Masked In Nobility: Secrets Of Mrs. Chavez

Chapter 217



In disguise, Winona made her way cautiously to a small restaurant near the address Jason had given her yesterday. She covered her nose when she noticed the poor hygiene of the place, but she quickly ordered a few dishes, making sure not to draw any suspicion.

The owner of the restaurant, noticing that Winona was dressed unusually for the hot weather, felt curious, but she didn’t ask any questions. It was clear from Winona’s clothes that she was someone of wealth, so the owner didn’t care to probe further.

Before heading to the restaurant, Winona had already called the police from a payphone, telling them about Jason’s hideout. If the timing was right, the police would be there to arrest him in twenty minutes.Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.

Winona didn’t want any potential danger to stand in the way of her future. She had to eliminate Jason even though he believed her unconditionally

Ten minutes later, the sound of sirens cut through the air as three police cars sped by.

Winona didn’t expect the police to respond so quickly. She thought, ‘How did they get here so quickly? Little did she know as soon as her report had reached the police station, they immediately passed the intel directly to Zane, who rushed out of the police station with a group of officers, ensuring they acted fast before Jason could slip away.

Winona watched from her table by the window as the police cars rushed past She quickly paid her bill, left the restaurant, and ducked into a nearby alley. Once she got there, she took out her phone and called Jason.

To avoid leaving any trace, she used an illegitimate card she had bought from overseas.

Jason hid in an unfinished building with all his attention on the phone, trembling with fear all night. Finally, his phone rang He grabbed it immediately, his hands shaking with excitement when he heard Winona’s voice. He was glad that she didn’t lie to him or give up on him. “Hello, Ms. Chambers? Where are you? I’ve been waiting for you.”

Winona felt a wave of disgust wash over her the moment she heard Jason’s voice. She replied sweetly, T’m sorry, Mr. Wilson. I may be late. The baby kept troubling me and my mother-in-law insisted on bringing a family doctor over. It has taken more time than I expected. I’m already out of the house, but I need about an hour to get there.”

Jason’s heart sank, but he understood the difficulties Winona must be going through with the pregnancy. Therefore, he tried to comfort her, “It’s okay, Ms. Chambers, no rush. I’ll wait for you. An hour is nothing”

However, as soon as Jason finished speaking, he heard the sirens coming from outside the unfinished building. Panic hit him like a wave, his face draining of color. His hand, still holding the phone, began to tremble uncontrollably.

He thought in despair, ‘Are the police here? Am I done?’ He knew exactly what was coming.

Winona, hearing the sirens blaring on the phone, couldn’t help but smirk. She feigned innocence and asked with concern, “What’s wrong, Mr. Wilson? Don’t worry, I’ll be there as soon as I can. You just make sure to hide well, okay?”

Jason was trembling. After a long pause, he let out a heavy sigh of resignation. “You don’t need to come, Ms. Chambers. The police are already here. There’s no chance for me anymore. Please don’t come. I swear I won’t drag you into this. If you get to see your mother one day, please tell her that she’s the only one I love. Ms. Chambers, I’ll protect you and take the blame.

Winona was a bit taken aback. She didn’t expect Jason to be so loyal to her mother, but now that it had come to this, she had no choice but to sacrifice him.

Winona feigned surprise and let out a dramatic scream, pretending to choke back tears. “It’s all my fault. If only I had come sooner, you wouldn’t have been caught, Mr. Wilson, I… I’m so sorry. I’m gonna turn myself in.”

Jason was deeply moved by her words. He quickly responded, “None of this is your fault, Ms. Chambers. It’s all on me. I have to hang up now and destroy the phone. No one will ever know about our conversation.”

Winona had been waiting for Jason to say this. She would never leave any traces behind.

Jason immediately hung up the phone, gritting his teeth as he smashed the phone into pieces. He then pulled out the SIM card and tossed it into a stinking puddle where no one would notice.

After doing this, he collapsed onto the concrete floor of the unfinished building, waiting for the police to arrive.

Winona put away her phone and walked out of the alley, feeling weight lift off her shoulders. She said those words just to get Jason to willingly take the blame for her. Only if he was determined to protect her would he be able to withstand the pressure from the police and shoulder all the blame.

At Jeremiah’s villa, Yvette had just finished showering. She walked into the walk-in closet, opening the door to find an entire collection of black-and-white casual outfits, all simple and neat, without any logos. They were all custom-made, exactly her style.

A hint of a smile appeared on her face. She didn’t expect Jeremiah to be so thoughtful.

Jeremiah knocked on the door and said in a husky tone that was still slightly groggy from just waking up, “Are you up? Breakfast’s ready

Yvette dressed quickly in a black sports outfit, her expression sharp and cool. I’m ready. She opened the door.

Jeremiah glanced at her, taking her hand and leading her downstairs.

On the dining table downstairs were some sandwiches Jeremiah made. Yvette’s sandwich had an extra egg on it, and there was a cup of milk to go with it. Jeremiah had the same, but instead of milk, he had black coffee.

Yvette sat down, took a sip of milk, and a little bit of milk smeared on the corner of her mouth. Jeremiah’s eyes darkened as he watched her, but he quickly looked away, pretending not to notice.

Yvette glanced at the black coffee in his hand and protested, “I want that too.”

Jeremiah paused for a moment and smiled gently, saying, “Maybe next time. Have the milk this time.”

Just then, Andrew pushed open the door and walked in. He regretted coming so quickly. After all, he didn’t want to see them act so intimately.

Bonnie, who had been standing behind Andrew, pushed him aside, “Why aren’t you moving? You’re blocking the way.”

Both Jeremiah and Yvette looked up at the door. When they were eating steak yesterday, Yvette had promised to go shopping with Bonnie today. Every time Bonnie was around Yvette, her attention was completely fixed on her: “I missed you so much, Yve.”

Jeremiah took a sip of his black coffee with a blank face. He didn’t like it when everyone around Yvette flattered her.

Andrew stood with his hands in his pockets, casually leaning against the doorframe. His hair was styled in a deliberately rebellious way, exuding a bit of the tough-guy vibe. “You’re being a little too much, Bonnie. We were eating steak together last night, and now you’re acting like you haven’t seen Yvette for a long time. Come on, are you daring or what?”

Jeremiah, who had been sipping his coffee with his head lowered, found himself surprisingly agreeing with Andrew’s words. Bonnie, sitting next to Yvette, made a face at Andrew, sticking out her tongue in defiance. “Mind your own business.” Andrew smirked, pointing at Jeremiah. “Why don’t you ask Jeremiah if he minds it?”

Bonnie glanced at Jeremiah, who was coolly sipping his coffee, and suddenly felt timid. She quickly shrank back and felt a chill run down her spine, thinking. Just wait, Andrew

Jeremiah glanced at Bonnie with a blank face. Feeling somehow frightened, Bonnie shuffled her chair a little away from

Yvette. She knew that he wasn’t happy about her being so close to his woman.
