Secretary’s Secret Lover By Zayla Quinn Chapter 168 I’m Here to Save You
Yvette shook her head. “We didn’t get back together, and we didn’t plan to in the future. I didn’t feel well
last night, so he stayed here to take care of me.”
It seemed that Yvette was explaining to Charlie. In fact, she murmured to herself.
Ever since they got divorced, Yvette didn’t mean to get back together, and she had held that she and
Lance were done.
However, what Lance just said still scared her a little.
Lance could even greet Charlie calmly. It meant Lance was determined to win. That was why he was
so calm.
The more Yvette thought about it, the angrier she became. In her eyes, Lance loved her appearance
more than her inner beauty.
Charlie felt much better for no reason, and it was wonderful.
Charlie flipped this idea and put on a smile. “What did you want to say just now?”
Yvette took a deep breath and apologized, “Charlie, I think we should stop seeing each other.”
Charlie’s face instantly became gloomy. He pinched her wrist and asked, “Why?”
Yvette was a little surprised by the sudden change in Charlie’s expression.
Moreover, Charlie pinched her hard, and it hurt her very much.
Yvette could not help but say, “Charlie, you…”
Only then did Charlie realize it. After letting go, he smiled gently. “Sorry, Yve, it’s my fault.”
Upon his smile, Yvette recovered from the shock and said, “It doesn’t matter.”
“This is the second time you dumped me. Is it because of Mr. Wolseley again?”
“I’m afraid it will affect your career, so we should keep our distance.” Yvette did not deny it.
Charlie forced a smile. “What if it’s already been affected?”
Yvette was dumbfounded and asked, “What do you mean?”
“I was fired by IA Investment Bank. They said that I manipulated the transaction, and I’m not allowed to
work in the investment bank in the future,” Charlie said casually.
But it dealt a great blow to Yvette.
Yvette thought, Charlie has been studying hard for many years but lost his job because of me, and he’s
banned by the entire industry. It must be hard to accept it.
No wonder Lance could greet Charlie so calmly in the morning. Lance must have known about this
matter long ago, or he made that.
Yvette didn’t know how to comfort Charlie. She said seriously, “Charlie, I’m sorry.”
“It’s fine.” Charlie chuckled. “I might have to return to Luxembourg in the future. My family’s business is
over
there, and others won’t be able to reach that far.”
Charlie pretended that it didn’t matter. Given that, Yvette felt bad and apologized, “Charlie, I’m sorry.
I’m really
sorry. It’s all my fault.”
Charlie smiled gently. “I really don’t blame you. In other words, I would go back to inherit family
property. Do
you feel better?”
Yvette thought, if Charlie really wanted to go back and inherit the family property, he should have gone
back
long ago.
Now he’s forced to do this.
“Yve, do you want to go with me?” Charlie suddenly asked.
“Me?” Yvette was surprised.
Although she had plans to go to Luxembourg to study, it was very strange to be together with Charlie.
At
best, they were just friends and classmates.
“Why?” Yvette asked.
In fact, Charlie had his own ideas. His father handed the company abroad over to him, and he had to
go, but
Charlie thought it was a good idea to bring Yvette with him.
In terms of appearance, Charlie admitted that he and Lance were not the same type. They had their
own
advantages and could not be compared.
As for status, Lance was powerful at home, so he might not be able to win against Charlie abroad.
Thus, Charlie thought it was easy to persuade Yvette.
Most importantly, Charlie had to admit that he seemed to care more and more about Yvette.
This made him very unhappy.
In Charlie’s eyes, women were all as lowly as the woman who gave birth to him.
That woman gave birth to him, but she did not cherish him and treated him badly.
So, when that woman was on the verge of death from taking drugs, Charlie did not shed a single tear,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtnor did
he help her call an ambulance.
Charlie just watched that woman, who deserved it, struggle to the last moment.
Charlie hid his feelings and explained, “Because I feel that you are not happy staying here.”
Although Charlie’s suggestion was very tempting, Yvette shook her head and refused him.
“I don’t have that idea for now.”
Yvette wanted to go abroad, but she didn’t want to trouble anyone.
She could make it on her own.
Charlie smiled very gently and said, “Take your time. There is still half a year. If you want to go, I will
take you
away.”
Yvette did not speak. She felt that she couldn’t leave with Charlie.
She got up and said, “Charlie, wait a moment.”
Then, Yvette went into the room, took out the gift given by Rebecca, and handed it to Charlie.
At the sight of that, Charlie said, “No need, Yve. You worked hard that day. You deserve this.”
Yvette insisted on giving him that. She would not accept anything that did not belong to her.
After Charlie walked out…
Charlie’s face turned gloomy instantly.
Thinking back to how Yvette rejected him without hesitation, Charlie felt pain in his heart.
Charlie thought, it’s impossible.
Do I really have a thing for Yvette?
His phone vibrated. Charlie picked it up and heard quietly.
He turned back to look at Yvette’s window and said coldly, “Tell her the whereabouts, and let her take
the
bait.”
The Shoal Mental Institution in New York.
Yazmin was locked in a small dark room.
It was airtight, and the stench was filling the room.
Rats ran around, and some of them would even climb onto Yazmin’s feet. She could only try her best to
endure, afraid that she would step on the dead rats.
Yazmin failed to escape again, and this was her punishment.
When she first arrived at Shoal Mental Institution, Yazmin had been complaining that she was not crazy
and
that she was forcefully sent in.
In the beginning, the nurse would ask Yazmin who sent her in.
Yazmin blurted out, “It’s the president of the Wolseley Group, Lance!”
The doctors and nurses were all stunned. Soon after, they thought that Yazmin must have gone crazy.
They kept a closer watch on her. Yazmin had to watch some videos for two hours every day to enhance
the
thought that she was crazy.
Over time, Yazmin learned to cooperate.
However, she never gave up on escaping. Yazmin wanted to escape and get back at Yvette.
Yazmin thought, without Yvette, I would have long been Mrs. Wolseley. How could I be reduced to such
a
state?
After a long time, the heavy iron door was pushed open, and a person walked in gracefully.
It was dark in the room, and Yazmin could not see the man’s appearance clearly. She could only tell
that he
was very handsome.
Yazmin wondered, can it be Lance?
Yazmin burst into tears and rushed up to hug the man, but she was kicked away by the man.
Squeak…
There was a shrill scream, and it felt furry. This made Yazmin roll on the ground.
Yazmin screamed.
She fell on the dead rats.
That wasn’t the case. Yazmin crushed the rat to death.
There was the flesh and blood of the rat on her body. It was so smelly and dirty.
Yazmin screamed hysterically and crawled forward.
She cried, “Lance, save me. Please save me.
“Lance, you can’t do this to me. I saved you before. If you treat me like this because of that bitch, you
will
regret it.
“Ah, I want to kill Yvette. I’ll kill her.”
Yazmin was in a crazy state, and it was not wrong to say that she was a madman.
“Idiot…”
In the quiet dark room, a man’s voice came. He showed great disdain.
Yazmin was stunned when she heard that. The man’s voice was clear, but it was not Lance’s voice.
She immediately realized it. “You’re not Lance. Who are you?”
“Me?” The young man chuckled. “I’m here to save you.”
Yazmin asked in shock, “You saved me? Why did you save me?”
The young man did not answer. He only asked, “Do you know you’re pregnant?”
“I’m… pregnant?”
Yazmin was astonished.
No wonder she had nausea recently. Yazmin thought that it was because it was smelly here, but she
did not expect that she would be pregnant.
Well, this child’s father must be Lucas.
Moreover, during that period, to deceive Lance, Yazmin got a lot of shots to pretend to be sick. Even if
this child was born, it would be deformed. Yazmin thought she could not want it.
Yazmin knelt on the ground to beg the young man.
“Help me. I don’t want it. Please help me!”
The man snorted. “From now on, keep the child well. I don’t care if it’s deformed or not. Remember, it
can bring you back to the top.”
“Can I? Can you really let me go back to my previous life?” Yazmin asked with tears all over her face.
“Yes.” After that, the man turned and left.
The heavy iron door slammed shut.
Yazmin found the silver lining.
Her family had given up on her, and now she could only rely on herself.
Even if it was hard, Yazmin had to bear it.
She wanted to go out and kill Yvette.
Yazmin thought, it’s all that slut’s fault.
That slut deserves to die!
On Tuesday.
Yvette went to the villa on time.
Marcus was not there, and there was only a maid at home.
Knowing that Joseph was upstairs, Yvette directly went there and knocked on the door. No one
answered so she kept knocking.
She even called Joseph’s name.
No one had ever dared to provoke Joseph when he was sleeping. He was very angry when he got up.
Joseph opened the door with a bang.
“Are you crazy?”
Joseph’s blue hair was a mess, and he had obviously just gotten up from his bed.
Yvette smiled gently. “Let’s start the class.”
Joseph rolled his eyes at her. “You’re crazy.”
After that, Joseph lay down on the bed casually. “Whatever, I won’t take it.”
Yvette directly entered the room and played the recording that had been prepared in advance. Then
she took a book and sat quietly at the side to read.
It was so noisy, and Joseph couldn’t fall asleep. He sat up and shouted, “Can you stay away from me?”
Yvette ignored him, and Joseph reached out to grab her player.
Yvette took the player directly and covered her chest. She said calmly, “If you reach out, I will say that
you
want to harass me.”
Joseph was immediately stunned and felt this move so familiar.
Joseph chased away the previous three teachers with this excuse.
He complained to Marcus that the teachers wanted to take advantage of him.
Joseph was pissed off in an instant. He was so irritable. “Who the hell is harassing you? Don’t you look
in the mirror? I am so handsome. I’m not addicted to you. Don’t slander me. I even want to say that you
are harassing me.”
Hearing this, Yvette calmly sized Joseph up. “Don’t you think that it’s more appropriate to say that you
want
to harass me?”
Joseph was speechless.
He didn’t know how to argue back.
Joseph wondered why Yvette sized him up. Wasn’t he handsome?
He thought he was the most handsome person in the world. Why did Yvette look at him mockingly?
“Come on. Tell me. Am 1 not handsome?”
Many girls in the school were his fans. Now, Joseph’s pride was shattered.
Yvette was particularly calm. “Don’t worry. You can ask Mr. Wolseley to test my character. I have no
interest in
brats who have no balls.”
Before she came here, Yvette had found how every teacher who had taught him was dealt with, and
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmshe had
long been prepared.
So, Yvette knew very well how to handle Joseph before he made a move.
In short, Joseph would have no way to fight back.
Joseph was furious. “I have my ball. Don’t talk about nonsense. Do you want to take a look?”
Yvette turned around and glanced at Joseph as if she said that he was harassing her.
Joseph was speechless. It was the first time he had encountered such a tough opponent.
“You!” Joseph pointed at Yvette and said, “Shame on you!”
“You wanted me to take a look.” Yvette glanced at Joseph.
In other words, Yvette thought Joseph was the shameless one.
Joseph was completely defeated. How could someone be more shameless than him?
Joseph got under the covers. It would be embarrassing if he cried. He was so angry and just hid under
the sheets.
Yvette, who was behind Joseph, looked at him and chuckled. She asked, “Kid, do you want to work
with me?”
“I’m not a kid!” Joseph suddenly stood up and walked over. He seemed to be taller than Yvette.
But when he thought of Yvette saying that he was harassing her, Joseph immediately took several
steps back.
Yvette smiled. It seemed that Joseph would listen.
Yvette had just entered Wabon Education Company and did not have any performance, and few
parents would choose her.
Getting Joseph was the fastest way to increase her popularity.
Yvette said, “My previous suggestion still works. Do you want to bet?”
Joseph rolled his eyes and thought for a while. “Okay, don’t regret it.”
“I won’t regret it.”
“Okay, next Friday, wait for me to tell you.” Joseph agreed.
Why would Joseph choose next Friday? Because on that day, Marcus would go abroad and no one
could
control Joseph.
At that time, Joseph would try his best to deal with Yvette.
“OK. Finish these exercises now.” Yvette took out a stack of papers.
Joseph looked at the papers and felt that he had suffered a loss.
But thinking that he would fool her and vent his anger, Joseph gritted his teeth and sat down to start
doing
the exercises.
Soon, Joseph finished the paper.
Yvette took it and had a look. As expected, Joseph scribbled on it.
She snorted. “Even a kid can do better than you.”
Joseph originally thought that Yvette would be helpless, but in the end, his confidence suffered again.
Joseph thought, how dare this woman!
After taking the paper, Joseph began to take it seriously. He wanted to prove something in front of
Yvette.
When he was done, Yvette took the paper and checked it carefully. Then she said with a faint smile,
“Not
bad.”
Joseph was in a good mood instantly and looked proud.
The next second, Joseph became alert and put on a long face.
Joseph wondered, what’s going on? Why do I feel like I want to curry favor with her?
The more he thought about it, the angrier Joseph became. When it came to an end, he said casually,
“Go to
the study and get me a book of literary history.”
Yvette refused. “I am your tutor, not a nanny. It’s time, and I have to go.”
Joseph was furious and thought Yvette was too vigilant.
“If you bring it to me, I’ll do two more papers tomorrow.”
“Really?”
“You have my word.”
“Okay.”
Yvette felt that Joseph was not stupid, but he was left behind, so he had to practice more.
If Joseph was willing to learn, Yvette thought she could do something for him sometimes.
Hearing Joseph’s words, Yvette went to the study on the second floor.
Because Joseph said that this was his study, Yvette did not overthink it. She pushed open the door and
went
in.
It was too dark inside, and Yvette turned on the light.
It was bright, and Yvette immediately saw the man sitting behind the book table. His shirt was half
open, and
so were his pants.
Moreover, a woman squatted next to him.
