A Rose 393
Wilson’s usually cold and aloof demeanor had vanished, replaced by a subtle smile highlighting his strikingly handsome features.
Even when not smiling, he was impressive, but his smile made him even more captivating!
Yara found his demeanor charming and couldn’t bring herself to utter a single harsh word.
Upon noticing their softened attitude, Wilson’s expression became serious and earnest. “I’m not sure what made Mr. and Mrs. Murray misunderstand me, but my intentions toward Yvie are sincere. Please feel free to test me.”
Not only was Wilson strikingly handsome, but he also spoke in a comforting manner. Despite their earlier coldness toward him, he remained unaffected.
Could their concerns about him and Victoria Olson be based on a misunderstanding?
Yara and Irwin exchanged a look, realizing they needed to investigate the matter further.
Standing aside and observing them, Samuel couldn’t help but silently admire Wilson’s skill. He had significantly softened Irwin and Yara’s initial hostility in a short time.
“Mom! Dad!”
Jacob hurried back from the office as soon as he learned that Wilson was at Murray Manor.
Upon entering and hearing Wilson’s comments, he scoffed in disdain, thinking, “So, this old scoundrel has come to win favor with my parents? I won’t let him get his way so easily!”
“Mom, Dad, I know you both love antiques and plants, so I specifically bought some at an auction abroad just for you. You don’t need to accept anything from others.”
Yesterday, Wilson had outbid him on items Jacob had set his sights on. In response, Jacob purchased a selection of even more valuable antiques and plants and had them airlifted overnight. They had just arrived. Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
As he spoke, Jacob signaled for Larry to bring in the items.
Yara and Irwin were visibly surprised and delighted.
“Oh, this is exactly what I’ve been wanting! Jacob, you’re so thoughtful!”
“I’ve been searching for this series of Victorian vases, and with this one, I’ll finally have the complete set. You’re truly a wonderful son!”
Wilson’s deep–set eyes narrowed dangerously as he tightly clenched his jaw.
Jacob was ruining his plans once again! If it weren’t for Jacob being Yvette’s elder brother, Wilson would really like to teach him a lesson.
Jacob smirked provocatively, making it clear he wasn’t giving Wilson any chance to win favor with his parents.
“Wilson, you can leave now if you have no other business here. And be sure to take your things with you!” “The gifts have already been given to Mr. and Mrs. Murray, so there’s no reason to take them back,” Wilson replied, his gaze dropping slightly.
He then added in a gentle tone, “It seems Jacob isn’t very welcoming of my visit. If Mr. and Mrs. Murray will excuse me, I’ll take my leave and visit another time”
Yara, unable to hold back, scolded Jacob with a frown. “What’s wrong with you? A guest is a guest. You shouldn’t treat him so badly!”
That damned schemer!
Jacob gritted his teeth in frustration. Not only was Wilson putting on an act in front of Yvette, but now he was also playing the part in front of his parents.
