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

As soon as Sharon answered the phone, her father's voice boomed across the auditorium, loud enough for everyone to hear.

"idiot! What the hell have you done? If I had known you would cause such a disaster, I should have suffocated you at birth. The Sullivan family is ruined because of you; it's all over!" he said.

Sharon trembled, her voice filled with fear. "Dad, what are you talking about? How can our family be over? What's going on?" "Are you seriously asking me? Do you know who's targeting us? It's the Sunrise Group from Betrico. In their eyes, we are nothing. They said this is because you've crossed someone you shouldn't have. You need to go apologize to that person right away and beg for forgiveness, whatever it takes. Hurry up, or you'll be kicked out of our family!" And with that, the phone was abruptly hung up.

Terror washed over Sharon as she looked at Yvette and Jeremiah, uncertain which of the two had such formidable power. Compared to Yvette, she subconsciously believed more that it was the mah standing next to Yvette who was responsible for this situation Everyone heard the words on the phone, and they looked at Yvette and Jeremiah in disbelief.

Few people in this country didn't know about the Sunrise Group. It was the largest technology company in the country. having established itself as a leader in the domestic tech industry within just five years. Its owner was extremely mysterious, never having made an appearance since the company was founded; only the general manager attended various large events.

L Speculation about this behind-the-scenes boss was rampant, but it remained nothing more than unverified rumors. The Sunrise Group had taken action against the Sullivan family, leaving them with no way out. The disparity in power between the two was too great.

Now everyone knew that Yvette and Jeremiah were telling the truth. Within half an hour, the somewhat notable Sullivan family in Seacrity had been finished. But people were still wondering how Yvette and Jeremiah could make the Sunrise Group take action. After all, they thought Yvette was just a girl from the countryside, and Jeremiah was a mere librarian.

"Is the Sullivan family really bankrupt?" someone asked.

Simon took another careful look at Jeremiah, suddenly feeling that he looked familiar. This man bore a striking resemblance to a prominent figure he knew, If Jeremiah were indeed that man's son, everything would make sense. “But why would he personally cto Security? Simon thought for a moment, and then dismissed the thought as unlikely.

Winona and Victor were nervous. They both sensed that Jeremiah's identity was surely not simple, thinking that Yvette was acting so arrogantly because she had found a man to back her up, the man beside her was her source of confidence.

Victor scoffed. "Hmph, relying on a man isn't a real accomplishment!" Winona glanced over at Yvette and Jeremiah, who looked like a perfect match, and felt a wave of jealousy. She knew that in the ssituation, Victor would not step forward to support her, She couldn't understand why Yvette was so lucky.

Looking at Jeremiah's handsface made Winona's heart race. She began to imagine that perhaps she could be the woman standing next to him. Winona firmly believed she was a hundred times better than Yvette. Whatever Yvette could do, she could do, too.

She stole a sidelong glance at Victor, who was muttering to himself, then looked back at Jeremiah, lowering her gaze and quiedy planning in her mind.

After hanging up the phone, Sharon suddenly cto her senses. She rushed toward Jeremiah, trying to grab his sleeve. But before she could touch the corner of his clothing, he kicked her own.

Sharon fell to the ground her carefully prepared outfit for the competition now in disarray, her hair disheveled, looking almost like a madwoman. The students of Argrol University were stunned by this sudden scene.

Jeremiah's kick shattered Sharon's pride completely. Looking around at the pity, disdain, sympathy, and amusement reflected in the eyes of those around her, her emotions spiraled out of control.

Realizing she had truly provoked someone she shouldn't have, Sharon disregarded everything and crawled towards Jeremiah, but this tshe no longer dared to touch him. Tu sorry. Please spare my family: I'll do anything you ask, please....

Upon hearing the last two sentences, everyone understood her intention. Sharon was clearly trying to seduce Jeremiah.

The crowd looked at the disheveled Sharon. While her character was questionable, her looks were certainly appealing. Everyone was curious how Jeremiah would react to such a pretty girl throwing herself at him.

Jeremiah grinned slightly, his cold eyes fixed on Sharon, which made her feel a flutter of hope; Jeremiah's smile seemed to suggest that he might have sinterest in her.

She quickly tidied her hair and smoothed her wrinkled clothes, then flashed a flirtatious smile at Jeremiah, appearing coy, before throwing a provocative glance at Yvette.

Yvette didn't even lift her head, continuing to stand lazily to the side. Seeing this, Winona felt a pang of anxiety, worried that Jeremiah might actually be interested in Sharon Jeremiah's voice was slow and sounded utterly relaxed. "You don't deserve that. The one you owe an apology to isn't me; it's Yvette Sharon's face turned pale. The murmurs began again among the crowd.

Sharon truly did not want to apologize to Yvette. She looked desperately at those around her, first glancing at Simon, hoping the president might speak up for her. But Simon completely ignored her, lost in thought as he stared at Jeremiah.
