Masked In Nobility: Secrets Of Mrs. Chavez

A plain–looking police officer approached Robert and asked, “Hello, how can I assist you?”Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.

Robert, still seething with anger, didn’t bother to read the situation. He was about to lash out, but Victor, who had learned to be more tactful, stepped in before him. “Hello, we are the family of the pregnant woman involved in today’s shooting at Skyline Plaza. We’re here to handle this matter.”

Robert huffed, maintaining his haughty demeanor, and launched into a tirade directed at the young officer. “We are the family of Winona, the pregnant woman. She is still in the hospital. Have you arrested that criminal, Yvette? This kind of evil person must be severely punished. She should never be allowed to harm society again. Our lawyers are on their way, and we will see this through to the end. She needs to rot in jail, or our Carter family will have been in Seacrity for nothing all these years.”

The plain–looking officer, seeing Robert’s rudeness, lost his patience. He was there to serve the people, but he wasn’t about to cater to someone who came in acting so high and mighty, thinking they could insult others just because they had a bit of money. He adopted a strictly professional tone. “The suspect you mentioned is currently in the interrogation room. There are seats over there, please wait there and do not disturb others. Thank you for your cooperation. With that, he turned and returned to his desk, continuing to sort through case files.

Robert’s face fell when the plain–looking officer dismissed him. He was not used to being treated with such cold indifference. He was about to step forward and argue, but Victor quickly grabbed his arm, pulling him back. Leaning in, Victor’s eyes flashed with a deep–seated resentment. “Dad, don’t cause a scene. This is a police station. The Carter family isn’t powerful enough to control everything here. If Grandpa finds out, do you really want to face the family’s punishment again?”

Robert, despite his tough exterior, immediately backed down. He knew all too well how harsh his father could be. In his younger days, a few mistakes had earned him beatings that left him bruised and bleeding. The memory of those painful experiences still haunted him.

Seeing that Robert had calmed down, Victor gave him a cold look “Let’s go, Dad. We’ll sit over there for a while. Yvette has committed a serious offense; it won’t be resolved quickly. Didn’t you call the lawyer? Let’s wait for him.”

Robert, somewhat surprised by Victor’s unusual behavior, didn’t have time to think further as Victor led him to the waiting arca.

Bonnie had just finished her box of takeout and was about to get up when she heard someone calling her name. She looked up and saw Victor approaching. Her expression turned cold. Victor, who is as bad as Winona, is here for one reason to cause trouble for Yvette on Winona’s behalf‘ She thought, her eyes narrowing as she watched him approach.

Victor walked up to Bonnie and asked in an interrogative tone, “What are you doing here?”

Bonnie forcefully threw the lunch box into the trash can and sat back down. “What’s it to you?”

Victor was taken aback, surprisingly not losing his temper. Robert, who had been following behind, stepped forward and took a look at Bonnie. His eyes lit up, and he leered at her. ‘She wasn’t stunningly beautiful, but her cute appearance was particularly appealing. Robert thought. “Are you here for Yvette? Do you know about her pulling a gun on Winona Victor asked.

Bonnie glared at Victor, exuding a formidable presence. She spoke each word with deliberate clarity. “It’s all Winona’s fault. It has nothing to do with Yve. If Winona hadn’t started trouble and slapped me, Yve wouldn’t have gotten angry. You haven’t even figured out what happened, and you’re already trying to defend your fiancée. You two are a perfect match, like snakes and rats.

‘Since I’ve been hanging out with Yve, my ability to stand up for myself has really improved. I can’t back down now, I can’t Net Yve down. Bonnie thought, silently cheering herself on

Victor’s face turned a shade of green, but he didn’t retort. Robert, however, couldn’t sit still. Winona was his precious now, and he couldn’t let anyone talk about her like that. “How can you be so disrespectful? Winona is pregnant, and it’s normal for her to have mood swings. She just slapped you; how much could it hurt? Can’t you just take it? Haven’t you heard the saying.

‘take a step back and the world opens up? You’re a student at Argol University. What are you even arguing with a pregnant woman for?”

Bonnie was stunned by Robert’s shameless remarks. Victor also shifted uncomfortably, feeling a bit speechless for the first time. ‘Dad really did go to great lengths to protect Winona. Victor thought.

Bonnie’s face flushed with anger as she looked at the smug Roben. She took a deep breath. “It’s not you who beat me; it’s your shamelessness.”

Robert, hearing this, opened his mouth to reprimand Bonnie, using his status to his advantage. But then a familiar voice came from a distance. “Bonnie?”

Jeremiah and Andrew had just entered through the police station door. The voice was Andrew’s, Bonnie looked at Andrew, suddenly feeling a bit lost.

Victor and Robert both turned around and saw Jeremiah. A chillan down their spines. This was the man even Wyatt addressed as “Mr. Chavez. How could they forget that he was Yvette’s biggest supporter?

Andrew approached, and when he saw the clear handprint on Bonnie’s face, he stopped abruptly. Then, as if nothing had happened, he continued walking. As he passed by Victor and Robert, his gaze was as sharp as knives, cutting through them.

Stopping in front of Bonnie, Andrew fixed his eyes on the handprint, his tone a mix of frustration and tenderness. “Who did this?

Bonnie’s eyes instantly welled up with tears. She bit her lip, unable to speak, as the tears fell. Andrew, at a loss, used his

big sleeve to wipe away her tears, his voice softening. Tm just asking, you know. If you don’t want to say, it’s okay. It’s not a deal, don’t cry.”

Bonnie hiccupped through her sobs, looking up at Andrew with teary eyes. A strange, tingling sensation rose in Andrew, making him look away awkwardly. Andrew felt an odd, tingling sensation in his chest, causing him to look away awkwardly. Bonnie, while wiping her tears, explained, “It was Winona. Yve and I were shopping, and when Yve went to the restroom, I wandered around a bit. That’s when I ran into Winona. She started the trouble, and I couldn’t avoid it. She hit me.”

Andrew’s eyes suddenly sharpened, and the carefree demeanor he usually carried vanished, replaced by a deep, cold, and ruthless presence. “Winona? Is she still alive?”

Bonnie shook her head, still in a daze. “No, but then Yve came and told me to hit her back. I slapped her twice, and when we left, she fainted. She’s probably in the hospital now,”

Andrew turned to look at Robert and Victor, his eyes flashing with a cold light. The aura of menace around him made both men instinctively take a step back, clearly startled. Andrew reached out and gently touched the spot where Bonnie had been hit, his expression filled with tenderness. “How do you want her to pay for this?”
