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

Chapter 613 Cyrus' schemes were clear as day.

Dylan stood aside, his head bowed slightly.

It made sense that Cyrus wanted to manipulate Yvette-earning a favor was always worth a shot. However, the other party in question was Yvette. Dylan feared it might be a waste of effort for Cyrus. Reclined lazily in her chair, Yvette lifted her gaze slightly. She glanced coldly at Cyrus across from her, with eyes that were icy and sharp, bone-chilling even.

She curled her lips into a smirk, exuding an aloof yet commanding air. Her voice, as always, was cold and indifferent. "Trouble? Get rid of the root cause, and there won't be any more trouble," she said. Yvette slowly withdrew her gaze, clearly showing no intention of continuing the conversation with Cyrus anymore-or rather, she was never interested from the start.

Cyrus had approached on his own, hoping to gain sfavor, but ended up with nothing but disappointment. Frustrated by Yvette's attitude, Cyrus found himself fuming. But as her words sank in, he was shocked.

'What did Yvette mean by 'Get rid of the root cause, and there won't be any more trouble'? What exactly was she implying?' he wondered.

Upon hearing that, Dylan couldn't help but feel the corner of his mouth twitching.

Yvette's words implied destroying the entire Markos family-truly ruthless.

If the still-unconscious Leilani knew that crossing Yvette would lead to such consequences, she'd probably regret it deeply.

Dylan did not doubt at all that Yvette was serious with her bold claims. After all, during her tat Interpol, she had taken down more than her fair share of major drug lords and leaders. gang Dealing with the Markos family would be easy for Yvette.

Cyrus coughed lightly into his hand a couple of times.

He said, "Yvette, you're with Interpol, not sheartless assassin I'll handle Leilani's case, so stay out of it. You don't need to get involved." Yvette stood up from the chair, hands stuffed in her pockets. She stretched lazily before letting out a yawn. She kicked a small stone at her feet straight into the pool, watching it ripple the water before glancing nonchalantly at Cyrus.

"Oh, I'm an assassin and a pretty heartless one, too," she said.

C us was taken aback.

Since when did Yvette start going along with what he said? An assassin? The idea of an Interpol officer being an assassin would be the biggest joke ever. Still, he couldn't help but note Yvette's humor. 'Who knew she had it in her?' he thought.

Yvette noticed the obvious disbelief in Cyrus' eyes and tilted her head.

Since when did telling the truth becso unbelievable? What caused that, really?' she wondered.

1/3 10:52 Mon, Dec 30 Chapter 613 Seeing Yvette's serious expression, Cyrus dismissed it as a joke from her.

"Sure, you're an assassin working part-tas an Interpol agent. Anyway, Leilani barely survived after you dealt with her. She's paid the price, right?" he said.

Cyrus added, "Considering it happened in the presidential palace, it'd be hard forto explain things. Let's just drop the matter, okay?" +5 Yvette had an air of rebellion, her expression wild and unruly. The corner of her mouth curled upwards as she said, "Oh, but I don't think that's enough." Cyrus knew Yvette wouldn't let Leilani off the hook so easily. The mention of "burden" and "fool" was enough to go past Yvette's patience. She wouldn't be herself if she could let Leilani go just like that. Before Cyrus could say anything else, Leilani, lying on the ground, coughed up water and regained consciousness.

Amanda rushed over and said, "Ms. Markos! Ms. Markos! You're awake!" As soon as Leilani woke up, the first thing she did was look for Yvette.

When Leilani spotted Yvette standing not far away, casually chatting with Cyrus, she looked like a demon resurrected out of hell.

Ignoring her frail state, she let out a crazed scream, "Take her down! I want her destroyed! I want her gone! The Markos family will tear you apart and make you wish you were never born!" Even now, Leilani continued to hurl threats at Yvette. All her life, she bullied others at school using her family's status, and this was the first tshe had been beaten like this. She swore that even beyond the grave, she wouldn't spare Yvette. Leilani's eyes glinted with venom, her entire body soaking wet. She did not realize she was fully exposed now. Amanda quickly grabbed her cold hands.

'Ms. Markos must've lost her mind. Can't she see that Mr. Becker is still standing there? If he grew displeased with her, the engagement would surely be called off,' she thought.

Amanda whispered to her, "Ms. Markos, Mr. Becker is also here.

That mention of Cyrus calmed the hysterical Leilani instantly. Regaining sof her rationality, she hurriedly tidied her hair.

She did not realize that her face was now a colorful mess of smeared mascara, blusher, foundation, and eyeshadow. She looked like a clown. The more she tried to fix it, the more ridiculous she looked. Leilani glanced at Cyrus and immediately shifted her demeanor From a madwoman, she switched to a pitiful, helpless victim who had been wronged. Crying, she began pouring out her grievances to him. She had no idea that Cyrus had witnessed everything from the start Every word she had uttered, every small gesture- Cyrus and Dylan had seen and heard it all clearly.

ilani said, "Mr. Becker, the woman beside you is insane! She convinced Ms. Becker to hitand to drownby throwinginto the pool!" my maid. She even tried -She added, "Yvette is a demon, Mr. Becker! You have to stand up for me. I'll report this to the police and have her arrested for intentional assault. My father will handjustice when he finds out about this."

Leilani shivered from the cold, barely able to speak. But she managed to stammer through her and finished everything she had to say. She expected Cyrus to explode in rage upon hearing all that, but a few seconds passed, and he showed no reaction. 2/3 Chapter 613 +5 Leilani stiffly lifted her head, only to meet Cyrus' cold and somber face, tinged with a trace of mockery.

Clearing his throat, Cyrus looked her in the eye and said in a low voice, "Sure, Yvette might be crazy, but didn't you also call Alice an idiot and a burden?"

"Marrying Alice off the second you enter the presidential palace? If you don't think Demetrius' sister and my niece, Alice, is good enough, then clearly the presidential palace is beneath the Markos family, too," he added. "And since when did you becDemetrius' fiancée? Could you givea proper explanation for it?" Cyrus asked.

Cyrus' words left Leilani, who had just regained scomposure, completely stunned. She hadn't expected Cyrus himself to overhear everything she said in the garden and by the pool.

Leilani felt her vision fade to black. A dizzy spell hit her, and the world felt like it was spinning. She couldn't find any word to respond to Cyrus M interrogation. Her body shook uncontrollably, and she was too afraid to meet his gaze. Beside her, Amanda was equally shocked. This was the end; the marriage between the president and the Markos family was completely ruined. At that moment, both Leilani and Amanda felt as if they had been stripped bare and thrown out into the street, utterly humiliated.
