Talented Heiress: A Rose With Thorns

"If you show up in front of me again, I'll seriously mess you up." Yvette's cold voice echoed, calm and unhurried.

"I swear, you'll nev

er see me again. I'm gone!" Sheldon was frightened and in pain. After he finished his sentence, he hurriedly scrambled away as if something dangerous was after him.

Still shaken by the scene, Joseph sighed with relief once Sheldon was out of sight. He had genuinely worried that Yvette would twist Sheldon's head off and kick it like a ball.

"Yvette, are you satisfied with how things turned out today?"

Seeing Joseph's obsequious expression, Yvette wiped her hands with a

handkerchief and shrugged nonchalantly. "It was alright."

Joseph's face brightened even more with flattery. "Since you're satisfied, could we keep this between us? I'd rather not have Mr. Ades find out!"

If Colin got wind of the fact that Yvette had been wronged at their medicalnoveldrama

congress, he would undoubtedly storm in and demand justice.

Yvette smirked. "Don't worry, I won't mention it." She didn't care to tell Colin about such a

trivial matter.

Relieved, Joseph beamed. "That's great! Yvette, your first round is about to start, so I

shouldn't stick around and disturb you."

Yvette nodded lazily. "Sure."

Once Joseph left, Yvette's friends quickly surrounded her, excitement radiating from their

faces.

"Yvie, you were amazing! I doubt anyone will dare to leverage their connections to make things difficult for us again!"

"Yeah! With Yvie around, what can Estelle possibly do to us?"

Seeing the joy on their faces, Yvette couldn't help but smile slightly. Just then, her phone buzzed with a call from Jordan.

"I need to take this call." Yvette stepped out onto the balcony, answering the phone

"Ms. Murray, Evelynn has woken up!" Jordan's ecstatic voice rang through the line as soon as she picked up.

Yvette's eyebrows raised in surprise. She hadn't expected Evelynn to wake up a day early. Clearly, Evelynn had a strong will to survive.

"Ms. Murray, although Evelynn has woken up,.her condition is still serious. Do you mind

coming over to check on her?"

Hearing Jordan's pleading tone, Yvette didn't hesitate. "I'll be right there."

On the other end, Jordan sounded like he had found a savior, exclaiming with joy, "Great! I'll send a car from the Gray House to pick you up!"

"Okay." Yvette hung up and put her phone back in her pocket, returning to Madison and the

rest.

"Yvie, what's wrong? Did something happen?" Madison noticed Yvette's shift in mood and asked anxiously.

"It's nothing serious," Yvette said, lightly biting her lower lip. "But I won't be able to join you for the first round of matches today."

With their skills, they would smoothly advance to the second round, even without Yvette.
