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

Chapter 707

The next second, Yvette's calm voice echoed. "Grandpa James, let's go together"

James was filled with disappointment just a moment ago, but he suddenly lit up, his spirits revitalized. With just a few words. he turned from near despair to full vigor. The others in the conference room were dumbfounded. They couldn't believe it-both families would be having a meal together. It was an impressive turn of events.

A flicker of amusement crossed Jeremiah's face. He knew it was his turn to act. "James, Jase has been wanting to play chess

th you lately. Why don't we head to the Chavez residence today and have a meal together?"

With those simple words, Jeremiah gave James an easy way out. James feigned deep contemplation and reluctantly nodded. though his heart was brimming with joy. He could finally have a meal with Yvette. But in front of everyone, James hard to act tough. James said, "Well since he misses me, I guess I'll go. But let me be clear-I'm only doing this for Yvette's sake. Otherwise, even if he sent a grand invitation, I wouldn't go."

Jeremiah didn't expose his bluff. Instead, he played along. "All right then. We're grateful for your willingness to make a trip to the Chavez residence."

James cast a glance of approval at Jeremiah. He seemed better than Jase at words. Meanwhile, Jase, still at the Chavez residence, had no idea he was being criticized.

Yvette raised an eyebrow and slowly said, "Let's go." With that, the day's drama came to an end.

After Yvette, Jeremiah, James, and Emmett left, everyone in the meeting room remained seated, exchanging uncertain glances.

This day was truly thrilling. They had realized Yvette's influence and importance to Jeremiah, as well as her place in the hearts of the Chavez family. From now on, no one in Betrico would dare mess with Yvette-messing with her could cost them their lives. Suddenly, someone stood up and left, and everyone seemed to snap back to reality, leaving one by one. In the end, only was left sitting in the chair. He sipped the last bit of coffee before finally getting up and leaving the conference room.

When Jeremiah, Yvette, James, and Emmett reached the First Military District, they noticed a black car parked at the entrance, looking as though it had been there for a while.

The black car door swung open, and Clifford emerged in casual attire. Typically, he wore outfits from Skye Group, but now. aside from formal suits, all his casual wear was from Vibe.

It was the same with Aurora's clothing. Whenever there was a new release, the head of Vibe's Betrico branch would deliver ir in her size. Their service was thoughtful and attentive-clearly, she was benefiting from certain connections.
