Chapter 41
Rose with Thorns
Chapter 41 âI understand now, Sean,â Yasmin said tearfully as she ran upstairs, though her steps were exceptionally slow. It was evident the hoped Sean would come alter and comfort her.
Unfortunately for her, Seanâs attention was entirely on Yvette, and he didnât notice Yasmin at all.
âYvie, you handled that perfectly. Anytime something like this happens, handle it the same way, and no one will dare to mess with you.
âYouâre my sister, and Iâll protect you. If anyone ever bullies you, just tell me, and Iâll take care of it!â
Seanâs reputation as an influential figure in Jubilife City wasnât for nothing! If anyone dared to mess with Yvette, theyâd have to answer to him.
Seeing his sincerity, Yvette felt a warm surge in her heart. She blinked gently. Maybe sheâd go easy on him today and cut his training short by an hour.
âYvette, Iâm really sorry about what happened this morning,â Sean apologized earnestly.
His handsome face was filled with guilt. âI shouldnât have snapped at you without knowing the full story. I promise I wonât do that again. Can you forgive me this time?â
Feeling his genuine remorse, Yvette smiled softly, and her delicate face lit up with a gentle expression.
âIâve already forgotten about it. And thank you, Sean, I really like the gift.â
Her smile caught Seanâs breath. His heart was melting, and he couldnât help but reach out to ruffle her hair. Yvette was just too sweet and understanding.
Meanwhile, Yasmin seethed with jealousy as she watched the scene untoki from upstairs. Sean had become so kind to Yvette in such a short time. That bitch had to be using some trick!
She couldnât let Yvette continue like this. Yasmin vowed to find a way to win back all their affection.
At that moment, Yvette received several messages on her phone.
âHey Yvie, heard youâre in Jubilite Ciry now. Want to join us at Jubilife University?
âPlease, Yvie. Come to Jubilife University. You can pick any major you like.â
âVvie, youâll be sent to school by the Murrays anyway. Why not come to Jubilife University?â
âVvie, are you really not coming to Jubilife University? Donât make me get on my knees and beg you!â
Yvette sighed and rubbed her temples. She hadnât decided whether to continue her studies yet or which college to attend, for that matter Later that evening, Yasmin had regained her composure, showing no trace of her earlier grievance. She was back to joking and currying lavor with Irwin and Yara to lighten their mood.
Yasmin knew that only by pleasing Irwin and Yara could she secure the most benefits in this house.
âYour short break ends tomorrow, and youâll have to be back to school!â Irwin turned to Yvette with a gentle smile. Sá´aÊ*á´h the FindÉ´ovel.É´et website on Gøøglá´ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
ââYvie, have you thought about which school you want to attend? Just tell me. Iâll make the arrangements,â he added.
Yara smiled and chimed, âYasmin and Sean are both at Jubilife University, Yvie. Do you want to join them there?â
Before Yvette could respond, Yasmin quickly interjected, âIâd be so happy if you came to Jubilife University, Wie. But itâs a top school with strict admission standards. Iâm just worried you might not pass their entrance testâ
Though Yasminâs words sounded concerned, her eyes betrayed a hint of disdain.
With Yvetteâs poor education in the countryside, Yasmin thought it would be impossible for Yvette to get into Jubilite University!
