Cross My Tigress Face the Wrath

Chapter 751

Seeing the sudden spark in Yvonne Quinn's eyes, Chloe knew for sure that Hull had something she desperately wanted.

Chloe cleared her throat. "You know, Mr. Miguel's got quite the stash of treasures. Especially his knack for mechanical gadgets."

Over the years, plenty of folks had tried to get a peek at Hull's mechanical secrets, but he never taught anyone.

The moment Hull's inventions came up, Yvonne couldn't help but grumble, "You really think he'd hand over that book about his inventions just because of Susanna Tucker?"

Seriously, would he? That didn't sound like him at all.

Men like that—what else do they do besides play mind games with women?

Yvonne just didn't buy that Hull would give up something that valuable for the sake of being noble.

Chloe shrugged. "Why not give it a shot?"

Yvonne: "!!!"

Um...

Was that even safe to try? What if she ended up empty-handed and her brother gave her a lecture? That would be a disaster.

"I'll poke around and see what I can find out. You get ready, just in case."

"Got it."

Chloe knew exactly what to prep for. The island they were on was off the grid- super hidden.

She hated moving places. If you're going to hide, you might as well do it right.
