Masked In Nobility: Secrets Of Mrs. Chavez by Selina Gorges

In the Chavez family’s old manor, Jase Chavez’s personal guard, Yusef, entered the room.

He saw the elderly man sitting up straight in his chair, energetic and looking sharp in a suit.

Adjusting his clothes, he came in and bowed politely before speaking.

He said, “Mr. Jase Chavez, Mr. Jeremiah Chavez’s girlfriend just arrived in Betrico. Our staff reported she’s already at Skyland. Jeremiah has returned to the military base because the deputy commander has military affairs that require his immediate attention. Emmett went with him, so Ms. Zeller is the only one left at Skyland now.”

Even though Jase was already eighty years old and his hair was turning gray, he remained strong and full of vitality, showing no signs of weakness.

Jase was one of the few who had come through the war-torn era with substantial military achievernents, and he was among the few elderly from those times still alive.

His status throughout Clusia was indisputable.

Therefore, even at this age, those in power still hoped he wouldn’t retire just yet, because with Jase around, stability was assured

Jase lifted a cup of coffee and took a sip. It was his favorite blend Grandos, “Is there any update on Clifford?”

Yusef nodded and stood respectfully to the side. He said, “Mr. Jase Chavez, Mr. Clifford Chavez doesn’t seem affected too much, but Aurora got quite animated. She was up early bustling around. I heard…

He wasn’t sure if he should say the rest.

Jase paused for a moment and lifted his head, his gaze falling on him with a touch of authority in his voice. “Hmm? What’s wrong?” he asked.

Yusef quickly continued, “Mrs. Chavez prepared a whole table of dishes that Mr. Jeremiah Chavez and his girlfriend like, and Mr. Clifford Chavez got a bit jealous. Aurora gave him a piece of her mind and it seemed she wasn’t satisfied. Now, Clifford is trying to make peace, but he’ll probably be sleeping in the study again tonight.”

Yusef’s father was once Jase’s personal guard, and now Yusef took on the same role.

He and Clifford grew up together.

The two had been playmates since childhood.

He knew all about Clifford and Aurora’s relationship and understood their dynamics better than anyone.

Even Jase could hear the gloating and sarcasm in that last comment.

Jase put down his coffee cup and gave him a glance.

He said, “Okay, they will probably be like that for a lifetime. Aurora used to worry herself sick over Jeremiah’s marriage, and now that he has suddenly gotten a girlfriend. She’s probably excited. And Clifford, he’s tough on the outside but soft inside. If he doesn’t care, why does he take a day off to stay home with them today? He’s just pretending not to care, so let them do what they want.”“

Yusef was genuinely happy for the Chavez family
