Chapter 52
His eyes widened in disbelief when he met Yvetteâs clear and indignant gaze. She didnât just look like Yvette Snyder; she was. Yvette Snyder!
Tristan had no idea why she was here for the blind date. Before he could come to his senses, Yvette told Ray, âLetâs go.â Ray then
escorted her out of the room.
The man who had been kicked to the ground, Ethan Zamora, was still cursing, âDonât you dare run away! I wonât forget the two of you. Just you wait!â
The other young men mocked him.
âYouâre such a coward, Mr. Zamora. Why didnât you fight back?â
âExactly, stop yapping!â
Ethan had wanted to take a swing at Ray as well, but he hadnât even been able to stand up after Ray had kicked him earlier. He had been pampered all his life and had never been humiliated like this before.
Scrambling to his feet, he cursed under his breath, âIâll round up my men and send them to those two doom right-â
Before he could finish his threat, Tristan walked up to him and looked at him coldly. âWhat did you do to her just now?â
âThat bit-â Ethan started, but before he could finish, Tristanâs bodyguards started punching him in the face. Before long, he was knocked to the ground, spitting blood, and still clueless about what heâd done wrong.

The young men around them were all struck silent. Tristan looked down at Ethan condescendingly and asked Avery, âWhat did he do?â
Avery recounted how Ethan had tried to humiliate Yvette.

âI guess he doesnât need his hands anymore.â Tristan was no longer in the mood to continue the blind dates. He headed out to find Yvette. As he walked away, he could hear Ethan begging for mercy behind him.
The other trust fund kids were in awe; they wondered who that woman was to be worth Tristanâs anger. It seemed like Ethan was going to meet his downfall that day!
When Tristan walked out of Plate & Palette, Yvette was nowhere to be seen. He clenched his fists, regretting how he hadnât taken a good look at the women who had shown up that day.
He had only come to put on a show for Archibald and humiliate the women who wanted to marry into his family, hoping to discourage them from agreeing to blind dates in the future. He hadnât expected

âFind out how Ms. Torres is connected to Yvette.â
Avery hastily responded, âUnderstood.â
Tristan pondered for a moment before adding, âAlso, who was the man beside her?â
Meanwhile, Yvette was already seated in the car. She was a little annoyed, as she hadnât expected Kikiâs blind date to be Tristan.
She was aware that Tristan despised her, and now that heâd seen her standing in for Kiki, she wondered what heâd do to her. Yvette was worried that sheâd gotten Kiki involved in trouble.
âAre you okay, Mom? Zacharyâs voice snapped her out of her thoughts.
Yvette smiled and said, âIâm okay, thanks to Mr. Septer.â

After thanking Ray, Zachary gently hugged Yvette. âItâs a shame that Iâm still too young. When I grow up, Iâll protect you and Mr. Septer.â
Rayâs stern expression softened slightly. Yvette felt a warm current in her heart. âAlright, Mr. Septer and I will wait for you to grow up.â
Yvette was aware that Xavierâs bodyguards were constantly keeping an eye on her, so after she left Plate & Palette, she went straight to Kikiâs villa.
After having lunch and making sure Zachary was settled, Yvette headed out to Titan Corporation to meet Xavier.
