Masked In Nobility: Secrets Of Mrs. Chavez Novel by Selina Gorges

“Have you heard? Our deputy mayor, Daniel Brooks, has been dismissed and is under investigation for embezzlement and bribery. For that piece of land in the southern district a few years ago, he took about 200 million dollars all by himself. It’s unbelievable, someone said,

“I saw it this morning, too. No wonder Ethan hasn’t been to class the last few days. He’s probably too embarrassed to come,” another commented.

“His dad might end up in prison for life, someone added.

“What are you talking about? How come I don’t know anything?” said a guy in a blue checkered shirt, scratching his head. He had been so busy preparing for the school festival that he was completely out of the loop on current events.

Just as his friends were about to explain what happened. Ethan, who had not shown up for days, walked toward them. Today, Ethan wore a suit, tidying himself up early in the morning. He couldn’t stand the idea of embarrassing himself in front of his classmates, but little did he know that wearing that in the middle of summer made him look even more ridiculous.

Ethan was there to undergo the school withdrawal process. His granddad had tried everything but couldn’t save his father. The only way to keep Ethan from getting involved was to send him abroad, cutting off ties. Ethan was unwilling to, but eventually, he agreed. He would be done if even his granddad gave up on him.

Ethan had been going through a rough time lately. Ever since Daniel had been arrested, everyone in the upper echelons knew about it, and no one wanted anything to do with him. Those who had been close to him were nowhere to be found.

Ethan was at his wit’s end. In just one day, his father’s associates were taken down. Even the uncle he last spoke to couldn’t escape and was also taken away by the authorities. Still, Ethan kept his pride and looked arrogantly at the group approaching him, waiting for them to greet him. He even coughed a few times on purpose, afraid they might have not noticed him. However, the three of them exchanged glances and quickly lowered their heads as they briskly walked past Ethan, avoiding him like the plague. In the blink of an eye, the three were already far away.

Ethan’s face turned gloomy, and his anger reached its peak as he almost spun around to chase after the three people, wanting to ask them what they meant. They used to almost idolize him, eager to please him, but now they acted like he did not even exist. Ethan thought to himself, Even though my dad is gone, I can still stand on my own and build my career from the ground up. There’s no way I’m going to let those poor students look down on me!‘ He suddenly stopped in his tracks and looked ahead in disbelief.

Yvette strolled leisurely with her hands in her pockets, looking content and in good spirits. Next to her was John, carrying pile of physics test sheets. The two were chatting about the physics problems Tobias had assigned that day. Actually, it was more like John was talking all the time while Yvette occasionally added a comment or two.

I’m telling you, you only did three out of those thirty basic physics questions from last week. Mr. Sunderland is practically ambushing me in alleys!” John said, giving Yvette a sad look.

Yvette was confused and asked, “Why is that?”

John sighed and replied, “Oh, my goddess! Isn’t it obvious it’s because of you?”

Yvette took a piece of candy out of her pocket and started to eat it. She had not really been into candy lately. Now she realized there were things tastier than candy, like steak, BBQ, and lobsters. Ever since Jeremiah showed up, Yvette discovered her passion for food.

“Because of me?” Yvette asked, confused.

John looked seriously at Yvette and replied, “Goddess, you haven’t forgotten that Mr. Sunderland told us to form a study group so I can help you with your homework, have you?”

Yvette had indeed forgotten, She smiled apologetically and asked sincerely. Is it okay if I don’t do them?”

John was a bit dazed by her beautiful smile, His heart pounded hard, reminding himself to stay strong and not get smitten. but who could resist such a smile? John’s face instantly turned red.

Yvette did not think much about it, assuming he was sunburned, and even showed him some concern.

John firmly said, “No, goddess. You have to do it. Mr. Sunderland mentioned it’s a waste not to use your photographic memory. If you concentrate, you can catch up. Plus, your basics are too weak. You chose C on all three questions. It’s not wise to do that even if you were guessing. He rambled on, and Yvette could feel a headache coming on.

“Wette, why are you here? Shouldn’t you be at the police station? Ethan asked, running up to Yvette like a madman. The meat suit he wore in the morning was now wrinkled, with sweat stains around the collar and a bad smell.

John knew Ethan well. Ethan and Victor were the school’s known bullies. One came from a wealthy family, and the other had influence. They got along well and often hung out together, partying and chasing girls. Almost everyone in the upper- level students of Argrol University knew them, including John.

“Police station? What police station?” John asked in confusion. That day, he had some personal matters, so he did not go to Sky Nimbus. Thus, he had no idea what had happened. Ryan told those who went there not to disclose what happened at Sky Nimbus that day. The students from the physics department, not wanting any trouble, agreed to keep it a secret, so John

Yvette’s smile disappeared as she turned her eyes to Ethan, her voice turning cold as she said, “You’re still able to attend school Looks like life in prison for Mr. Brooks isn’t so bad after all!”

When Ethan heard that, he was immediately furious. He glared at Yvette and tried to control his rising anger. He stepped forward to grab Yvette, intending to teach her a lesson.

When John saw that things were about to turn violent, he quickly stepped forward to protect Yvette. Given Ethan’s strength. Yvette would surely get hurt if he acted.Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

Ethan’s fist flew forward, and John rushed in front of Yvette, ready to take the blow for her. As the first blow approached, John reflexively closed his eyes and thought, ‘One second… three seconds… Eh, why doesn’t it hurt?‘ John stealthily opened

At some point, Yvette stood in front of John and grabbed Ethan’s wrist with just two fingers. Ethan struggled desperately, but Yvette’s two fingers didn’t even budge.

Once again, John realized the great power of his goddess.

Yvette’s gaze at that moment was incredibly wicked. Her icy eyes cut through Ethan, making it hard for him to breathe.

She’s terrifying‘ Ethan thought. He felt a presence, powerful and overwhelming, making him feel like a dying fish gasping

Moments ago, Ethan had shown his fangs, but now his body stiffened, and under Yvette’s gaze, his mental defenses Chambled. Ethan admitted defeat, crying and begging for mercy. Please let go! I was wrong. I’ll never bother you again!

However, Yvette diel not let go. Her eyes were filled with a wicked aura. The next second, John heard a “crack sound. There was silence in the air.

A few seconds later, Ethan let out a howl that sounded like a ghost’s wailing.
