Talented Hairess A Rose with Thorns Novel novel Chapter 40

Chapter 40 

Sure enough, Yasmin’s face darkened instantly. Her pitiful facade nearly cracked. 

“I’m glad you like it, Yvie. I wanted it to be a surprise, but it looks like it got spoiled,” Sean said, trying to ease the tension. 

Yasmin seethed at Sean’s remark that she had ruined Yvette’s surprise. 

Sensing Yasmin’s grievance, Sean tried to console her by saying, “Don’t be upset, Yasmin. I’ll get you something else, alright?” 

How could anything else compare to the crystal plano? 

Yasmin held back her anger as she sobbed, making her look even more fragile and pitiful. She shook her head. “No. It’s okay, Sean. I don’t need any gifts. I don’t want anything.” 

One of the household staff, who was always eager to curry lavor with Yasmin, stepped forward. 

“Ms. Yvette, considering how much Ms. Yasmin loves the piano, maybe you should let her have it. You have no idea how much this crystal piano means to her! 

Yvette’s eyes grow colder at the attempt to guilt trip her. She glared fiercely at the household staff and asked, “Who are you to decide what I should do with my things?” 

The household staff was at a loss for words, and her face peled as she was flustered. 

Yvette averted her gaze. Her calm voice carried an undeniable authority. “Know your place.” 

The waming was clear. It was not only meant for the household staff but also for Yasmin. 

Sensing the underlying threat, Yasmin retorted sarcastically, “Yvie, she was just speaking out of concern for me. Don’t you think you’re overreacting? Sean, can you tell Yvie not to be so sensitive?” 

“vie’s right,” Sean said firmly 

“A household staff member has no say in family matters. Go to the butler, collect your pay, and leave. We don’t need people like you in this house!” 

Sean didn’t think Yvette had done anything wrong. He believed she was completely justified. That was precisely how Yvette should act! He wouldn’t have to worry about her being mistreated anymore. 

Sean’s agreement with Yvette lett Yasmin seething with rage. She couldn’t believe he was siding with Yvette. 

Yasmin suppressed her anger and said, “Sean, she simply misspoke. Isn’t kicking her out a bit too harsh?”
