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

Chapter 625

The atmosphere in the living room was so tense that no one dared to speak. Only Alice, completely unafraid of Jeremiah, nodded with a slight understanding.

"Yvette, I get it now. You don't want to marry him. You can marry me then. I can buy you lots of houses and snacks. I know I'm your favorite," said Alice.

The previously silent living room instantly lightened up after Alice's innocent words. Yvette lifted her beautiful eyes, and her lips curled nonchalantly with a mischievous and roguish expression. Then, Yvette spoke slowly. "Alice, he's your future brother-in-law, Jeremiah."

Those words struck right in Jeremiah's heart. His furrowed brows immediately relaxed. The dangerous and intimidating aura he had vanished right away.

Bruce, Sienna, and Frankie all glanced at Jeremiah. The word "future brother-in-law" completely overthrew Yvette's earlier reply. At that moment, the same thought crossed all their minds at once.

They all found a hopeless romantic like Jeremiah terrifying. He was totally under Yvette's control. No matter how powerful a man was, he would be helpless when he met a woman he loved, not to mention a powerful woman. Alice glanced at Jeremiah and thought, 'He pulled me, but Yvette told me he's my future brother-in-law' Reluctantly, Alice called out, "Jeremiah."

Then, Alice mumbled quietly, "If you pull my collar again, I'll get Yvette to deal with you."

Jeremiah's lips curled into a smile as he acknowledged Alice's address with a simple hum. Sienna quickly jumped in, "Yvette, Mr. Chavez, dinner is already reserved. Shall we go downstairs now?"

Yvette nodded, and the others tidied up to head downstairs to eat. Yvette and Jeremiah walked side by side at the back.

Jeremiah suddenly stopped and said seriously, "There's no such thing as maybe."

Yvette paused with a playful smirk and raised her eyebrow mischievously. She looked every bit like a cheeky female bully as she replied, "We'll see how well you behave then."

Jeremiah stood there with an air of elegance and charm, looking strikingly handsome and enigmatic. He paused for a few seconds and said in a deep voice, "Don't you already know that from earlier?" Jeremiah said that without a hint of embarrassment, showing a straight face as if he was saying something of utmost importance. Just by looking at his face, one would never guess he had said such a bold thing. Yvette shoved her hands in her pockets, glanced at Jeremiah casually, and replied calmly, "Nope."
