Talented Hairess A Rose with Thorns

Chapter 438

"If you dare compete with me, I'm going to have to beat you up."

Adam, tall and imposing, naturally exuded an authoritative presence.

Ashton and Sean immediately backed down. As much as they wanted to be by their beloved sister's side, they couldn't handle Adam's fists!

After all, Adam was a former special forces soldier. How could they possibly be a match for him?

"We get it, we get it, Adam. We won't compete with you for Yvie!" Ashton and Sean muttered begrudgingly.

Good, those two brats knew their place!

Seeing this, Adam raised his eyebrows triumphantly, but as soon as he turned, he saw Yvette standing behind him.

The smug expression on his face instantly vanished.

Oh, no! He'd just acted like a thug-what if Yvette got a bad impression of him and stopped liking him?

"Yvie!"

Adam immediately squeezed out a gentle smile from his rugged, chiseled face. "I'm actually very gentle, so don't be afraid of me!" Gentle?

Ashton and Sean rolled their eyes so hard they literally saw the back of their skull. Did Adam even know the meaning of the word gentle?

Seeing the tough man act so cautiously in front of her, Yvette didn't have the heart to make things difficult for him. She nodded obediently. "I'm not afraid."

Only then did Adam's face light up with a smile again, his eyes full of hope as he asked, "Yvie, how about I take you to school?"

"Okay." Yvette nodded in agreement. After all, she had something she needed to talk to him about.

Ms. Yvette, Ms. Nancy gets a share too. People who don't know might think you have another little sister!" He'd never seen Jacob care so much about any other woman besides Yvette. Could it be that Nancy was the future lady of the Murray family? At that, Jacob fell into deep thought, his long, slender fingers tapping gently on the
