Yvonne had always been someone very good at keeping herself calm and collected, but in front of Joel, she always felt like he could see through everything she was thinking.

The last ten minutes when the assistant was away were the most unbearable ten minutes she had ever experienced.

She could pretend to be flawless in front of everyone, but her eldest brother’s eyes seemed to always be able to see through all her thoughts.

He had deliberately kept quiet and sat there just like that.

It was just a short ten minutes, yet she felt as if a whole year had gone by.

That was why she had so eagerly asked that question when the assistant entered the study, causing herself to expose all of her sneaky little thoughts.

As soon as she spoke, she secretly cursed.

She turned to Joel.

Sure enough, he was looking straight at her.

His usually amicable countenance was sharp and chilly.

Yvonne swallowed hard.

She lowered her head.

The assistant could clearly feel something wrong between the siblings.

He hurriedly lowered his head and replied, “This card was used for the first time in a foreign country five years ago.Although the card registrant hadn’t left any information, it was indeed Ms.Nora Smith who used it that time.”

In other words, although it was an anonymous card, barring any accidents, it was indeed Nora’s.

Yvonne had already been too afraid to speak when Joel was Staring at her just now.

Even though she was astounded, she nevertheless bit her lip and asked, “Did she already know Mr.Hunt five years ago?”

Her words took the assistant by surprise, and he glanced at Joel.

Joel glanced at the door.

The assistant immediately understood.

He lowered his head and quietly left the study.

When he was exiting, he even thoughtfully closed the door for them.

As soon as the door closed, Joel’s gentle but cold and mellow voice reached Yvonne.

“Are you hoping very much that this card belongs to Justin? Why?”

Yvonne:”!!”

She looked up in a panic.

“N-no…Let me explain, Joel.That’s not…”

But when Yvonne’s eyes met Joel’s calm but mocking gaze, she shut up.
