Winona's eyes widened in disbelief. How dare she actually dental that? What a bitch! Feeling a bit sorry for Winona, Zachary cleared his throat and rubbed his sore arim, saying, "Yvette, since Winona has apologized, can we just let it go? Keeping the peace in the family is important. I'll give you a villa in South Bay!" Nellie felt upset. That villa, over seven thousand square feet, was Zachary's prized possession. He had promised it to Zeke as a burthday gift. Now he was talking about giving it to Yvette as compensation-did it really have to be that much? Giving her a villa worth over 30 million dollars just like that? Winona's heart raced with anger. But since it all started because of her, she didn't dare say much more.

Zeke didn't expect that, by just watching the unfold, he'd end up losing a villa supposed to be his. Even though he wasn't short on cash, he knew that villa was his birthday gift and had been planning a party with the heirs from the four families. Now, that sure thing was slipping away. Zeke's face twisted as he bursed silently, 'Winona the useless troublemaker!" Yvette merely glanced at Zachary, showing no surprise or delight. But the reactions of the other three hinted that the villa was valuable.

Zachary thought Yvette didn't realize the market value of the villa. But if he brought it up, it would be awkward, like he was trying to show off. Yet, after offering her something so big, he didn't even get a smile in return. It left him feeling unsettled.

The butler, Lucas, who had been quiet this whole time, noticed Zachary looking frustrated. He stepped forward and said. respectfully, “Ms. Zeller, this villa is one of Mr. Zachary Chambers' prized properties, worth over 30 million dollars.

Really, is this an attempt to buyoff? A 30-million-dollar villa? So pricey? Yvette felt amused. She raised an eyebrow, asking. "So what?" How dare she act so haughty! She isn't just clueless. She's completely ungrateful! A rough country girl talking so big... Everyone else's faces turned dark with anger, except for Lucas, who was already familiar with Yvette's arrogance.

Nelle gritted her teeth and said, “Honey, since Yvette doesn't seem interested, let's not push her. She just got back, so it's better to stay at home. I've got a limited edition jewelry set that would be perfect for her. Consider it an apology Lowering her voice so only Zachary could hear, she added, "Didn't you promise Zeke the villa? If you give it to Yvette now, Zeke will be really disappointed. Let's find another way to make it up to her.

Nellie thought she was being discreet, but Yvette read her lips perfectly-lip-reading was almost a required skill in her world.

Zachary temporarily forgot about his promise to Zeke, but it only worked before Yvette showed up. But now? He wanted to keep the villa for Yvette, For a moment, he felt trapped between a rock and a hard place.

Seeing Zachary hesitate, Nellie decided to play off Yvette's attitude. She said with a pretentious voice, "You might not realize this, but your dad already promised the villa to Zeke as a birthday gift. Since you don't want it anyway, how about I throw in a Porsche along with the jewelry? Sound good? 'Why's she so eager about the villa? Is it really just about the money? Yvette sensed that there was more to it. "When will the villa officially change hands? she asked.

Winona sighed in relief. Zeke's gift had nothing to do with her anyway, but if Yvette agreed, she could avoid making a public apology. Otherwise, once words got out, she'd beca laughingstock in high society. Apologizing to a country girl? Con. Even if Yvette was her dad's daughter, to Winona, that made her just as lowly.

On second thought, Winona started to despise Yvette. Just a moment ago, she acted like money was beneath her, and now she's eager to seal the deal. Humph "Changed your mind?" asked Yvette.

Zachary assured her quickly and told Lucas to handle the paperwork. But Nellie wasn't done! She shot a glance at Zeke for backup.

Zeke had sinappropriate thoughts about Yvette and wasn't about to stop this deal. He thought, is deal He 'Once I have her, who cares about the villa? Keeping a cool demeanor, he chimed in, "Since Dad promised it to her, it only makes sense for it to go to her."

Nellie was fuming. Even my obedient son is enchanted by Yvette. She's e just as cunning as Lilian! х
