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

Yvette glanced at him with her dark eyes. She leaned back without a care. Her long, straight legs were crossed. In a cool, clear voice, she said, “Yeah.”

Howard wasn’t surprised she knew about the website. Sometimes Ms. Zeller was so mysterious he felt like bowing down. When he met her, it was as if she had descended from the heavens…

Howard looked at Yvette very intently. He expressed his idea. “Ms. Zeller, why don’t we place an order on Black Gold Web and hire the top assassin, Zola, as your bodyguard? Whatever the cost, just to keep you safe.”

Howard, fearing Yvette might misunderstand, quickly elaborated. “I heard Zola takes on jobs on Black Gold Web based solely on personal inclination, but once they accept a job, they never fail. Still holding the top success rate on Black Gold Web. People say Zola has a peculiar and unpredictable personality. No one knows their gender; they’ve always appeared in a mask and use a voice modulator. However, I guess Zola might be a man–this line of work seems like a man’s domain, right?”

Of course, he didn’t know that two of the top three assassins on Black Gold Web were actually women. Howard decided that, regardless of the cost, he needed to ensure Yvette’s safety.

Howard was taken aback. He thought, ‘Did Ms. Zeller express that too confidently? How could she know for sure that the person wouldn’t take the job?‘

He said, “Ms. Zeller, let’s discuss this later. After all, we still have six months.”

Yvette could tell from Howard’s expression that he hadn’t given up yet. She sighed and thought, ‘Oh well, just to avoid being assigned to protect myself, I should make it clear.
