Terrence was shocked. He didn’t understand why Tristan would suddenly speak for Yvette when the latter had hated her so much in the past.
However, he reacted quickly and immediately said, “Alright! Got it! She’s my sister, and I’ll make sure to respect her now.”
Tristan only got up after that, and he asked, “What did you say about needing her to meet Jeremiah so that he would help you?”
Terrence was afraid of Tristan, so he told him everything about how he’d gone to see Jeremiah and what the latter had said a few days ago. Tristan silently listened to everything Terrence said, and was confused.
“Does Jeremiah know Yvette?”
“I think so. Otherwise, why would he possibly say that?” Terrence didn’t know what was going on as well.
The Snyder family and the Lane family had been close in the past. He remembered how Yvette would secretly write love letters to Xavier in her room back then. When he’d discovered it, they’d been shredded. Suddenly, Tristan felt as if he had unintentionally found out something huge. He wanted to ask more about it when someone approached him.
“Tris, what are you doing?” It was Quentin.
When Tristan saw him, he immediately said to Terrence, “Do not tell anyone about what happened today. Otherwise, I’ll pull your tongue out! Now, get out of here!” Terrence hurriedly scurried away.
Quentin had already arrived at Tristan’s side in his neat-looking suit. “Why are you here at Empire Club? It’s been a while since you last went to Sternhow Club.”
Empire Club and Sternhow Club were both located in Tirion and belonged to Quentin.
“I was just in the area. Are you still working at this hour instead of being with your wife, Quentin?” Tristan was worried that Quentin would ask about Terrence, so he changed the topic.
Although he was on good terms with Quentin and Xavier, he’d never really knew Quentin too during these years. He always thought the man was hiding a lot from them. So, he figured it was better if Quentin didn’t know too much about Terrence and Yvette.
“I did go back earlier. Since she’s pregnant, her temper is unstable,” Quentin said with a long face. Then, he saw Terrence running away and getting into a car.
When the car left, he took out his
phone and called someone. Meanwhile, he said gently, “Since you’re pregnant, you should play nice. You don’t want me to send you back to Sternhow Club, right?”
After Quentin left, Tristan told Xavier everything that had happened that day. The latter had already returned home. When he heard what Tristan said, he leaned back into his hair and looked cold.
After Yvette was done eating, she went out for a walk to digest better. When Xavier heard the footsteps and someone humming a tune outside, he grabbed a coat and went out
“Why are you here?” She was curious when she saw him coming out. He followed her voice and walked to her. Then, he wrapped the coat around her shoulders. “It’s too cold outside, so don’t catch a cold.”
“It’s fine.” She waved her hand. She was in a bad mood that day because of Terrence, so she wanted to clear her mind.
“In that case, let me walk with you.”
Then, Xavier grabbed her hand right away, which was cold. He couldn’t help frowning. “Why is your hand so cold?”
Just as Yvette was about to pull her hand back, he added, “Hold my hand. I can’t see anything.”
So, she had no choice but to let him hold her hand. It felt like that was the first time they were walking together while holding hands.
“How were you today?” he tried asking.
Yvette had no one to vent her frustration. Thinking that he had lost his memories, she told him what Terrence had told her about Yara being with someone else long ago.
She didn’t mention Jeremiah at all; she only saw what happened with him as a misunderstanding. It was all in the past now.
