The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming

Chapter 195 In the End, Every Last Shred of Dignity Was Lost

Grace might have personally groomed Yvonne, and she had worked under Natalie for a while, but at the end of the day, she was just a secretary.

Selena, on the other hand, was the daughter Victor and Diana recently welcomed back into their lives. Everyone had seen firsthand how much Victor doted on her.

Yvonne didn't dare directly confront Selena. Instead, she tried reasoning with Kevin, but he wasn't about to listen to her.

Kevin lay flat on the rooftop, hands folded on his chest, exuding an air of calm.

"Ms. Yvonne, don't waste your breath on me. Go talk to Selena instead," he said, staring at the sky with a sigh. "I've been around long enough to know shamelessness when I see it, but she's set a new record."

He continued, his tone dripping with sarcasm. "Selling my shares to Victor is already a favor. But now his daughter wants them for free? If she's so set on it, I'll die right here with her.

"She's got no shame, and apparently, that makes her invincible." Kevin gave a bitter laugh. "Looking back, I wish I'd spat on her a few more times."

Yvonne's expression froze. She thought Selena's behavior was also outrageous—trying to exchange a humiliating moment for Kevin's shares. How could that ever happen?

But she couldn't push Selena too hard. Everyone in the company had seen how Selena acted when she lost her temper.

"Ms. Yvonne, just wait for Mrs. Langley Senior to come back and handle this. You're just an employee. You don't need to risk your neck for this mess," Kevin advised, glancing at her pale face.

"Mrs. Langley Senior's health is failing," Yvonne said, her worry evident. "I'm really concerned about her."

"For such a big company, it's ridiculous that they couldn't find someone else to keep things together," Kevin said sarcastically.
