Chapter 9
lovin and Yara sumounded Yvette at the Murray Manor. They cupped each side of her cheeks while their voices withered with concem we’ve taught thous people a stem lesson for you. We promise never to let you suffer sach injustice again!”
In the end, the store issued a forinal apology to Yvette. They even fired the manager and stall member, kicking those people out of Tubife City
Yvette didn’t take that all matter to heart and only nodded with a band expression.
Yata continued warmly, “Yvic, this is the dress I specially chose for you to wear at the banquet. I’m sure it’ll look amazing on you, our beautiful
The ficklent at the mall caused them to lose all interest in dress shopping. So, Yara contacted a dress shop and picked out the banquet dresses
“Yasmin, this is the dress chose for you!” Yara didn’t forget about Yasmin. With tender affection, she motioned the latter to come over. “You and Wie should play the plane on stage during the banquet. When that happens, all the ladies of high society will envy me for having such outstanding daughters!”
t dress design but
Yasmin’s expression dulled once she saw a picture of the dress Yara chase. It turned out that Yara had given Yvette the latest dre pave Vasmin a design from last year.
Yasmin felt Yara was utterly biased for doing so
“What’s wrong, Yasmin? Do you not like this dress? I could’ve sworn you’ve always liked this brand, though…” Yara replied.
Yora always had poor health, so she disliked socializing outdoors. She usually preferred gardening and seldom paid attention to things like Lashion. Naturally, she didn’t know clothing was categorized by the latest designs and those from previous seasons,
She only knew Yasmin Bled this brand’s pieces, so she specially picked out this dress for her.
Despite feeling upset, Yasmin flashed a honeyed smile as she hugged Yara’s arms. She put on a deliberate affectionate act in front of Yvette. Thank you, Ait Yara! I love it! We’re so in sync. I was previously eyeing this dress, too!”
She wanted to drill one thing into Yvette’s mind–that she was closer to Yars and train, even if Yvette was the couple’s biological daughter.
Alas, Yvette couldn’t be bothered to spare a glance at Yasmin’s act. Yvette’s lack of interest felt like a cold slap to Yasmin’s face, making her
even more upset.
“I’m happy to hear that!” Yara was pleased with Yasmin’s response. She then tomed to speak to Yvette in a gentle tone. “Oh, right, Yve Your
ith older basher, Sean, is coming home the day alter tomorrow when his Esports toumament enda!”
Yvette’s delicate brows arched when she heard “Esports competition” Then, she nodded. “Alright, I understand.”
Still, Vara went on with the same gentleness “We, Sean can be foolhardy. If he upsets you in any way when he returns, feel free to tell your dad and me about it. I’ll lecture Sean into behaving for you!”
“That’s right!” Irwin joined in, nodding fervently. “vie, I’ll make that heat kneel in front of our family’s memorial hall for forgiveness if he dares to pick on you!”
He refused to let anyone ebully his precious daughter, not even his five sons
Yasmin couldn’t help rolling her eyes when she heard that. Even the corner of her lips slightly curved into an undetectable sneer.
Knowing Sean was about to retum, she was determined to brainston a way to make Sean hate Yvette.
Yvette sat on the couch and played mobile games. She maneuvered her in–game character with her slender fingertips. Her very presence was pleasing to the eye.
Vet, Yasmin immediately glanced at the former with contempt and mentally scoffed. She found Yvette to be an incompetent loser. After all, wasn’t long before the banquet, but Yvette was still in the mood to play mobile games.
Yasmin refused to waste her time like Yvette. Instead, she needed to practice her plano skills. Yasmin wanted to steal the limelight at the banquet and crush Yvette, the bumpkin her family had picked up from the countryside!
Meanwhile, Yvette received a game invite once she was online. She accepted it without much thought. After that, she switched on her inkreptione in the team chat and heard a pleasant, excited male voice.
“Rebir, you’re online again! I have some amazing news to tell you I won the Esports National Championship this year! What do you think? Did I make you proud?” Sean Murray exclaimed.
“That’s pretty gecil, Yvette casually answered. She agreed that winning the national championship was indeed a decent achievement. Sean’s excitement became more noticeable upon receiving Yvetta’s praise. He added, “Rebir, I heard you’re in Jubilife City. I’m going
home
there the day after tomorrow once the competition and
tomorrow once the competition and award ceremony ends. How about we meet after I go home to see my younger sister? “You’re kind of my mentor and contributed to my win at the national championships. I genuinely wish to meet and thank you in person!”
Rebar was a legend in the Esports community. She had incredible gaming skills and won many global competitions. However, she disappeared from the community shortly alter those wins.
Sean once overestimated his talents and challenged Rebir to a match when he was young and reckless. Their player vs player duel ended with her beating him to a pulp
Since then, he became convinced about Rebir’s abilities. He had the utmost respect for Rebir while also fearing her.
“Younger sister?” Yvette asked, astutely picking up on those keywords. She raised a brow and felt a sense of foreboding. She wondered if Sean could be the fifth older brother she had learned about earlier.
“Yeah!” Sean voiced without any careful thought. “We found my long–lost sister, so my parents keep urging me to go home. I’m not that eager to meet her, to be honest. I’m only doing it because my parents insist that I do!”
Although Sean claimed to feel that way, he had already booked the earliest flight back to Jubilife City for the day after tomorrow
He continued, “My mom even insists I prepare a present for her. How annoying! Rebir, since you’re also a woman, what kind of present do you think she’d like?”
The dots were connecting in Yvette’s mind. Helplessness flickered in her coptivating, upturned eyes.
Sean didn’t notice Yvette’s odd behavior. Instead, he kept rambling on. “Oh, forget it. There’s no use in asking you, Rebir. Piligure it out
myself.”
He touched the nearly lined–up gifts on his desk and fell into a conflicted state. He wondered if he should just give all ten of them to his sister
“Women are so troublesome. I’ll act like a tough big brother when I go home. That way, she won’t dare disobey or challenge me She must do everything I say without any objections!”
“Do as he says without any objections?” Yvette wonderod.
She listened in silence as Seen bragged. Once he finished, she stated emotionlessly, “You’ll practice for three more hours today”
“Wait. What? Why? Sean’s features wrinkled into a pained expression at once. His voice took on a yowl as he complained, “Three extra hours, Robir? You’re cruel!”
Amidst his suffering, he wondered what he had said wrong. Why did Rebir punish him with extra gaming practice so suddenly?
Wette tib longer said anything to him. She then went offline and exited the game.
That was when she got a WhatsApp notification.
