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

Charles was at a loss for words.

Right now, Andrew was just like a poor toy for the drunken Yvette.

Samantha got up and walked to the window.

Charles glanced over and thought, ‘Samantha’s just pretending to be careless. After all, Andrew’s her little brother.

But the next moment, Charles was almost knocked out of his senses when Samantha said to Jeremiah with her hands on her chin, looking at Andrew tied to the post in the yard, “Mr. Chavez don’t you think Yvette is being too nice to the brat? That model from last time was wretched compared to him. Yvette is sjich a kind girl”

Jeremiah put down his coffee cup, leaning back on the sofa with his legs crossed casually, and gave a slight nod.

“Yvette has always been kind.”

Shocked at their conversation, Charles thought, ‘What are these two talking about?

‘Even I as a devoted fan of Yvette find it unbelievable.

‘Kind? Yvette? Isn’t she the one in charge of the Seventy-Two Chambers and infamous for her cruelty throughout Mysonna’s underground world?

Imust have misheard. That’s the only explanation.’

In the yard, Andrew excitedly drew circles on the ground with his foot when he saw Samantha through the window.

He could have used his hands instead if he was not all tied up.

Both mentally and physically exhausted, Andrew never imagined that the opportunity he fought so hard for would end up like this.

Not only were his wishes shattered, but now his life might end here.

By now Andrew would be a fool if he couldn’t tell that Yvette was drunk, but he wondered in puzzlement, ‘How come she got drunk so easily?

‘Didn’t she claim she was good at drinking?

‘And why is she so scary when drunk?’

Samantha waved at Andrew after noticing his distress signal and walked back to the couch.
