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

Secrets Of MrS 608

Chapter 608

In the East Garden, a woman sat elegantly on a wooden bench, ding sophistication in a tailored Chanel style and high heels as a housekeeper quietly poured coffee into her porcelain cup. Cyrus' assistant had mentioned her name, Leilani Markos.

Known as the daughter of a Mysonna real estate mogul, Leilani had recently made waves with calculated efforts to win over

Demetrius.

Leilani's eyes followed Alice, who flitted around the garden chasing butterflies. A faint sneer appeared on Leilani's flawless face, her thoughts dripping with contempt.

If only Mr. Becker didn't dote on his simple-minded sister so much, I wouldn't have wasted my time pleasing her and enduring this charade. Trapped in this garden day after day, entertaining her foolish games and tending to flowers? I'm going to lose my mind, she mused.

Leilani groaned as she turned to her housekeeper, Amanda. "Heavens, how much longer do I have to put up with that idiot? I'm at my breaking point!" she whined.

Amanda cast a wary glance around, ensuring the guards were out of earshot before leaning in, whispering, "Ms. Markos, please hold on a bit longer.

"Once Mr. Becker agrees to the engagement, you'll secure your place as the next Markos heir. Alice is just a small obstacle. Tolerate the girl for now," she added. Leilani's irritation softened slightly as Demetrius' name was mentioned.

Her expression gave way to a shy, lovesick glow as she envisioned his chiseled looks.

"Well, if it weren't for Demetrius, I'd never waste my time like this with a fool," she said. "Anyway, you certain he's returning to the mansion this afternoon?"

The Markos family had sent Amanda with a clear mission-to keep Leilani's fiery temper in check and ensure she successfully married into the presidential palace, which would cement the Markos family's status in Mysonna
