Talented Heiress: A Rose With Thorns

Chapter

672

A layer of frost rapidly settled over Wilson, and his eyes turned sinister. "Useless," he remarked. Xavier actually went whining to Yvette, needing her to stand up for him. What a disgraceful man! Yvette pressed her red lips tightly together. "Don't you dare speak of Xavier like that!" Xavier was her friend through life and death. She wouldn't tolerate anyone insulting him. "Yvie, you're defending him?"

Wilson felt like he was on the verge of being consumed by jealousy. Yvette was always cold and had never defended anyone this fiercely.

But her indifference did not seem to apply to Xavier. She did not allow a single bad word about him to be uttered.

There were too many things between them that Wilson didn't know of. They were so familiar, so in sync, and all of it made him burn with jealousy.

The words Xavier had taunted him with echoed in his mind once again. He'd said, "You're only Yvie's nominal fiancé. That doesn't mean you'll actually marry her."

The unease in Wilson's heart deepened. Veins bulged on his forehead, and his eyes were dark and terrifying.

Yvette furrowed her brows at him and said, "This was your fault to begin with. Releasing the shipment is the right thing to do. Stop being unreasonable!"

"I'm not releasing it!" The jealousy surging inside Wilson intensified, his eyes now bloodshot. He

spat out his refusal through gritted teeth.

Not only was he not going to release the cargo to Xavier, but he was also going to destroy it, causing the Dark Organization to suffer significant losses.

"I'm giving you three days to release the shipment! Yvette's expression turned cold, her previously restrained anger flaring up. She didn't want to continue arguing with him. "Now, calm yourself."

With that, she turned and walked away without a second's hesitation.

Watching her retreating figure, Wilson felt a sudden emptiness in his chest, a sharp pang of pain

and panic. He instinctively chased after her.

"Yvie..." he called.

But Yvette walked swiftly without stopping. With quick strides, she reached her motorcycle and Chapter 672

gracefully got atop it. Without looking back even once, she revved and sped away in an instant. "What's going on? What happened?"noveldrama

Martha hurried over, her face filled with concern and worry.

"I heard from the staff that you and Yvie got into a fight. What on earth happened?"

A heavy sense of gloom surrounded Wilson. He didn't respond to Martha's question, sinking into

silence.

Seeing his expression, Martha immediately understood that they truly had gotten into a fight. Furious, she smacked him hard on the arm twice.

"You argued with Yvie and even made her leave! When the staff members told me about it, I couldn't believe my ears. Where did you get the nerve to argue with her?" Wilson let Martha hit him several more times, but she still wasn't satisfied. If her cane had been nearby, she would have used it to whack him by now.

"You good-for-nothing! If you make me lose such a sweet, well-mannered, and outstanding granddaughter-in-law like Yvie, I'll break your legs

D

Martha was anxious beyond measure. "What are you still standing for? Go after her! Hurry up and make it up to Yvie! If you don't, don't bother coming back!" "Understood, Grandma!"

Wilson didn't waste any more time. He immediately got in his car and drove toward Murray Manor, stepping hard on the gas pedal.

His devilishly handsome face was filled with regret, and he loosened his tie in frustration.

It was all his fault for losing control of his emotions today, making Yvette so angry.
