Chapter 285: A Rose 289

When Yvette returned to Murray Manor, Ashton and Sean surrounded her with concern and questions.

“Ash, Sean, I’m really fine.”

Sean and Ashton remained worried. “Yvie, if anything like this happens again, you must tell us.”

“That’s right. We’re your brothers, and it’s our job to protect you.”

The warmth Yvette felt in her heart deepened at their words. She nodded obediently. “Got it. Did you tell Mom and Dad about this?”

“No, we didn’t want to worry Mom.”

Yvette nodded in understanding and headed toward Yara’s room to check her pulse. As she reached the door, she overheard Irwin and Yara talking inside.

“Darling, did you see today’s news? How could Wilson do this? Doesn’t he know he’s engaged to Yvie? How dare he publicly announce that another woman will be the future lady of the Quirin family? This is such an insult to Yvie.”

According to the agreement between the two families, Yvette was supposed to be the future lady of the Quinn family.

Yara’s anger flared. “This is outrageous. He’s engaged to Yvie but is with another woman. The marriage. has to be called off.”

Irwin was also furious. However, seeing Yara so worked up, he grew concerned about her health and began to soothe her.

“Calm down, dear. If Wilson is really such a jerk, I’ll definitely make sure to call off his engagement with Yvie.

‘But, dear, as you know, this engagement was set by Mom and Mrs. Quinn Senior. Mrs. Quinn Senior is very strict about promises. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have waited all these years without calling off the engagement, even when Yvie went missing.

“If we call it off now, she’ll definitely refuse. I’ll first find out who the lady Wilson is interested in and gather concrete evidence before going to the Quinn Manor to annul the engagement. Even if Mrs.

Quinn Senior tries to insist, this marriage will be called off for sure.

Yara thought it over and nodded in agreement. “You’re right, darling. Let’s find out about that lady’s identity first, then we can proceed with the annulment She was also curious about what kind of lady would make Wilson disregard the engagement and publicly declare his affection.

The room was well soundproofed, so Yvette didn’t catch the full details of their conversation. When she entered, Yara and Irwin quickly stopped talking.

“Yvie, you’re back!” Yara reached out and took her hand, smiling warmly as always.

Both Yara and Irwin were on the same page. They didn’t want to burden Yvette with these worries.

Yvette, not one to pry, sensed that her parents were keeping something from her but chose not to dwell on it. After checking Yara’s pulse, she went to her room to rest.

She was experiencing some menstrual pain, so she lay on the bed, missing the warmth of Wilson’s comforting hand.

As soon as this thought crossed her mind, she received a video call from Wilson.

“Is your stomach still hurting?” His deep voice was even more comforting through the screen.

Yvette nodded. “A little.”

Wilson, understanding her well, knew she would only admit to pain if it were severe. His eyes revealed his heartache as he spoke softly. “Baby, I’ll make sure you don’t hurt like this anymore.”

After soothing Yvette to sleep, Wilson reluctantly ended the video call and made his way to the dungeon.

When the guards at the entrance saw him, they immediately stepped aside respectfully. “Welcome, Mr. Quinn.”
