Chapter 209

Stephanie was startled. This was her first time seeing Yvonne come to Breeze Vila. “Yvonne, if you are looking for your brother, he’s at Grandpa’s.

However, there was no response to her question.

She noticed Yvonne standing about 30 feet from the dining table. Yvonne stood there quietly with a hesitant expression as if she was waiting for something.

“Yvonne, what’s wrong?” Stephanie asked, frowning in confusion.

From what she had heard, Yvonne was somewhat introverted and rarely interacted with people. Her current behavior was very unusual.

On second thought, it seemed unlikely that Yvonne had come to Breeze Villa to find her brother. Dominick was usually aloof and seldom approached his sister, and Yvonne was even less likely to bother him.

“Yvonne, are you looking for me?” Stephanie guessed.

Already half–full, Stephanie, no longer interested in her breakfast, stood and walked towards her.

Yvonne’s bright eyes flashed with alarm. “Don’t disturb others while they’re eating. Don’t interrupt. Don’t speak loudly…”

As Stephanie got closer, Yvonne’s lips trembled as she murmured these rules softly.

Seeing how nervous she was, Stephanie stopped, not daring to get any closer.

“Are you waiting for me to finish breakfast?” she asked gently, trying to ease Yvonne’s anxiety.

But Yvonne remained silent.

She seemed uncomfortable with eye contact, keeping her head down. Her long hair covered half her face, slightly flushed with nervousness.

“Should I call Sandra?” Stephanie suggested, feeling at a loss.

She didn’t want to scare her and thought Yvonne might be more comfortable with the household staff.
