cold lips. Having nowhere to retreat, she lifted her gaze to meet his and leaned in to kiss him back.

 Jeremiah’s body stiffened for a moment. He picked her up and pressed her against the column behind them. Then he bent down again, iming her lips in another fierce kiss. Their lips met, breaths mingled, eyes closed in the shared moment.

 In the middle of the night, Jeremiah suddenly woke up. Looking down at Yvette in his arms, he ced a soft kiss on her temple, holding her tightly. His expression was filled withplexity.

 He couldn’t help wondering how much danger she had faced throughout her life to reach where she was today. He couldn’t bear to think about it because the thought alone made his heart ache.

 The next day, Yvette returned to school with Andrew and Bonnie. Andrew went to the library for his shift, and Bonnie headed to ss.

 Yvette went directly to Simon’s office. Simon, sittingfortably in his chair, had be ustomed to Yvette’sid–back demeanor. Her request for time off didn’t faze him much. After all, it had been a challenge just to get her back for a test.

 Simon asked, “How long do you n on taking off this time? Is it okay to ask where you’re headed?”

 Simon’s inquiry wasn’t to pry into Yvette’s personal business. He was just showing his care for her. After all, James from Betrico called him regrly to ask about Yvette’s whereabouts. It wouldn’t do for him to bepletely in the dark.

 Yvette lifted her gaze, her fine eyebrows arched slightly as she replied coolly, “I’m heading to Voraxia, but I’m.not sure when.”

 Simon spat out his tea, spraying it all over the table as he began coughing uncontrobly.

 Simon stared at Yvette disbelief. “What did you say? Are you going to Voraxia? You, a girl, going there? It’s too dangerous.”

 Yvette nced at Simon, her tone indifferent as she replied, “I’ll be going with Jeremiali.

 Simon froze. He thought, ‘Is this the point? The problem isn’t that you’re going with Jeremiah, but that you’re heading to one of the most dangerous areas in the world. You could die there.

 Simon shook his head disapprovingly, his tone earnest. “Even if you’re going with Jeremiah, it’s still dangerous, Yvette. Can’t you reconsider? What could be so important that you need to go to such a ce?”

 Yvette responded slowly to Simon who looked worried, “It’s about a case, Mr. Sundend, and I have to go.

 Simon looked at Yvette in silence, then let out a resigned sigh. He knew her well enough to understand that there was no stopping her. He thought that if James learned that, he would probably be worried about Yvette.

 As Yvette prepared to leave, she added, “Please don’t tell anyone in Betrico.”

 Simon paused for a moment before nodding. That was exactly what he was thinking.

 Simon escorted Yvette to the school gate, and along the way, they encountered many students who greeted them warmly.

 Simon’s approachable nature was well–known on campus, which made the students treat him with great respect. As soon as they saw Yvette with him, they were even more excited, eagerlying up to greet her one by one.

 Simon nced at Yvette, noticing that her presence seemed to be drawing more attention than his. Usually, it wasn’t this lively around him.

 At the school gate, Simon couldn’t help but keep giving Yvette reminders, urging her to be cautious and stay safe.

 Yvette stood quietly, listening attentively to Simon’s advice without a hint of impatience. It wasn’t until Jeremiah arrived to pick her up that Simon finally stopped talking.

 With a polite smile, Yvette said, “Goodbye, Mr. Sundend.”

 Simon waved his hand, watching her get into the car. It wasn’t until the car had driven far away that he turned to leave.

 He thought, ‘Yvette is no ordinary person. How could a ce like Argrol University hold her back?‘ He had a feeling that the trip to Voraxia might be the catalyst for her to do something truly earth–shattering.

 Once Yvette got into the car, she noticed Jeremiah sitting in the backseat and asked casually, “What are we having for dinner today?”

 Jeremiah gave her fingers a gentle squeeze, a hint amusement flickering in his eyes.

 Emmett, who had been listening to their conversation, couldn’t help but get excited. After all, the meals that Jeremiah made were absolutely delicious.

 Turning to Emmett, Jeremiah instantly resumed his usual cold demeanor and said in a low voice, “Let’s head to the supermarket.”

 Emmett immediately pressed the elerator, speeding towards the supermarket, his eagerness palpable.

 Emmett and Jeremiah were greeted warmly by the vegetable vendors as soon as they stepped into the supermarket. Jeremiah looked at the bags of vegetables in his hands, noticing that they had received more than they had actually bought. What was even more ridiculous was that one of the vendors asked if Jeremiah had a girlfriend and whether he would be interested in bing a son–inw. She said that if he was interested, she would even buy him a vi.

 Emmett was stunned, thinking, ‘Are the vendors so rich these days?‘ He suddenly recalled a saying that had circted internationally–it wasn’t capitalists who took down Walos Street but rather, the middle–aged women from Clusia.

 Now, Emmett finally understood what that saying meant. He thought, ‘Look at Jeremiah! Those women are offering him a vi just to try to make him their son–inw. When would I ever get such a good opportunity? I wish I was as handsome av him!‘

 As Emmett went back to the vi and carried the bags of vegetables inside, he bumped into Samantha, who wasing down the stairs.

 Samantha’s eyes immediately lit up when she saw the vegetables in Emmett’s hands. After all, Jeremiah’s cooking was so amazing, and it was better than a five–star chef’s.

 In a sh, Samantha ran down the stairs. “What’s going on, Emmett? Is Jeremiah cooking again?” She couldn’t believe what she saw.

 Emmett nodded. “Yeah, Yvette asked Jeremiah to cook again tonight.”Content is ? by N?velDrama.Org.

 Samantha happily nodded. She had known all along that following Yvette meant enjoying a feast every day.
