Chapter 284 

The housekeeper dashed toward Frances’ side. Panting heavily, she asked, “is everything all right, Old Mrs. Yoeger? 

“I’m okay. Let’s go home. I’m tired.” Frances’ face was pale. 

Huh? 

“Okay.” 

The housekeeper was stunned momentarily before helping Frances back to the house, 

Little did they know that Giselle had been observing them from the window on the second floor 

She had a panoramic view of the entire commotion 

Back at the Yoeger residence, Zachary heaved a sigh of relief the moment he saw his daughter stepping into the house. 

The second Nicolette caught sight of her father, she, however, shot him a vicious glare. 

I’m so glad that you’re back, Nicolette!” came Zachary’s greeting, his voice as loving as ever 

What a hypocrite! 

Nicolette had thought that her father genuinely doted on her 

Alas, she finally understood that Zachary had only been making use of her. 

Meanwhile, Zachary had sensed a change in Nicolette’s attitude, 

That flustered him for a bit before he continued, “There’s no need to worry anymore because you’re safe now

Her words caught Zachary by surprise. “Of course I did!” 

Even so, Nicolette simply took her father’s words with a grain of salt. 

“I was panic-stricken the moment you went missing, so I dispatched gazillions of people,” explained Zachary in a heartbeat. “But, you know, I still couldn’t hold a candle to Samuel.” 

Pursing her lips, Nicolette scoffed, “Now I finally see how lousy the Yoeger family is! We’re so inferior to the Macaris that we’re completely under their heel.” 

Zachary felt a twinge of guilt. “It’s my bad. I’m always under the weather, which is why our family hasn’t risen through the ranks for so long.”
