Chapter 597
Sweet Subterfuge
âHelp! Someone heb!â
Xavierâs office was not that big, and it was not furnished with soundproofing equipment. So. Yvelleâs howls could be clearly heard by the others outside.
lan did not expect to come back to this after stepping out for a few minutes. Everyone in the office was staring at each other, at a complete loss of what to do.
âI this goes on. Mr. Seymour may really beat his wile to death-
âShould we try to break it up? Itâs not good if someone dies.â
âIf you want to break it up, go right ahead! At any rate, I wonât be the one doing it!
After a discussion, the job of breaking up the light between Xavier and Yvette fell on larâs head as he was the most trusted subordinate of their boss.
âItâs up to you now. Mr. Price!â
âYou can do it, lan, we believe in you!â
Although lan was not willing to risk having Xavierâs rage directed at him, his fear grew stronger when Yvelleâs howls grew weaker.
The security sent by the management arrived late, and when they saw the mess in the clice, they asked quickly, âWhere is she? Where did she go?â
lan quickly pached them. âPlease wait outside for now, I will call you later.â
Though the guards were confused, they left awkwardly after confirming that lan did not need them there.
lan went to knock on Xavierâs office door, frantically exclaiming, âMr. Seymour! Mr. Seymour Securityâs here!â
Xavier had aread, lost his rationality, His body was under the control of his emotions and not his brain.
The sounds of lanâs pounding on the door linally brought him back, and when he heard the word âsecurity,â he stopped at once.
Yvette was lying motionlessly on the floor, her eyes Fall-lidded, looking like a lifeless ragdol. Xavier panicked at once. He quickly crouched down to put two lingers under Yvetteâs rose. Thankfully, she was still breathing, albeit rather weakly.
Xavier did not dare delay further and quickly let an in. lan was also shocked when he saw Yvetteâs slate on the floor, âMr. Seymour, Mrs. Seymour is â He began to tremble.
Xavier pretended to be calm. âSheâs not dead.â
lan released a sigh of relief at that.
âGive everyone the day off, and tell them to leave now. After that find a way to gel Yvelle out of here and send her to the hospital. Donât let her die.â Xavier instructed.
âYes, sir.â lan followed his instructions and forced everyone to pack up and leave In the shortest time possible. He also found an excuse to send the security guards waiting at the reception desk away.
Once everyone was gone, lan carried Yvelle on his back and walked down the stairs to avoid the people in the buliding. He carefully entered the car park this way.
However, before he could find Xavierâs car, several flashes blinded him, and the sounds of a camera shuller clicking could be heard, lan spun around with alertness and saw an old, black Santana driving toward the exit not lat away.
