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

Chapter 620

Ten minutes later, Sienna, Frankie, Bruce, and Chris were all seated on the couch. Their postures was perfectly synchronized and their gazes uniformly focused on Emmett and Alice, who were munching on snacks. Bruce and the other two agreed wholeheartedly with Frankie's earlier statement-love was truly a mystical thing.

Just as Emmett finished the last packet of crackers, Yvette and Jeremiah descended the stairs from the second floor. Everyone in the living room stood up to greet them.

The moment Alice saw Yvette, she darted toward Yvette and threw herself into that woman's arms.

Just like when she was a child, she nuzzled Yvette's shoulder. However, this time, she could only nuzzle a few times before Jeremiah grabbed the back of her shirt and yanked her away.

A considerate person, Jeremiah only grabbed her clothes and did not use much force. Alice struggled in dissatisfaction for a moment but soon realized she couldn't escape. She hung her head, looking pitiful, and tears started to well up in her eyes. Emmett quickly stepped forward, shielding Alice behind him. He explained, "Jeremiah, Alice didn't mean it."

Yvette tilted her head, giving Jeremiah a sideways glance with narrowed eyes. She slowly approached Alice, gently patted her head, and asked softly, "What do we do when we can't win?"

Alice stubbornly held back her tears. With a soft and childlike voice that was devoid of any threat but resolutely firm, she said, "You said if we can't win, ambush them. Kick the guys in the crotch and pull the girls by their hair."

Everyone else there were both amused and exasperated by Alice's innocent response. It was clear that Yvette had taught her -she even declared her ambush tactics so boldly.

Alice puffed her cheeks and glared at Jeremiah, clearly ready to fight.

Her arms crossed, Yvette stepped aside and casually leaned back as her narrowed eyes playfully scanned Jeremiah. Then, she turned to Alice and said, "Be ruthless and quick. Go for it."

Across from them, Jeremiah stood there, coughed lightly, and gave Emmett a look. Emmett hurriedly turned around and grabbed Alice, who was already balling her fists and ready to charge. He said, "Be good, Alice. I'll take you to the garden to play."
