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

At the office. Clifford had just returned from the military base and had only taken a few minutes to rest after a meeting. He hadn’t even settled into his chair yet when he got a call from Aurora. This was unusual since she knew he was busy, and she never called him during work hours.

After answering the call, the sound of Aurora’s sobbing made Clifford’s face instantly darken.

Having known Aurora for so many years, Clifford was more aware of her strength than anyone. Aurora had never cried

before.

Clifford’s usual composure was nowhere to be found. He asked urgently, “What’s wrong, sweetheart?”

Looking around at the trembling women opposite her, Aurora said, “Come to the police station,” Then she hung up.

Clifford quickly got dressed, had a car ready, and rushed to the police station. He was nervous the entire way, growing more anxious with each unsuccessful call to Aurora.

At the dessert shop, the deputy chief of the Betrico police station, Darnell, had arrived this time. With an expressionless face, he led over a dozen officers storming into the dessert shop,

As soon as they entered, they spotted Aurora and Yvette coming out of a private room. Their appearance was striking, to say the least, One was someone he knew very well, and the other amazed him with her beauty. It was hard not to notice these two standing together right away. Then he noticed the group of wealthy ladies standing together, looking injured

Darnell immediately put away his serious expression and walked over. He went straight past everyone to stand in front of Aurora. His attitude was pleasant, completely different from how he looked when he first walked in. “Oh my, isn’t this Mrs. Chavez? What brings you here? What’s happening?”

Aurora knew Darnell. She didn’t waste words and told him directly. “Oh. Just a group of gossiping women who unfortunately got caught by me. I went too easy on them. And now you see how it is. No one knows who called the police. Let’s go.”

Darnell could pretty much guess what happened from that. It must have been that the women across had nothing to do and talked badly about Mrs. Chavez. Aurora must have overheard them and beat them up. Darnell glanced at the group of women opposite, and they indeed looked quite beaten up. They either had bald spots, red handprints on their faces, or ripped clothes.

Aurora’s fighting ability was no joke. She took on ten at once.

Darnell found that women could indeed be scary. They couldn’t even open a bottle cap normally. Yet, when it came to fighting, they were all like warriors. No wonder the rumor was that Clifford was henpecked. Now he believed it.

thoughtless enough to call the police over something so minor. How about we handle this privately? After speaking, Darnell glanced over at the group of women. His attitude was noticeably less cordial compared to when he spoke to Aurora, looking very businesslike. He cleared his throat. “Ladies, what do you think? Do you want to settle this privately or publicly? If privately, we can discuss it here. If publicly, please come with me to the police station and have your family members come over to
