Talented Hairess A Rose with Thorns Novel novel Chapter 4

Chapter 4

Yvette thought of Wilson’s charming and seductive smile. Her long lashes fluttered slightly as her slender finger tapped on the prompt to accept his request.

“Stay safe on your way back. Let me know when you get home,” came his message.

Yvette didn’t reply, her expression unchanged as she put her phone back into her pocket.

Inside the car, Wilson glanced at the message he sent her that was left on read.

He wore a captivating smile as he thought of Yvette as quite the aloof person.

Samuel watched that scene from the rearview mirror. His thoughts were racing as he finally understood what happened.

The reason Wilson played along with that girl’s act was to get her contact information.

He realized that Wilson was cunning for tricking an innocent girl like that! That said, Samuel had never seen Wilson that interested in anyone before. Could it be that he had taken a liking to that girl?

The more he thought about it, the more convinced he was.

That girl looked barely 18, and Wilson said he wouldn’t act like a monster!

It was a complete turnabout, an ironic slap in the face.

…

The next morning, Yvette heard a sweet and coy voice coming from downstairs as soon as she stepped out of her bedroom.

“Uncle Irwin, Aunt Yara, it’s already so late. Why hasn’t Yvie woken up yet?”

The girl continued, “Yvie must be sleeping soundly. I was worried she wouldn’t be able to rest well in a new environment, but it seems she’s adapting to it just fine!”

The sarcasm in her tone was obvious. Yvette smirked and began walking down the stairs with her long legs.

“I specifically told everyone not to disturb Yvie. She just returned yesterday, and there’s no harm in letting her rest a bit longer,” Yara spoke gently.

When she saw Yvie coming down the stairs, her pale face lit up with a radiant smile.

“Yvie, you’re awake! Come with me. I don’t know what’s your favorite food, so I had the kitchen prepare a little of everything. Try them out and see which ones you like!”

Irwin quickly joined in, his voice filled with warmth. “That’s right, Yvie. Sit down and let’s have breakfast!”

Their attention was entirely on Yvette. Yasmin, who was standing nearby, was left ignored.

Upon seeing Yara and Irwin showering Yvette with affection, a flash of jealousy crossed Yasmin’s eyes.

Yasmin was a relative of the family. After her parents passed away, Yara and Irwin raised and treated her like their own daughter.

With Yvette out of the picture until recently, Yasmin had five older brother figures who loved her, making her the center of everyone’s attention.

But now that Yvette was back, she had stolen Yara and Irwin’s affection from Yasmin. Soon, Yvette would be taking her brothers’ love away from her too.

Yasmin would no longer be the only one doted on in the family!

Yasmin bit her lip in resentment, wishing that Yvette had never been found and never returned to take what was Yasmin’s in the first place.

She forced down her jealousy and spoke warmly, “Welcome home, Yvie. You must have had a tough time all these years.”

Upon hearing her voice, Yara and Irwin remembered Yasmin’s presence and quickly introduced her to Yvette.

“This is your cousin, Yasmin.” As Yvette’s porcelain-like face met her gaze, Yasmin’s envy deepened, though she maintained her innocent facade.
