Chapter 615

Demetrius nodded after hearing Yvette's words, gently saying, "Okay, if you say there's no need, then there's no need."

Cyrus let out a bitter sigh, realizing that all he had said was no match for a single word from Yvette.

Dylan noticed that the tension in the room had finally cased. Taking advantage of the moment when no one was paying attention, he discreetly wiped his sweat. In his heart, he had been worried earlier that Yvette and Demetrius might get angry and team up to shoot Cyrus.

Demetrius said, "Finished your check-up? I'll send you out."

With a relaxed expression, Yvette nodded and raised her eyebrows, saying, "Yeah, Emmett's at the mansion."

Demetrius nodded. "Sure, let's go to the mansion first, then I'll take you and Emmett out."

Yvette and Demetrius chatted as they left the pool, completely ignoring Cyrus, who stood not far away.

Seeing this, Dylan quickly approached and said, "Mr. Becker, Mr. Becker and Ms. Zeller haven't seen each other in a long time. They're probably just too happy and momentarily forgot you were here."

Hearing this, Cyrus' expression did not change. He did not understand what Dylan meant by "haven't seen each other in a long time", wondering whether that dinner two days ago was for nothing.

Completely uncomforted, Cyrus snorted coldly and, with a stern face, went to the study to handle official matters.

Dylan rubbed his nose. It was not easy to survive in the workplace these days; he even had to blatantly lie. Meanwhile, as Yvette and Demetrius arrived at the mansion's entrance, they saw Emmett coming out, looking a bit uncomfortable. Upon seeing Yvette and Demetrius approaching, Emmett said in a low voice, "Yvette, Mr. Becker."

He then spoke to Yvette alone, saying, "Yvette, I've escorted Ms. Becker to her room. She might've been too tired, so she f- fell asleep."

When he mentioned that she fell asleep, Emmett blushed even more. As soon as Alice entered the room, she lay on the bed and fell asleep in less than two minutes, leaving him standing there, at a loss.
