Chapter 477_Masked In Nobility: Secrets Of Mrs. Chavez

Yvette kept her eyes half–lowered as she stared at the three people in front of her, her gaze settling on Jeremiah. Her sharp eyes narrowed, the chill deepening in her gaze.

 Seeing Yvette like this, Rodney immediately stiffened. He knew this was the sign of her anger. Yvette didn’t lose her temper easily, so Rodney could tell Jeremiah mattered to her.

 Emmett rubbed his nose awkwardly, Jeremiah had pulled this stunt, but he really hoped Yvette wouldn’t actually be mad because if she was, Jeremiah would suffer.

 Yvette watched Emmett’s subtle gesture, raising an eyebrow. Her eyes were as dark as the night. “Come in” she said, turning on her heel and heading toward the room.

 Seeing how distant Yvette was, Emmett’s anxiety grew. He thought, ‘Could she have figured something out? That shouldn’t be possible. Even the world’s top doctors wouldn’t be able to notice anything without feeling Jeremiah’s pulse, right?

 Emmett and Rodney hurriedly helped Jeremiah onto the bed, then stood obediently to one side. Yvette sat down on the chair, her expression indifferent as she ced her hand on Jeremiah’s wrist to feel his pulse. It was weak, indeed the pulse of someone dying.

 Samantha, Charles, and Eagle King also stepped forward, their eyes widening as they took in the sight of Jeremiah lying on the bed, all clearly shocked.

 Eagle King changed into a pair of blue shorts, his usual casual demeanor reced by a rare seriousness as he looked at the barely conscious Jeremiah on the bed. “What happened in thest half hour? Rodney, how did this happen to Jeremiah? Samantha’s face was equally solemn. She knew that if something really happened to Jeremiah, it would be a disaster.

 Rodney raised his head, his gaze shifting between the people in front of him and Yvette who was still checking Jeremiah’s pulse with a neutral expression.

 He anxiously exined, “I swear I don’t know how he ended up like this. I just bumped into him, and he fainted! I didn’t do anything else. I had no idea Mr. Chavez was so fragile. If I had, I would’ve been more careful,”

 Rodney was frustrated as he spoke. After all, no one would have guessed that someone who looked as tough as Jeremiah turned out to be so weak.

 It wasn’t just Rodney–Charles, Eagle King, and Samantha were all equally shocked. If what Rodney said was true, that he merely bumped into Jeremiah and he copsed, that would be ridiculous.

 Emmett, overhearing Rodney’s description of Jeremiah, was dumbfounded. He thought, ‘Fragile? I couldn’t imagine that anyone would describe Jeremiah that way.”

 Eagle King and the others still weren’t fully convinced by Rodney’s exnation. Between the fact that Jeremiah had copsed from a mere bump and the possibility that Rodney was lying, they were more inclined to believe that Rodney was hiding something.

 Eagle King knew how much Jeremiah meant to Yvette. With a serious tone, he stared at Rodney and said, “This isn’t the time to lie. What exactly did you do? Tell us the truth.”

 Rodney immediately shook his head, his expression desperate. I’m telling the truth! I swear, if I’m lying, may Yvette never speak to me again for the rest of my life.”

 Seeing Rodney swear on Yvette, Eagle King was sure that he wasn’t lying, but the situation was still bizarre. From the moment he first met Jeremiah, he knew his ancientbat power was profound. He couldn’t possibly pass out from a simple bump.

 Eagle King was also confused, wondering what exactly had gone wrong.

 Charles, still eyeing Jeremiah’s unconscious form, turned to Emmett and asked, “Did he pass out as soon as you got there?”Content provided by N?velDrama.Org.

 Samantha and Eagle King also looked at Emmett, who suddenly felt the weight of their gazes. Reluctantly, he nodded and replied, “Yeah, when I arrived, Jeremiah had already passed out”

 Samantha kept staring at Emmett’s face. She thought, ‘There is something off about this. Why is Emmett so calm? Shouldn’t he be more shaken up?‘

 Yvette looked at Jeremiah on the bed with a faint smile, her eyes carrying a trace of yful indifference.

 Samantha stepped forward and, in a soft voice, asked, “How is Jeremiah now, Yvette? How did he suddenly copse just from a bump from Rodney?”

 Samantha’s question mirrored what everyone was thinking. Yvettezily lifted her gaze, her face remained cold andposed. Then she casually replied, “His pulse is weak. You guys can leave now. I need to administer acupuncture.”

 Samantha, Eagle King, Charles, and Rodney all nodded. Emmett, feeling a bit awkward, said, “Thank you for this, Yvette.” Yvette’s eyes were half–closed as she fixed her gaze on Emmett, though there was a deeper meaning in her eyes. She said softly, “Thank YOU.”

 Emmett froze, his heart sinking. He thought, ‘What did that even mean? Come on, this has nothing to do with me.’

 As they began to leave, Rodney hesitated, then turned back halfway. He approached the bed where Jeremiahy and said in a guilty voice, “I’m sorry, Mr. Chavez. As long as you can wake up, I swear I won’t fight with you for Yvette anymore.”

 Rodney’s voice cracked slightly as he turned to look at Yvette. He rubbed his fingers and his eyes were red. “Yvette, I’m really sorry.”

 Yvette reached out and gently patted Rodney on his head. “You know my medical skills are good. He won’t die.”

 As soon as Rodney heard this, his face lit up with joy. “I knew it, Yvette. I knew you could save Mr. Chavez!”

 After they left the room, Yvette walked over to Jeremiah and stared at his handsome face. After a long silence, she leaned down, her lips almost brushing his ear as she spoke in a sultry tone, “Keep pretending if you want.”

 Outside the room, Eagle King eyed Rodney up and down, sizing him up. “I never would have guessed you had this much power, kid. Did you really knock out Jeremiah with just a bump?

 Charles and Samantha also turned to look at Rodney. They thought. The kid has a bright future ahead of him. Imagine telling people he knocked out the great Jeremiah with a single bump. That is a story that willst a lifetime!‘

 Rodney pouted and quickly defended himself, looking innocent. I didn’t use any force. It’s just that Mr. Chavez is too weak.”

 Emmett, overhearing this, sighed deeply. He thought, Jeremiah really went to great lengths for Yvette. Now, I’m afraid the phrase ‘fragile‘ is going to stick with him forever.

 Rodney shot Eagle King a re before storming off, throwing a parting eye roll in his direction.

 Eagle King just chuckled indifferently, knowing that he was probably off–sulking somewhere.

 After Rodney left, the corridor was left with only Eagle King, Samantha, Emmett, and Charles. Emmett also seemed ready to leave, but just as he turned, Samantha called out from behind. “Where are you going?”

 Emmett turned around with a deliberately stern face, clearing his throat. “Ah, I’m just heading back to my room. I’m a bit tired.”

 Rodney nced over his shoulder at Yvette’s room on the second floor, his voice muffled with defeat. “Kash, I might have lost my girl.”

 Kash paused for a moment, then replied bluntly, “She never belonged to you.”

 Rodney blinked, his eyes wide in surprise, then stared at Kash in disbelief, feeling upset.

 Kash scratched the back of his head, not knowing What he said wrong.
