After Zachary left with Yvette decisively, Winona convinced Richard to return to his room.

Before he did, he stated, “I’ll make sure Yvette pays for this.”

No one uttered a word, especially Nellie, whose expression of rage and insanity seemed to threaten to engulf her.

Yvette hung her head low in Zachary’s car on the way back to the Chambers residence, eyes closed, seemingly asleep.

Zachary, not wanting to disturb her rest, remained silent. He stole a few glances at her.

He had no idea how to handle his daughter. How would her stubborn nature fit into society? Who would protect her once he was gone!

Zachary suddenly thought of Jeremiah, who had previously appeared at the police station. He wondered if someone from Jeremiah’s background would be interested in Yvette.

He might have some sway if they were in Seacrity, but Jeremiah’s background wasn’t simple. He probably belonged to one of those long-established affluent families in Betrico.

These families greatly valued social status and equal matches, so the more Zachary thought about it, the more troubled he became. He unknowingly let out a gentle sigh.

Yvette slowly opened her eyes, her expression calm and her gaze captivating. She turned and looked at her dad, her voice relaxed. “Why are you sighing?”

Zachary was so absorbed in his thoughts that he didn’t notice Yvette was awake. Her sudden question startled him. “Oh, you’re awake.
