Chapter 397: A Rose 402

A Rose 402 Seeing Richard kneeling on the ground with a fawning expression, Jared almost lost his mind. “Dad, why are you kneeling to this bitch? If word gets out, It’ll be a disgrace to the Scott family!”

“Shut up!” Richard roared, cutting him off. He grabbed Jared and forced him to kneel as well. “Kneel before Master Xev.”

Master Xev? Everyone gasped in shock upon hearing the name.

The young woman turned out to be the infamous Master Xev, the ruler of the underworld feared by both the righteous and the corrupt alike.

“Weren’t you all just happily placing bets?” Yvette’s enchanting fox–like eyes glimmered as she lazily glanced around, exuding an overwhelming aura of intimidation!

“If I remember correctly, you were betting on how many punches it would take to kill me. Sorry to disappoint.”

As they recalled their earlier words, their faces turned deathly pale, and they began to plead for mercy.

“Master Xev, please forgive us.”

Yvette’s gaze grew colder as she delivered a fierce kick to Richard, who was still kneeling. The terrifying air around her intensified.

“I handed you the power to rule the underworld, and this is how you manage it?”

When Yvette was 15, she had been urgently called back to the Dark Organization. She had no time to manage both groups, so she had entrusted the underworld to Richard.

Since then, Yvette had devoted all her energy to medicine and chip development, completely forgetting about this. Even if she had remembered, she wouldn’t have had time to manage it.

Richard nearly blacked out from the force of the kick, but he gritted his teeth and begged, “Master Xev please calm down.”

Yvette looked at him icily. “What did I tell you when I left?”

Richard’s fear deepened as he stammered, “Y–You said that even in the dark underworld, there should be no senseless killing.”

Yvette let out a cold, biting laugh. “You remember that, yet you’ve turned this place into a hell where the rich satisfy their twisted desires.”

Richard’s body trembled as he dropped to his knees, bowing repeatedly. “Master Xev, I’m sorry.”

Collin, who had rushed over with Wilson, stood dumbfounded by the scene unfolding before him. “Wow! Richard is quivering like a terrified child in front of Yvette.”

Everyone knew that since Richard had been tasked to rule the underworld by Master Xev, he had grown arrogant and domineering. He feared no one except the Quinn and Murray families.

Wilson rushed to the underground boxing ring as soon as he learned that Yvette was there, fearing she might be in danger. But now that Richard was on his knees before Yvette, who would dare lay a finger on her?

Wilson glanced at Yvette’s mesmerizing eyes and decided to approach her. He was unable to hide the concern etched in his eyes.

Yvette noticed Wilson and Collin comin settle our score later. For now, keep your mouths shut, and don’t reveal my identity in front of them.”

“Of course! Master Xev, I swear, I won’t say a word.” Richard nodded frantically, By the time he finished speaking, Wilson had already reached Yvette. The sight of blood on her hands made his already striking features darken with an ominous fury.

“Don’t worry. It’s not my blood,” Yvette quickly assured him.

Wilson’s expression softened slightly at her words, and he pulled out a handkerchief, carefully wiping her hands clean.

Yvette felt a warm flutter in her chest, but her thoughts were still on Madison, who was unconscious. Noticing her concern, Wilson turned to Samuel and ordered, “Take her to the car and get her to the hospital.”

“Yes, Mr. Quinn,” Samuel responded respectfully Seeing this, Richard’s face twisted in confusion. “Why is Mr. Quinn being so gentle with her?”

Collin said eagerly, “Let me fill you in–she’s Collin’s fiancée.”

The moment those words registered, Richard’s legs weakened and he could barely keep himself upright.

Still, Collin wasn’t finished. With a mischievous grin, he added, “Oh, and by the way, she’s also Jacob’s precious sister.”

Richard’s knees buckled and he nearly fainted. He was utterly doomed.

Master Xev had many other identities, and Richard couldn’t afford to offend any of them.

A quick 15 minutes later, the car came to a smooth stop at the hospital.

Wilson, fully aware of how worried Yvette was about Madison, had already taken care of everything. As soon as they arrived, Madison was rushed into the emergency room.

Thankfully, Yvette had arrived just in time; Madison’s injuries were only superficial, with no threat to her life.

“Jacob.” The call connected immediately when Yvette dialed for Jacob.

“Yvie, what’s the matter? Why are you calling me?” he asked in surprise. This was the first time his precious sister had ever called him.

Yvette didn’t bother with small talk. “Jacob, I want you to withdraw your investment in the Robertson family.”

She had just confirmed that the Murray family was the Robertson family’s largest investor. If they pulled out, the Roberstons would be in immediate financial trouble.

Without any hesitation or questions, Jacob agreed. “Alright, Yvie. I’ll take care of it right away.”

Yvette’s lips curved into a slight smile. “Thank you, Jacob.”

On the other end of the line, Jacob replied gleefully, “There’s no need to thank me.”

Madison, who had been lying in the hospital bed, had woken up at some point. After seeing that Yvette’s phone conversation had ended, she softly called out, “Yvie…” This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

Noticing Madison’s weak state, the coldness in Yvette’s eyes deepened. She had already pieced everything together. Most of Madison’s injuries were inflicted by Alice, who then had her thrown into the underground boxing ring.

“Don’t worry. I’ll make sure they pay for what they did. Pulling out the investment is just the start. Focus on recovering. Once you’re better, I’ll let you take your revenge,” Yvette said gently.

Tears welled up in Madison’s eyes as she uttered, “Thank you, Yvie.”

Alice was busy unwinding in a beauty salon, maintaining the poised demeanor of a lady from high society -but her mind was swirling with vicious thoughts.

She was absolutely glowing at the thought of Madison suffering a fate worse than death in the underground boxing ring. That was her punishment for crossing Alice.

The next person Alice was going to punish was Yvette. She had humiliated her too many times.
