Masked In Nobility: Secrets Of Mrs. Chavez

“God, has Sharon lost her mind? Is she telling the truth? How dramatic this is!”

“I can’t believe it. It’s bad enough that Victor usually runs rampant on campus, but to think he caused a girl to have an abortion?”

“Sharon is at fault, too, isn’t she? She’s Winona’s best friend, how could she steal her boyfriend?”

“I think they’re both in the wrong,”Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

That’s true.

“This is absolutely insane. Sharon actually exposed something like this; she must have given up on everything.”

Winona’s face turned pale at Sharon’s words as she turned to look at Victor.

Victor looked extremely grim. He had never expected Sharon to reveal their relationship in front of so many people; he thought she was truly crazy.

When Victor ho**d up with Sharon, it was just for fun; he never imagined she would get pregnant one day. Although she had an abortion, Sharon clung to him afterward. In truth, his novelty toward her had long faded, but because she was always around Winona, Victor didn’t have the opportunity to cut ties.

Victor quickly grabbed Winona and tried to explain. “Winona, it was this b**h who seduced me! I was just drunk. Please forgive me, okay?”

Sharon laughed and pointed at Victor. “You say I seduced you? Sure, maybe I could seduce you once or twice, but come on, you’ve slept with me plenty of times over the past two years. Ha ha..

Victor was completely at a loss for words. Winona’s tears flowed uncontrollably. Part of her reaction was pure drama, yet a small part of it was sincere. She loved Victor, albeit a little. Winona always loved herself the most.

She had long been aware, or perhaps had accepted, Victor’s wandering ways; such behavior was quite common in their circle. Yet having Victor’s cheating exposed publicly was aunajor blow to her pride. Deep down, Winona was upset because her self-esteem had been shattered.

“Why? She’s my best friend… why would she do this?” After saying this, Winona ran out in tears.

As Winona passed Jeremiah, she slowed her steps intentionally and cast a red-eyed glance in his direction, feeling pitiful. But seeing him still focused on Yvette only fueled her jealousy. Victor chased after Winona, desperately trying to catch up to her.

Quietly, Bonnie leaned over to Yvette and said, “Yve, isn’t this like a game of tag? How boring!”

Yvette chuckled softly, finding Bonnie’s thought rather unique. Andrew couldn’t help but laugh as well; Bonnie’s comments were just too amusing. He made a mental note of her name, thinking the name Bonnie was cute,

When Bonnie heard someone laughing at her, she looked up to find the source: one of the guys who had defended Yvette earlier. She politely similed at him before shooting him a glare. Her father had taught her that it was important to engage in manners first before showing any aggression.

Andrew found this amusing. They continued to glare at each other like a couple of little kids, which others might have considered silly, but they found joy in the playful confrontation.

Sharon sat alone, sobbing uncontrollably; no one approached to offer comfort.

“Apologize, Yvette said.

Hearing these two words, Sharon instinctively muttered, Tm sorry. As soon as she realized who had spoken, she immediately lowered her head in shame.

A self-deprecating laugh escaped her lips. She felt utterly stripped of dignity. In her futile attempt to elevate herself by stepping on Yvette, she had lost everything instead.

“Take this,” Yvette’s voice remained cold. Sharon looked up to see Yvette standing before her, offering a tissue, which caused her tears to flow even more heavily.

Yvette radiated a wild, carefree bravado that made Sharon realize why she had ever felt the need to challenge her. It wasn’t just about forcing Victor to apologize or Winona’s feelings; it was because Yvette embodied everything that Sharon yearned for yet could never attain, igniting her jealousy.

As Yvette extended the tissue to her, a fleeting hope crossed Sharon’s mind: perhaps if she pleaded with Yvette, she would let it go. Yvette. I’m sorry. Please spare us!” Sharon begged.

Yvette turned away from her, her slender figure momentarily pausing. She felt disappointed by Sharon’s actions. “No, you have to face the consequences of your mistakes,” she replied.

Yvette’s words felt like cold water splashed across Sharon’s face, awakening her to the absurdity of her actions. She realized that Yvette had no reason to forgive her; everything was of her own making.

At that moment. Sharon finally came to a complete awakening. Watching Yvette begin to walk away, she wiped her tears fiercely and cried out hoarsely. “I’m sorry, Yvette. We will leave Seacrity”

Without looking back, Yvette continued on her path. Jeremiah said nothing as he followed her out. Andrew, Bonnie, and John also chose to leave, while Tobias hesitated for a moment, glancing back at Simon, and then left.

Simon sighed, turning to Sharon in a serious tone. “You should go home. Life is about walking the right path; once your stray, it’s hard to return. I hope this teaches you a lesson; be a better person in the future.”

Numbly, Sharon nodded and left the auditorium. She knew she was wrong, even if it was too late. Simon had pending matters to attend to, and after directing Patrick to handle the follow-up, he left as well.

Once outside, Yvette pulled out her black phone and sent a text message to an unnamed, unfamiliar number before continuing forward.

Jeremiah caught up with Yvette, who looked radiant in the sunlight, her delicate profile illuminated with an unexpected warmth.

“My subordinates didn’t even have time to act before someone inoved against the Sullivan family,” he remarked.

“I’m hungry; and there’s no candy left, Yvette replied.

A hint of amusement flickered in Jeremiah’s eyes. He nodded. “Let’s go. I made a reservation at that steakhouse. We can talk about the candy later

Yvette shot him a glance, agreeing eagerly. She was excited to indulge in more steaks. If Eagle King were present, he would undoubtedly be furious. The candy seemed priceless to him while Jeremiah was exchanging it for mere steaks.

“Keep up” Jeremiah instructed. Andrew, Bonnie, and the others followed Yvette and Jeremiah, instinctively maintaining a respectful distance. It was clear that Jeremials was no ordinary person; his icy demeanor intimidated them.

“Hey, is that guy your brother? Bonnie whispered to Andrew.

Andrew shook his head mysteriously. “Nope.”

Bonnie rubbed her nose in confusion. “Really? I thought you two were brothers. Are you that close with your other friends.

Andrew quickly said, “No way! Jeremiah is different from everyone else.

Tobias felt hesitant to break the silence, knowing that Tobias was his mentor. Although Tobias was usually warm and approachable, John felt a bit awkward being so close to him for the first time.

John trailed behind them, with John glancing at Tobias, who remained silent, appearing deep in thought. John

Feeling extremely uncomfortable, John wondered whether he should say anything at all. Watching Bonnie and Andrew chatting animatedly ahead, he hoped they might notice and save him from the embarrassment.

Before long, they arrived at the steakhouse. Jeremiah’s reserved room was located on the second floor, while the first floor had an open layout.

The steakhouse was ordinary in its decor, somewhat aged, yet the dishes here were exceptional. Many people from high society frequented the establishment, drawn by its delicious offerings. The owner was peculiar, refusing to allow takeout; customers could only enjoy their meals on-site.

Despite this strict policy, the restaurant remained bustling with patrons day after day.
