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

Bonnie took out a gold-trimmed envelope from the second drawer. The envelope’s surface featured a delicate ink

painting of mountains and rivers, clearly crafted with care.

Handing the envelope to Yvette, Bonnie said. “Vve. Winona sent this here. She personally cto our dorm to

deliver it the day after you left. It seems to be an invitation to her apprenticeship ceremony on Sunday. She also

mentioned that your father would publicly announce your identity at the event”

Bonnie paused, then said angrily, “Yve, you have no idea how annoying Winona is. She said the apprenticeship

ceremony is really important and hoped you'd be there on time. Her apprenticeship ceremony and your welcome

hparty are happening at the stime, but she’s acting like it’s all about her.”

Yvette nodded indifferently, casually putting on a tracksuit. Without a second glance, she tossed the envelope

onto the table. She pinched Bonnie's cheek playfully, her tone lazy. “Let's go. It's not worth getting mad over

something so insignificant. I'll treal you to a milkshake”

Bonne glanced at Yvette, whose face remained expressionless. It seemed she had been worried for nothing.

Yvette didn’t care at all. Thinking back to how arrogant Winona had been when she delivered the invitation,

Bonnie couldn't help but grumble.

They first went to Argrol University students’ favorite milkshake shop, only to find it closed. A note on the door

explained that the owner was getting married and the shop would be closed for three days.

Left with no choice, they went to a slightly farther dessert shop, famous for its cream cakes and a favorite

hangout for couples from Argrol University

After ordering their milkshakes, Yvette told Bonnie to go inside while she waited outside. Standing near the

entrance with one hand in her pocket. Yvette pulled out her phone with the other hand, scrolling through the

news. She cacross an entertainment article about Winona’s apprenticeship ceremony.

The entire article was filled with over-the-top compliments-calling Winona a genius, a lady of grace, a role model,

and perfect in every way. Just as Yvette was about to scroll past it, something caught her eye.

It was said that Matthew from the Carter family would make a major announcement at the event, urging readers

to stay tuned. It was a typical media tactic to add a sense of mystery.

“Miss, your milkshake’s ready.” The guy at the milkshake shop had been distracted while making milkshakes,

sneakily glancing at Yvette the whole time.

As he handed over the milkshake, he saw Yvette’s slender, fair hand. The guy's face turned red. Seeing Yvette

was about to head inside, he mustered the courage and called out to her, “Wait. | added extra caramel for you.

Hope you like it.”

Yvette stopped, turned around, and, with her usual cool expression, politely thanked him, “Thanks.”

The guy hadn’t expected a response from such a seemingly aloof girl. His face turned even redder, and he

shouted after her. “Goddess. I'm Flynn Reynolds from the computer science department, and I'll always support

your

His shout drew passersby’s attention, but the guy was so happy that he didn’t mind the stares. Yvette simply

turned her back to the crowd.

Inside the dessert shop, Bonnie sat in a corner by the window-the sspot where Yvette and Yulia had sat last

time. It had the best view of the entire shop, but Bonnie was visibly uncomfortable.

Yvette, holding two milkshakes, walked over, and halfway there, the understood the reason for Bonnie's unease.

Not far from her sat Tobias, engaged in conversation with a stylish young woman. Tobias’ seat faced directly

toward Bonnie.

Bonnie was clearly uncomfortable, trapped in an awkward situation. A simple hello would have sufficed, but who

would have

thought Tobias was on a blind date?

In the five minutes she'd been sitting there, Bonnie felt like she had been there for an eternity. Worse still, she

overheard the woman across from Tobias belittling his profession and salary, making her furious.

As Yvette passed by Tobias, she stopped and greeted him, “Hello, Mr. Sunderland.”

Tobias hadn't wanted to be there in the first place. The blind date was arranged by Simon. He had been nagging

Tobias endlessly about the importance of marriage and children. Simon had been the principal of Argrol

University for years, yet

he was still a conservative man.

Tobias felt he could manage just fine by himself. He only had to worry about himself and no one else. He didn’t

want to get married, but Simon wouldn't stop nagging him every day. To stop the constant badgering. Tobias had

reluctantly agreed fo the blind date.

Yet from the moment he sat down, the woman had been criticizing him non-stop, even suggesting that if they

got together, he should quit his job. He had been trying to leave for a while, but the woman insisted they

continue talking.

He couldn't refuse, so he had no choice but to bear it with a forced smile. Yvette’s appearance saved him from

the awkward situation. He immediately stood up. “Yvette, is your business all settled? Did you just get back? Are

you here specifically to

Tobias saw Yvette as his savior and looked at her with hope. His rapid string of questions momentarily caught

Yvette off guard, but when she looked at Tobias and his date, she realized what was going on.

Playing along, she responded politely, “Yes. If you're available, | have squestions I'd like to ask you.”

Tobias eagerly nodded, “Of course! Let's discuss it right away.”

Relieved to have an excuse to leave,

Tobias turned to Sophia Morris, the

woman across from him, and said

She had completely forgotten her father’s advice before she left to be polite and not offend Tobias by acting

spoiled. When Yvette showed up. Sophia initially assumed she was Tobias’ ex-girlfriend. Upon learning Yvette

was a student, Sophia felt relieved but still uncomfortable.

She could tell that Yvette was a natural beauty. She knew it because she had had several cosmetic surgeries.

Jealousy crept in. and she didn’t hide it

When Tobias publicly rejected her and prepared to leave with Yvette, Sophia slammed her glass on the table,

making a loud noise.
