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

However, the next moment, the cup was already in Yvette’'s hand. Tobias only saw a blur as Yvette moved to the

other side. When he looked again, the cup was in her hand. Yvette kept a straight face, raising an eyebrow as

she gazed at Sophia,

Sophia panicked. Yvette's terrifying stare made her feel as if she were a mere bug. She struggled to pull the cup

back, but no matter how much strength she used, the hand on it remained inmovable. Realizing the situation

was bad, Sophia grabbed her bag, muttering curses as she stormed out without daring to look back.

Tobias stood there, dumbfounded. Yvette had managed to get rid of Sophia without saying a word, while all his

attempts had failed. Once Sophia left. Tobias sighed in reliet. Finally, it was over. Turning to Yvette, he expressed

his gratitude. “Imi glad you showed up. Otherwise, | wouldn't have known how to get out of that situation.”

Tobias had always got along well with his students. Given his relatively young age, he rarely acted like a strict

teacher unless a student seriously misbehaved. Particularly with Yvette, whom he already regarded as more of a

friend than an average university student.

Yvene handed the milkshake to Bonnie and glanced at the relieved Tobias. In a calm voice, she said. “If you don't

like something then don’t do it. Why make things so hard for yourself?”

Tobias froze, silent for a moment, before smiling bitterly as he looked at Yvette, who had already settled herself

on the couch. His tone was tinged with melancholy. “Easier said than done. Many things in life are out of our

control.” It was unclear if he was talking about being forced into a blind date or something else entirely, but he

appeared somewhat sorrowful

Standing nearby, Bonnie had no idea what they were talking about. It was just a blind date-why were they

making it so philosophical? She gave up trying to understand and focused on sipping her milkshake.

Yvette took a sip of her milkshake, savoring the sweetness. She wasn’t one to meddle in other people's affairs,

but she just felt like saying something that day.

Tobias didn’t say anything else. He just sat down and drunk his coffee. The three of them sat in silence, each

drinking their respective beverages. In the middle of it. Tobias received a phone call. hastily saying goodbye to

the two before leaving.

After finishing their drinks, Yvette and Bonnie headed toward the campus entrance, only to spot a black MPV

parked there. A man stepped out and walked straight toward Yvette. Upon reaching her, he bowed respectfully.

“Ms. Zeller, would you please cwith me? Mr. Chambers is waiting for you.” The man was Lucas, dressed in a

suit. As he looked at Yvette, his heart filled with admiration. He was the one who brought her back. Back then, he

already had a feeling that Yvette was no ordinary person.

As it turned out, in just a month's time, Yvette had achieved numerous things. First, she won the Frixyia

competition. Then, overnight, the Sullivan family went bankrupt and got kicked out of Seacrity. Shortly after, she

somehow forced Rebecca to take action, leading to Victor apologizing to an ordinary person

Yvette had even gotten into a conflict with Daniel's son, which resulted in the intervention of Simon, Wyatt, and

Jeremiah. Daniel was eventually taken down. Just recently, she won a piano competition. Although Lucas wasn’t

there to witness it, he later heard from Zachary that Yvette knew the world-renowned pianist Bryan. Bryan had

even video-called her to show his

support

With each event piling up, it becevident that Yvette was far from the country girl they had assumed her to

be. On the contrary... Lucas stared blankly at Yvette’s delicate face, lost in thought. It wasn’t until she spoke that

he snapped back to reality. Yvette's voice was cold. “What's the matter?”

Lucas knew that getting Yvette to agree wasn’t going to be easy, and he braced himself. If necessary, he was

prepared to shamelessly beg her to get inside the car. However, before he could fully prepare himself, Yvette

spoke again. “Let’s go.”

Lucas’ heart leaped like he had just been on a roller coaster. He was ecstatic, though he couldn't figure out why

Yvette had agreed so quickly this time. Nevertheless, he was relieved that he didn’t have to resort to his

shameless plan. Otherwise, with

so many people watching, he would've felt extremely embarrassed.

Next, Yvette turned toward Bonnie and said. “You head back first Bonnie nodded, taking their shopping bags and

walking away. Yvette got into the car. After closing the door, Lucas climbed into the front passenger seat. He was

so focused on Yvette that he didn’t notice Winona and a group of girls watching them from the university

entrance.

“Winona, didn’t that man look like your family’s butler? Wan’t be the one who brought your art supplies the other

day?” one of the girls asked.

“Yeah. | remember now. | think it was him,” another chimed in.

“He wasn’t here for you? Why did he leave without seeing your one asked,

They had only caught a glimpse of Lucas closing the car door al hadn't seen much of what had happened earlier.

All they saw was a silhouette. Everyone was perplexed and wondered why Lucas had shown up if he wasn’t there

for Winona.

Only Winona knew who Lucas opened the door for. She recognized Yvette immediately. She was sure she wasn’t

mistaken. She clenched her fist so tightly that her nails dug into her palm, but she maintained a calm demeanor.

“He was here to bringsomething. | asked him to check on Yvie, to see if she needed any help,” she explained

with a smile.

When the girls heard Winona say that, they couldn't stop showering her with compliments.

“Winona, you're so kind. Don't listen to those people on the forum. They're framing you because they're

captivated by Yvette, one said.

“Exactly. Don’t let it get to you. No matter how impressive Yvette is, people will eventually cback to support

you,” the other uttered.

Winona remained silent. Finding an excuse to leave the group, the snuck off to a quiet corner of the sports field,

biting her lip as she dialed Nellie’s number.

Meanwhile, Nellie was playing cards with a man named Blake. Blake was a local gangster in Seacrity. Nellie had
