Jase’s eyes were sharp as he looked at Yvette, stroking his heard.

He spoke with a voice that held the cold authority of someone in charge.

“Yvette, you’re indeed very clever. If you had stepped in to help me just now, I’d have been disappointed. The Chavez family doesn’t need a hostess who’s overly kind and naive, easily trusting others without forming her own opinions. I’m glad you’re so calm and rational.

Yvette’s fingers gently tapped the tabletop in a steady rhythm.

Her usual cool demeanor s howed in her raised eyebrows and the corners of her eyes.

She said. “It won’t happen again.”

Jase had some understanding of her personality.

She had a reputation that didn’t quite match her presence, and meeting her, his granddaughter–in–law, felt like meeting a thorny rose.

Yet, he couldn’t deny that there was something impressive about her. Only those with real talent could afford a temper

Someone like her was truly suited to be the hostess of the Chavez family.

Jase wasn’t upset by her words. Instead, he paused and switched the topic.

He muttered, Jeremiah really has a great taste, doesn’t he? How did he manage to win you over? My grandson doesn’t have the best personality or charm and isn’t great at–making girls laugh. Besides inheriting my handsome looks, how did he catch your eye?”

Yvette’s eyes were expressionless. Her usual laziness was apparent as her lips curled into a mischievous grin.

She glanced past him. With a light and slow voice, she asked, ‘Is it strange that I have a crush on him?”

Jase cleared his throat and was about to say something when a familiar, cold voice interrupted. “Grandpa, what is strange?”

Jase’s face froze, and his back straightened, as an icy chill swept over him.

That was when he realized he had been outsmarted by the girl

Emmett was with Jeremiah. The grandpa was caught talking badly about his grandson! It was awkward.

The thing was that neither the grandpa nor the grandson were average people. One was a marshal in Clusia, and the other was a Major General.

If that wasn’t handled well, it could easily turn a family conflict into a political scandal.

The girl was really tough. It was totally a situation to avoid!

Jase turned around and gave Jeremiah a warm, yet nervous, look.

“Oh hey, grandson, how did you get back so fast?” he said.
