Chapter 150
After Daphne hung up, she picked up her phone again and sent Andy her location.
Back at the manor, Kiki removed a hidden camera from nearby.
âYou truly are the best, Yvvy. You knew she wouldnât make a public apology. Thatâs why you asked me to record her apology.â
She played the video recording on her phone. It documented Daphneâs confession, as well as her attempts to bribe Kiki.
âI know her too well. It looks as if she is able to adapt to her circumstances, but she does it all for her own personal gain. Unless she has no other option, she will never choose publicly apologize.â
âIâll upload the video immediately.â Kiki was extremely excited.
However, Yvette stopped her. âDonât. Thereâs no rush. I donât think this is the right time.â
Daphne was at the peak of her popularity right now. Even if they posted the video online, the best it could do was hurt her reputation. If they didnât execute it properly, Kiki might receive backlash as well.
âAnything you say.â Kiki understood Yvetteâs concerns.
Yvette was just about to decide on her next course of action when her phone started ringing. Upon checking, she realized that it was a call from Claude.
âIâm boarding soon, Yvvy. Iâll land in Tirion at 11:00 pm tonight,â His attractive voice rang out from the phone.
âOkay.â
11:00.0m 11:00 pmâ¦.
She wasnât sure if she could pick him up.
On the other end, Claude was gripping his phone and staring at the blue sky. âTomorrowâs your birthday. right?â
She frozeâshe had almost forgotten her own birthday.
Yara had considered Yvetteâs birth a misfortune. Hence, ever since Yvette had moved back in with the Snyders in Tirion, she had never celebrated her birthday
After she had married Xavier, she had spent her birthdays alone. As time had passed, she had ended up not celebrating anymore.
âYeah.
âIâll spend it with you tonight,â he said.
Yvette thought about it before responding. âSure. Iâll come pick you up tonight. Iâm staying at a friendâs place today.â
Upon hearing that, Claude couldnât help but ask, âWould that inconvenience your friend?â
Yvette looked toward Kiki, who had been listening in. The latter swiftly shook her head. âNot at all. He can

come.â
In the last four years, Kiki had only seen Claude from a distance a handful of times. She just thought he was exceptionally goodâlooking. If she had to describe him, she would probably call him the male version
of a temptress.
âShe said itâs okay and asked you to come.â
âAlright then. I need to go now. See you tonight.â
Once Claude hung up the phone, a smile subconsciously made its way toward his face.
A doctor checked on his wound when he boarded the plane. âYou must be careful not to carry out any strenuous activities. Be extremely cautious when you get back to Tirion. If not, the wound might reopen and lead to an infection.â
âWill do.â
He glanced at the clouds outside the window. There was a small, intricate box in his hands. He had never been so excited to see someone before.
Meanwhile, as Yvette got off the phone, she realized she needed to think of something to tell Xavier.
Kiki was unfazed. âJust send him a text. Itâs not like youâre his slave or anything.â
âThatâs true.â
In the past, Xavier had also informed her of his plans via text. He had never asked for her opinion at all. She typed out a message and sent it over.
At Titan Corporationâs main conference room, Xavier was in the middle of a meeting when his phone buzzed. He opened it to find a message from Yvette.
âIâm staying at my friendâs, so I wonât be home tonight.
His expression immediately iced over. He looked absolutely menacing. Everyone in the conference room was worried that they had made a mistake of some kind.
âContinue without me!â Then, Xavier got up and marched out of the room.
