Chapter 36
Rose with Thorns
Chapter 36 âI owe you an apology, Yvette. I messed up last night. I shouldnât have dragged you along for drinks...â Collin sald Yvette brushed it off by shaking her head casually. âItâs no big dealâ
Collin sighed in relief when he saw that Yvette wasnât holding it against him. Thank goodness she was easygoing and didnât bear grudges. Otherwise, Wilson would have to straighten him out!
Feeling relieved, Collin couldnât help but blurt out, âBut seriously, Yvette, you were wild as hell when you were drunk-â
Before he could finish, Wilsonâs ley glare silenced him once more.
Hearing this, Yvette asked eamestly, âWas I really that uncontrollable when drunk?â
Collin was about to argue that her definition of uncontrollable differed from realityâshe was downright ferocious when drunk!
But then, Wilson chuckled softly. His tone was smooth and unhurried. âYou were surprisingly wellâbehaved, even when drunk.â
Collin was stunned. How did Wilson manage to say that?! Wellâbehaved, my ass! His butt still hurt from her kick!
âHave you eaten lunch? Wilsonâs gentle question made Yvette shake her head honestly. âNot yet...â
Wilsonâs deep, sparkling eyes held an inexplicably charming joy. âThen let me treat you to something?â
Wilson had that irresistibly charming look again!
Yvette was initially hesitant as she was worried that Sean would come to pick her up and not find her. But for some reason, she nodded after meeting Wilsonâs gaze.
âWilson, I havenât eaten lunch yet either. Iâll join you guys...â As Collin space, he turned to see Wilson walking away with Yvette, completely ignoring him.
Collin chuckled in exasperation. Wilson was something else. It Wilson could ditch him for a crush to this extent, he wouldnât hesitate to snitch!
Martha had been bugging him lately to find out who Wilson liked. Now, seeing that Wilson didnât even invite him for lunch, heâd rat him out to Martha in a heartbeat!
âYasmin, why did Mr. Quinn come looking for you?â
Yasmin basked in the socialitesâ envy to flatter her vanity. But in truth, Wilsonâs cold demeanor actually left her feeling uneasy Sho put on a shy facade. âOh, it was nothing. Please, stop asking me about it!â
âMr. Quinn paid 87 million dollars for you, Yasmin. Be honest with us. Are you two dating?â
Yasminâs face flushed even redder. âNo, thatâs ridiculous. Mr. Quinn is just being kind to me out of consideration for the Murray family!â
Despite her denial, her demeanor hinted that they might not be dating now but perhaps in the future...
