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

Eagle King continued, “Yvette came to Voraxia three years ago. I thought it was because Hadley had crossed her and that’s why she killed him. Who knew she was actually an Interpol officer?”

There was a touch of grievance in Eagle King’s voice as if he still couldn’t quite believe it himself. A tough guy like him, looking so pitiful–it was honestly a bit amusing.

Rodney, sitting on the couch, glanced at him. “That expression works for me, Mr. Eagle King, but on you? It’s just terrifying.”

Eagle King was pissed by his words.

Samantha, Charles, and Emmett were starting to piece things together. From what Eagle King was saying, Rodney didn’t seem to care about Hadley. That was why he had no obligation to seek revenge.

However, there was still one thing that didn’t sit right with them. They thought, ‘Even if Rodney didn’t seek revenge, he still shouldn’t be so close with Yvette, right?

Seeing the confusion in their eyes, Eagle King sighed again and recounted the story. “Hadley wanted to sell Rodney to a local criminal in Voraxia. This man had a notorious reputation for torturing kids.

“If Rodney had been handed over to him… Well, you can imagine how bad it would’ve gotten, but you probably guessed it. Yvette saved him and then killed Hadley.”

Hearing this, Samantha was enraged. She glared at Rodney who looked so delicate. “Hadley was absolute trash. How could he use his son to curry favor with others? He got what he deserved.”

Rodney lifted his gaze when he heard Samantha’s words, his voice calm. “It’s okay. If it weren’t for Hadley, I wouldn’t have met Yvette. I ended that asshole myself.”

Rodney spoke so calmly as if it were just another insignificant thing.
