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

Chapter 407

Hearing this, Andrew's heart was filled with worry. He thought, Crying? Why was Bonnie crying? What on earth happened?' Andrew pulled himself together and asked Jeremiah, "Jeremiah, can we head out tomorrow?" Emmett noticed the rare seriousness in Andrew and realized he really liked Bonnie.

Jeremiah looked at Andrew, nodded, and said firmly, "Yes, get ready; we're leaving tomorrow."

While they were talking, Yvette came down from upstairs, wearing a baseball cap and all black, looking quite cool. Jeremiah got up from the couch and went over. He asked, "Are you going out?"

Yvette gave a light nod, her eyes were dark and bright, with a hint of coldness. She said, "Yeah, I'm going out for a bit, don't wait for me for dinner."

Jeremiah paused, looking at Yvette with a deeper gaze, and softly said, "Okay."

Jeremiah and Yvette never needed to say much to each other. They had an understanding that avoided testing each other's limits and never touched on secrets they weren't ready to share. They had absolute trust and understanding between them. After Yvette left the villa, she took a cab directly to an antique shop, Vintage Vista. It was the most famous antique shop in Normis and a popular spot for treasure hunters trading quality items.

As Yvette walked in, a man of ordinary appearance approached her. He had a noticeable mole at the corner of his left eye and was dressed in traditional robes. He was Isaac Taylor, the owner of Vintage Vista.

Vintage Vista was a family business passed down through the generations, with a history of sixty or seventy years. Isaac, who was in his thirties, greeted Yvette enthusiastically.

He said, "Yvette, I didn't expect you to come to Normis in person. What brought you here? Just let me know if you need anything."

Yvette nodded, her deep and calm eyes meeting Isaac's as she raised an eyebrow and smiled slightly. She said, "It's been a long time."

Isaac thought carefully before he spoke, "Yes, it's been three years since we last saw each other in Mysonna.

"When I received your call recently saying you were coming to Normis, it surprised me. If it hadn't been your voice, I might have thought it was a scam call."

Yvette sat in the chair, her hand casually resting on the table. She picked up the coffee cup, took a sip, and asked unhurriedly, "How much have you learned about Dungo Village
