Masked In Nobility: Secrets Of Mrs. Chavez

At the office. Clifford had just returned from the military base and had only taken a few minutes to rest after a meeting. He hadn’t even settled into his chair yet when he got a call from Aurora. This was unusual since she knew he was busy, and she never called him during work hours.

After answering the call, the sound of Aurora’s sobbing made Clifford’s face instantly darken.

Having known Aurora for so many years, Clifford was more aware of her strength than anyone. Aurora had never cried

before.

Clifford’s usual composure was nowhere to be found. He asked urgently, “What’s wrong, sweetheart?”

Looking around at the trembling women opposite her, Aurora said, “Come to the police station,” Then she hung up.

Clifford quickly got dressed, had a car ready, and rushed to the police station. He was nervous the entire way, growing more anxious with each unsuccessful call to Aurora.

At the dessert shop, the deputy chief of the Betrico police station, Darnell, had arrived this time. With an expressionless face, he led over a dozen officers storming into the dessert shop,

As soon as they entered, they spotted Aurora and Yvette coming out of a private room. Their appearance was striking, to say the least, One was someone he knew very well, and the other amazed him with her beauty. It was hard not to notice these two standing together right away. Then he noticed the group of wealthy ladies standing together, looking injured

Darnell immediately put away his serious expression and walked over. He went straight past everyone to stand in front of Aurora. His attitude was pleasant, completely different from how he looked when he first walked in. “Oh my, isn’t this Mrs. Chavez? What brings you here? What’s happening?”

Aurora knew Darnell. She didn’t waste words and told him directly. “Oh. Just a group of gossiping women who unfortunately got caught by me. I went too easy on them. And now you see how it is. No one knows who called the police. Let’s go.”

Darnell could pretty much guess what happened from that. It must have been that the women across had nothing to do and talked badly about Mrs. Chavez. Aurora must have overheard them and beat them up. Darnell glanced at the group of women opposite, and they indeed looked quite beaten up. They either had bald spots, red handprints on their faces, or ripped clothes.

Aurora’s fighting ability was no joke. She took on ten at once.

Darnell found that women could indeed be scary. They couldn’t even open a bottle cap normally. Yet, when it came to fighting, they were all like warriors. No wonder the rumor was that Clifford was henpecked. Now he believed it.

Darnell chuckled. “Mrs. Chavez, I don’t know who was thoughtless enough to call the police over something so minor. How about we handle this privately? After speaking, Darnell glanced over at the group of women. His attitude was noticeably less cordial compared to when he spoke to Aurora, looking very businesslike. He cleared his throat. “Ladies, what do you think? Do you want to settle this privately or publicly? If privately, we can discuss it here. If publicly, please come with me to the police station and have your family members come over to follow the procedure.”

Just as Darnell finished speaking, the women across from him quickly started talking over each other, “Privately. Let’s settle here.”Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

“Yeah, let’s settle it privately. It wasn’t a big deal from the start. No idea who called the cops, busybodies.”

“Yeah, this mess is our fault. We had it coming. Mrs. Chavez did the right thing.”

“Agreed. Let’s keep it private. Don’t bring the families into this. My husband’s really busy these days.”

Except for Eleanore, who was the most injured and remained silent, everyone agreed to settle it privately. Finally, everyone’s

gaze fell on her.

Aurora crossed her arms and said, “Hey, what about you? Do you want to settle it publicly or privately?”

Eleanore bit her lip. She was feeling dizzy and lightheaded. Aurora might have given her a concussion, but she didn’t even dare to pursue it.

Unable to withstand the pressure of everyone’s gaze, Eleanore nodded reluctantly, holding back her resentment. Through gritted teeth, she said, “I agree to settle it privately.”

As expected, everyone was relieved and satisfied.

Aurora was indifferent.

Darnell nodded in satisfaction. If they had gone the official route, he would have had to escort Aurora to the police station. Clifford and Jeremiah wouldn’t be okay with this.

Darnell turned and cautiously asked Aurora again, “Mrs. Chavez, does Mr. Clifford Chavez know about this?”

Aurora gave him a serious look. “Yeah, he knows. He’s probably on his way to the police station by now

The smile froze on Darnell’s face. He said anxiously, “Mrs. Chavez, since the issue’s already been resolved, there’s no need to trouble Mr. Clifford Chavez about it, right?”

Everyone else listened quietly, not daring to say a word.

Aurora cheerfully replied, “Alright. I’ll let him know and tell him to head back.”

Darnell quickly nodded. “Mrs. Chavez, please contact Mr. Clifford Chavez right away.”

Aurora took out her phone and sent a text to Clifford. Seeing this, everyone finally relaxed.

Darnell finally felt at ease and continued speaking, “Mrs. Chavez, since everyone has agreed to settle this privately, do you have any other requests? If not, let’s consider this matter closed.

The women who had been hit felt indignant. Clearly, they were the ones injured, while Aurora was the one making demands. They were dying of frustration but didn’t dare to speak up.

Aurora stared calmly at the women who were beaten and said coldly, “Apologize to Yvette.”

Everyone’s gaze shifted to the girl beside Aurora. It was obvious that the girl was Yvette.

From beginning trend. Yvette stood by Aurora without saying a word, Yet her presence was impossible to ignore. Her cool demeanor and striking appearance were truly uncommon.

Some wealthy ladies were willing to swallow their pride and apologize to Aurora because of the Chavez family and their own status. But they didn’t know Yvette at all, so they weren’t willing to apologize to her.

They all stayed silent, curious to see what Yvette would say. If Yvette was sensible, she should just act as if nothing had happened and let it go.

Her eyes were dark and somber, with her brows slightly furrowed, making it hard to discern her emotions.

She glanced over the crowd, noting their varied expressions. She spoke slowly and calmly towards Yvette. “Pretty lady, they are glaring at me. I’m a little scared because I’m kind of shy.”

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was momentarily taken aback.

Seeing Yvette looking so “fragile” instantly triggered Aurora’s maternal instincts. The words “pretty lady made Aurora overjoyed.

Aurora immediately swooped Yvette under her protection like a mother hen shielding her chick.

Yvette lowered her eyes and noticed Aurora’s movements, a faint hint of a smile in her gaze.

Aurora said, “This won’t end until you apologize. Do what you feel is right.”

The women were still reluctant to back down at this moment. Getting beaten by Aurora wasn’t embarrassing. Apologizing to an unknown girl was truly humiliating.

Right at that moment, the dessert shop door opened again, and the person who walked in left everyone dumbstruck. Even Darnell’s eyes grew wide with disbelief. He wondered, ‘Why is he here? Did someone go and complain to him?” Yvette glanced at the door. Her expression was calm and indifferent. She pressed her lips. Her fingers twitched slightly. Aurora paused for a moment, looking a bit confused, then instantly she dashed towards the door like an arrow released from a bow. Even her 2–inch heels couldn’t slow her wind–like speed.

Amidst everyone’s shocked stares, Aurora stopped in front of the man. She was so excited that she could hardly form words.
