Despite her old age, Martha was agile. Jasper winced as he received several hits from her cane.
âArenât people saying that Victoria is my future sisterâinâlaw? How did it become Yvie?â Jasper asked.
âNonsense!â Martha retorted. She got even angrier at his words and hit him even harder.
âWhat kind of rumors are those? I only recognize Yvie as my future granddaughterâinâlaw! If I discover whoâs spreading those rumors, Iâll make them pay!â
âOuchâ¦â Jasperâs eyes widened in shock, clearly surprised. His gaze became mournful. It turned out everything Yvette had told him was true. She was indeed his future sisterâinâlaw, He finally understood why Sean and Ashton had been so indifferent to him today. It wasnât because they discovered his secret plan to pursue Yvette but because Wilson had already claimed Yvette.
âHow can Wilson be so shameless? Yvie is even younger than me. Shame on him for being in a May- December relationshipâ¦â
While Jasper was still grumbling softly, he felt an increasing chill behind him. Confused, he turned to look and saw Wilson staring at him with an unfathomable smirk.
A dangerous air radiated from him.
âI didnât realize you had so many complaints about me, âWilson⦠YâYouâre backâ¦â
Jasperâs legs weakened in fear. Remembering what he had just said, his terror deepened. He hastily stumbled to Marthaâs side.
âGrandma⦠Save meâ¦â
A few more hits from Marthaâs cane would be far better than falling into Wilsonâs hands, Seeing how terrified Jasper was, Martha chuckled gleefully, âServes you right for trying to steal Willâs fiancee. He has every right to give you a lesson!â
At the same time, Martha sighed in and felt troubled. If only the Murray family had enough daughters for both of her grandsons. That way, she wouldnât have had to worry anymore!
Jasper shrank back in fear and turned to Yvette for help. âYvie⦠My future sisterâinâlaw, please save me!â
Yvette had seen enough of the charade. She smiled faintly and said indifferently, âDonât worry, Iâve got your back.â
Jasper was so touched that he almost wanted to bow to her. He quickly sidled up to Yvette. âYvie, Iâll do everything you say from now on!â
Seeing Jasperâs behavior, a look of disdain flashed across Wilsonâs expression. He strode toward Yvette.
Jasper mistakenly thought Wilson was coming for him and immediately wailed. âWilson, Iâve already received a beating from Grandma. You canât beat me againâ¦â
However, Wilson didnât even glance at him. He walked straight to Yvette, took the cold drink from her, and advised in a magnetic voice.
âNo cold drinks, or youâll be in pain again next time.â
Although Wilsonâs words were vague, Yvette understood immediately and blushed. She glared at him, signaling him to stop talking..
Wilson obediently fell silent. With a doting chuckle, he began to peel Yvetteâs favorite grapes for her.
Upon seeing this, Jasperâs eyes nearly popped out.
He couldnât believe that was his elder brother!
