Chapter 41
“I understand now, Sean,” Yasmin said tearfully as she ran upstairs, though her steps were exceptionally slow. It was evident the hoped Sean would come alter and comfort her.
Unfortunately for her, Sean’s attention was entirely on Yvette, and he didn’t notice Yasmin at all.
“Yvie, you handled that perfectly. Anytime something like this happens, handle it the same way, and no one will dare to mess with you.
“You’re my sister, and I’ll protect you. If anyone ever bullies you, just tell me, and I’ll take care of it!”
Sean’s reputation as an influential figure in Jubilife City wasn’t for nothing! If anyone dared to mess with Yvette, they’d have to answer to him.
Seeing his sincerity, Yvette felt a warm surge in her heart. She blinked gently. Maybe she’d go easy on him today and cut his training short by
an hour.
“Yvette, I’m really sorry about what happened this morning,” Sean apologized earnestly.
His handsome face was filled with guilt. “I shouldn’t have snapped at you without knowing the full story. I promise I won’t do that again. Can you forgive me this time?”
Feeling his genuine remorse, Yvette smiled softly, and her delicate face lit up with a gentle expression.

Her smile caught Sean’s breath. His heart was melting, and he couldn’t help but reach out to ruffle her hair. Yvette was just too sweet and understanding.
Meanwhile, Yasmin seethed with jealousy as she watched the scene untoki from upstairs. Sean had become so kind to Yvette in such a short time. That bitch had to be using some trick!
She couldn’t let Yvette continue like this. Yasmin vowed to find a way to win back all their affection.
At that moment, Yvette received several messages on her phone.
“Hey Yvie, heard you’re in Jubilite Ciry now. Want to join us at Jubilife University?
“Please, Yvie. Come to Jubilife University. You can pick any major you like.”
“Vvie, you’ll be sent to school by the Murrays anyway. Why not come to Jubilife University?”
“Vvie, are you really not coming to Jubilife University? Don’t make me get on my knees and beg you!”
Yvette sighed and rubbed her temples. She hadn’t decided whether to continue her studies yet or which college to attend, for that matter
Later that evening, Yasmin had regained her composure, showing no trace of her earlier grievance. She was back to joking and currying lavor with Irwin and Yara to lighten their mood.
Yasmin knew that only by pleasing Irwin and Yara could she secure the most benefits in this house.
“Your short break ends tomorrow, and you’ll have to be back to school!” Irwin turned to Yvette with a gentle smile.
“‘Yvie, have you thought about which school you want to attend? Just tell me. I’ll make the arrangements,” he added.
Yara smiled and chimed, “Yasmin and Sean are both at Jubilife University, Yvie. Do you want to join them there?”
Before Yvette could respond, Yasmin quickly interjected, “I’d be so happy if you came to Jubilife University, Wie. But it’s a top school with strict admission standards. I’m just worried you might not pass their entrance test”
Though Yasmin’s words sounded concerned, her eyes betrayed a hint of disdain.
With Yvette’s poor education in the countryside, Yasmin thought it would be impossible for Yvette to get into Jubilite University!
