The loveliest and most obedient girl?
Adam began to picture vague images in his mind and then started to feel nervous.
He was accustomed to life in the military, surrounded mostly by men. Interactions with women were few and far between.
He didnât know how to interact with girls, especially with Yvette, who was much younger than him.
Just how would he win her affection as her brother?
Ada >bed his head in frustration. Then, he cleared his throat and pretended to be nonchalant, though he was actually very concerned. âWhat kind of brother does Yvie like?â he asked.
Sean immediately answered with an air of pride, âYvie likes a brother like me best!â
âNonsense, she clearly prefers a brother like me!â Ashton quickly retorted.
Adamâs expression morphed into disgust as he watched them bicker fiercely. He felt like throwing them out of the car.
Since he couldnât rely on them and Jacob was too sly to reveal what kind of brother Yvette liked, it looked like he would have to figure it out on his own!
Adam buried himself in thought, contemplating how to become the brother Yvette would like and fulfill the role of the brother she loved the most.
Yvette didnât return to the Murray Manor but went to the underground boxing ring.
âWelcome, Master Xev,â Richard greeted her with excessive politeness, while the nervous Jared stood alongside him.
âMaster Xev!â Jared also addressed her respectfully.
Unlike his previous arrogance, Jared was now cowering like a dog. He looked like he was on the verge of kneeling and begging Yvette for mercy.
The brutal beating from his father made him realize what kind of big shot he had offended!
Not only was she the ruler of the underworld, but she was also Wilson Quinnâs fiancée, the âGrim Reaperâ of Jubilife, and the little princess of the Murray family, the richest family in Jubilife!
If she wanted to kill him, she wouldnât even need to lift a finger; a single word from her could make his life worse than death!
The more Jared thought about it, the more frightened he became. His legs gave out, and he fell to his knees with a thud.
âMaster Xev, I was out of my mind before, showing you disrespect like that. I deserve to die a thousand times. You can punish me however you wish; I only beg for you to spare my life!â
Richard quickly joined in, pleading, âMaster Xev, Jared is my only son. Pleaseâgiven my efforts in managing the underworld, though not exceptional, they have been full of hard workâspare my sonâs life. Pleaseâ¦â
âWhat makes you think you have the right to say that?â
Yvetteâs face turned cold. She kicked him in the chest, her voice frosty and intimidating. âWith how youâve managed the underworld, you still have the nerve to speak of hard work?â
âAh!â Richard was heavily kicked to the ground. His face turned pale from the pain, and he almost passed out.
He endured the agony and said, his voice trembling, âMaster Xev, please donât be angry⦠Itâs all my faultâ¦â
âOf course itâs your fault.â Yvetteâs exquisite eyebrows were marked with a hint of malice. She looked extremely formidable.
