Masked In Nobility: Secrets Of Mrs. Chavez by Selina Gorges

James suddenly recalled something Simon had mentioned.

Yvette's relationship with her father didn't seem very good, and her mother had passed away.

James thought. In that case, I have to support her. Oh right, saving up for her wedding. When she marries into the Chavez family, I must give her many gifts. All these years of private savings are finally coming to use. No one can talk behind Yvette's back." Thinking of Jeremiah, James glanced at Michael and felt bitterness. It would be so much better if Michael didn't have autism Meanwhile, Emmett was driving while occasionally glancing at Yvette through the rearview mirror.

He wondered, 'How did Mr. Owens becYvette's grandpa? What's going on?' He was so curious.

Yvette sat in the back seat with her eyes closed, appearing to be asleep.

When Emmett looked back for the fourth time, Yvette suddenly opened her bloodshot eyes and said in a calm voice, "If you've got something to say, just say it." Emmen paused and cautiously asked, "Yvette, how did Mr. Owens becyour grandpa?" Yvette looked at Emmett, squinted her eyes, and showed no expression. Just by chance." Emmett figured she didn't want to talk about it, so he didn't ask further, thinking, "Yvette's good at joking. Who can be so lucky to have a grandpa like James just by chance? It's like winning the lottery!" After dropping Yvette off at Skyland, Emmett left. He still had matters to attend to at the military base.

At midnight, after her shower, Yvette pushed open the bathroom door and cout wearing a loose shirt. Her long, slender legs were as fair as snow. She slightly curled her lips, her cold eyes softening. With lightning speed, she kicked open the door in the middle of the room. The "hidden door Jeremiah had meticulously constructed was opened just like that.

A shadow flashed out from behind the door. Under the bright lights, Jeremiah, dressed in his military uniform, stepped out His high nose, thin lips, and thick eyebrows were revealed. He had a handsside profile and a perfect facial outline.

Yvette fixed her gaze on his eyes and grunted softly, looking casual and cold. In just a few strides, she rushed right towards Jeremiah. Her fist flew straight at Jeremiah ruthlessly in no time.

Jeremiah easily dodged ith a touch of affection in his eyes, though a bit frustrated Yvette's punch definitely held sanger. Jeremiah didn't know when this door was discovered. He only backed away without fighting back.

Half an hour later, Jeremiah swept Yvette into his arms, and Yvette seized the chance to pin him to the bed. She looked down at him. Her gaze swept over every inch of him like a queen inspecting her territory. As her eyes moved, Jeremiah's breathing grew heavier.

Yvette noticed this. Her eyes were deep. Her clothes had been ruled in the fight earlier. A bright light glimmered at her collarbones. She was a blend of seductiveness and innocence. She was captivating yet completely unaware of it..

Jeremiah was beneath her, staring into her eyes and holding back the desire churning inside him. “You want to be on top?" Hearing this, Yveue rolled off him, and Jeremiah casually pulled her back onto his chest. In a flash, their positions shifted. They stood face to face.

Chapter 251 95% Yvette's legs were wrapped around Jeremiah's strong waist. They held each other's gaze intensely, neither willing to give in, In the end, it was Jeremiah who conceded, gently pinching her earlobe. Ile grited his teeth slightly. "Don't temptanymore, or I might not wait until the wedding Yvette raised an eyebrow with a slight, alluring, yet cool smile. She gently pinched his fingers with one hand. "Explain the door to me," she demanded.

Jeremiah paused, pressed his lips, and said calmly, "I just wanted to be nearer to you." After he said this, Yvette was amazed to see that half of Jeremiahs cars had instantly turned red. This was a rather intriguing discovery. She thought, 'So this man is actually shy?" Yvette poked his ear. Jeremiah's body tensed up. With a slightly dazed look, he quickly released Yvette's waist. He took two steps back. Yvette couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Jeremiah's voice was deep, and he seemed a bit unsettled, his chest heaving slightly. "Tll go make you food," he said, his voice slightly shaky.

He turned, pushed open the door, and left, looking like he was making a hasty exit. A soft snort from Yvette sounded from behind him.

Jeremiah quickened his pace as he went downstairs. Once he was in the kitchen, he finally calmed down a bit and lowered his head. He sighed, feeling his resistance to Yvette's charm was weakening Half an hour later, Jeremiah prepared ssimple beef pasta. The plate was filled with beef and just a little bit of pasta. This was authentic beef pasta, completely different from what was sold at the supermarket.

Yvette cdownstairs. She sat on the custom-made dining chair that Jeremiah had bought for her. It was big and soft enough. She could snuggle up in it.

Yvette glanced at the big plate of beef pasta in front of her. It was an impressively generous portion.

Jeremiah changed into his loungewear. Their outfits were almost matching. Anyone could tell they were wearing couple outfits.

Jeremiah casually sat down on the chair next to Yvette. The chair was made of wood, nothing special. Jeremiah gently peeled an orange for Yvette and asked quietly, "Did you meet with James today?" Yvette nodded nonchalantly, not trying to hide anything. "Yeah Jeremiah handed her the peeled orange and said softly, “Did you get a new grandpa by chance?" Yvette bit into the orange. It was a little sour, not her favorite taste. Raising her eyebrows, she looked composed. "Yeah, he's kind of like your grandpa, always putting on an act."

Jeremiah's hand paused for a moment as he peeled the orange. He turned his head slightly to look at Yvette. "These two plamen grew up together, always competing with each other. Even now, they bicker like kids. They worked hard for Clusia when they were young, and now, each tthey meet, they start squabbling. Just like two kids." Yvette put down her fork, took a sip of water, and crossed her legs. She said with a relaxed look, "He's quite an interesting old man. Do you know Michael?"

Jeremiah's eyes darkened. "Michael was a genius when he was young, but then a car accident ruined him. Once at a party. someone pushed him into a river. James banished the person from Betrico. After that, James kept him protected and hardly let him meet anyone.

Yvette tilted her head slightly, her eyes drooped. Her voice was soft and slow. There's a possibility, his autism will be treated, but it's risky. The success rate is only 60 percent. If it doesn't work, his autism may becworse? Jeremiah's bright eyes were locked on Yvette for quite a while. He nodded. "Does James know about this?" Yvette shook her head. "No. 60 percent is too low." Jeremiah chuckled softly, thinking, 'Con. 60 percent is too low? We're they can cure it. Yvette is quite good at showing off, isn't she?' in about autism. Very few X
