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

As soon as Eleanore spoke, the room fell silent.

Darnell paused too. He thought, ‘If this really gets out of hand, these ladies have connections. Jeremiah doesn’t care. But what about Clifford?’

Jeremiah stood there with a blank face, his cold eyes showing no warmth.

Just then, a stern voice came from the entrance of the dessert shop. “What wouldn’t I allow?”

Everyone’s eyes widened as they turned to the doorway. They saw a man in a black suit standing there with a stern. expression. They were all taken aback. For none of them had ever expected the Director of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Clifford Chavez, to personally appear here.

Clifford was different from Jeremiah. He was an influential figure who appeared frequently on TV news.

Although Eleanore called Clifford’s name with enthusiasm, she had only seen Ethan on TV. Seeing him in person made her too scared to say a word.

Everyone present, except for the Chavez family and Yvette, felt the same shock as Eleanore. He once skillfully debated many at international conferences as the head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, leaving everyone scared.

Darnell felt his body tense up, his heart pounding hard. He thought, ‘First Jeremiah comes, and now Clifford is here, too. Don’t they realize what a huge impact they have?’

Clifford simply glanced at everyone casually. The gaze that lingered on Jeremiah was just a second longer than on everyone else. His mind was completely occupied with Aurora.

Aurora was so vague and unclear on the phone, and her texts were just as ambiguous. Even though Clifford could tell she was fake crying on the phone, he was still worried sick. He was given a moment of peace in his life.

Clifford saw the sorry state of the women across the room, his expression became serious, and he frowned slightly. He already had some guesses in his mind. He moved past everyone and stood in front of Aurora, who was sitting in a chair. First, he glanced at Aurora. He made sure she wasn’t hurt anywhere, which made him feel less worried. Then his gaze swept to Yvette sitting next to Aurora, and he paused slightly.
