Masked In Nobility: Secrets Of Mrs. Chavez

“Mr. Sunderland, it’s nothing serious. Just now, Yvette and her friend couldn’t find a seat, so I invited her to sit with me Suddenly, this girl. Ruby Scott, came in and accused my daughter without knowing anything. Who is she to accuse my daughter when she’s just a nobody?” Zachary said.

Ruby, who had been frozen in place, turned pale after hearing Zachary’s words. In that situation, she could only keep her head down. She couldn’t figure out what went wrong.

Didn’t Winona claim that Yvette wasn’t favored by her father in the Chambers family? And that’s why Yvette was kicked out? It seems like Winona deceived me. If what she claimed was right, why would Zachary step up for Yvette in a place like this, disregarding his status Ruby pondered.

Ruby despised not only Yvette but also Winona. She kept her head down, not daring to say a word. At that moment, Ruby caught a glimpse of Andrew’s figure, steadily walking toward her,

Ruby, who was feeling dejected moments before, saw a ray of hope. ‘Is he here for me? Is he my prince charming, here to save me in my time of need? she wondered. Her heart pounded, and her pale face began to turn red

Jaiden, Nellie, Rebecca, and the other students in the auditorium kept an eye on Andrew. Everyone expected him to be Ruby’s knight in shining armor. Only Simon, Zachary, and Bordie, who was clasping her hands, knew Andrew wasn’t there to help Ruby.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Everyone thought Andrew was heading toward Ruby. Nellie and Rebecca eagerly awaited the outcome of Yvette’s fate, expecting a good show. Jaiden remained uninvolved, staying neutral in the situation. He was over 70 years old and had no intention of mocking a young girl he didn’t know..

Andrew stopped in front of Ruby, who looked up excitedly and asked, “Mr. Mitchell, are you here for me” However, Andrew walked past Ruby before she could finish her sentence and approached Yvette, who was behind her. Ruby’s eyes widened in disbelief. She just stood there, watching Andrew walk toward Yvette. “Impossible…”

Yvette leaned against the wall, her gaze as cold and indifferent as ever. Her stunningly beautiful face remained expressionless, unresponsive to Andrew’s approach. Andrew was used to Yvette’s occasional cold demeanor, just like Jeremiah. He was more used to it than anyone.

Andrew rubbed his chin, ignoring the stares from everyone around, and piped up in a playful tone, “Come on, let’s sit together. You better not turn me down. Someone has ordered me to take care of you.” He had a cheeky grin on his face.

Yvette’s expression changed subtly, and an expression that others couldn’t read flashed across her fair face. The next moment, she returned to her usual indifferent expression.

After speaking with Yvette, Andrew turned to face Bonnie, who was cowering in a corner, counting on her fingers. Where’s the usual boldness she showed around me? She looked completely helpless!” he wondered. “Come over here, Bonnie. Sit

with us.”

When Bonnie heard Andrew call her, she looked up to see everyone’s eyes on her. She suddenly grew nervous. ‘Oh my gosh. I’m not Yve, who could remain calm in every situation. This is the first time I’ve received this much attention from so many people,’ she mused.

Bracing herself, Bonnie shouted, “I’m coming!” She shouted with all her might to conceal her nervousness, and her voice echoed through the auditorium. Blushing, Bonnie bolted over to Andrew and Yvette’s side hurriedly.

Simon was dumbfounded, wondering what was going on. He didn’t know much about Ruby, the student council president. Normally, Patrick handled any dealings with her. But now, seeing how unreliable she was, Simon felt that she was impulsive and impatient.

With a stern expression, Simon furrowed his brow, making it clear to everyone that he was displeased-Without raising his voice, he said with dignity, “Ruby, didn’t I instruct the student council to reserve several seats!”

When Ruby heard her name, she didn’t have time to dwell on her previous humiliation and dashed over to Simon, answering respectfully, “Mr. Sunderland, we’ve reserved a few seats for you. It’s in the front row, right beside yours”

Simon glanced at Ruby, then at Yvette. His face remained stern, and his voice was cold, full of authority. “Ruby, as president of the student council, why didn’t you prepare a seat for Yvette, who is a participant in the competition?”

Andrew let out a sarcastic snort. “Isn’t it obvious? She did it deliberately”

Ruby’s expression turned gloomy as she looked around. She thought Andrew was there to help her, but he was actually Yvette’s ally, and he was now mocking her. ‘Yvette’s relationship with her father wasn’t as strained as I expected. Now, even Mr. Sunderland is publicly questioning me on her behalf. Why does she have so many people supporting her?’ Ruby wondered

Ruby regained her composure. The situation was unfavorable to her, and the only way out was to play the victim. Her eyes reddened as if she were about to cry. Her tactic worked. Some of the students around her began to sympathize.

“Mr. Sunderland, the issue with Yvette’s seat was a mistake by the student council. I’m sorry,” Ruby apologized. Then, she turned to Yvette and said. “I’m sorry.” She had learned how to use reverse psychology to her benefit. Those around her sympathized with her actions and spoke up for her.

“I think Ruby’s pitiful. It’s normal to overlook small things like this,”

“Yeah, they don’t need to be so harsh.”

“Exactly. She’s just a girl. It’s not easy for her too.

Simon also felt troubled. As the principal, making a student cry would be disastrous if word got out. Furthermore, because Ruby had already apologized, he couldn’t take the matter any further. “All right. This was an oversight by the student council. I hope you learn from your mistake and don’t repeat it again, Simon uttered.

Ruby nodded and purposefully wiped her eyes with her sleeve, her voice trembling with emotion. “Understood, Mr. Sunderland.

Next, Simon smiled gently at Yvette, expressing kindness. His expression changed almost instantly. “Yvette, come sit with me. I’ve reserved a seat for you in the front row. Your friend can join us too.”

The auditorium fell silent. Bonnie was almost certain that Simon was referring to her. It was another lucky break in her life,

Jaiden, who was obstructed by the crowd, was surprised by Simon’s attitude toward Yvette, which differed significantly from how he treated Ruby. He had known Simon for many years. Simon had never been so courteous to anyone, let alone a student. Thus, Jaiden was certain that something was off.

Ruby kept her head down, her fingernails digging deeply into her palm, almost into her flesh. So the seat Mr. Sunderland had reserved was actually for Yvette. The front row is where all the top figures in Seacrity would be seated. What right does Yvette have to sit there?’ she thought.

But, in front of those people, Ruby didn’t have the right to speak her mind. She had no choice but to remain silent and keep everything to herself. The atmosphere became subtle. Zachary, Andrew, and Simon all wanted Yyette to sit next to them

Everyone wondered whether Yvette would choose Zachary, Simon, or the mysterious man who had come with Simon. Everyone was waiting for Yvette’s response.

“Sorry, I was delayed due to an incident.” Another voice suddenly rang out from the auditorium entrance.
