Facade of Love

Chapter 338 It’s Snowing

Idris finished organizing the first aid kit, glanced at me, and a faint smile tugged at the corner of his lips. “You’re clever.”

I rolled my eyes, not in the mood for jokes at a time like this. I looked at him, a bit exasperated, and asked, “What are you planning to do?”

He shook his head. “The Youngs have a history spanning a hundred years, and they’ve hindered many people’s paths. There are countless who would like to eliminate us. I can’t be sure of the mastermind behind this.”

That seemed to be the case.

Ring, ring… Suddenly, the phone in the room rang. Both Idris and I were taken aback for a moment before realizing that it was my phone.

Answering the call, it was Charlie on the line. I had not spoken yet when he asked, “Yvette, are you okay?”
