Talented Heiress: A Rose With Thorns

The anger boiling in Theodore's heart diminished a little upon observing Xavier's respectful attitude.

He asked coldly, "Did Yvie leave together with Wilson?"

He could no longer conceal the matter from Theodore, so Xavier nodded. "Yes."

Theodore's expression turned incredibly ugly at his response.

"What... What nerve!" he bellowed angrily, slamming a palm heavily against the desk. "Go capture Wilson right now and bring Yvie back!"

Xavier pursed his lips, replying, "Yes, Mr. Maximillian."

Theodore snorted coldly before suddenly standing up. His pale, haggard face was marked by a deep seriousness.

"This time, I'm heading out personally!" he declared.

Only by making a move himself could he prevent Wilson and his company from escaping again.

Deep hatred filled his eyes at the thought of Wilson. He would definitely avenge the tragic deaths of his wife and daughter with his own hands!

...

When Yvette woke up early the next morning, Wilson had already finished preparing breakfast.

"Try it, baby," he said.

Yvette took a seat at the table and, sniffing at the tempting aroma, immediately took a bite. It tasted so delicious that her eyes crinkled in delight.

"Not bad. Your culinary skills have improved again," she commented.

Wilson's lips curved into a smile at her satisfied praise, eyes full of affection. "I'm glad you like it, baby! I'll cook for you every day from now on."

Yvette felt a flash of warmth at his words. She then tilted her head at him, asking, "Why have you become so eager to cook?"

His eyes on her were fiery and affectionate. "Because I want to conquer your stomach so that you won't ever be able to leave me," he replied amusedly.

"You're pretty conniving, Mr. Quinn!" she exclaimed in mock affront, unable to resist smiling as she hooked her arms around his neck. "However, I was already unable to leave you a long time ago,

Wilson's smile deepened at her words, and he was extremely pleased.

This was the scene Samuel saw as soon as he walked into the room. He hurriedly

made a silent and tactful retreat, not daring to disturb them.noveldrama

"I have something to tell you, Yvie," Wilson began after Yvette had finished her breakfast. "We've found Wesley's whereabouts."

At first, her eyes flashed with joy at his words, but she quickly calmed down again.

No matter what methods she had employed before, she hadn't been able to obtain any information on Wesley, so it was rather suspicious that they had suddenly found him now... .

She raised her head to look Wilson in the eye, only to find him looking right back at her.

Evidently, they were thinking the same thing.

She pursed her lips, then said, "Let's set out now and bring Wesley back!"

Although the situation was

suspicious, they didn't have the

leisure of worrying too much over it

right now. Finding Wesley and

bringing him back was currently

their utmost priority!

"Alright," Wilson said simply, nodding in agreement. He naturally had no objections to her decision.

Yvette stood up, but just then, she received a message from Xavier. The message only contained a single euron sign, but her expression instantly changed at the sight of it.

"What's wrong, baby?" asked Wilson, noticing the change in her emotion.

He followed her line of sight, frowning slightly when he saw the symbol in the

message. "What does this symbol mean?"

Yvette explained, "This is a secret code between me and Xav."

Xavier and Yvette shared a secret code?
