Talented Heiress: A Rose With Thorns

Skyla savored Yvette's touch, and her delicate face immediately flushed. The latter didn't notice it, though.

Yvette looked at her vibrating phone and answered the call. "Hello, Ellie."

"The intercontinental ballistic missile has been delivered to Dark Organization, Yvie." Ellen's excited voice could be heard over the phone.

Yvette's lips curled into a grin. Clearly, she was in a good mood from hearing the

news.

"Okay. Got it."

"Wilson is quite generous. Since he has given the intercontinental ballistic missile to Dark Organization, I guess I will approve of him." At the next moment, Ellen seemed to have recalled something.

She immediately spoke up again, "With that said, what should we tell Mr. Maximillian, Yvie? We could just tell him that it's a wedding gift, can't we?"

Wilson was Yvette's boyfriend. So, it was absolutely fine to say that he had given Dark Organization a wedding gift for Yvette's hand in marriage. That was what Ellen thought with no hesitation whatsoever.

Yvette squinted and fell into deep thought when she heard what Ellen said. It was

a valid concern. Theodore didn't have any idea about her and Wilson.

Ellen asked somewhat anxiously, "What are you going to do, Yvie?"

Yvette hadn't introduced Wilson to Theodore as of yet. In fact, Theodore didn't even know about them being a couple. If he were to find out that Yvette already belonged to another man...

Well, to say it would end in disaster would be an understatement.

Yvette clicked her tongue gently. "Don't tell Mr. Maximilian just yet." She would tell Theodore about it after Brad had officially met up with Theodore.

"Alright. I'll do as you say, Yvie." Ellen nodded. "Don't worry, sweetheart. I'll keep it from Mr. Maximilian as long as you want me to."

After she ended the call, Yvette found herself looking at a disgruntled Skyla.

"You've got a lot of ladies around you, Yvie!" Skyla snorted in jealousy.

Yvette was amused by how cute Skyla looked. She reached out and rubbed the latter's cheek. "Let's go inside for a meal, my jealous dittle

Back in Shadow Alliance headquarters, Samuel greeted Wilson and briefly reported to the latter about Yvette's activities.

Wilson's expression turned cold when he heard about how Yohan spoke impertinently to Yvette. His voice was cold and menacing when he said, "Take care of the Reed family."

Samuel immediately responded respectfully, "Understood, Mr. Quinn."

The Reed family had grown more unruly over the years. One of their own even offended Yvette this time. They were truly asking for it.

"When's Yvie coming back?" Wilson's expression softened when he mentioned Yvette. In fact, his voice was dripping with affection.

Samuel looked troubled, but he gritted his teeth and said, "Ms. Yvette wanted me to tell you that she won't be coming back tonight, Mr. Quinn."

At the next moment, Samuel felt the room turning chilly all of a sudden. It felt so cold that he shivered involuntarily.

"Ms. Yvette said that she would stay the night at the Granger household..."

Wilson's expression was as cold as ice. Clearly, he was extremely displeased.noveldrama

Samuel saw this, and he didn't dare to continue speaking. He quietly kept his head down. It seemeddike Wilson would have to sleep alone tonight. How terrible it must be for him.
