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

After Layla finished speaking, she shot Wyatt a look that was just shy of leaping into his arms. To be honest, Wyatt was her ideal choice. She thought, ‘So what if he is a bit older? He is still elegant and charming!

At Wyatt’s age, he was already a mayor, and becoming a governor was practically within his grasp. She had already looked into it–Wyatt’s family was from Betrico.

If she could get her hands on him, being a mistress wouldn’t be out of the question. After all, anyone with power and influence was her target.

Wyatt avoided Layla’s gaze. He thought, ‘This woman must be crazy. What in the world does she see in me?‘

Zachary asked, “Yvette, could you tell us what she did?”

Hearing Zachary’s tone, Layla felt uneasy. Zachary didn’t sound like he was about to reprimand Yvette at all.

Yvette looked up and glanced at Layla, who was quietly wiping her tears and acting like a victim. With a daring lift of her eyebrows, she seriously replied to Zachary, “She asked me to help her find a rich and powerful man in Betrico.”

Hearing this, Wyatt struggled to hold back a laugh. Seeing Yvette’s deadpan face, it was surprisingly funny to hear her make that comment.

Zachary rubbed his temples. He really hadn’t expected Layla, who normally seemed so honest, to show her true colors now. She wanted Yvette to introduce her to some guys. Truly shameless she had no shame saying something like that.

Layla was shocked that Yvette actually said it out loud so directly She was flustered for a moment, but luckily, she had strong nerves and quickly regained her composure.

Layla quickly explained, “No, that’s not what I meant. I just… I just thought since Yvette knows some promising young men in Betrico, maybe I could meet them and make some friends. It is a misunderstanding, honestly a misunderstanding by Yvette.”

Anyway, since there was no third person around earlier, as long as she stuck to her story that she never said those words, then it would all be Yvette’s doing – she’d still have a chance.

Yvette looked at the stubborn Layla and said calmly, “There’s a camera above your head. Want to take a look?”
