âWow, thanks for that.â Yvette lightly tapped her tongue against her teeth, fixing him with a halfâ
smile.
Jasper chuckled, completely oblivious to any danger. âYvette, why are you being so polite? Weâre family, no need for that!â
Yvette was silent.
Jasper didnât notice Yvetteâs exasperation and continued, âYvette, donât worry. Iâll call Wilson right now to come overâ¦â
âIâm just afraid you wonât make it until Mr. Quinn arrives!â Carson interrupted him sharply, his eyes bloodshot.
If Wilson arrived, he was done for! He had to act first!
âWhatâs the fuss here?â
The noise had attracted Blake Schlaferâs attention. He was covered in tattooed sleeves, with a big head and big ears, exuding an intimidating airâclearly not someone to mess with.
Upon seeing him, Carson looked as if he had found a savior and rushed over eagerly.
âMr. Schlafer, theyâre causing trouble in the underground racing track! You canât let them off easily;
hurry up and grab them!â
âCausing trouble?â Blakeâs face instantly darkened. âDo you know this is Master Xevâs territory? Iâd like to see who dares to cause trouble here!â
With so many of them and only the two of them, Jasper frowned tightly, positioning himself protectively in front of Yvette. He whispered urgently, âYvette, Iâll hold them off; you run!â
âRun?â Yvette blinked lazily, her demeanor casual. âWhy would I run?â
âBecause if you donât, theyâll catch you!â Jasper was frantic. âYvette, you have to hurry and escapeâ¦â
âItâs just you two little brats causing trouble on my territory, rightâ¦â
Blake approached them with a fierce expression, but before he could finish his threat, he suddenly locked eyes with Yvetteâs beautiful, icy gaze. He initially showed disbelief, then instinctively bent down, preparing to kneel.
âMaster-
Yvette shot him a look, silently stopping him from kneeling.
Black quickly realized she didnât want her identity exposed and stood straight again. He lost all his earlier bravado, now looking at her with a submissive demeanor.
âMr. Schlafer, itâs these two causing trouble; what are you waiting for? Hurry up and grab them.â
When Carson saw Blakeâs sudden change in attitude, he felt confused and couldnât help but urge him forward. But before he could finish his sentence, Blake punched him to the ground.
âShut up! This isnât your place to speak!â Blake glared at him angrily.
This fool had nearly made him offend Yvette! Even if he had the guts, he would never dare to grab her!
âAh!â Carson cried out in pain, his face contorted. âMr. Schlafer, why did you hit me? They are the ones causing trouble and breaking the rules.
âCarson, do you still have any shame? You clearly lost but refuse to admit it, and now youâre slandering us for causing trouble!â
Jasper didnât understand why Blake had suddenly changed his attitude, but watching this scene felt especially satisfying.
Yvetteâs indifferent gaze fell on him, her tone flat yet somehow instilling fear.
âYou know better than I do how to handle cheaters, right?â
âYâYes! Ms. Murray, I will definitely follow the rules!â Blake replied immediately, his tone respectful. He then turned to instruct his men, âDrag him to the back and deal with him; donât dirty Ms. Murrayâs eyes.â
âYes, Mr. Schlafer!â
